one time someone on a morning stand-up call asked my papa how his weekend was and he flatly stated, in his russian accent, "terrible." i think about this in nearly every small talk situation.

Having only put up this House Martin nest box 2 weeks ago I thought that it was too late and this year it would be empty, however, when I woke up this morning to here the bubbly chirps coming from just outside my window there was only one thing it could be...

@Dantronica @philosophymeme0 yeah fish have lateral line systems. animals (not humans) have more analogous abilities in air ... like whiskers & cerci being anemometers

we can feel the air & we also feel the water but not with so much sophistication 😊

Tartini was the 1st known owner of a violin made by Antonio Stradivari,which Tartini bestowed upon his student Salvini,who in turn gave it to the Polish composer & virtuoso violinist Karol Lipiński upon hearing him perform:the instrument is thus known as the Lipinski Stradivarius

At age 14, Evgeny Kissin performs Alexander Scriabin’s Étude in C-sharp minor, Op. 42 No. 5. Though only about three minutes long, Scriabin once wrote that this étude surpassed his Symphony No. 3 (Scriabin) in power and scale. Marked Affanato (“breathless”), the piece unfolds in dense, turbulent textures, with restless harmonies that create a sense of constant tension. A brief, lyrical melody at the opening offers a rare moment of calm within an otherwise dark and dramatic sound world.

Kissin, already recognized as a remarkable prodigy, approaches the work with striking intensity and commitment. An anecdote recounted by Harold C. Schonberg in The Great Pianists also highlights the piece’s reputation for difficulty. He describes the extraordinary memory and musicianship of Sergei Rachmaninoff, who reportedly remarked about this étude, “Difficult étude—I spent an hour on it.” After Scriabin’s death in 1915, Rachmaninoff frequently performed his colleague’s piano music and sometimes ended recitals with this powerful miniature.
