I'm not sure the group is still together, but they did some great CDs. I think you'd like the themes in the one Tim tells me is titled Enigma - really cool with some Gregorian chanting-type parts.deannahttp://deannahershiser.com/stories-glimmernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229875339727095184.post-71089528155535007222010-01-20T12:40:25.973-06:002010-01-20T12:40:25.973-06:00BINK: A ruined cathedral--yes, even better!BINK: A ruined cathedral--yes, even better!Frescahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323129046492056942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229875339727095184.post-44606906338893516072010-01-19T12:07:06.294-06:002010-01-19T12:07:06.294-06:00It's tragic and full of longing for something ...It's tragic and full of longing for something that was or is too be.

I'd never heard that, thanks. (And thanks for the compliment too.) Choosing the music for a movie, even these little ones, is so powerful--it sets or changes the mood so entirely.<br />Maybe one day I'll take a scrap of image and set it to different music to experiment with how it changes, depending on the music.<br /><br />Hi DEANNA! What's Enigma? I only know that as a title of a movie about code-crackers in WWII England.Frescahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323129046492056942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229875339727095184.post-86432591330517155112010-01-18T19:44:24.383-06:002010-01-18T19:44:24.383-06:00I like this - I put it on full screen and just wat...I like this - I put it on full screen and just watched the video first, because my son's playing Enigma in the background, and that music went with the mood, also somehow. I'll come back for the Beethoven.

The colored lights glow and change in an industrial setting, and then blurry light glows through. It seems at odds with the music, except that the closing hour at a club can be very trance-like.KMHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06631441508718349096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229875339727095184.post-26080489558215153872010-01-18T10:05:25.987-06:002010-01-18T10:05:25.987-06:00Hi, Crow and Margaret:

How nice to see you two already got there.<br /><br />Crow: I think your summation is much what I feel. I arranged the clips from darkest to lightest (with a slight tapering off at the end) to fit the music's arc.<br /><br />As for music: I mostly only know the Top 100 Classical Hits--and then, mostly from movies! <br />(This Beethoven piece--the "allegretto" of his 7th symphony--is famous--I'm sure it's in lots of movies.)<br /><br />I like it too, Margaret. (And that's enough in itself.)

I especially like how the music builds toward the end when the images are those taken outside the translucent plastic sheeting, the lights shining through - almost as the Light Within shines through us. The background traffic sounds made me think we were hurtling through space, the recurring whoooshing - or listening to our own heartbeats, the blood rushing along at precisely measured beats, like the music flowing through consciousness.<br /><br />Aw...what do I know?<br /><br />Good stuff, Fresca!The Crowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04846997590157958766noreply@blogger.com
