Adagio in Strings by Barber. I"m looking for a decent version and

[crim son]

some moron has turned it into a disco/dance deal with high praise. Then I find Gen, struggling along on his piano and it's so much more beautiful.

1. Sorry dear.

Actually it is "light" house by Tiesto (AAAAAAAAAAUUUGHHHH - my husband the prog house and breaks dj HATES him; he is the Celine Dion of techno); so just make sure you avoid anything with the above name attached (and make sure you specify the word IN instead of FOR and you have a better chance of getting what you are looking for).
Good luck.

2. It IS that disgusting Tiesto and who knew?

I am rather surprised anybody at all knows him. Prog house? Do tell!

3. *ahem* PM about to be sent!

[crim son]

4. And how overwhelmed am I about that? (stupid American rhetoric)

:D

5. I can see - in your reply you were excited enough to forget to say

where I can send it to.

:rofl:

6. I am surely an idiot. PM forthcoming.

8. Best version I know

was done by the Kronos string quartet. Its on their album "a door is ajar".

9. You might like Bernstein's with the LA Philharmonic

For the record, it's the second movement of Barber's String Quartet #1. Also check the vocal version Agnus Dei - ravishing.

If you're a Barber fan, listen to his Concerto for Violin and Orchestra; the man could do melody.

11. Another great Barber:

Concerto for Piano and Orchestra.

If you want to hear some, send me a PM. :hi:

12. Got it.

I'm a Barber slut. :loveya:

10. I've got it at home, but can't remember the conductor

There's another techno version by William Orbit, too. I rather like that one. Under the right conditions, it can bring tears to your eyes - which is weird for techno.
