Between that station and the next, they played the Lambada and it was so joyful that by the time they jumped off everybody had a smile on their face. That was nearly 30 years ago, and I still remember it clearly to this day - also with a smile on my face🤗

    The genius of Bolero is that it's basically two melodies repeated over and over using different instruments/groups of instruments in different textures and it stays in the same key (C major) until a few bars before the end where it suddenly moves up to E major, only to come crashing back down to C major in the last few bars. Such a simple idea, but Ravel thought of it first.
    I come back to this performance ever so often and it always has me weeping tears of joy.
    Love it and love the reaction it elicits from the crowd!

Adams was chemist and cellular biologist that quit her career in science to follow her artistic interests. She created "Unraveling Bolero" in 1994 which is a bar-by-bar representation of the song. In 2002 she was diagnosed with progressive primary aphasia. RadioLab has a very good episode that covers both Adams and Ravel.

      I don't play an instrument & I'm slightly tone-deaf (I can't distinguish the sound/notes of some instruments) so, I didn't realize that each repetition was played by a different musical instrument. I finally found this out at a pre-concert talk by the Conductor of my local symphony. That evening's performance took on a whole different meaning for me as I looked toward each instrument's section waiting for it to join in. It was delightful.

      Mine start with the conductor beginning with his hands, and that happy little smile on his face.
      They keep building through the performance, and especially increase with the guy playing the double bass down the escalator. 💖

      Ravel's words: "It constitutes an experiment in a very special and limited direction, and should not be suspected of aiming at achieving anything different from, or anything more than, it actually does achieve. Before its first performance, I issued a warning to the effect that what I had written was a piece lasting seventeen minutes and consisting wholly of 'orchestral tissue without music'-of one very long, gradual crescendo. There are no contrasts, and practically no invention except the plan and the manner of execution."
      He did actually think it was he's only masterpiece, at least is what says the Wikipedia page about Boleró...

    This caused something unusual to happen to me. It brought me to tears. I have two combat tours in Vietnam and generally equate the gathering of people as threatening, and to be avoided.
    What struck me here, was how easily folks, even my tortured generation, could have, should have, gathered to reach the souls of our fellows with something as stirring as music, rather than the insanity of "suppressive fire," as we did so many years ago. I am no idealist, the jungles burned that out of me! But as a pragmatist, I wonder how much longer we can continue to meet each other with increasing lethality, instead of something as easily orchestrated as music.
    This surprise performance should be a blueprint for us to consider, before we stumble blindly into the day, the music died!

      I find most of them an annoyance especially when it's by the road side. Witness it happened a few times, people rush over just to see what's happening.
      Don't get me started on the music video ones. Those are the worst.
      If its a rapper, it'll end up in a fight, public burnouts, etc.
      Music group tends to lengthen the congestion.
      Dance group leaves people standing around or not looking where they're going.

    It's July 30th 2023. For some reason I've been watching Ennio Morricone for the last hour. Which led me here, which reminded me of my 10 year old self wearing headphones listening to my dad's vinyl of Ravels Bolero over 40 years ago. My dad died over 10 years ago. Never really think about him, as he was not a particularly nice man. But strangely, right now I wish more than anything I could speak to him. The power of music will never diminish. 💙
