Advantages: Beautifully hypnotic music from the master of floating ambient piano Disadvantages: It is a very short CD indeed
Effortlessly graceful and dreamlike, Music for 3 Pianos is quintessentially Harold Budd. Admittedly his two partners in music should not be ignored but it is clearly Budd's input that is the greatest: the floating, hauntingly minimalist piano style and lyrical drift is his alone. I have nothing by either Ruben Garcia or Daniel Lentz, though Lentz has recorded on the Cold Blue Music label (as I believe did Budd briefly in the early 80s), the music of which mirrors Budd's slightly in its haunting simplicity and minimalist approach, with soloist often multi-tracking their recordings (similarly they are usually about 20 minutes per CD). In many ways Music for 3 Pianos sounds like a multi-tracked album. The three pianos could often be Budd's playing overlaid on two base recordings to generate additional depth.
Thus the sound ...
Advantages: Excellent physcological study of character. Disadvantages: Grim, brutal, shocking scenes of a sexual nature.
The Piano Teacher
The Piano Teacher is a subtitled film of the Phycological Drama genre. Released in 2001 it is also known by it's French name La pianiste. Directed by Michael Haneke, it is based on the novel by Die Klavierspielerin which won a Nobel Prize for Literature in 2004.
Graphic in it's content this film delves into the darker side of sex, including fetishism, bondage, and sado/masochism. It also touches
on the delicate subject of genitalia self harm. This is not a light film, and is not recommended for family viewing. ~

ones. For example, if I wanted a Rico number 3, I would buy a Vandoren 2 , in order to get the same sound.
Rico also have a Royal and a premium range which are a little more expensive but certainly last longer. The best place to buy these and to try out the range is in a big music store, or online at somewhere like Gear for Music. Rico also do a plastic coated reed which is harder to get used to but lasts a lot longer and you don?t have to worry about breaking it in before you can play.
Every clarinet player has their own favourite brand and strength of reed, but I prefer to use a fairly soft one and to change reeds very often, so the low price of the Rico standard ones certainly suits me best. I would rather have a ready supply of cheap, fresh reeds, that try to play with a split reed to save buying new ones.
Rico reeds are ...
