Okay mate, you may not agree, but no need for moodiness and offensiveness and trashing someone's beliefs.

Fair enough, but it is an 'Angus Dei', isn't it? 'Angus Dei' is Latin for Lamb of God. So thanks =)

IT'S Not a funeral piece it's everything mankind has ever suffered and ever will? Could it's meaning ever be be bettered? I don't think so? Do you? We must wait.

Absolutely correct. Mark of a great composer and orchestrator.

From what I remember from my readings about this piece, Barber never had the intention to write an elegy or funeral music althought it sounds like it. It became, to the peolpe, funeral music when it was played at F.D. Roosevelt's funeral. Musically speaking, the adagio is so close to stellar perfection. It is probably why it moves people so much. To take such a simple cantilena and stretch it for so long while never becoming boring is the mark of a great composer and orchestrator. |
