self-proclaimed rach-nut here … always found his compositions somber and deep … eliciting myriad of emotions from within.
as for myself … raised with music background (mostly classical) … being the moron ebullient (archaic transitive), i just hung around the music-dept at school … rather than pursuing anything worth-while (occupation-wise). upon graduation … torturing those musical instruments seemed a distant memory. i dabbled in several different "careers" … wasn't until late 20's photo-offset-lithography sunk its fangs into me … been involved with variants from then on. now, turning age 60, rachmaninoff has foraged inside my soul. and, with a weary staff … i walk into the gathering dusk.
thank you.
