  • #ClassicsaDay #ClassicalChristmas Week 1

    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 […]

    Tags: #ClassicalEleven, #ClassicsaDay, Dominico Scarlatti, Franz Schubert, George Fridrich Handel, Henry Cowell, Muzio Clementi, Twitter

    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 #ClassicalAutumn Week 5

    Nov 1st, 2019 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: #ClassicalAutumn, #ClassicsaDay, Cécile Chaminade, Edward MacDowell, Franz Schubert, Robert Schumann, Twitter

    In 2019 the Classics a Day team has been making its way through the seasons. We’ve had Classical Winter (January), Classical Spring (April), and Classical Summer (August). For October, we complete the cycle with Classical Autumn. I tried to steer clear of the really obvious choices (like Vivaldi’s “Four Seasons”). In the process, I managed […]
