Soundtrack available magnatune.com Air on the G String: Bach’s timeless work, performed on original instruments by Voices of Music and accompanied by a montage of the most beautiful images of deep space. Visit us at www.voicesofmusic.org for more videos and concert information. Featuring Elizabeth Blumenstock and Katherine Kyme, baroque violins; Lisa Grodin, baroque viola, Joanna Blendulf, baroque cello; William Skeen, violone; Hanneke van Proosdij, chamber organ; David Tayler, theorbo. Every effort has been made to recreate the original ensemble that performed this piece. This includes using the original violins, viola, cello, baroque organ with German style pipes and wind chest, as well as the strings and baroque bows. A characteristic pitch of 415.3 Hz was chosen which is lower than the modern Concert pitch of 440Hz. This pitch favors the colors of the baroque strings and Continuo. Bowing patterns, articulation, trills and ornamentation are all based on German 17th century performance practice.

I like different kinds of music. And I listened to Vanessa-Mae and Maksim Mrvica a few days ago. I think it’s a great way to use modern rhythms, noisy drums and guitars in classical music. What do you reckon?
Thank you for listening!

We are looking for a slow song, classical without vocal, that has bells ringing in it. Preferably chime-like bells, but ‘church-type’ bells are ok also. And please, no Christmas music! This is for a wedding.

How are Mozart’s operas important to society? I really need help with this for my senior interdisciplinary project. I need to know for both modern day society and society during the 18th Century. Any information would be great thanks.
