Out of This World Things, Or Not? What Do You Think?

Would you ever have said that initial "pedal point" was an ideal subject for a fugue? ... and yet

... one of the very first examples of variation

It had been a lifetime since I last listened to it, thank you

What can I say, one day (very far in the future) I will discover it

But once I found a maxim that said

"Perhaps when the angels in their assembly glorify God they play Bach. But I am certain that in their intimacy they play Mozart."

(Karl Barth)

e a friend reminded me that ... "God knows it"

... unfortunately for me, I am one of those who votes for Bach, but I will repent

as usual, if you don't speak ill of someone else, you just can't enjoy music...

I knew it like this: when God has guests he puts on Mozart, while when he is alone he listens to Bach (I would say “plays Bach”)

Thank you Zedef ... are you telling me that I am going to heaven?

I don't think human creativity needs supernatural justifications...

Anyway, it is wonderful music.
