Â Absolutely! I didn't get to see Jimi live or even Jethro Tull. Wishbone Ash was great live. Uriah Heep made one great album. Â The greatest guitar players I have seen are: Santana and Alvin Lee. Â I saw Jimmy Rogers before he passed on and his lead guitar player was kick ass! Don't know his name. Jimmy was so old he had to sit in a chair and be helped off the stage.

Gerard Posted February 24, 2011 More goodies.  In this case Chopin's genius on the piano in the Funeral March:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmWLyp_o7S4   The Russian romantic composer Rimsky-Korsakov and his exquisite Scheherazade (also called Arabian Nights). I hope this song helps Islamic countries to have their problems sorted out soon. Prayers to them:   إن شاء الله Inshallah! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KCHooligan Posted February 24, 2011 My favorite enlightened music for serene listening is "Godspeed: You Black Emporer!" Â They provided the soundtrack to the movie "28 Days Later". A group of young Canadian indies that make 20 minute post-modern contemporary classical tracks using eclectic audio sampling of spoken word, ect., to intensify the music. Â My favorite enlightened live music is currently Gogol Bordello. Only concert that demands everyone dance. You really don't have a choice! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gerard Posted January 31, 2012 (edited)  Flamenco. Music that was created by Muslim Andalusians who stayed in Spain and mixed with the Romani newcomers when the Spanish reclaimed their land back in the XV century when the The Catholic Monarchs, Ferdinand of Aragon and Isabella of Castile, got married in 1649, event that signaled the launching of the final assault on the Emirate of Granada (Gharnatah). The King and Queen convinced the Pope to declare their war a crusade. The Christians crushed one center of resistance after another and finally, in January 1492, after a long siege, the Moorish sultan, Muhammad XII, surrendered the fortress palace, the renowned Alhambra, itself.  Let me share some of the modern artists that helped to define this soul-driven and powerful music:  La Familia Montoya   La Familia Vargas   Lole (from la Familia Montoya) y Manuel  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQP414MTo8Q    Camaron de la Isla  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dIueBl56MV8  La Niña De Los Peines  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TX_Ro_RzOcQ   Paco de Lucia  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYkz30RL_GU Edited February 1, 2012 by Gerard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gerard Posted January 31, 2012 (edited) In essence Flamenco is a music with deep roots in the Sufi (via the Andalusian Muslims) and Hindu (via the Romani people who are descendants of low caste groups who made a living by singing and music and based in the modern Indian State of Rajasthan, eventually migrated to Central Asia and Europe) traditions.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9SVsnmTWgo&feature=related   Enjoy!

Chang Posted January 31, 2012 (edited) There was a time when for me enlightened music would have meant Vivaldi or Mozart. Â Now it would have to be the unaccompanied simplicity of the shakuhachi. Â Edited January 31, 2012 by Chang Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gerard Posted June 23, 2012 (edited) When I listen to this I just feel close to the Divine, the source of the Spirit:   Baroque period, truly magnificent.  Bononcini: Aria Affettuoso-Rittornello from cantata Mentre in Placido Sonno performed by male soprano Radu Marian.  Handel, his compositions were superb. One example:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jiq0meAPOgs  Aria Lascia ch'io Pianga, from opera Rinaldo. Edited June 23, 2012 by Gerard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gerard Posted June 24, 2012 (edited) I have no words for Mozart's divine work: Â Â Â Ruhe sanft, mein holdes Leben (Gently rest, my dearest love) from Zaide. Edited June 24, 2012 by Gerard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gerard Posted June 28, 2012 Some more beautiful arias:    Vissi d'arte - Tosca ♥    Un bel di vedremo - Madama Butterfly Whoa!    Donna non vidi mai - Manon Lescaut    Nessun Dorma - Turandot  All from various Puccini's operas.   Baroque era:   Vivaldi.   Finish with some Medieval stuff:    Palestrina was very close to the Source. Unreal music! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
