E' meraviglioso pensare che un grande scrittore come Murakami ci fa ritrovare qui ad ascoltare Janacek perchè ne parla nel suo libro. Ed è molto interessante ascoltare la stessa musica mentre si legge il libro.
Should have listened to this way sooner. Even in retrospect, you can a much better feel for what the mood of the scene is supposed to be when you know what the characters are hearing. Yeah, another 1Q84 comment, I just thought I'd join in.
thank you father for lending me 1Q84...have only read 40 pages so far, but am amazed! I am now content knowing what song Aomame was listening to in the taxi ^_^!
I couldn't help but wondering what kind of music was with Sinfonietta, I like classic music but have never heard of it. An interesting and no ordinary music as well as the book :-) it's awesome how Murakami makes us feel his writing... And also awesome that so many people discovered this sinfonieta because of 1Q84!
he was no "ordinary " taxi driver though. That is the point. A toyota crown royal saloon as a taxi and Janacek's sinfionetta. it is about the extraordinary. If it was ordinary you would not have come here to find this piece. Murakami has done his work well:]
pardon my intrusion; but i beg someone explain to me what's this 1Q84 thing everyone is talking about??? did i miss something? :D ..haven't really heard of anything like that in the news lately...
@squarechannel It's Haruki Murakami's new book in which Janacek's Sinfonietta plays a role. Not his best book, but a very worthy read... start with Windup Bird Chronicle or Wild Sheep Chase perhaps... if you're interested in literature that is in some way as abstract as Janacek.
@angryfrank: It ranks as one of his best, IMO. It's up there with Wind up Bird, Dance Dance Dance, Kafka and Hard Boiled Wonderland for me. I thought his last two books (After dark and that compilation of short stories) were a bit meh.
this song gives 3 people an odd, wrenching kind of feeling. there is no pain or unpleasantness involved, just a sensation that all of the elements of their bodies are being physically wrought out.
"Aomame imagined 1926 Czechoslovakia [...] they enjoyed the peaceful respite visiting central Europe, people drank Pilsner beer in cafés and manufactured handsome light machine guns [...] at the time no one knew what hardships lay in store for them. This may be the most important proposition revealed by history: 'At the time, no one knew what was coming.' Listening to Janácek's music, Aomame imagined the carefree winds sweeping across the plains of Bohemia."
how charming it is! how wonderful the world is! grandpa haruki (kkk) tell me that the world is (uSually) so hard? but always charming. i learned lot of thin' by his novel. thanks a lot grandpa haruki
It's amazing how popular writters can bring such forgotten music to day light! I'm personally inloved with Murakami's talent and after reading a book I always go here and find music, mentioned in it. It's magical. Thank you, God, for sending us Haruki!
