Since my name is RonPrice, and since I am now retired after 32 years in classrooms as a teacher and another 18 as a student, I have no desire to take-on a policing role. I did enough of that as a teacher and lecturer over the years. By 1 April 2012, though, I had located over 3000 other Ron Prices on the internet. I have listed some of these other Ron Prices in my computer directory. There are special sites with lists of hundreds of Ron Prices. They include: MyLife.com, Intelius.com, ZoomInfo Business People, Linkedin(25), 192.com, 123people.com, How Many of Me. Com,(in the USA, the UK, & in some other countries)) & PeekYo(2200). The most comprehensive people search on the web is found at pipl search. Pipl search will bring you results you won’t find in any other search engine. They use a identity resolution engine to link those seemingly disparate results into a set of meaningful profiles so you can easily find the person you are looking for.
And so it is that folks here may be confusing me with one of these several 1000 other Ron Prices.-Ron Price, Tasmania
Generally I like classical and jazz. I will write a little below about my favorite pieces.-Ron Price, Tasmania
LIST OF FAVORITE MUSIC AND INDEX TO MY COLLECTION OF RECORDSPREAMBLE:
The exercise of listing one’s favorite music is no easy task after the passing of some seven decades. If a person is young, say in their childhood or adolescence the task is not as great. It may be better for such young people to wait for some years before making such a list, waiting until they survive the perils of: (a) their sporting interests, (b) their love life, (c) their job life, (d) their other leisure pursuits, (e) their desires and passions, wants and wishes as well as (e) the many slings and arrows of outrageous fortune that inevitably come into life.
In my lifetime there has come to be a world of sound in which I can drown, happily or not-so-happily as the case may be. I have not listed below some of the happier sources, pieces, items, songs, inter alia that give me pleasure now and at various times in my 68 years of life, 1943-2011. The list would be too long to include here.
_____________________
In the three year period June 2002 to May 2005, I compiled periodically a list of my favourite music. It was an attempt to define, to give expression to, to list what had become by then a vast sea of pleasurable sounds produced in a number of genres of music. My first memories of listening to music were in about 1948, although I was exposed to music right from the word go in 1943 by two parents who played the piano. I would post the full list here, but it is too long. I would post here “a short list” of nearly 70 years of musical experience, musical pieces I have enjoyed from a longer list of music that gave me pleasure, but it is, as I say, too long to include.It is just a start to making a comprehensive list, a brief survey, a dip in the sea, so to speak. There are now over 1000 items in this full and comprehensive list that I put together in the years 2005 to 2011. I added to that initial list from time to time in the next six years and it came to well over 1000 items. If I continue to add to this list systematically and regularly the list will become completely unmanageable and necessitate far too much of a focus on music in my otherwise highly interdisciplinary life. But the names of many of my favourites are found below for my interest and occasionally to post at a website when others ask about my musical tastes. Since it seems impossible for me to remember the names of many of the pieces, this list helps assist me in bringing to memory these names when and if required. The exercise is interesting to me in its own right without any particular practical value.
Most of the items I have now listed are in my personal music collection(LPs, 45s, CDs and cassettes) or they are items that I have access to temporarily on the radio, or any time I chose from the vast list now available on the internet. As I began adding every item to this list from what I heard on ABC FM Radio in and after 2002, and on the internet, it became obvious that, in the end, the list would become too long if I took the exercise seriously with any sense, as I say, of making a comprehensive collection. What is found here serves as: (a) a list of musical pieces I own/have access to in my collection and (b) a list of additional material I would like to have access to in my study, but do not. As I say, this is a list of musical favourites that I will never bring to an end. The sea is just too full.
