Lachen Und Weinen
"Lachen und Weinen" (Laughing and Weeping) is a Lied composed by Franz Schubert in 1822 and published in 1826. It is D. 777 in Otto Erich Deutsch's catalog. The text is from Friedrich Rückert's collection of poems, ' (Eastern Roses), which was highly influenced by the poetry of the Persian poet Hafis. The poem was untitled in the collection, so Schubert named it after the beginning words. The tempo marking is (Somewhat fast). Throughout the song, major and minor tonal fluctuations between A-flat major and A-flat minor reflect Schubert's impression of the meanings of the words. Text Lachen und Weinen zu jeglicher Stunde Ruht bei der Lieb auf so mancherlei Grunde. Morgens lacht' ich vor Lust; Und warum ich nun weine Bei des Abendes Scheine, Ist mir selb' nicht bewusst. Weinen und Lachen zu jeglicher Stunde Ruht bei der Lieb auf so mancherlei Grunde. Abends weint' ich vor Schmerz; Und warum du erwachen Kannst am Morgen mit Lachen, Muss ich dich fragen, o Herz.Saya, Virginia, ...

Julius Drake
The gens Julia (''gēns Iūlia'', ) was one of the most prominent patrician families in ancient Rome. Members of the gens attained the highest dignities of the state in the earliest times of the Republic. The first of the family to obtain the consulship was Gaius Julius Iulus in 489 BC. The gens is perhaps best known, however, for Gaius Julius Caesar, the dictator and grand uncle of the emperor Augustus, through whom the name was passed to the so-called Julio-Claudian dynasty of the first century AD. The Julius became very common in imperial times, as the descendants of persons enrolled as citizens under the early emperors began to make their mark in history.''Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology'', vol. II, pp. 642, 643. Origin The Julii were of Alban origin, mentioned as one of the leading Alban houses, which Tullus Hostilius removed to Rome upon the destruction of Alba Longa. The Julii also existed at an early period at Bovillae, evidenced by ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Major And Minor
In Western music, the adjectives major and minor may describe a chord, scale, or key. As such, composition, movement, section, or phrase may be referred to by its key, including whether that key is major or minor. Intervals Some intervals may be referred to as ''major'' and ''minor''. A major interval is one semitone larger than a minor interval. The words ''perfect'', ''diminished'', and ''augmented'' are also used to describe the quality of an interval. Only the intervals of a second, third, sixth, and seventh (and the compound intervals based on them) may be major or minor (or, rarely, diminished or augmented). Unisons, fourths, fifths, and octaves and their compound interval must be perfect (or, rarely, diminished or augmented). In Western music, a minor chord "sounds darker than a major chord". Kamien, Roger (2008). ''Music: An Appreciation'', 6th Brief Edition, p. 46. . Scales and chords The other uses of ''major'' and ''minor'' generally refer to scales and ...
