  • #ClassicsaDay #Classical1921 Week 2

    What better way to celebrate a new year than with a look back? In this case, the Classics a Day team decided to go back 100 years. For January 2021 the challenge is to post works that were completed in or recordings released in 1921. It turns out there was quite a lot going on […]

  • #ClassicsaDay #ClassicalQuartet Week 5

    April is the fourth month of the year. And so the Classics a Day team decided to make classical quartets this month’s theme. One could easily fill up a month of postings with nothing but great string quartets. But I decided to explore further. A piano trio is made up of four musicians. So is […]

  • #ClassicsaDay #ClassicalChristmas Week 3

    This marks the third year running that the Classics a Day team made Christmas music the December theme. I guess that makes it a tradition. When it comes to the music of the season, there’s plenty to choose from. Since the 1100s composers have written sacred music for Advent and Christmas — and plenty of […]

  • #ClassicsaDay #ClassicalEleven Week 4

    Nov 29th, 2019 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: Arnold Schoenberg, David Conte, Heitor Villa-Lobos, Igor Stravinsky, Louis Spohr

    Numbers have meaning. But meaning can depend on context. The Classics a Day team made “eleven” the theme for November, the eleventh month. The challenge is to post performances of classical music that involve the number. I chose a mix. Some pieces involve eleven players. Some are the eleventh type of piece by a composer. […]

  • #ClassicsaDay #ArmisticeClassics Week 2

    November 19, 2018, is the 100th anniversary of the Armistice that ended the First World War. The #ClassicaDay team asked participants to post classical works related to the conflict. For my part, I tried to find examples from both sides of the war, and from as many different countries as possible. Here are my posts […]

  • #ClassicsaDay #FamousLastWorks Week 1

    Oct 5th, 2018 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: #ClassicsaDay, #FamousLastWorks, Arnold Schoenberg, Classical music, Franz Joseph Haydn, Franz Schubert, Ludwig van Beethoven, Twitter, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

    For the month of October, the #ClassicsaDay team (of which I’m a part), decided to go with a Halloween theme. The idea is to share works marked in some way with the composer’s demise. It can be the last piece a composer completed before death, or one left incomplete at death. For my part, I […]
