davegee Posted July 20, 2016 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 Maureen, Lovely Images - nicely put together. But, for me, the music does not "fit". The "bluesy" music is either New York or the Deep South and if you didn't know what the piece was called its relevance would be a puzzle.

Lakelandlass Posted July 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Thank you, Dave. Interesting comment. I guess we all hear music differently. Maureen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davegee Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Sorry, maybe I was a little harsh but I have never associated Gershwin with Italy. I expected light, airy strings or maybe some subtle mandolin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lakelandlass Posted July 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 No offence taken, Dave, honestly. For what I was trying to create, which is a relaxing, sitting down with a glass of wine, watching the scenery type of holiday, it suited MY MOOD exactly. If you try to disassociate that musical piece from 'Porgy and Bess' which as you state is set in the Deep South, and I realise that is difficult, then for me it works. Thought of you the other week when we went to a concert given by the Mandolinquents, don't know if you have ever heard of them. Different mandolins, guitars, violins - super!

Lakelandlass Posted July 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Hey Dave, since writing the above, maybe I will give it a go. I've got some mandolin music. Maureen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lakelandlass Posted July 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Thanks again, however, will try what I have. It won't be the first time I have rejigged a show at someone's suggestion. Maureen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
