In Reply to: Since we're talking about Barber does anyone else find his Adagio too "brooding" posted by Old SteveA on August 24, 2014 at 09:50:45:
Brooding? It doesn't really affect me that way, but I can accept that some people might find it so.
But I think the word "dissonance" means something much different to me than it does to you. I don't hear dissonance in this work at all.
