Arts need Support from you all!


So we were taking about Holst and I was looking for Second Suite in F the 2nd movement "song without words" and well I found this piece.
Mars-The Bringer of Wars -The Planets by Gustav Holst
I have to say this is an amazing piece. You can just feel it. The basses, the excitement, the power- love the brass... love how music can convey so much emotion.
And since we all know that Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus... I wanted counter the Mar's piece with
Venus- The Bringer of Peace- The Planets by Gustav Holst
But, we know this isn't completely true... since we as  women can be a little aggressive and if we went to war, and if were going to die we would do out best to take our fair share with us, we can mean business too, lol. But, we also know men who are completely peaceful and would do all in their power to convey peace, love and serenity.

Notice the peace and the love you can hear in this piece though. Not  that men can't do it but some wont. And I'm not trying to put people down.
I Love the changes in settings of both pieces and I have to say I love the Mar's piece so much more... hey I'm a loving person... but let's play fight instead. lol
Hope you all enjoyed them! FYI --Music and the Arts are going downhill. We need to do all in our power to feed the creativity in kids, and show them the life and beauty of all forms of expression: Music, Art, Writing... it's all Art and we need to Support each other!!!
We want kids to read, do great in science, and know how to do math but the Art influence that... music... a variation of math, Art and science... go so well with creativity, reading and writing.... We need to do more... the programs can't do anything with out support of all of us! Teach your child to appreciate music, to appreciate Art, landscape, a book... everything to keep feeding an imagination. Kids are loosing the war to TV, Video games... or hey why not... make them act out scenes or how to handle a video camera. or start them in a different type of creativity, making their own video games, or writing out programs... not so easy but it's creative in nature and it might be their field of interest(I know writing programs ain't easy, ask CS majors that's why they get paid good money to do what the rest of us can't) ... All kids are smart but they just need to perfect influence.
Thank you!
