Some personal favorites:
Gustav Mahler - M. RAVEL’S A THUG
Sufjan Stevens - JUST SEVEN FANS
Oscar Wilde - I LACE WORDS
HMS Pinafore - NAME FOR SHIP
Sergei Rachmaninoff - REACH FINE ORGASM IN F
Wes Anderson - RENOWNED ASS
Eleanor of Aquitaine - A TOO ALIEN, FAIR QUEEN
Vladimir Putin - I’M VALID TURNIP
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
Johann Sebastian Bach - Partita No. 6 in E Minor, BWV 830 - Toccata
Glenn Gould, piano
I burned this straight from my vinyl collection. You will hear surface noise. I personally like it, very much Gould’s humming. But just thought I’d make note anyways…
Staying with music-realted posts:
Adolphe Sax, Belgian musician and inventor of instruments - to wit, the saxophone - was born November 6, 1814 (d. 1894). He hardly imagined that his 1841 invention would become the prime vehicle for expressive jazz music a hundred years later…
As someone who played the alto sax in marching band and jazz band in high school, my proverbial hat goes off to you today.
