Ralph Vaughn-Williams’ timeless, ethereal “The Lark Ascending” begins with a cadenza for solo Violin with quite the duration of free-form allowed by the Composer. Vaughn-Williams' notation is quite interesting to view. Violinist Hilary Hahn best infuses this cadenza with the most favorable tone and technique.

Likewise, Russian composer Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov's composition “Sheherezade” contains a sequence of musical passages with skeletal framework provided, allowing free-form to both soloist and strings in pizzacato. Rimsky-Korsakov's notation is most fascinating to see..and hear. The passages of which I write take place in Mvt. 2 of this astonishing work.

“The Lark Ascending”: (the indication “Sur la touche” advises the Violinist to play on the finger board of the instrument).

Below are images of the respective passages of which I speak.

“Sheherezade”:

Typically, within a symphonic score, free-form structure is instructed via a Composer's indication of “Cadenza”. In musical terms, a cadenza is an improvised, ornamental passage performed in a “free” rythmic style, typically by a solo performer. To some extent, the musical indication of “a piacere”, (at your pleasure), also allows a performer to abide by the tempo, rhythm and dynamic level of their decision.

Hello, I have a question about astral projection. I started to get interested in this a little while after my mum passed in april. I thought I may be able to see her and speak with her if I managed to achieve astral projection. Since this interest, every time i sleep on my back I go into sleep paralysis. However, I cant progress into astral projection because it is very scary for me as I feel like I'm suffocating when this happens. I panic and force myself to wake up. This only ever happened about once a year before this. It sometimes lasts a long time. This has happened about 3 times per week since my mum died, as mentioned on a previous post. I no longer try to go into it anymore(due to the suffocating feeling), but it still happens. I read that sleep paralysis is the pathway to astral projection. Why has this started to happen so frequently since simply taking an interest in it? Is this connected to the afterlife? I am concerned about it as I now cannot seem to stop this happening. Could it be my mum trying to communicate? Im asking due to more knowledge around this in this group.
