Good evening ladies and gentlemen, welcome to SDA Late Nite Radio. Tonight, for your delectation, here is Mr. Evgeny Kissin performing Sergei Vasilievich Rachmaninoff‘s Prelude, Op. 23, N° 5 ¤, in G minor (3:45). Fans of Rachmaninoff or this Prelude may wish to visit our September 15, 2008 SDA Late Nite Radio show, where we featured Sviatoslav Richter’s version thereto, and some interesting quotes from Rachmaninoff and Richter.

Your Reader Tips are, as always, welcome in the comments.

  3. As an avid non-Mac user I was checking to see if Al Gore had his paws on any other major company. Didn’t know he worked for Google. Great. Now I need to find another search engine. At least this kind of explains why Google autocomplete is such a scam.
    First off Google seems to be giving free advertising to Demos.
    Second, Gore seems to be BFF with the founders.
    Then again, I never did trust newsbusters that much, and it is very late, and the headache and Advil might be getting to me.

  4. Thanks Vit, but I prefer Jerry Lee Lewis and the fire shooting out of the piano. Must admit–Mr. Kissin did fill the house!!

  5. Thanks for weighing in once again on the matter of your opinion of the evening’s song selection, Joe Citizen! Every single day, we all wait with bated breath to see what your verdict is on the evening’s musical selection!
    It’s important that you let us know what you think, and for one simple reason: no other SDA reader who has their own take on any given musical selection would ever refrain from providing it! That means – yes, that’s right – you’re the only one with an opinion!
    That’s why we need to hear it! Every time out!

  8. Well yes, that is, undeniably, quite a house, Vitruvius. It weren’t built by monkeys.

  12. Death: Nature’s way of telling you that the consensus is in!
    “Famed global warming activist James Schneider and a journalist friend were both found frozen to death on Saturday, about 90 miles from South Pole Station, by the pilot of a ski plane practicing emergency evacuation procedures. ”

  18. Cal2’s 10:40 link:
    “Support for closing Guantanomo has dropped 12 points over the past 14 months, a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey indicates.
    “Shortly before Obama’s inauguration, 51 percent of Americans said they thought the facility in Cuba should be closed. Now that number is down to 39 percent, and six in ten believe the United States should continue to operate Guantanamo.”

  21. Wonderful, I guess … perhaps preludes are not my thing, Though I do like Debussy’s, and am listening to him even as we speak! That said one hopes he earned enough to get a haircut? Okay! Okay!, but one wonders whether it is absolutely necessary for the geniuses (geniui?) to have an eccentricity in order to produce and succeed, or whether they could do it without being odd? Did Dolly Parton make the big time because/despite Porter Wagoner and the boob job, or could she have made it on her talent, or is it we, the listening public who are so shallow? I know what you’re going to say!

    CNN and MSNBC are all over this “Christian Rightwing Militias”story coming out of MI.
    Now its Christian Right Wingers that the FBI has been tracking…along with the Southern Poverty Law Center…makes all of the prelude and all of the talk about right wing hatred and rage very interesting.
    The tinming is all coincidental, I’m sure.”

  27. Evgeni Kissin’s performance is excellent – although
    I think that of Sviatoslav Richter is the best –
    even better than Rachmaninoff’s.

  32. Lovelock: “I don’t think we’re yet evolved to the point where we’re clever enough to handle a complex a situation as climate change” [verbatim from linked article]
    If we’re not clever enough to handle it, we’re probably not clever enough to prove that it exists in the first place.
