Let’s finish this week with a few select pieces of music that celebrate the weather – the rains have returned. It’s the perfect thing to sit during the post-Thanksgiving – meal -stupor and listen to them, enchanted by the creativity that went into these sound inventions capturing the weather and by the technical skill and musicality of those playing these pieces. Not included is the warhorse of them all, Chopin’s Raindrop Pr\u00e9lude; as always, I was more inclined to explore off the beaten path.<\/p>\n

In no particular oder, (other than the first one, my favorite right now for obvious reasons, birds, fall, empty landscapes)<\/p>\n

and accompanied by photographs from a rain soaked walk yesterday where I had 635 acres of wetland preserve all to myself, with astounding glimpses of color in a gray landscape, a few oblivious birds, and reminders of the fragility of life,<\/p>\n
