Who is your favourite 19th century German classical composer?
Either Schubert or Brahms. Would be Brahms if you count Schubert as an Austrian.

Yes.

Several places, most of which were big cities and great but not particularly "relaxing". :)
― You're Twistin' My Melody Man! (Geir Hongro), Wednesday, 23 March 2011 15:50 (fifteen years ago)
(using other superlatives than "relaxing", I loved Rome, I loved Venice, I loved Barcelona, and - in spite of the weather - I always love London and Copenhagen. Hard to pick, really)

Geir, have you heard Ron Sexsmith? I get the impression he may be better known in Europe than here in America. I saw him the other night and thought his voice and songwriting (somewhere between McCartney and Costello) would be right up your alley.

I am a city guy, and I am sure Glasgow, Dundee or Edinburgh would all be nice. In spite of the weather. :)
― You're Twistin' My Melody Man! (Geir Hongro), Wednesday, 23 March 2011 23:09 (fifteen years ago)
Actually not too familiar with Ron Sexsmith other than the name. The cut above there sounds OK, but something about it sounds a lot more obviously American than McCartney/MacManus.
― You're Twistin' My Melody Man! (Geir Hongro), Wednesday, 23 March 2011 23:10 (fifteen years ago)
I love birdsong this time of year because it means spring or summer. Otherwise not thinking so much of it. :)

No idea, but his last touch of greatness was the "Too Low For Zero" album in 1983.

Ron Sexsmith is Canadian. And right up Geir's alley.
― Josh in Chicago, Thursday, 24 March 2011 00:24 (fifteen years ago)
Yeah, Ron's definitely "melodic" above all else.
