    I've done some art projects that people really liked.

    My boss thinks I'm the best thing since sliced bread; that he couldn't manage to do his job without me taking some of the burden of administrative duties off his plate.

    A few military awards and letters, and some academic awards from schools. A college professor from whom I was studying Russian language verbally told me he had never had a student learn it so rapidly as I did. A good feeling.

    A group of judges chose me as the winner of a concerto competition.

    I tried to post my favorite, took time to write and post a long answer, tried to post the three movements of the concerto but the second movement would not post and the the first and third movement did post. That's not good enough for me at the moment. I'll maybe answer in a personal message another time. I now have to go for the day. After spending a half hour writing a fun answer and trying to post. I deleted everything what I had posted - - I wanted to do it all, all or nothing. It wasn't good enough for me to answer and not be able to answer in the way I wanted. :)


    Have a great day! I'll get back to you on this.
    :)
    Be Well!

    Here's mine.

    I love the way Gould seems to sing as he is playing. He was incredible.

    Gould is the best part of this to me. :)

    And I need to first say that, unlike so many others, I have never been much of a fan of Beethoven's music. (I know -- I've lived my life seeing people's expressions if I say such a thing.) I most like Beethoven's solo piano works - - they are stunningly gorgeous to me, so I do like some of his music.

    And, I also admit, I only know Gould by his name. Shame on me. I think there were movies made about him, too. But I know next to nothing about him. I like his performance here - - for the same reason you mentioned. I'd even say he dances at times while he sings and plays, too.

    Thanks for sharing this, Element 99! I'm glad I watched and listened.


    And, to answer your question you asked of me, I'm going against what I said the other day -- I know I would be, most likely, unable to post the entire three moments of this concerto, yet, I'll post, at least, the first movement (of three) of my favorite piano concerto.

    My favorite piano concerto is "Concerto No.1 for Piano and Orchestra" by Robert Muczynski.

    This is the first movement -- "Maestoso"


    (I won the concerto competition by playing Muczynski's entire concerto. Again, this is only the first movement. I hope you can check it out. Muczynski's my man.)

    It is late...I will listen to it on youtube. BTW...congratulations on your victory. We had no idea you were a concert pianist.

    I play, yeah, but not so very often at all in a concert setting with an orchestra, though, at all. In fact, once - -  playing this Muczynski concerto.

    But playing is one of my jobs.

    High Disctinction on a philosophical thesis which included references to quantum mechanics (I also scored HD for the semester, only subject where I managed that).
