Bach As Teacher -Cöthen Period Keyboard Wks

THE PIANO TEACHER - (LA PIANISTE)

Advantages: Excellent physcological study of character.
Disadvantages: Grim, brutal, shocking scenes of a sexual nature.

Haneke is well known for implementing the shock element into his films. He likes to leave his audience felling unsettled. Cinematography is brilliant with subdued colouring reflecting the drabness of Ericas life, and the greyness of the storyline. I have watched this film a few times now, and with each viewing I am stunned by the perfection of Isabelle Hupperts performance. Annie Girardot as the mother also gives a strong, convincing performance with the elements of smothering, and control in the right balance. In my opinion, I think this is a great film. It won many awards, and well deserved accolades. The Piano teacher has a very basic storyline,contains subtitles, and is very graphic in it's content, so it will not be to everyones taste. The musical score is brilliant throughout with the of sonatas Schuman, Schubert Bach ...

Review of The Piano Teacher

Dr Bach rescue remedy

Advantages: A natural way to heal and help emotional well being
Disadvantages: None

Dr Bach`s Rescue remedy has been a blessing for my daughter this year,she suffered from severe post-natal depression and hoped to overcome it with the support of family and friends rather than using prescribed medication. We both believe in Homeopathic remedies and often turn to the Internet for advice on herbal treatments.

So armed with some knowledge gained from www.internethealthlibrary.com and assistance from the staff at Holland and Barrett,Evie decided she would try the Dr Bach Rescue Remedy. Where prescribed medicine made Evie wary,the Rescue remedy was a safe option. The whole idea is to choose the Bach flower remedy that is a suitable match for how you may feel. There are 5 types to choose from,they are ...

Review of Dr. Bach Rescue Remedy

Back to back Bach.

Advantages: Beautiful relaxing music. Rich instrumentation. Played with passion.
Disadvantages: Not all instruments are from the period.

works by Bach. This was not always the case however. They were originally not very well received. Johann Sebastian Bach, one of the giants of the baroque period, presented the set of concertos as a gift to the Margrave Christian Ludwig of Brandenburg in 1721. The Margrave never even acknowledged the gift let alone thanked Bach for his work. For the next thirteen years, the concertos were to languish in the marquis' library untouched. It was only on his death, that they were then released and shared with the public. There are many, many recordings of the Brandenburg concertos. This particular album is a 1959 recording of Yehudi Menuhin and the Bath Festival Orchestra published in May, 1995 by Emi Classical. Can a recording from nearly 50 years ago possibly stand the test of time? The simple answer is yes it can and does so superbly ...
