Concerto for Violins, Strings, and Continuo - Giuseppe Tartini

Another addition to the classical music illustration series...

This picture illustrates the beautiful Violin Concerto in A, just one of the 125 violin concertos that Tartini composed. The music really did remind me of a magnificent ballet. It was light and sincere so that it spoke to the listener, a characteristic I simply adore in this composer's works.

Important Notice

Today was the date of Mozart's death. He died at 12:05 am.

The City

This picture was a fun little experiment I did. It was actually drawn with a leaky pen and tweaked in Photoshop.

Picture I Drew Today at Lunch with my Friend Melody

Suite Hébraïque Rhapsody

Did this on Thursday. I was feeling sort of mysterious and sad so that is what the picture reflects. Plus, I was playing "Suite Hébraïque Rhapsody" through in my head. This picture is therefore another illustration for it.

My Idol...

Okay, I admit that this is a REALLY old picture but I just remembered it. Can you guess who it is? I'll give you a few hints:

-He lived in the 18th century

-Played viola (like me!) as well as violin

-Wrote his first piece at 4, his first symphony at 7 and his first opera at 12

-There is a saying that God's angels play Bach but in secret they prefer this composer...

-He wrote a Requiem which is considered to be the best piece ever written

-He died at 35 years old of unknown cause and no one knows where he was buried

-He sometimes called himself Trazom

-His wife's name is Constanze

-Everyone has heard of him

-(this is the give-away if you haven't realized already...) His name starts with the letter M

To the One Who Inspired Me with His Violin Today...

After a Dream (A French Song)

This is a beautiful musical piece that is sung in French or is played on viola (I'm playing it now). It is about a woman who wakes up and finds that the dream in which she is reunited with her love is a lie. She desperately begs the dream to return, asking at the end "Reviens! Reviens! Reviens!!!". This piece is very emotional and I tried to convey that in this portrait of the woman.
