I love your blog. I find myself hearing music to many books/texts/stories (take your pick) that resonate with me. "The Handmaid's Tale" and "Daughters of Eve" are 2 examples that I've mentally scored, not deliberately in these cases. But everyone is different in relating to texts and music and texts and music together.<br /><br />I remember my 1st classical album. It was an LP (I'm old enough it was a record). It was the best of the French composers, with an inexplicable photo of de Gaulle on the cover.

I know it wasn't the CD cover, because it had a picture of the very bald and old Stravinsky on there...<br /><br />I'm glad that every once in a while a book goes well with music. I'm hoping to write a few more music themed posts this year too if I can find time.

I LOVE LOVE your music pics. I love "The Firebird" and have choreographed skating programs to it. I love your reviews, though I seldom say anything. Also, I am one of those people who had no idea about the origins of "Wicked," though I do know the general storyline.L**, Bathtub Fabric Queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11850512533584110856noreply@blogger.com
