the jitters in my nerves calmed, and my blood calmed to a dull roar that echoed in my ears amidst the silence. I absentmindedly dipped my fingers in the marble tub of holy water to the right, hit a knee and signed the cross
Finally, there is a terrible tendency for Holmes and Watson (and other “experts” with whom Holmes consults) to rely on what we know today to be pseudo-science. Phrenology—ie the idea that the shape of a person’s skull, face, the bumps on their head, etc.—is in my view the wo...
Block’s Piano Quintet is cast in three movements and is a beautiful example of some of the best post romantic pieces for this chamber grouping. As with the previous works on this recording, this one delights the ear with rich melodic and harmonic gestures that would likely please a chamber ...
