Re: Your Classical Music Favourites....

One of my favourite pieces of music is Mahler's 8th Symphony - in particular the Finale - the Mystical Chorus - Alles Vergängliche ist nur ein Gleichnis (All that is transitory is but an illusion!)
I'd like it played at my funeral

Spider - this is my mother's favourite singer. Long time since I've heard this though. I think she had this on an old 78!! I definitely remember hearing it played on an old scratchy record!

Re: Your Classical Music Favourites....

Thanks for that Cheshire Cat a great choice of music.
May I say that your mum had a good ear for music if she enjoyed Kathleen Ferrier. I love her music, sadly she passed away at only 41 years old having endured breast cancer. I was introduced to her singing voice when I was a teenager at senior school.

Another one of my favourites now.....Andreas Scholl singing Handel.

I'm an opera nut and one of my favourites is this:

Two gorgeous ladies as well. We are coming to London next week and have booked for Covent Garden to see Jonas Kaufman (he's also gorgeous and a fabulous voice) in Manon Lescaut. Then going to a piano recital at Wigmore Hall later in the week. This is our annual treat to ourselves!
