The music of "This week on IFM"

Very nice this 1st Prelude from Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier to illustrate the new releases ...

It flows like a calm, springtime river ...

Thanks Christian! Such a great piece and I love the way it builds in intensity - I have been toying with the idea of using it for a few weeks so I'm glad you enjoyed it

It's a very nice idea indeed, Mew, I did not deserve much to have recognized this magnificent page of Bach, I am a pianist, piano teacher and musical critic and I play it often because it is a Prelude that people love it!

Oh cool! Now it might remind you of other things heehee I would love to use dance of the sugar plum fairies and hall of the mountain king (although I'm not sure the latter wouldn't work so well somehow lol) Ooh and habanera by Bizet!

Or maybe Toccata in D minor lolol

All these musics are very good choices, indeed, they have, in their genre, a very evocative power.

The dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy by Tchaikowsly is extremely dreamy and mysterious especially because of the use of the celesta, which is very rare in an orchestration; it would suit perfectly ... it brings something magical.
Peer Gynt actually seems a bit scary and heavy to me, not very well suited, as does Bach's very imposing and grandiose Toccata.

La Habanera very sensual with its Spanish dance rhythm and its very seductive theme is to be tried.
Have you thought of the Andante from Mozart's Concerto n ° 21 K 467, it opens the doors to a very appropriate world of dreams and sweetness or even Chopin's Lullaby?

Try to masturbate while listening to them and give us your opinion ...
