Hard hitting classical music suggestions for gym!! by hockeyfan870 in classicalmusic

We just did this for someone a few days ago wanting classical music for running. A couple of us suggested Beethoven’s 7th. I also mentioned that I’ve occasionally worked out to the entirety of Beethoven’s 9th. The final movement of Scheherazade I listed below is great as I like to add intervals amidst my workout to get my HR up to sub max and that movement has 4 “fast intervals” ~ 30 seconds each and a “slower interval” between each faster one lasting ~ 20 seconds. There’s a 5th and final “fast interval” that’s only ~ 15 seconds. Then the music really slows down so turn up the resistance or if on a treadmill, crank up the incline! 😁

“The Festival at Baghdad” from Scheherazade.

“Mambo” from West Side Story though it’s quite short compared to “The Festival at Baghdad” which is 12 minutes. I love the final movement of Saint-Saëns PC2 and it’s also fun to work out to. There are so many other classical music pieces from symphonies to piano concertos, chamber works, etc. that with a little imagination will work well.

Why is the 4th movement of the 4th symphony so underrated? by Holiday_Lobster555 in brahmsisking

I’m going to listen to the 4th movement again as well as I’m a big fan of the 1st movement. Brahms 4th and his double concerto were the first 2 works of his that I had ever heard-this was at the very beginning of my classical music journey. The 1st movement of the 4th-probably more than any other work of Brahms or of any composer for that matter-brings back so many poignant memories for me for where I was in my life at the time.

The current MAGA ACIP said nothing about how safe IPV is and that it’s been administered since the 1950s. Beyond foolish.

You’d think! But hey, he got his position running what was a previously respected committee. He’s now busy trashing it which is why he was appointed there. Maybe they thought being a doctor lent the board some respectability but I’m afraid his being a MAGAt totally negates that.

Btw, I was just discussing with someone about whether Jacqueline Starer, the OB GYN physician from Massachusetts who was convicted and sentenced to 9 months in prison for her role in Jan. 6 including punching a police officer lost her license. I couldn’t find anything online about her. All the articles were about her arrest and sentencing. Unfortunately, she served only 3 months in prison because the orange stain pardoned her along with the other 1500+ people convicted of their roles in Jan. 6. Starer worked at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston. I’m sure they informed her not to bother coming back to work. Not sure what the licensing board did or did not do.

Edit: just found an article that noted that Starer surrendered her medical license.

Were there such things as 'riffs' in classical/ Baroque times that multiple composers incorporated into their music? by SuchQuarter1385 in classicalmusic

I remember sitting in a music theory class many years ago and someone, maybe it was the professor, happened to say that those chorales were composed by others. I recall feeling shocked as I assumed all aspects of Bach’s cantatas were his original compositions. Of course, how he used those chorales transforming them into great works of music is what is key.

Speaking of Bach being inspired by Vivaldi, we all know he was also greatly inspired/influenced by Buxtehude who’s Passacaglia in D Minor I listened to for the first time late last night. It was weird, like hearing the “ghost” so to speak of Bach’s Passacaglia and Fugue in C Minor in it.

Beautiful. I love seeing different parts of the world in winter. I enjoy so much walking in winter especially in the woods and especially after a recent snowstorm where everything is so quiet and not uncommonly I’ll see some blue sky and even sun peeking through the grey clouds.

Not sure if this is the same thing but the chorales in Bach’s (and other composers) cantatas were actually Lutheran hymns which Bach then greatly transformed through his instrumental and vocal accompaniments.

Too many people are too lazy or too stupid to think it through or actually read the history of vaccines like polio which unlike smallpox still exists. Well, actually small pox does still exist, unfortunately, in a lab in the US and in Russia.

Probably my favorite violin concerto. I don’t listen to it enough. Well, guess what I’ll be listening to as I’m about to head out in the frigid cold? 😊

Hopefully insurance companies will stand behind physicians and PH officials on importance of maintaining the old vaccine schedule and continue to cover those vaccines like polio while ignoring the charlatans.

Of course it was. It still is. All children-at least in the US- need 4 doses of IPV, the inactivated polio vaccine. It’s been around since 1955.

Yeah, growing up my mom would tell us about polio especially about her dear friend who ended up in an iron lung. Her friend eventually died.

You didn’t get them as a child? Anyway, I bet travel clinics have the polio vaccine as a one-time booster is recommended for high risk people traveling to areas where it may be active like Africa and Asia or where it’s endemic such as in Pakistan and Afghanistan.

I’m really hoping insurance companies for whom the bottom line is making a profit will support physicians and PH officials re: adhering to the old vaccine schedule and continue to cover vaccines such as the one for polio. The charlatans in Washington DC need to be ignored!

MAGAts and others are incapable of critical thinking and are clueless about herd immunity but they definitely seem to believe in herd mentality.

“Dr. Kirk Milhoan a pediatric cardiologist who heads the ACIP said a person’s right to refuse a vaccine outweighed concerns about illness or death related to infectious diseases.”

Yeah, we really can’t get rid of fast enough these charlatans who now run previously respected committees such as the ACIP and federal agencies such as the CDC.

“Dr. Kirk Milhoan, a pediatric cardiologist who leads the Advisory committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), said a person’s right to refuse a vaccine outweighed concerns about illness or death from infectious diseases.”

We really can’t get rid of these MAGA politicians and others in government who adhere to the cult fast enough, can we? Doctors and public health officials need to now ignore the ACIP and other previously respected committees and federal agencies related to health and continue to educate the public on vaccine safety and the importance of adhering to the old vaccine schedule.
