My favourite Sibelius 5, but I do wish there was a digital remaster of this. The recording is a bit distorted. Cc @loveinner.bsky.social @deeplyclassical.bsky.social

While the other members of Yes never really got out together without him, Jon Anderson keeps going from strength to strength.

A question that comes up from time to time when talking with physicists is: what might be interesting about Promise Theory for them? I wrote a short overview for a physics audience. mark-burgess-oslo-mb.medium.com/what-might-p...

What if we turn the world view upside down? At a time of religious dominion, we modelled the world as external forces compelling agents to behave in a passive container. But how does it look if we accept that change is determined independently at each point? 1/2

Good points in this article

Love this every time, like listening to a scored Jules Verne adventure telling of Charles Darwin 's Origin of Species ... Cc @loveinner.bsky.social @deeplyclassical.bsky.social

Shostakovich died 50 years ago, on 9th August 1975. The unbearable emotional tension between his need to express himself as an authentic artistic voice and the need to survive the demands of Stalin’s regime underlines the power of his music. What are your favourite Shostakovich recordings?

1. This is a thread introducing part 1/2 of my musical audiobook project: SLOGANS (The End of Sympathy, The Art of Control). It's a new project, unrelated to last year's audiobook story: The Note. This is something much bigger.

Always liked this collection, cc @loveinner.bsky.social , @deeplyclassical.bsky.social @ryanmross.bsky.social

The great genius of pre 20th C philosophers was to reduce many difficult concepts to pragmatic and self-consistent representations, essentially by dimensional analysis. We take so much of that work for granted today that many only see these definitions as unquestionable truths.

This Prokofiev 7 is really nice, and the 6 is pretty good too. Cc @loveinner.bsky.social @deeplyclassical.bsky.social
