About Composers

You will notice that I've removed the News pages. Firstly Moreover advised that they are discontinuing their newsfeed service and the call for the others was minimal.

The Marriage of Figaro is the first opera I've put on this website. I will probably do more if time allows it.

As you saw when you first entered my site I have for you pages on:

Now if you are interested in my other interests you can visit that page at my place (ardenas-place.com), and then there are short bios and pictures and links for:

Authors of the books I've read - starting with my favourites.

Actors starting with my favourites and favourite films

For virtually my whole life I have lived with classical music. I remember when we got our first record player. My dad played music by Handel, Mozart, and a while later we started hearing music by Brahms (at first I didn't like his music).

First of all I just enjoyed the music, I have always wanted to make music (but not composing) and you will find this here, and also over the years I have wanted to know about the composers. So now I am bringing to you short biographies of composers - first my favourites and then eventually many more.

I have just today heard a most beautiful piece of music by Handel. You can see a YouTube video of it right here.
