I bet Maestro Milton thought he was meant for higher things when he signed this contract.
There’s a very touching article by a doctor in todays Guardian telling how terrible and exhausting it has been for all hospital staff and how appalling it is when morons attack her and all medics verbally and on social media claiming that there is no such thing as Covid 19 and that all hospitals are empty.
The doctor is Rachel Clarke who works in a NHS general hospital. She was the guest in Private Passions on Radio 3 last Sunday (January 31). It was compulsive listening.
How cute. A pops concert. Is it all John Williams? I ducked out after a few minutes of Superman.
I found it also unlistenable and cut it after a minute. ‘Mit guten Absichten aber infantil peinlich.’ For children however, it must be very attractive.
I wonder why they always use classical music and symphony orchestras/choruses in today’s Hollywood films. Most moviegoers pay no attention to the soundtrack other than big explosions and ‘scare’ sound effects.
I like those Latex-fingers going into the doctor’s eyes during Da Vinci Code.
