I find the paintings a little Disneyesque, but the waltz has always been one of my favourites. I adore Khachaturian. Not sure if I can spell him, but I adore him.
Oooh, I love Khatchaturian. I vote for the music over the art. But of course I would. I do love the way it's put together and it pans out and in. Someone did a really good job. (And it still plays while I comment! Love that too.)
i loved both the music and the art - very uplifting and like having a mini-holiday in the middle of my work day. my heart feels really open right now. :)
i may have enjoyed the art a little more, as i believe i recognized venice in some of those pictures, and i also love love love the water. it's funny to me that someone said the pictures were a little disneyesque, because when i was in venice i thought it felt rather like disneyland, i.e., not quite real. i've referred to it as being like disneyland for adults.
Hmm, for me it is definitely the music. It is absolutely AMAZING!! *Sigh* My taste in art tends to lean more toward Da Vinci, Rubens, and Kinkade, heh. But then, that would fit, given my size, lol.
Thank you for this little distraction though, it is very lovely. =o)
Thank you, this is perfect for today, and I happen to love this art, some of the archway shots will be incorporated into this house decor, as it does remind me of a simpler time, a world idealized in my head, when I was always traveling somewhere with nowhere I HAD to be ... and I cannot help but dance to this music.
Bookmarking to slap onto my own LJ soon ... will credit you of course, for the inspiration.
The music and the art were both beautiful, and the video was very well done! I really liked his use of color, particularly for the flowers and the water. And the Khachaturian waltz was rich and full of romance... just what I would imagine Italy would be like.
This has seemed like a very long week at school, so a virtual spring break was a perfect little respite. Thanks!
