Liszt b otd 1811! I love Grieg's description: "He does not really play—one forgets he is a musician, he becomes a prophet proclaiming the Last Judgment, till all the spirits of the universe vibrate under his fingers... He stirs one’s inmost soul with demonic power.” Wow...

Thunder and Trembling Vladimir Horowitz’s Battle with Performance Anxiety (Born October 1, 1903): https://t.co/yz4VzeDaQD #music #pianists

Edvard Grieg died on this day back in 1907

This hut situated in the grounds of his house in Troldhaugen, Bergen is where he did his composing.

It is easy to see how his compositions would have been influenced by these wonderful surroundings

Did you know? Music learning enhances all learning, literacy, coordination, discipline, communication, dexterity, fine motor skills, as well as cooperation, creativity, self expression. #music

@EM_RESUS If you have a rare disease and don’t happen to live near or have access to a world class/teaching/research hospital, you may suffer for a long time with no diagnosis.

Good morning. When legendary pianist Vladimir Horowitz returned to the Carnegie Hall Stage in 1965 after a 12-year absence from performing, his triumph was met with a huge standing ovation. Photo Alfred Eisenstaedt/The LIFE picture collection/ Getty Images #music #piano

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

Remembering Bartolomeo Cristofori, the inventor of the piano, who was born on this very day in 1655

This is a moral moment. It is not left or right, it is right or wrong.

[Cory Booker @CoryBooker]

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

What’s most clear to me tonight is that this is just the beginning, that Americans across this country, no matter their title or party, are ready to be heard.

I believe that history will show we rose to meet this moment.

It will show we did not let the chaos and division go unanswered.

It will show that when our president chose to spread lies and sow fear, we chose to come together, to work together, and to rise together.

Franz Joseph Haydn b otd 1732! What a composer - such breathtaking originality, glorious imagination, emotional depth; a genius - unique. And I love his attitude to religious music: "When I think of my God, my heart dances within me for joy; and then my music has to dance, too."

[John Adams @HellTweet]

The President lets it be known. Can you believe that?

Alicia de Larrocha (1923-2009) was one of the women pianists who, step by step, made her way in a musical world dominated by men.

So ironic that Trump had Churchill's bust over his shoulder in the Oval Office while he dressed down a modern-day Churchill on behalf of a Russian dictator.

[Chad R. Bowles 🇺🇦 @chadrbowles]

I feel physically ill. I am outraged and disgusted by this country’s “leadership”. There is no excuse for what happened at the White House today. This is a very dark day for the United States. Trump and Vance are a disgrace. I stand with my Ukrainian family.
Слава Україні.
