Thank you
Thanx, Thomas🌹🌹🌹
I have another request. Could you do a video Joseph Boulogne, Chevalier de Saint Georges? I know you have been doing female composers recently....but do this one pretty plz : )
My request queue is-as I suspected!-been filling up. I'll put it in, but between extant requests and summer vacationing, I'll have to warn that it might be a little while yet.
1:55 "Perhaps more than he should have been."
I won't lie. I clicked on this video with the sole hope of hearing this. I've no interest in Alma; i just wanted to see Gustav being done justice to.
I would love to see a video on Colin McPhee, the first musicologist to study the music of Bali
McPhee is in the request pool, but it'll be a while. (I actually perform in a Balinese Gamelan ensemble, so it's of special interest to me as well!)
Forgive my ignorance. I was vaguely aware of Alma because of her marriage to Gustav but had little knowledge of her otherwise. I am not entirely sure that I am any the better for knowing more about her as a result of your inevitably excellent video but that is by no means your fault and thank you for all your work. Blessings and peace

@@mhroe Thanks
@@georgealderson4424 even Adorno called her a monster
@@mhroe ...yet she must have had some attraction as she seemed to go through husbands like a hot knife through butter!
Your turnaround is impressive! Did you work ahead or do you really produce a video a day?
I started this female composers project in late November of last year and uploaded the last one in mid-February. Depending on my schedule, I generally filmed in bunches-up to four videos-and then edited and uploaded as time allowed.
It was quite a significant undertaking; generally, a video a week is as much as my schedule allows.
Ah ok, I already really start to wonder how you managed it. a video week already sounds quite a lot of work, especially considering that you probably have to do a lot of research with conflicting facts and such. (I currently I'm working on a script too, still don't really know if in video or write form, but it's really hard work and it make me appreciate this kind of work ever more.)
