If ever the famous Big Bang from which everything originated had needed music to accompany it, it probably would have been such a stunning piece.

Thanks. I really like Mendelssohn. What a travesty that he wasn't played in Germany for decades.Quote:

Translation in English
In the slums, in the Senate
Dirt in every corner
Nobody respects the Constitution
But everybody believes in the nation's future
What country is this?
What country is this?
What country is this?
In the Amazonas, in the Araguaia, in the Baixada Fluminense
In Mato grosso, in Minas Gerais and in the Northeast it's just peace
In death I rest but the blood runs loose
Staining the papers, faithful documents
For the boss's rest
What country is this?
What country is this?
What country is this?
What country is this?
It's anything but Third World
A joke overseas
But Brazil will get rich
We'll bill a million
When we sell all the souls
Of our natives in an auction
What country is this?
What country is this?
What country is this?
What country is this?

Original Lyrics
Nas favelas, no senado
Sujeira pra todo lado
Ninguém respeita a constituição
Mas todos acreditam no futuro da nação
Que país é esse?
Que país é esse?
Que país é esse?
No Amazonas, no Araguaia, na Baixada fluminense
No Mato grosso, Minas Gerais e no Nordeste tudo em paz
Na morte eu descanso mas o sangue anda solto
Manchando os papéis, documentos fiéis
Ao descanso do patrão
Que país é esse?
Que país é esse?
Que país é esse?
Que país é esse?
Terceiro Mundo se for
Piada no exterior
Mas o Brasil vai ficar rico
Vamos faturar um milhão
Quando vendermos todas as almas
Dos nossos índios num leilão
Que país é esse?
Que país é esse?
Que país é esse?
Que país é esse?

You can enjoy a refinement and delicacy in his compositions - real bijoux - which is difficult to find in other authors. Thus he himself declared:
"People often complain that music is too ambiguous, that what they should think when they hear it is so unclear, whereas everyone understands words. With me, it is exactly the opposite, and not only with regard to an entire speech but also with individual words. These, too, seem to me so ambiguous, so vague, so easily misunderstood in comparison to genuine music, which fills the soul with a thousand things better than words. The thoughts which are expressed to me by music that I love are not too indefinite to be put into words, but on the contrary, too definite."
I can only agree :)
Hence why I like his music so much, more than many of the "Romantic" composers.Quote:

Such stupidity. Music, the visual arts, literature, as well as science, have no "race" or "ethnicity"; they are the flowering of human genius and should only be celebrated.
When the Jewish orchestra at Theresienstadt wanted to convey their horror and grief at what was happening to them and to their compatriots all over Europe they chose Verdi's Requiem.
The theatrical trailer from the documentary called: The Defiant Requiem:

Starving, abused, terrified people found a voice, comfort, and strength in the music of an Italian Catholic. That's what the arts are all about. It's heartbreaking and inspirational all at the same time.

I was listening to soul most of last night. Has there ever been better dance music for lovers? Compared to this a lot of today's music is just garbage imo. No romance, no deep sensuality, often marred by disrespect and violence.
