Hyperion Knight

I'm a concert pianist and author who celebrates the Romantic spirit of music, the genius of our Founders, and human civilization in all its stunning diversity.

I recently changed my profile picture, and just so there's no misunderstanding, it does mean what you think it does: Beethoven's 9th is the greatest music ever written... and Godfather 1 & 2 are the greatest movies ever filmed. 😎

My tribute to America's 250th honors native son Cole Porter. Like the geniuses Irving Berlin & Billy Joel, Porter wrote the music AND the words. When it comes to the USA: "You're The Top!" And when it comes to the superhuman Justice League we call our Founding Fathers, "Let's Do It - Let's Fall In Love!"

@GStolyarovII Thanks so much, @GStolyarovII!. I met an admirer of yours tonight - @LevPo - so I'm glad we connected...

I first heard Chopin's heart wrenching Prelude in E Minor played by Jack Nicholson in the film Five Easy PIeces...

@BlueBoxDave @PaulDMauro The difference now is that the corruption has been "legalized"... and the cities themselves are dysfunctional.

On Memorial Day, 'Bring Him Home' from Les Miz says it all... https://t.co/GOdd9G8szA

@BlueBoxDave There's a good reason for that: the films and music of the 70s were timeless works of art. It doesn't matter when you were were born; when you see the Godfather or Network or Tootsie, or listen to Pink Floyd or Steely Dan or Earth, Wind, & Fire, you feel the greatness...

@3xchair @ParisMcQueen Just recently I worked with a woman who spent much of her childhood at Jackson's Neverland Ranch. She was clear: Jackson was a "best friend" to all the children, and there was never any funny business. I've never heard anything different from people who knew him personally...

@3xchair @RyanKristafer @rosannascotto @gooddayny There truly is justice is this world after all! 😎

@jpodhoretz 👏💯 A splendid list... I have a relative who once said "you can actually feel your I.Q. increasing as you read George Eliot."

[Hyperion Knight @1HyperionKnight]

I've known countless people who worked with Jackson or spent time as children at Neverland, and not one of them believed the charges...

I don't understand why we're being ghosted like this - did we do something to offend them? 😎

@RealJamesWoods Is this the greatest role ever?

@johnondrasik Allow me to opt for musical theater: "Everybody's playing the game,
But nobody's rules are the same" - "Nobody's Side" in Chess

@Music_Goddesss No one plays this Polonaise like Horowitz...! ❤️🇵🇱

@Music_Goddesss Classical music is food for both the soul and mind...

@BlueBoxDave You're telling me - I'm exhausted! 😅

@AdamSmithEcho Like Marie Curie winning Nobels for both physics and chemistry, Adam Smith deserves top awards for both economics and philosophy... 🏆
