I thought I'd share some of the music McEldowney references in his strip.
Borodin's Nocturne String Quartet No. 2:
I'm not that familiar with Alexander Borodin's work and I need to rectify that. This is lovely.
Brahm's Intermezzo Opus 117 Measure 1:
Debussy's Clair de Lune:
Lehar's Komm, in den kleinen Pavillon:
Tchaikovsky's Adagio cantabile from Souvenir de Florence:
Mahler's Ruhevoll from symphony No.4:
If you're not familiar with this piece, note that it starts extremely quietly.
Rachmaninoff's 18th variation rhapsody on a theme of Pagannini:
I'm so used to seeing classical musicians in suits/tuxedos and evening gowns that seeing them in t-shirts kind of threw me. Felt like I was back in high school. I could smell the chalk and wet brass.
Anyway, this is from a period of time before their marriage when Edda and Amos weren't having sex and it was a sad horny desperate time for them. Don't worry, people were still humping in public places/in front of people. (Although that story line does have this very touching scene.)
