Ah, it’s getting closer, isn’t it? My little ones’ costumes have arrived (via UPS, dahlings…Dahlia despises retail shopping and who would give up a chance to see the kinda hot UPS man dropping off a package?) and the candy corn is in the house. A chill is in the air and Blogtoberfest continues. Y’all still with me, I hope, because this is testing me to the limits. Blogging every day? Yikes! But it’s been 13 days and so far so good.
I’ve got on my big headphones today, you know the ones, and I’m sending you some intellectually spooky tunes to create the perfect background for you and your Halloween celebrations. Whether it’s playing in the background or you are actively listening, these pieces are sure to raise the hair on the back of your neck.
Shall we begin?
Franz Liszt: Fantasy and Fugue on “B-A-C-H”…..no not that Bach:
In music, the BACH motif is the motif, a succession of notes important or characteristic to a piece, B flat, A, C, B natural. In German musical nomenclature, in which the note B natural is written as H and the B flat as B, it forms Johann Sebastian Bach‘s family name. (from Wikipedia)
GYÖRGY LIGETI – Volumina – Pieces of his music were used in the film 2001: A Space Odyssey.
This such a classic, I couldn’t ignore it:
Bach, Toccata and Fugue in D Minor
Another classic –
Mussorsky – Night on Bald Mountain
Last, but not least, one of my favorites…the trilling flutes, the ominous lower reeds and the muted brass give you the chill you desire…and don’t forget all those creepy broomsticks.

Boo!

Hey would you mind letting me know which hosting company you’re working with?
I’ve loaded your blog in 3 completely different browsers and I must say
this blog loads a lot faster then most. Can you
suggest a good web hosting provider at a fair price? Thank you, I appreciate it!
Greetings from Ohio! I’m bored at work so I decided to browse your
website on my iphone during lunch break. I really like the knowledge you provide here and
can’t wait to take a look when I get home. I’m amazed at how quick your blog loaded on my mobile ..
