Midweek Music XV: A Day Late

music_vivaldi_orchestra_concerto

I have an exquisite piece of music to share today, though this posting is a day late. I’ve been working more than 12 hours today and though I’m tired…here I am writing this post.

Interestingly enough, I realize most of the orchestra music that I shared here is by Vivaldi! I promise he’s not the only classical composer I like, it just happens that I’ve found a lot of beautiful pieces of his on youtube. After this, I’ll share more worship and other genres I enjoy, to keep things fresh. The thing is, I get excited about a new video I find and can’t wait to share it with you, so then I put the rest of the songs on the backburner.

Speaking of music, I have to start burning some songs on CD’s to take on an upcoming roadtrip! Yikes, I know I’ll end up with a little stack of CD’s to carry around.

This Vivaldi piece is a Mandolin Concerto. The players are so passionate, so skilled, they live the music! It’s a beauty to watch, and nearly makes you want to be among them playing along. It’s also a perfect example of God’s workmanship, how He endowed man with the ability and talent to compose such complex music, and use hands, fingers, mouth, mind, everything, moving in perfect coordination to make melody that feeds the soul and praises God!

I do hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Do you enjoy classical music? 

If so, who is your favorite composer?

If not, why not?
