Ah, the fugue and pizzicato <br />Hearken to the flute and strings <br />Listen to Grieg's Peer Gynt Suite <br />In the Hall of The Mountain King. <br />Fill your heart with the great Vivaldi <br />Concerto in 'C' for trumpet and strings <br />Lend an ear to Sibelius...Finlandia <br />And Schumann's romantic symphonies. <br /> <br />Call for the music from over the sea <br />And you will find peace and tranquility <br />Beautiful sopranos will sing for thee <br />Soothing your mind with melody... <br />Oh the choirs of gentle voices <br />Singing their madrigals of spring <br />But ah, the fugue and pizzicato <br />In the Hall of the Mountain King.<br /><br />Joyce Hemsley<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-mountain-king/
