    It is not a mistake, my post is indeed titled just with three letters and numbers.

    A curious thing, sometimes I write a whole post and I have to think about the right title for a while. Other times I have the title right in the beginning, before putting even a word into the post. This time is one of those, the title is simple - BWV 974 and it already shows up while I write this little text.

    I know I owe you an explanation of what those words mean, though I could write my version, maybe? Something like a Blue Words Version? The truth is that BWV, when you see it in relation to a composition written by Johann Sebastian Bach means Bach-Werke-Verzeichnis (Bach Works Catalogue). Each of the pieces he wrote is catalogued and marked with a number by Wolfgang Schmieder (it happened in 1950).

    The number. The piece that was marked in this catalogue by this number is called Adagio and it has been played and left behind intermittently by me for several months. I felt this piece so sad that it made me feel the same each time I played it. Today, it comes from a different angle. And a few things contributed to it.

    One common thing in all the things I will mention is inspiration.

    One. Johann Sebastian Bach was inspired by the second movement of Benedetto Marcello's Oboe concerto. He arranged that Adagio from Marcello's manuscripts and included it in his Concerto for Keyboard in D minor, BWV 974.

    Two. Last week we went on a short family trip. I read one book the first evening we stayed in our accommodation. There were short texts and some poems in the book I chose, so it was indeed not a difficult task to go through the whole book.

    I made a few photos of the pages I liked and where I found some meaning for me. Laura Escanes, the young writer, wrote two or three letters to herself, actually to her future version. The most important message to herself was: love yourself. On another page, she wrote that our complexities or defects are our virtues... That time teaches us, and that we are born to create. Smiles, emotions, art, songs, photographs, words, each of us in our own way.

    The page that maybe fits here the best is the text about blue words. That the truth has that colour, and that blue inspires. She says that it is also the colour of the dreams that catch us and pursue us until we fulfil them. And that blue is calm.

    Three. Hive. Yesterday evening some posts caught my attention. Dmilliz wrote about going on hikes to clear his mind and get inspiration. Definitely a post worth checking out, but then it was followed by Nicky D, and her dance to shake out all the negativity we face or we create for ourselves. I think I played this piece today to fight back the reactions I can get to some scars from remote past that here and there open, even though I don't want it; but I know, we are already perfect in this way how we are! And what a relief, I didn't get sad while playing this Bach piece. And then our Hive poet, Nanixxx wrote a poem and used in one of her verses a composition I like so much, Adagio, from Concierto de Aranjuez by Joaquín Rodrigo. I realized that these pieces are called the same only at the moment I was saving the audio recording of my playing! playing!

    This fusion of possible sources of inspiration must be called a Spread the Vibes post, in many layers!
