I am an ardent fan
of concerts that are orchestrated with ultimate passion. However, if you ask me
the various instruments that are played in a classical music concert, I may not
name all of them except some of the older ones that include Bach instruments which
are manufactured with very high precision. BTW, do you know that one can buy new
Bach trumpets and its accessories at http://www.guitarcenter.com/Bach.gc,
one of the few places to buy authentic music instruments in the world?
I grew up
listening to some of the wonderful classical music of India and that’s why I
find myself difficult to turn my ears to modern music. Nevertheless, I developed a liking for
western classical only in the late 70s when a travel companion in a train
journey gifted a cassette in return for my offer a bottle of COKE. He was a
young Aussie travelling all over the world by working at places of halt.
My favorite music
instrument is Veena and sitar and of course trumpet played by highly acclaimed
artists in the early 60s. I am sad that modern music instruments pushed several
of the older ones into near oblivion.
