here's the link to listen to it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bINSmhssRRs
I know that for this task I was asked to choose a song... But instead I prefer to choose my favorite melody. I have to admit I listen the full version just a moth ago but, since then there’s no second in my life in witch I m not listing to it in my mind and feeling it in every part of my nerves.
This melody is from a French composer, Claude Debussy, here these some information I got from wikipedia to share with you Clair de Lune illustrates Debussy's delicate compositional style. Because Debussy did not rely on key-based melody lines and accompanying harmony, his pieces are lush, impressionistic, and often suggest dreamlike qualities. The tranquil Clair de Lune evokes a peaceful, moonlight night. Achille-Claude Debussy (August 22, 1862 – March 25, 1918) was a French composer. Along with Maurice Ravel he is considered the most prominent figure working within the style commonly referred to as Impressionist music, though he himself intensely disliked the term when applied to his compositions. Debussy was not only among the most important of all French composers but also a central figure in all European music at the turn of the twentieth century. His music virtually defines the transition from late-Romantic music to twentieth century modernist music. In French literary circles, the style of this period was known as Symbolism, a movement that directly inspired Debussy both as a composer and as an active cultural participant.
Im not sure how to describe everything about this melody, the first time I listen to it, I seem more like a melody I would spect to listen at a romantic movie like Pride and Prejudice or Romeo and Juliet ( just to let you know both are my favorites classic novels) but then … when I was in the blue and just to weak to stand all the height of the world and my shoulders I listen to it again and I find a soft but deep suport , as if it was telling me “you’ll be fine , just .. go on” and as I close my eyes every problem sorrunding me desapear ( I mean , of course it ‘s not like they simple vanish !) But I fell so much better.
There’s something so magical about it , it’s like a life soundtrack , it goes up and down , faster , and suddenly slower … and sometimes it surprise you , and that fells so good. You may even fell a little bit spoilted by the melody (if you liked it of course) because you never get tired of it and everytime you can find something new that you haven’t really payed attention before because you were waiting for your favorite part.
But what I love the most about it id the way it makes my skin fell it ,bristling it
, like the most smooth caress from a mother or the sweetest kiss from a lover .
It has so much drama and at the same time so much peace... it has became in my cable to earth and at the same time it raises my up to the sky and make me wonder what it’s like out there and wish for more …
