In 1954 Philips—a Dutch electronics company—started releasing classical works as 10 inch albums with laminated cardboard covers in the Favourites-Series. This series is different from the 12 inch series launched in 1956 featuring the cover photography by Paul Huf.

This is such a gorgeous piano piece. Nostalgic, evocative. I want this at my funeral.
Ravel is wonderful. I won’t look into his life because like all men, I’m sure he was a raging misogynist who probably thought women shouldn’t compose music. Like Mendelssohn, another favorite of mine who thought that his sister Fanny, an incredibly talented musician and composer, should not publish any of her music and focus solely on her housewife duties.
This has soured his music for me. Fucking asshole.
But anyway you should cry at funerals even if you barely knew the deceased and picking the right music is crucial.

Cover art of Ravel’s Pavane pour une infante défunte (1900)
Pavane pour une infante défunte (Pavane for a Dead Princess) is a work for solo piano by Maurice Ravel. It was written in 1899 while the French composer was studying at the Conservatoire de Paris under Gabriel Fauré. Ravel dedicated the Pavane to his patron, the Princesse de Polignac.
It was first published by Eugène Demets in 1900. In 1910 Ravel published an orchestral version with two flutes, an oboe, two clarinets, two bassoons, two horns, harp and strings.

Hahaha! omg no I’m not hiding anything! I just don’t interact much with people or posts other than sometimes liking, so my blog is left empty:). I liked you and your writing, so I really had to comment and talk with you, you're very intriguing! :)
And I do in-fact write! Only for myself and family, I’m too shy to actually post. I mostly have just been doing poetry lately!
I’m glad we have the same thoughts about knowledge! I love pursing knowledge in almost everything I can, even if it’s just a little bit, I just want to be so knowledgeable that people immediately think of me whenever they have questions about anything! Like an encyclopedia! So far I’m succeeding :)
I didn’t know you knew classical pieces!! I love Swan lake by Tchaïkovski I also love his The nutcracker piece, another favourite of mine would probably be Dies Irae! Do you have any other classical piece that you like or even recommend? I’m trying to find more pieces to listen to! Ah! My apologies I rambled off again, I’m quite excited, I haven’t met/seen anyone with similar interests to me!
Intriguing, why?
I'd love to read you.
I took the time to gather some classical music that I really like. I have classified them in alphabetical order and starting with the name of the artist because they are often more telling than the title of the piece itself.
Classical music recommendations:
Bach Jean-Sébastien - Toccata and Fugue in D minor
Chopin Frédéric - Prelude op. 28 n24 in D minor ❤️
Chostakovitch Dmitri - Jazz Suite, Waltz No. 2 ❤️
Grieg Edvard - Peer Gynt Suite No.1 ❤️
Haendel Georg Friedrich - Sarabande
Kalinnikov Vasily - Symphony No 1.
Lully Jean-Baptiste - Marche pour la cérémonie des Turcs
Mussorgsky Modeste - Night on Bald Mountain
Offenbach Jacques - Can Can Music
Prokofiev Sergei - Peter and the Wolf
Rachmaninoff Sergueï - Piano Concerto #2 in C Minor, Op. 18 ❤️
Ravel Maurice - Ma mère l'Oye ❤️
Ravel Maurice - La Pavane pour une infante défunte
Rossini Gioachino - William Tell Overture: The Storm ❤️
Saint-Saëns Camille - Le Carnaval des animaux : Aquarium
Tchaikovsky Piotr Ilitch - Swan Lake ❤️
Van Beethoven Ludwig - Symphony No 7 A-Dur, op 92
Verdi Guiseppe - Requiem 1 - Dies irae, Libera me ❤️
Vivaldi Antonio - Concerto for Mandolin in C Major RV425
I also really like movie and video game soundtracks! I have a lot of tracks if you're interested. By the way, would you like to share some songs that you like? :)

Fun touhou music facts time!
youtube
The song "Septette for the dead princess" from the 6th game has multiple random references to classical music. The main melody is directly taken from the third movement of Beethoven's 8th sonata (note the Touhou version is not pitched to A=440hz).
This in itself is a fascinating little motif used here. But it isn't the only interesting reference in this piece. For those familiar with Ravel you might have already noticed, but the name of the piece is almost certainly a reference to "Pavane pour une infante défunte", "Pavane for a dead princess" in English.
I'm sure people have already commented on this in the past given the game is about 20 years old now but it's still fascinating to me that you can find these sorts of references in touhou music.

Hoy se publica el primer single del álbum "Pavane pour une infante défunte" de Ravel.

Escucha el adelanto AQUÍ
Sumino es un fenómeno artístico excepcional: Conocido como "Cateen", cuenta con más de 1,5 millones de seguidores en todo el mundo a través de sus plataformas y casi 200 millones de visitas en YouTube hasta la fecha. Su participación en el Concurso Internacional Chopin 2021, donde llegó a las semifinales, causó sensación y obtuvo más de 8,5 millones de visitas en YouTube. En abril de 2024, hizo un espectacular debut en el Royal Albert Hall con su interpretación de "Rhapsody in Blue" de Gershwin, consiguiendo captar la atención tanto en Internet como en la sala de conciertos.
“Human Universe” revela las dotes polifacéticas de Sumino en una variada selección de obras que abarcan desde Bach, Haendel, Purcell, Chopin, Fauré y Debussy hasta compositores cinematográficos emblemáticos como Hans Zimmer y Ryuichi Sakamoto, así como composiciones y arreglos propios de Sumino. La grabación muestra su estilo distintivo, que fusiona a la perfección su refinada técnica clásica con el oído perspicaz de un arreglista y un talento excepcional para la improvisación.
Compositor prodigioso, Hayato Sumino posee un estilo único y fascinante que combina sin esfuerzo sus diversos intereses musicales, que van desde la música clásica y el jazz hasta la música de cine, la post-clásica y la electrónica. También es muy demandado para componer partituras de cine y TV en Japón, y se está ganando rápidamente un lugar como uno de los principales miembros de la próxima generación de músicos para los que las fronteras de género simplemente no son un obstáculo.

An ode to my one true love and muse. My true flame in the darkest of nights forever pulling me out of steep foreboding wells of sadness. Neverending love, trust, and devotion for all that she is and all that she will blossom into. She sees everything through me like a looking glass. Every thought unsaid and word unspoken. A truly magnificent woman she is.
