Solemn and Sublime
They were talking about Arcangelo Corelli this morning on WKAR out of East Lansing, Michigan. (And by the way, what a great name: Arcangelo. Why don't people name their sons Arcangelo anymore. Cowards.) So anyway, our good buddy Mark Schwitzgoebel dug up this quote from 1789, by Charles Burney:
The Concertos of Corelli seem to have withstood all the attacks of time and fashion and the effects of the whole [is] so majestic, solemn and sublime that they preclude all criticism.Cool! The Concertos of Corelli are just like the Fredösphere!
Umie the Umlaut says, "ask your doctor about the Fredösphere!"
