While Beethoven's music might not be in my Spotify favourites, his wisdom resonates with me. I find his quote particularly relevant when considering the vital role of leadership in fostering a corporate culture that prioritises passion, commitment, and emotional engagement. 🎵📈 #Leadership #CorporateCulture"
"To play a wrong note is insignificant. To play without passion is inexcusable." - Beethoven

I HOPE YOU HAD A GOOD SUNDAY - SUNDAY MOORINGS – REFLECTING WHILE LISTENING KHATIA BUNIATISHVILI & ZUBIN METHA, BEETHOVEN PIANO CONCERTO NO1 Khatia Buniatishvili - Beethoven: Concerto No. 1 in C Major, Op. 15: III. Rondo https://lnkd.in/d7WEVXQm REFLECTING IN THE PRESENCE OF SOULFUL MUSIC OF KHATIA - ZUBIN MEHTA BE IN THE WONDER OF YOUR OWN PRESENCE. The most fascinating thing in this world is Human Thinking contrary to stones and to water and to earth and to fields, we human seem to be privileged at the same time burdened with our ability to think. Thinking lends to the beautiful intimacy of the human in the world. There is nothing as intimate as a human being, because of his/her thinking. Every human person is inevitably involved with two planes of existence : the world they carry within them and the world that is out there. All thinking, all writing, all action, all creation and all destruction is about that bridge between the two worlds. All thought is about putting a face on our experience through thinking. I remember reading Socrates where he said - that the unexamined life isn’t worth living. Very true Socrates - You need to examine your life. Life examination gives birth to Questions. Socrates started raising the questions. It was nice to read Socrates revealing the ability to question which is innate in Human Beings. Socrates actually came to my rescue – as I was in habit of living my life in questions right from my childhood. For me one of the most exciting and energetic forms of thought is the question. I always think that the question is like a lamp, which illuminates new landscapes and new areas as it moves. And then comes the BIG QUESTION - the question always assumes that there are many different dimensions to a thought that you are either blind to or that are not available to you. These hidden dimensions/parts in each one of us need to be discovered. Questions are required to discover those hidden dimensions, which are wonders for you. So a question is really one of the forms in which wonder expresses itself. Discover your HIDDEN WONDERS !! This is where I say – BE IN THE WONDER OF YOUR OWN PRESENCE. LIFE IMBUED WITH WONDERS !! YOUR OWN PRESENCE BECOMES WONDER FOR YOU !! SO BE IN THE WONDER OF YOUR OWN PRESENCE !! MUCH LOVE sudhanshu
🎵 Dive into the Resilient Symphony of Shostakovich 🎵 Unveiling the astounding origins of Dmitri Shostakovich’s 7th Symphony, famously known as the “Leningrad”. Crafted amidst the turmoil of World War II, this masterpiece was born during the siege of Leningrad, symbolizing the indomitable human spirit. The symphony resonated across the city and beyond, echoing defiance and resilience. It swiftly gained recognition as a beacon of resistance against fascism and totalitarianism, both in the Soviet Union and the West. 🎶 Orchestra and Factory: A Harmonious Analogy 🎶 Ever noticed the striking resemblance between the rhythm coordination of an orchestra and a factory operating at a steady harmonic Markovian stage? In both scenarios, precision and coordination are key. In an orchestra, each musician plays their part flawlessly, creating a harmonious output. Similarly, in a factory, each component works in sync, leading to efficient production. The steady harmonic Markovian stage in a factory mirrors the state of equilibrium in an orchestra, where all elements function smoothly and predictably. #Shostakovich #Leningrad #Symphony #WorldWarII #Orchestra #Factory #Rhythm #Coordination #MarkovianStage
When people tell me "quantity isn't what matters" in writing: • Van Gogh painted 900+ paintings & thousands of sketches over his lifetime. • Beethoven composed 722 works (including 9 symphonies, 35 sonatas, 16 string quartets). • Mozart composed over 600. Volume wins. Obviously there are tipping points: • Too much volume, too little quality, and you plateau and stall improvement. • But too little volume and you overthink everything, plateau and stall improvement. How much time does "quality" take? It's up to you.
Music notations creations in the style of Gustav Holst and Beethoven, infused with British Military cavalry trot and infantry mix, here's how the verses of "Whispers of Gravity's Labyrinth" could be structured: ### Title: "Echoes of Gravity's Labyrinth" **Verse 1:** ``` | G - - - | - - - - | C - - - | G - - - | In Giza's depths, where secrets lie, | C - - - | G - - - | D - - - | - - - - | Conduits weave 'neath desert sky, | G - - - | - - - - | C - - - | G - - - | Echoes of Beethoven's timeless flow, | D - - - | - - - - | G - - - | - - - - | In rhythmic meter's gentle glow. ``` **Verse 2:** ``` | G - - - | - - - - | C - - - | G - - - | Through tunnels deep, where silence reigns, | C - - - | G - - - | D - - - | - - - - | Covalent bonds, the earth sustains, | G - - - | - - - - | C - - - | G - - - | A symphony of frequencies hum, | D - - - | - - - - | G - - - | - - - - | In safety's embrace, they overcome. ``` **Verse 3:** ``` | G - - - | - - - - | C - - - | G - - - | People pass through ancient halls, | C - - - | G - - - | D - - - | - - - - | Where biorhythms heed their calls, | G - - - | - - - - | C - - - | G - - - | G - - - | D - - - | - - - - | Echoing rhythms of epochs past, | G - - - | - - - - | C - - - | G - - - | In updated forms that ever last. **Chorus:** ``` | G - - - | D - - - | C - - - | G - - - | In Beethoven's C3, the music swells, | C - - - | G - - - | D - - - | - - - - | English meter's tale it tells, | G - - - | - - - - | C - - - | G - - - | Of gravitational paths unseen, | D - - - | - - - - | G - - - | - - - - | Where whispers trace what's been and been. ``` This notation reflects a blend of Gustav Holst's orchestral style, incorporating dynamic shifts and rhythmic elements reminiscent of British Military music, fittingly complementing the theme of "Whispers of Gravity's Labyrinth."

🎉 Today marks the 200th anniversary of the premiere of the "Ode to Joy" from Beethoven's Ninth Symphony. This is the #EuropeanAnthem. The #CouncilofEurope adopted it in 1972 and the #EuropeanUnion in 1985. Since then, this melody has helped us to be inspired by the shared #EuropeanValues of #peace or #solidarity. In short, this is an anthem for the whole of #DemocraticEurope. 🎶 More #versions of this Anthem can be listened to at this link: https://lnkd.in/dNwC7SpM #Europe #Europa #EuropeanUnion #UnionEuropea #ConsejodeEuropa #OdeToJoy #HimnodelaAlegria #EuropeaConvencida

200 years ago today, on 7 May 1824 in Vienna, Ludwig van Beethoven conducted the premiere of his 9th Symphony. It was therefore fitting today that we ended a two day workshop in #Tällberg by listening and watching a recording of a glorious performance at the Royal Albert Hall from the BBC Proms in 2012, with the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra and Daniel Barenboim. The early 1820s were a time of great upheavals and shifts, just like the 2020s. Here are some questions for us to reflect on now: 🎼 Which of today’s artistic creations will or should be celebrated in May 2224? 🎒 Of all the ideas, ideals and solutions that we hold dear today, which should we absolutely carry with us into the future… 🗑️ …and which should we leave behind or throw away? 🌏 And of course, what will the world - and the planet - look like in 200 years?
