She was a bit of an odd duck, but it is a good movie. Emily Watson is an excellent actress and there is some really good music in the movie.Rogue Medichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07598646309630074992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4449069758560401638.post-53281275298976244162008-06-18T09:55:00.000-04:002008-06-18T09:55:00.000-04:00In a search to find that Elgar piece, I was forced...In a search to find that Elgar piece, I was <I>forced</I> to download an entire library of classical stuff many things I didn't have..so thanks.

An old false memory. I don't recall my introduction to his music, but it is cheerful. :-)<BR/><BR/>At least it is very moving.<BR/><BR/>Along the same lines, if you listen to the Concerto for Violoncello and Orchestra in E Minor, Opus 85 by Edward Elgar with Jacqueline du Pré on the cello, that is another moving piece.Rogue Medichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07598646309630074992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4449069758560401638.post-56466812852074918092008-06-14T22:53:00.000-04:002008-06-14T22:53:00.000-04:00Sadly I didn't discover Albinoni until after my 10...Sadly I didn't discover Albinoni until after my 109 days, else you would have been starting IV's on me and infusing 500cc of concerto.Vincehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04164939988793331231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4449069758560401638.post-23324386105655295992008-06-14T17:52:00.000-04:002008-06-14T17:52:00.000-04:00I don't remember any Albinoni at 109, but I rememb...I don't remember any Albinoni at 109, but I remember some other hangover treatments - fluids, dextrose, and oxygen. <BR/><BR/>Adagios are good for a lot of things, even calming down hysterical hyperventilators.Rogue Medichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07598646309630074992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4449069758560401638.post-33055692899170401142008-06-14T17:37:00.000-04:002008-06-14T17:37:00.000-04:00hehehe I was actually referring to listening to th...hehehe I was actually referring to listening to the piece, but you are pun-tastic as usual!Vincehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04164939988793331231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4449069758560401638.post-858212779578676402008-06-14T16:14:00.000-04:002008-06-14T16:14:00.000-04:00I think you mean "hair of the adagio."
