Now, in this world of 80% there is one thing that will always keep me going. Music. Sometimes I hear a piece of something so perfect that everything, even the human race, seems worthwhile. This piece below, by John Adams is not for the weak. I think it's amazing. It makes me want to chuck everything and go learn piano. There is a part around 3:45mins that I think may be my theme music. Sort of uncoordinated but with a pounding rhythm, played on two black pianos. Yep that's me.
The audio recording I have, put together for me by Will the music teacher at the kid's school, is much better. I am not sure which recording it is, but it's fantastic. I bought this version, but I don't think its quite as powerful. So here you go, enjoy Hallelujah Junction Part 2. Part 1, is not shabby either. You just have to love the page turners.

Thanks - that was really nice - not a piece that I am familiar with. We are off to RSA tomorrow - should be quite an experience with the whole tribe (14 of us)
Hallo Blacky,
You are right that IS powerful music, decidedly not for the fainthearted.
Now I have to find out who Mr. Adams is.
Thanks.
Georg
