Re: Clair de Lune

I think I mainly did this as a rather hard song, for my level, at the end of piano lessons in high school and went on to major. I actually took to Baroque music, in significant ways. This is more of a bridge of Contemporary Classical, in my opinion. Tchaikovsky is kinda a late Romantic composer with The Nutcracker. 😀 I think Germany was better in at least the Baroque and Classical period. I like Maurice Ravel for the ballet La Valse, which seems like a complex Romantic style piece, though I believe it is an example of Contemporary Classical. It seems like Tchaikovsky is a like Beethoven. I like The Nutcracker and think it is the best classical work ever, as far as what goes into it, because it was made for ballet too. It paints a picture.

Oh Croft.. You're as obsessed with Evanescence as you are with the Tomb Raider!

This piece of 'music' cannot be compared to real music.

Sorry mate. I tell it like it is.

Re: Clair de Lune

Probably the most beautiful piece of music ever composed. I loved it at the end of Ocean's 11.

Re: Clair de Lune

Votre âme est un paysage choisi

Que vont charmant masques et bergamasques

Jouant du luth et dansant et quasi

Tristes sous leurs déguisements fantasques.

Tout en chantant sur le mode mineur

L'amour vainqueur et la vie opportune

Ils n'ont pas l'air de croire à leur bonheur

Et leur chanson se mêle au clair de lune,

Au calme clair de lune triste et beau,

Qui fait rêver les oiseaux dans les arbres

Et sangloter d'extase les jets d'eau,

Les grands jets d'eau sveltes parmi les marbres.



Your soul is a delicate landscape

Where roam charming masks and bergamasques

Playing the lute and dancing and seeming almost

Sad under their whimsical disguises.

While singing in a minor key

Of victorious love and easy life

They don't seem to believe in their happiness

And their song mingles with the moonlight,

With the sad and beautiful moonlight,

Which makes the birds in the trees dream

And sob with ecstasy the water streams,

The great slim water streams among the marbles.
