A song that makes me fall asleep
It is actually a massive compliment to a composer that I can relax to such a degree to a work of their art that I can usually fall asleep whenever I listen to it.
Barber’s Adagio for Strings has been used to good effect in a number of films. I’m sure they’ve been great films.
If only I’d been able to stay awake.
William Barber’s Adagio for Strings
A pretty soporific piece, I’ll agree.
Didn’t send me off though.
Although I think it got close! 🙂
Oh, and it was Samuel Barber wot wrote it.
Correct. Sorry about that. I kept falling asleep.
William Orbit made a good fist of interpreting this. And I’d still fall asleep to Yes before this.
