Portrait Of The Goddess (Musical Mythology) - Celeste Alayne

Advantages: Contrasting programme music unified by a recurring theme
Disadvantages: None

...all the way through the piece. A trumpet rendition of the Promendade theme accompanied by descant violins forces the viewer onward. In the Tuileries Gardens, lively woodwinds mirror the playful infants within the painting. A string trio reflects the gossiping nannies who watch over the infants / woodwind. A solo Euphonium is used to represent the Bydlo( a polish ox-cart) of the next painting Promenade 4. High woodwind and celeste playing the Promenade theme, daydreamingly advance the music and viewer. Ballet of the Unhatched Chicks, sketches for the ballet Trilbi, is comical. The piano takes precedence and produces a fitting and delightful portrayal. The next paintings comparing and contrasting two Polish Jews, rich and poor, Samuel Goldenberg and Schmuyle, are two pencil drawings. Ravel uses full strings playing in unison... Read review

Advantages: none
Disadvantages: robotic not technically music

...My opinion of Slipknot could adequately be summed up in just one word - talentless. But fear not, I shall elaborate. A bit. Their lyrics are turgid, putrid and full of gratuitous obscenities. Any understanding of them is completely obliterated by a wild, thrashing noise, incessant and incomprehensible. There is no structure, no apparent thought, no talent, absolutely nothing to them. I would rather listen to Daphne and Celeste than this clueless rabble. There can surely be no greater damnation. As if that isn't bad enough, the cover is a disgusting abomination. It cleary wants to be groundbreaking, but just lapses into tastelessness. If you like abusing your CD player, and your ears, buy this. If you like music to sound like music, and not someone torturing a cat while being violently ill, do not under any circumstances even... Read review
