Spent most of the day rearranging the apartment, or reading about how alcohol intake can be a risk factor for heart attacks (and yes, I was drinking a beer while reading, so what).
Today was the first and second of Beethoven's Op. 18, The Six Quartets
Side One
Piece: Quartet in F Major, Op. 18, No. 1
1. Allegro con brio
2. Adagio affettuoso ed appassionato
3. Scherzo: Allegro molto
4. Allegro
Composer: Beethoven
Performers: The Budapest String Quartet: Roisman and Gorodetzky, Violins; Kroyt, Viola; Schneider, Cello
Record Date: 1951
Side Two
Piece: Quartet in G Major, Op. 18, No. 2
1.Allegro
2. Adagio cantabile; Allegro
3. Scherzo: Allegro
4. Allegro molto quasi presto
Supposedly this is one of those great recordings that happens once in a lifetime. The best musicians, playing the best instruments, preforming a great piece. I just wish life would have slowed down enough for me to really sit and enjoy.
