Watch Sir Anthony Hopkins as he hears the waltz he wrote 50 years ago played live by André Rieu and his JSO.
Before taking up acting as a career, The Academy Award winner was a musician. Fifty years ago he wrote a waltz but was too afraid to ever hear it play. Until, in 2011, he asked André Rieu to play his composition "And the Waltz Goes On"
@kiaora45 I'm glad you liked it. Sir Anthony Hopkins is also an accomplished pianist in the film “The Two Popes” (2019 film with Sir Jonathan Pryce) actually Anthony Hopkins plays the piano in this film, like Pope Benedict XVI.
He’s also one the most multi-talented stars on theatre, television and the film industry.
@clintonanna It’s my pleasure 💙 is part of André Rieu’s album centered on a waltz composed by Anthony Hopkins, in 1964.
💚 // Speak kindly to Yourself // 💚 • • • 💚 the Fugue (plenty of voices going around) your head, can either bring you up or confuse and upset you. It can be tricky to find that one calm voice that calms you and motivate you altogether. 🤨 • • • 💚 the only way to calm those voices down is to remind yourself how great it feels when you speak kindly to yourself. Keep this up until you feel safe and loved in your own mind! 👏😆🥰 • • • 💚 it all starts by reaffirming yourself of what you love about yourself, and remember that you can take your time to change certain qualities of yourself that you would rather improve on. 😳😛🤪 • • • 💚 You are always listening to yourself, so be gentle anyways! 😉 • • • 💚 Gentleness is sweet : [Philippians 4:5] “Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.” • • • 💚 A Raspberry’s Takeaway: It takes a lot of mental strength to fight those “Fugues” in your head, learn what a fugue is by Johann Sebastian Bach (@bachclassicals ) and @classicalmusicmode .

Busted out some Sarasate for my presentation yesterday for Mindful Music Academy, my family's music school in Fountain Valley. I love inspiring kids to pursue their passion and carry on art traditions!

Subito dynamics! I tend to include unintentional crescendos and diminuendos in passages with subito or sudden changes in dynamics. As a remedy, I use this two step process. In this post I practice a passage from the Prelude of #suite6 for #solocello BWV 1012 by #jsbach Step 1 - I practice slowly with a metronome and add a slight crescendo before each piano and a slight diminuendo before each forte. This interferes the tendency to do the opposite, which is not desired in this case. ~swipe left~ Step 2 - dynamics are clear without unintentional crescendos or diminuendos creating the desired “echo” effect #violoncellodaspalla #celloteacher #cellomusic #violintechnique #violinteacher #practiceroom #beautifulmusic #purposefulpractice #cellopractice #johannsebastianbach #ambasciatoredelvioloncellodaspalla #stringsattached #stringplayer #baroquemusic #practiceprocess #killingperfectionisminclassical #cellohelp #cellotechnique #cellovideo #classicalmusicmode #instacello #instaclassical #violoncelista (at Washington D.C.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGmzmDdg9_T/?igshid=1b72g7tr09wus
💜 Who can I Encourage Today ? 💜 • • • 💜 Everyone needs encouragement from time to time. Because life is hard and we all would do life better when there's a supporter, ain't it true? 😎 • • • 💜 Even if you don't have one today, why not be one to someone. It will bring about something positive to yourself. Because when you speak life into someone, you are unconsciously encouraging yourself, too. 🥰 • • • 💜 Try that today 😊 • • • 💜 Let's diggin to scripture 🌟 [Proverbs 18 : 24] "There are friends who destroy each other, but a real friend sticks closer than a brother". • • • 💜 A Raspberry’s Takeaway: Great reminder from @active_faith101 : “God is bigger than your anxieties and fears...” Classic style like @classicalmusicmode 🧡 it is for everyone 🤓 art with @daylightillustrations and @novemberraspberry 😍🥰 • • • #novemberraspberry #musician #faithart #faith #charms #art #christian #christianity #christianblogger #music #encouragement #life #lifestyleblogger #science #eurasia #asia #europe #food #foodie #pancake #words #classicalmusic #pianist #lemon #fruit #citrus #nutrition #family #study #read (at Eurasia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDqoj-KhsLN/?igshid=ubql0g84y4e1
