Bon Bon Dish
A fun question (a la Alberich)…if you were to suddenly be unable to listen to your favorite classical pieces?
for a long time (loss of hearing , marooned on an island w/o your Ipod), what would you have wanted your last “musical meal” to be like. Give me an appetizer, a main course, a side dish (for the really hungry 2), a salad, a dessert and a beverage – pieces that you would want to be able to hear in your mind for a long time – and none of the titles have to have anything to do with food, just your pick of a well rounded musical plate.
Bon appetit !!
You do me much honor, Bearcat(I think-?).
(1) appetizer: I love shrimp cocktails – “Overture to the Flying Dutchman.
(2) main course: no surprise to anyone, I’m sure – “Der Ring des Nibelungen”(lots of meat there).
(3) side dish(one would really have to be ravenous) – Camille Saint-Saens “Carnival of the Animals”.
(4) salad: love salads; often have them as the main course – “The Walk to the Paradise Garden” from Frederick Delius’s “A Village Romeo and Juliet”(haven’t listened to this in a long, long time):

(5) dessert: love Chocolate Fondue – Tchaikovsky’s “Serenade for Strings”.
(6) beverage: always have coffee; like to have a pot full sitting on the table. But love an alcoholic beverage too; my favorite? A double extra-dry Martini with a half-dozen good olives. What’s one of the most famous “drinks” in classical music? You guessed it: the love potion in “Tristan und Isolde”; so I’ll conclude my meal with the “Liebestod”.
