Some gorgeous music there Moisok and Mitolo. I'm listening to Bruckner 4 at the moment and I also love Rach 1,2 and 3 and Samuel Barber's wonderful adagio for strings.

Wrong to call teams After Tribes I.e Redskins ETC You seen to think you have some knowledge of the history of America before Columbus. Perhaps you could share with us your knowledge about the “Redskin” “Tribe”. Which part of the continent did this tribe live in. Which language did they speak? Good to know there is somebody on the forum with this knowledge. |

just seen this peering through me fingers. was given a rocket this morning by the account holder so was scared of what id writ, having no recollection of it. not as bad as i thought but not great either. wac.
rach 123 a bit samey imo, but i cant think of anything he did i dont like. i luv wagner when im super-laggo but am rarely capable of finding it. black sabbath is funny and so daft but it does get some people going. if you like that sort of thing its the sort of thing you will like. i dont like poofters poncing about, which is what pop music is but i quite liked devo and ian dury. in fact what a waste will be played at me funeral, which could be quite soon the way i carry on. foinavon, i used to bunk into aintree right there, when it was easy, as nobody went and it nearly went under. saved by ladbrokes, so give them some credit. keep reading them books. the more of us the better. |

Wrong to call teams After Tribes I.e Redskins ETC I honestly don’t know anything about the “Redskin” tribe you refer to, which is why I was asking for some information. I can’t fill you in about this “tribe” as I don’t know which part of America they are from, anything about their culture, anything about their language. Really hoping you can “Fill us in” case. Sounds interesting. Please tell us all about this tribe. Or are you totally clueless Case? |
|
By:
All Tribes were referred to as Redskins They called themselves Redskins ?
What difference does it make That an NFL team named itself Redskins hardly Insulting people to Name a team after them ? Of course the Likes of you would find it Upsetting . |

By:
What about Chiefs whats the Problem with that ?

By:
i wonder how many native americans have made a fuss about this. ive no clue, but doubt many have.
mexico labouring the point which is correct but headcase does have a er... case. and talking of mexico, there was a bit of a palaver when british students adopted the sombrero as a good-time going out symbol and were immediately howled down by the mob who accused them of 'cultural appropriation' until the handful of mexicans in the uk galloped in to say no we love it and the wanchors had to back down. these d1ckheads seek outrage and look for it on behalf of those who they perceive to be victims, even if they enjoy the recognition. |

Errrrrr case
Wrong to call teams After Tribes I.e Redskins ETC So are you now claiming that there isn’t a single tribe of Native Americans called “ Redskins”. Disappointed that you posted an untruth. What difference does it make if a billion dollar sporting franchise called itself the Commanders? Case are you one of the those easily offended snowflakes who get offended by the name Commanders? Do you go to many of their games? How many? Is it zero? |

That is funny mitolo about not sure wot u rote haha - seriously though - it is down to the individual's taste isn't it.
Everybody says Mozart is fantastic etc but I find it totally boring. Just enjoy. At one time I disliked opera, I sort of grew up and now love it. But anything live on the streets makes me stop and listen too. |

Mitolo
An individual wearing a hat who didn’t mean any offence should not be abused. Only the individual would know if he was taking the p155 or not. That is rather different for a billion dollar organisation being named after “a tribe” which isn’t “a tribe” but actually an insulting name. I also think it is unlikely that British students changed the name of an NFL team. |

By:
Well back in the Day there was obviously no Problem with the Name Redskins or Many others that are now seen as not Acceptable ,But as stated it seems ok to use them for Weapons of War , Why ?
|
|
By:
Case you are correct that “ back in the day” casual racism was acceptable.
You seem to be very upset that these bygone days have past. Perhaps a night out with the grand wizard and the good ol’ boys would help you reminisce of the time you loved so much, before NFL teams were called the deeply offensive name of “ commanders’. How many Washington games do you attend each year case? Is it zero? |
|
By:
but they were mexico. or rather, were told to stop. only mexican protests ended it. its a small matter but is an indication of the lengths these wanchors will go to be offended on behalf of others. thats all.
i dont think redskins is insulting. and you have done the tribe bit to death. well done you small-minded point-scoring wanchor. thanks for pointing that out about british students. i thought they were at the heart of the nfl. |
|
By:
bygone days have indeed passed, thats why theyve gone. they are in the past. you never passed anything you berk
|
|
By:
and the mexican moves from disagreement about renaming nfl teams to insinuation of kkk extreme racism, based on nothing. incredibly offensive and all too common.

It is far more pleasant talking about music isn't it.
Now. Have any of you tried Gluck. A very unrepresented composer. Die tote Staddt act1 das mir verblieb (mariettalied) I think sounds good - what ever way it is spelt |
|
By:
did you misspell your name?
im listening to some polyphony atm. no idea who it is |
|
By:
sometimes you do listen to something and you scramble to find out what it is
I hate it when the announcer doesn't announce. You could have knocked me over with a feather after first hearing Dawn Upshaw singing the vocal parts of Gorecki's 3rd. As it did country wide - it stayed top of the favourites for many months or more on classic fm |
|
By:
classic fm. no fanks. even r3 sounds like r1 to me. aside from composer of the week and words and music and through the night.

By:
I no longer listen to it or 3, but this goes back - what? 30 years - I don't know - but the moment I heard that, it was one of those seminal moments ( that word always makes me think of a male orgasm - sorry) and then it was karl jenkins and michael nyman and a whole new world of music opened up.

"This was followed by the birth of the short-lived First Mexican Empire that used the "Mexico" name according to the convention used previously by Roman Empire (Latin: Imperium Romanum) and the Holy Roman Empire, whereby the capital gives rise to the name of the Empire. This was the first recorded use of "Mexico" as a country title. "
