i adore this man and this music – what a wonderful world if i listen to this back to back for a bit it REALLY helps!
and a bit of satchmo and ella – summertime!
for a different summertime version. i enjoy heifetz playing i think he had a really light touch with the violin – ideally suited for gershwin, as really easy to be overly indulgent with the music – singers get away with it, the violin doesn’t! He arranged a fair number of gershwin’s pieces, and was particularly good at sounding like 2 violins! a violin hero of mine – click through some of the other links!
this also helps – i believe it is also a favourite of Jax – somewhere over the rainbow
anyone else needing a chillpill and a musical rescue remedy?
See I would – but madam always has the telly on whilst I’m bloghopping and grumbles about me having the sound on the computer.
And then I never remember to listen when she’s gone to bed. Will make more effort tonight.
musical rescue remedy always welcome and Eva Cassidy indeed a family favourite – Small’s baby music (the last song we listened to before he was born, mainly because after the second time through I was otherwise occupied and didn’t set it going again )
You’ve got one of Tim’s faves there too.
‘course then someone else is trying to watch the news.
I love Summertime. Makes me feel happy and sad at the same time somehow.
giggle at michelle – i would play anyway!!
so tim, which is it – its SB’s reach isn’t it!!
t-bird, i also like the violin version of summertime – must search it out, it’ll prob be on utube!
He’s walked past me sighing and being exasperated but won’t let me turn the tv off.
