#281 Patrick Doyle - Fate and Destiny


-Why?
I was driving away from my hometown to Tallinn with my ex-classmate today. We were just bla-bla-bla-ing most of the time and didn't listen to any music, but as he wanted to stop at a grocery's just before entering a city, I stayed in a car and turned on music. I was pretty surprised when I heard *this* kind of music coming out of the speakers. I would have never expected he listens to something like this. And there I sat alone - rain had just stopped, sun rising in the offing and "Fate and Destiny" playing out loud. What a beautiful little moment of life to enjoy. When he returned and we drove on, I mentioned that this gorgeous music sounds like a fairy Tale. " It *is* from a movie," he specified. At this moment, we turned into an avenue, lined with oaks. God, that music passed into this situation so bad, like there was a miracle going to come after an every crossroad. No more comments needed. Just listen. I am glad to add some other tags than "indie" or "electronic" to my post after a long while.

#59 Arvo Pärt - Für Alina



Meaninful song on the day I started my next level German lessons. Yep, it's instrumental, composed by estonian, named in German.

Among living contemporary composters, Arvo Pärt is the most performed composer for the third year running, states the largest classical event finder online - Bachtrack. http://bachtrack.com/2013-stats?destination=%2F  If that sounds irreverent, then sorry - if there is something or someone very outstanding among our 1,3 million population, it's not a shame to point it out rather to be proud of :)
