Re: Your favourite song at the moment..
I just came upon this, and I've never heard Ravel playing his own compositions. It's funny to me how modern pianists argue and bicker over how a piece from the past should or shouldn't be played. Listening to how the actual composer plays a piece it's fascinating to me in how it illuminates the stupidity and pointlessness of human intellectual projection. I guarantee you any modern critic would find all kinds of flaws and inaccuracies with this play-through if they were ignorant of the actual player.

That was the official reason given, though it was widely suspected that it was in retaliation for the track '51st State'. | |||||||||||

"In a less scientific age, he would have been a devil-worshipper, a partaker in the abominations of the Black Mass; or would have given himself to the study and practice of sorcery. His was a religious soul that had failed to find good in the scheme of things; and lacking it, was impelled to make of evil itself an object of secret reverence."
~ Clark Ashton Smith, "The Devotee of Evil" |
