You don't need to wear a tuxedo, and the tickets are very affordable, around $100-200 for a reasonable seat and for some of the best world's classical directors and orchestras.
...The best place to take your Mom to on Mother's Day. Mom she's not into Rap music. :b
The place has been professionally treated to have some of the best acoustics this side of this continent.
Personally I love this C&C version - warning - naughty language.

Talking about carnival, I was looking for some of the pics from my usual location, Sancho Panza.

I was going to post that tune for a later installment, but now I don't have to, thank you.
And yes, it is in my pile of CDs gathering dust in the basement.
Today is Saturday right, and Ron started this thread right, and we're posting in it right? That's cool.
I got most ? of her albums. But it don't mean a thing, not a thing.
I also have these ? two albums:
It just don't mean a thing.

It would be wise to look at History and see how musical genres were perceived and evolved in spite of staunch opposition of some members of society. There is no escaping the social factors that bring new musical genres, be it Rock , Blues, Hip Hop or .. Jazz or even so called " Classical".. As an example, today Jazz is seen as the Music of Connoisseurs, declaring: "I like Jazz", confers a perception of sophistication, culture, education and .. coolness. Yet 100 years ago Jazz was perceived as the Devil's Music.
It would be wise to watch this,

I will follow up with some Historical facts about how some Classical Music pieces were in fact quite profane and direct in their use and vivid description of sexual intercourse. Carl Orff's "Carmina Burana" which is likely in many audiophiles library is such an example going as far to describe a 10-hour (!!) intercourse with the goddess of Love ...
This article in Wikipedia will tell you all you need to know ... click HERE
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carmina_Burana
Oh .... and Yes! I like Rap, and Hip Hop.. Some of it anyway
... as in any musical form lot of it is pure garbage ... it remains a musical genre and will evolve .. When The entire world espouses a genre to that extent, there is no denying (or escaping) its power and validity and yes!, Beauty... The World raps (and hips and hops ) from Borneo to Norway .. From Chile to Canada.. From Soweto to Reykjavik, Manila, London, Port-au-Prince, Jerusalem, Peking, Paris, Mexico, Rio De Janeiro, New Delhi, Tokyo, Moscow or NYC ... Everywhere.Frantz,
It would be wise not to confuse the medieval collection of poetry "Carmina Burna" with Carl Orff's musical masterpiece, using a few selected and inoffensive poems. Anyone having listened to Orff's Carmina Burana with the lyrics translation close by knows your "Historical fact" is completely false - children chorus often sing in Carmina Burana performances! Unless you object to "limbs, arms and lips" you will not find there anything to disturb you ...
Carl Orff was an active roman catholic, also known for his pedagogic work such as Musik für Kinder (Music for Children).
BTW, we must listen to the Trionfi - although Carmina Burana is the mostly known, Catulli Carmina and Trionfo di Afrodite are great pieces - to fully understand Orff work.
If you are looking for profane classic music, IMHO you should look towards Richard Strauss ...
Thanks microstrip for the correction... Thus I should have pointed toward the work of Strauss. One must however admit the choice of name for Orff's work since Carmina Burana is indeed a profane work and quite graphic at that...
Aside from that do you disagree with my points?
I realized something because of this thread. When I was younger I was listening to Rap music without any direction, just for the beat/rhythm, without fully listening to the lyrics, just some repetitive lines. It wasn't heavy as some of the Rap today, but Ice-T was gangsta Rap nonetheless, and few others too. There is some deep frustration and rebellion and gangs/drugs/sex exploitation and violence in many Rap music genres. A quarter century later I hate violence promoted through Rap/Hip-Hop music...many of them.
If I would take the time to analyse all the lyrics I would be more firm on what is inline or not with my own lifestyle.
I mentioned this before: Rap uses vocals a lot, the lyrics are the predominant aspect of Hip-Hop music. The music itself is simple, repetitive, bass heavy, disco heavy, boomy, electrocuting.
The dance and gestures from many rappers are also a big part of accompanying the rebellious vocals...against a conformed society, against the corruption in the police force, against the "power". Guns, machine-guns, white powder, cash money bills, gold chains and rings, naked girls, sexual suggestive (sexploitation) images, pimping, killing, etc. are all showing in both videos and lyrics. This ain't calypso music, this ain't peaceful/fun dancing music; it's violent and degrading music, a cry of despair by promoting violence against violence. It can only lead to more violence. Drugs and guns in all parts of our society, from the rappers to the dictators and the corrupted forces of order; is a disease, and that disease is a deadly cancer to our kids. It spreads to them instead of freeing them.
It doesn't mean that because we like some type of Rap music we are part of the dark side. No, there is some good Rap music, with encouraging lyrics for the kids and adults too.
I don't know how to make the world a better peaceful world. What I do know is that Classical music doesn't use lyrics, gestures, ...
And I thought that it was Blues that used to be called the Devil music? Blues is broken hearts music.
Jazz, is many things, but intellectual music is an illusion. Classical is no illusion, to me.
I would never say to anyone: "It would be wise..." because it infers that I am.
* I was surprised to learn that I have more Rap/Hip-Hop music in my fair and diversified ? library than I originally thought.
The reason because I just don't listen to it anymore, for a good quarter century; it does nothing to me, none nowhere near Classical, Jazz, Blues, International music.
This is music passion, discovery of my inner soul, music evolution in a real world of harmony and smooth vibrations, down to my most fragile bones.

I got this one too:
I just don't listen to that stuff anymore; that was a lost portion of my life. This is the Rap thread; you ain't see nothing...there is Hard Heavy Ultra Metal music.
In another thread perhaps... I don't ban people because of their brief musical orientation of past life, because of their sexualilty, because of their affiliation with some type of groups in the past. The ones who ban people are the ones who have issues with themselves, who think they are better than the rest. But I condemn violence in any form.
Pick the one you like best; without or with moving pictures (live):
