Opus_Maximus 1000 Post Club Member Registered: 11/27/04 Posts: 1146 Loc: Windhoek	Amazed to learn that the 19th century writer, Boris Pasternak (Writer of Dr. Zhivago), aspired first to be a composer and was close with Scriabin and Rachmaninoff. Here is his piano sonata.....no mean feat.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p889zT1SKsc

Interesting combination of talents. _________________________ Composers manufacture a product that is universally deemed superfluous—at least until their music enters public consciousness, at which point people begin to say that they could not live without it.

dannylux 1000 Post Club Member Registered: 02/15/06 Posts: 1766 Loc: Connecticut	Pasternak's two Intermezzi (1906), eb minor and g# minor are both very Scriabinesque. The second one is especially beautiful.

Gyro 4000 Post Club Member Registered: 04/24/05 Posts: 4521	This seems to show why the concept of the Renaissance Man is dead. After the Renaissance, the world became place for specialists only. If you try to master more than one field, you never become dominant in either.

Batuhan 500 Post Club Member Registered: 09/21/09 Posts: 810 Loc: Istanbul	Originally Posted By: antony Just curious as to how you could be composing an opus 71 and an opus 5 simultaneously There is no sequence discrimination in Opus number. So Op. 5 is not include my first set of composition's. My first set of composition's include in Op. 24. I cant indicate it in my signature due to limit.
