thank you Ann - arguably the best of the Welsh male choirs - toured all over the world, USA, Australia, New Zealand, Russia, Canada, Europe and the UK

Lawrence had a wonderful time with them

"Thorens turntable and a Cambridge Audio amp."

"Without music life would be a mistake."

Nice.

I get goose bumps when I hear the theme tune to the t.v series "The World at War"

Song from childhood that bought tears to my eyes was. "Scarlet Ribbons" It can still bring a lump to my throat.
I will have to trot of to youtube to find them.

Rollo - "Without music life would be a mistake." Nice.

One of my all time favourite quotes is by Fritz Lang: “To begin with, I should say that I am a visual person. I experience with my eyes and never, or only rarely, with my ears - to my constant regret.”

It's been a pleasure sharing your favourite pieces... I have actually been going through and listening to unfamiliar music AND familiar also. I can always now
reach a lovely selection easily!!

Just picking up on something Jem said. Defiitely don't write off Nicole Scherzinger, I have just listened to her recent singing of Memories on you tube, Such a beautiful voice.

Thank you Errol.

Reading this through made me realise just how much music I do like. I'll have to have another listen to some of the ones mentioned. Has anyone mentioned Samuel Barber's Adaggio for Strings?

that's a beauty Vera
