Composer and Clarinetist Mark G. Simon makes his PARMA debut with his first-ever recorded album, Grecian Urn. All selections were composed by Simon, and he is the clarinetist on every track. "Anniversary Sonata" commemorates the 50th wedding anniversary of the composer's parents. "Angel Music," is a bright, yet sympathetic Broadway-style ballad with running eighth-note phrases marked by sentimental modulations, inspired by the congeniality of the composer's parents, his father's vocation as a minister, and the G.K. Chesterton quote, "Angels can fly because they take themselves lightly." Concluding the sonata is the progressive "Pleasant Hill," a sweet treasure that could easily be set to words to conclude what is the lounge-style, popular work with innate chamber music tendencies. "Un Buen Piola Porteño" is a tango/fantasia for clarinet and piano and fabulous in every way - from the transformative qualities of the clarinet's voicing through different octaves to the smooth, indelible, charismatic melody of the tune itself, fleshed out with the glittering harmonies of the piano. In "Ode on a Grecian Urn," Simon and Meir add soprano Linda Larson to their combo. In this setting of four of the five stanzas of the John Keats poem, in which the poet describes his visits to the British Museum, Simon reincarnates Keats' experience noting that "The poem's very existence to the power of art to affect people's lives." "Thou Still Unravished Bride," is reminiscent of an Argento song-delicate and complex, yet unforgiving. "Heard Melodies" is a torrent of surface emotions transpired into a popular folk tune. "Coming to the Sacrifice," is a haunting but spirited dance concluded with an extended instrumental fugue-in homage to J.S. Bach's own Musical Sacrifice (BWV 1097). "O Attic Shape," is an elegy directed to the Grecian Urn itself through which a harrowing soprano outcry lauds the Urn for it's beauty.

Stable and attractive
Item Package Quantity: 1, Color: Black
Love the black, it matches my kitchen well. Very sturdy, more so than the Simple Human one that the tension arm broke. A very good product.

Great paper towel holder
Item Package Quantity: 1, Color: Black
This paper towel holder works well for holding the roll while you pull off single sheets. It's heavy and sturdy.

Passed (my) test: 4/5
Item Package Quantity: 1, Color: Black
I used to have a paper holder affixed to the wall. Obviously, it was stable but not always delivering the size of paper towel that we expected.
After redoing my kitchen backsplash that I didn’t want to pierce through just yet, i decided to go for an countertop paper towel holder, and i picked this one (in black) Reviews were decent and i liked that it has an “arm” to hold the paper.
So, i put it to the test (see video) Here are my conclusions:
1) Solid built and weighted at the bottom + rubber to prevent the holder from moving around while pulling the paper 👍🏼
2) out of five trials at pulling the paper, i only had one fail (see video) which is still a better ratio than with my wall holder. 👍🏼
3) There are probably cheaper holders on the market, but most of them are not stable and require two hands to pull paper. This one is easy of use with only one hand which is useful while cooking.
4) i like that this holder comes in different colors, to match the kitchen decoration.
5) The hook at the top of the holder is convenient to carry the holder out of the kitchen, to the dining table for example.

Great Product - Exactly what I was looking for
Item Package Quantity: 1, Color: Black
Great product. Love the black color and the look on my counter. The tension arm does its job and the product is stable when taking a paper towel off the roll.
