Last night's first dinner in Berlin.
There's no official music selection this weekend, but I did see some interesting keyboard playing on television...
TVOntario's Saturday late show programmed Fellini's Casanova, featuring Donald Sutherland, loose plotting, some naughty bits, and excellent art direction. In this scene, Casanova is in Germany, talking philosophy and trying to wrangle patronage. I, um, think that the music is suggesting a twisted parody of J.S. Bach, or at least a critique of ornate pipe organ construction. The soundtrack is by Nina Rota (a very sweet composer, who was not afraid of some dissonance at moments). Sally had fallen asleep by this point.
