Dvorak - Humoresque Op. 101 No.7

Dead People In Happier Times - Pictures from my grandmother's photo album. All were taken around 1915-1918. Grandma's not in there, since she took the pictures, but gramps is, as well as my great-great grandparents. There is a woman known only as "Lou" who shows up around 1:57. I think she is stunning, if somewhat sad. People don't change, only the times.

You are correct. That was from my grandmother's snapshot album. The last pages are the boys going off to war. There are no pictures after that, and quite a few were torn out.

It's kind of spooky.

The music gets sort of sad at 1:30 and even more sad when the pretty girl shows up at 1:52, then fades away like a flower, into the mists of time. Very well done, and profound. It's like a story is being told of their lives.

when I played violin my teacher gave me this piece to play but always tried to make me do it so staccato and jumpy that it totally missed the beauty and sadness in the piece. When I first heard it like this I was shocked it could sound so nice! :)

To me, this sounds like Christmas :) I am from Slovakia and this master piece has been used in advert for baking margarine for years over the Christmas period here and since then every time I hear it I can smell mum's Christmas cakes :)
