  • 1] I am one of the most calm people I know. 2] I think you need to develop a sense of what makes great music great. 3] Anyone who supports this drivel as art music needs rehabilitation.

  • I was just giving you a hard time. It's an opinion, you can hate Rorem if you'd like....but palpably he he has done pretty well and has done something right.

    I hated the music at first, but ended up appreciating it. It's not a Beethoven String Quartet, or a Mahler 'Lied', or one of Schubert's Lieder, or a Brahms Symphony - but it WORKS. It portrays the text with a continual and never ceasing accompaniment that offers the vocalist a consistent and perpetual foundation to sing upon.

  • @npa589 If you DID know 'who I am' would that make any difference?

  • @organman52

    You really have some serious issues. I don't even know who you are.

    I'd remove your comments, but I think the fact that you try so hard to broadcast yourself as a fool is admirable, so I'll let your comments continue to sit.

  • Better than "great job"! Young man, you have a fine foundation. What are you doing now, may I ask? I am a drammatic soprano and have been intending on doing this cycle in concert for years. Finally, I'm preparing now, looked on youtube and was so impressed by your voice, technique, and understanding of the musical/poetic lines. Are you in a singing career now? Do tell....

  • @npa589 Oh I see - it 'works.' Do Brahms' symphonies 'work?' Do Schubert's lieder 'work?'

  • @Sesquiltera And you are still stupid?

  • @Sesquiltera The truth REALLY gets to you, doesn't it?

  • @organman52 ....and I am never a fan of a c*ntsucker.

  • @organman52 : You're such a f*ckface, I argued so much with you. Endlessly I see your stupid comments here on Youtube. You are such a buffoon. I wipe my ass with your brains.

  • What's the range on this song?
