In Reply to: Okay, so I was tired! ;-) But I still think he's being affected as much as posted by Timbo in Oz on March 14, 2011 at 14:59:39:
Indeed that is very true. I should probably clarify a bit. I discussed this with him at one time and he disagreed but - interestingly - his wife did not.This fellow's interests were nurtured by my Dad to a great degree but he has taken them far and away beyond. Of course we're talking a 45-year time span as well. (actually 55-years if you include the time before Dad died). His musical knowledge far outstrips mine at this point.
What we were discussing was the fact that he enjoyed a lot of music that I cannot relate to (and vice versa) even tho we shared many experiences growing up. As an example, Stravinski generally reaches me emotionally while Schoenberg, generally, does not. I can listen to and enjoy it but it's on a totally separate plane.
Even at a Symphonic concert, If I am into it, my feet will involuntarily tap. Some folks look at me like I am weird. (OK - perhaps I am).
If I'm not "into" it the only thing that results is a sore ass.
So - I suppose my only real point is that the same music can be enjoyed (or not) by many different people on many different levels/planes.
Did I send you the "Music Inn" link? That was one place where we had a shared interest/experience. Just in case - I'm sending it again. Time and again I wish I had more fully appreciatedd just what we were living through at the time. I thought it would never end.
