The Unanswered Question is a collage of three distinct layers - strings, flute quartet, and solo trumpet. Each layer has its own tempo and key. Ives himself described the work as a "cosmic landscape" in which the strings represent "the Silences of the Druids—who Know, See and Hear Nothing." The trumpet then asks "The Perennial Question of Existence" and the flutes seek "The Invisible Answer", but abandon it in frustration, so that ultimately the question is answered only by the "Silences".
Music:
The Unanswered Question (1908)
Composer:
Charles Ives
Performers:
Filarmonica della Scala
Gustavo Dudamel – conductor

Hello Eolie,
Each of the 14 separate fugues in the "Art of the Fugue" is based on the same short melody. It appears as if Bach is obsessed with how many ways he can create a fugue using the same tune.
It is also interesting that no particular instrumentation is specified. This music can be played by any combination of instruments. It seems that Bach has written The Art of the Fugue as an intellectual exercise, yet one that sets the very highest musical standards for what a fugue can be.
Music:
Art of the Fugue – 9
Composer:
J.S. Bach
Performers:
The Emerson String Quartet
All my best,
michael

..Mozart's "Prague" Symphony, in my myspace classical music-video blog, was composed in gratitude for the high esteem held for him by his devoted following in Prague.

Hello Eolie,
The lyric tells of the joy of love; but there is sadness in it also, because it speaks of the transitoriness of life. The song extols the power of love to remain constant in a fleeting world.
Music:
"Glück, das mir verblieb" from the opera "Die tote Stadt"
Composer:
Erich Wolfgang Korngold (May 29, 1897 – November 29, 1957)
Performers:
Anne Sofie von Otter – soprano
All my best,
michael
