I was listening to Classic FM this afternoon and they played ' Elizabethan Serenade' composed by Ronald Binge.

Now, apart from Binge being the most awful name, the music was beautiful; it had me drifting, dreaming, floating over snow covered mountains and picking and eating wild blueberries. Then somebody banged me on the head and said my phone had been ringing for 10 minutes !

Bollo*ks ! It's only just over 3 minutes long !

In reply to Deviant:

If you like Binge, then try Albert W Ketelbey (yes, really!)

In reply to Toreador:

I know 'In A Persian Market' but haven't explored his other work, which at your suggestion, I now will !

In reply to Deviant: "In a monastary garden".

In reply to Deviant:

I've just been listening to André Rieu's version of 'Elizabethan Serenade' - I think it's rather good !

In reply to Deviant:

Commiserations

In reply to Deviant:
"Sailing By" is another lovely one of his.

In reply to Toreador:

I don't know why so many classical-music lovers dislike André Rieu ! I play Grade 8 piano and have many musician friends who equally appreciate what André Rieu produces. He has a sound and style that millions enjoy; so what if it is restricted to 'the most popular end of classical-music !
