Dark, but not objectionable.
I am a little surprised there have not been a significant number of actual aubades mentioned.
Wow, I had to look it up! I salute you.
You will get me in to trouble for starting this
(turns out I have ranted about this before - search the site for “scunthorpe”).
Still, in this case that is good news - means I could translate Plastic Bertrand into English rather than american and it would let me quote it
I’m not going to, but good to know (unless the english version has rapidly been added to this site’s list of banned words).
I would encourage anyone who likes reading the thoughts of a free thinker to look for Mr. Stephen Fry’s various writings, interviews - and most deliciously, his debates with supporters of Catholicism…
Stephen Fry is one of my favorites. A national treasure.
@Elk, Well here’s the most obvious aubade that comes to mind, but Elk if you could share one that is less common I’d enjoy it!
BTW, the above Vaughan Williams has been my favorite since first obtaining a quality turntable in 1974. I got a late start today due to the snow and morning commitment, so this was not today’s first listen.
Wonderful selection. Great conductor, ensemble, label.
A go-to album in my analog days.
This isn’t one I’ll finish today, Cale’s serotonin deprived approach isn’t sitting well with me.
My first thought is the Poulenc Aubade, although it is not gentle.
There is also the Fauré (song).
I have performed Steven Winteregg’s Aubade, but I doubt there is a recording of it anywhere.
It is fascinating, quite a piece.
New to me, so It has been added to the Qobuz queue.
I quite like this recording and also SOMM recordings in general for their combination of interesting music and stable of really good artists. This recording has pieces that very much sound like Mendelssohn or mid- to late-19th cent. chamber music.
Not sure why I never bought vol. 2. Maybe I read about this album on Gramophone and they spoke highly of it and never looked at the other one.
Yes, I’m going to start with the one you suggested, and then go from there. Great to have suggestions of works I am totally unfamiliar with. Exploring music and a willingness to experiment is part of the fun of this hobby!! Thanks again!
The tango is fun.
