Every time I hear this recording of Monteverdi’s Chiome d’oro all I see is these two goober singing. So I drew this picture.

Here's the unedited recording of the violin and recorder parts from Monteverdi's Il Ritorno d'Ulisse in Patria that I'm currently working on I just really, really like this piece.
I especially love how jolly and lively it sounds on its own without the brass
Here's the sheet music if anyone's interested:

And here's an actual recording (starting at 1:55:08):

Sì dolce e'l tormento, SV 332 Claudio Monteverdi (1567 - 1643) Philippe Jaroussky (countertenor) L'Arpeggiata Ensemble
(remastered) Sì dolce è'l tormento Ch'in seno mi sta, Ch'io vivo contento Per cruda beltà. Nel ciel di bellezza S'accreschi fierezza Et manchi pietà: Che sempre qual scoglio All'onda d'orgoglio Mia fede sarà.
La speme fallace Rivolgam' il piè. Diletto ne pace Non scendano a me. E l'empia ch'adoro Mi nieghi ristoro Di buona mercè: Tra doglia infinita, Tra speme tradita Vivrà la mia fè.
[Per foco e per gelo Riposo non hò. Nel porto del cielo Riposo avrò. Se colpo mortale Con rigido strale Il cor m'impiagò, Cangiando mia sorte Col dardo di morte Il cor sanerò.]
Se fiamma d'amore Già mai non sentì Quel rigido core Ch'il cor mi rapì, Se nega pietate La cruda beltate Che l'alma invaghì: Ben fia che dolente, Pentita e languente Sospirimi un dì. ~~
So sweet is the torment That lies in my heart, That I live happily In the face of cruel beauty. In heaven's beauty Fierce pride may grow bold Without pity But always my faith Will be a rock Against that wave of pride.
May false hope Turn back from me May neither delight Nor peace descend upon me. And the cruel woman I adore Deny me Merciful relief; Amidst infinite pain Amidst broken hope, My faith shall survive.
[From fire and ice I will find no repose Only at the gate of heaven I shall find repose. Should the deadly strike Of an arrow Injure my heart, My heart shall heal By changning my lot With that arrow of death]
If that unyielding heart That has captured mine Has never felt The flames of love, If the cruel beauty That enthralled my soul Denies me pity, Then let it be that one day, Languishing in pain and repentance, She will sigh for me.

(petite histoire poétique des villes, l’origine de la musique)
retrouvé l’architecture de Venise dans l’Orféo ; son « possente spirto » comme une fulgurante déclaration d’amour à ses échos puissants de pierre et de reflets, à ses jeux floraux qui se reproduisent le long des lignes de fuite, à ses perspectives dupliquées qui engagent vers des voies de mystère ; ici pour traverser le styx, là pour effacer la ligne entre la vie et la mort ; spatialisation de la musique de Monteverdi pour dire l’espace de la ville, ses répliques infinies ; la ville qui semble l’avoir inspiré, établit et posé des principes pour son œuvre ; partition de ville, partition de musique, comme jumelées ; le chant mélodieux comme un calque des effets visuelles de la cité aux milles échappées, une réplique sonore saisie dans un tremblement, la ville spectre au milieu du grand départ sur le fleuve qui délimite la vie, la ville lacustre qui avance vers nous toute en lumière

Polina Semionova & Vladimir Malakhov: Caravaggio
"You want to be the slave of something because there’s just this overwhelming anxiety. Sometimes it’s not anxiety, it’s a thrill that you get from the feeling that just anything goes. I’m doing this scene, but I could be doing something that’s fifty times better – I just don’t know what it is or how to get it. It’s like the anxiety that comes from total freedom. That kind of freedom can make you very nervous because it of course always throws you up against your limitations. You have a sense of terrible freedom. You could be doing anything, and look at what you’re doing. It’s so pathetic. And so every day you get a lesson in humility. It’s not that the lesson in humility is bad, but the daily dose is just discouraging."
Terrence Malick In conversation with Joseph Gelmis Recorded circa. 1974

Kaikhosru Shapurji Sorabji
Kaikhosru Shapurji Sorabji (1892-1988): As a composer, Sorabji was largely self-taught. On 2 cds I have Jonathan Powell’s recording of the 8 hour Sequential Cyclica for solo piano/ 8 hours! I hope the pianist gets a washroom break at some point. Of Parsi & English parentage & openly gay he had a lifelong tendency to seclusion. I came across a post on Tumblr about him & was intrigued, found the…

Mary and Francis
La fiera vista e’l velenoso sguardo
del Basilisco a l’huom toglie la vita
et voi con gl’occhi per virtù d’amore
a chi vi mira li togliete il core.
L’Aspide pien di morte e di veleno
chiude l’orecchio all’efficace incanto,
e voi Aspe crudel con voglia ria
vi fate sorda all’aspra pena mia.
Con dolcissimo canto le Sirene
a naviganti fan sentir la morte,
e voi con gli occhi per virtù d’Amore
a chi vi mira Ii togliete il core.
Tal che privo di speme in questa vita
vivrò sempre amando e lagrimando,
ch’Amor per far eterna la mia pena
v’ha Basilisco fatta Aspe e Sirena.
La fiera vista, Claudio Monteverdi, madrigal from "Canzonette a tre voci", no. 3, 1584)
