For today's lunch break, I propose Martina Filjak playing Ravel's "Une barque sur l'ocean". Not the most popular piece but some of you might enjoy it.

I wish you a great day with Clint Mansell's Lux Aeterna (from the film "Requiem for a Dream", 2000). The Metropole Orkest and Nederlands Concertkoor led by Vincent de Kort (conductor) and Louis Buskens (choir director).

Let's begin the week with absolute beauty. Mario Lanza singing "Vesti La Giubba" (from his last film, "For The First Time", 1958).

A peaceful Sunday with "Hab mir's gelobt" from Strauss' "Der Rosenkavalier". Kiri Te Kanawa, Anne Howells, Aage Haugland and Barbara Bonney with Orchestra and Chorus of the Royal Opera House, conducted by Georg Solti.

Guys, when you see me posting stupid stuff, let me know. Sometimes I upload the wrong video, sometimes my English proficiency tricks me, and sometimes I am next to hallucinations. Most of the time I get it immediately after posting, so I delete & correct later, but sometimes it just flies about my head. Have a great Sunday!

If you don't know what to listen to, my suggestion for today is Yehudi Menuhin performing Brahms' Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 77.

Who remembers this 1994 moment, with The 3 Tenors, singing O Sole Mio? 👏👏👏

From the chapter "You'll listen to what I'm listening to", Sophia Liu plays Tchaikovsky/Pletnev's "Pas de Deux" from The Nutcracker.

For lunch break, a moment with Carolina López Moreno singing Puccini's “Un bel dì, vedremo” at Müpa Budapest.

Good morning with Takuya Okamoto performing Bach's Suite in E Major, BWV 1006a on a classical guitar.

My travels are over and, starting tomorrow, I should be back with the more or less normal posting routine. Until then, Glenn Gould and Yehudi Menuhin performing Bach's Sonata for Piano and Violin No. 4 in C minor, BWV 1017. (Broadcast on May 18, 1966) Have a wonderful evening!

Jean Sibelius' Valse Triste with Herbert Von Karajan conducting the Berlin Philharmonic. It might be my only post for today, so I wish you all the best!

Let's say our goodbyes today with Raphael Attila Vogl playing Jean-Philippe Rameau's "Les Cyclopes". Recorded in the magnificent Liebfrauenmünster, Ingolstadt. I wish you all a beautiful evening!

It seems that somehow I (inexcusably) skipped Wagner, so here I am fixing it. Herbert Von Karajan conducting Richard Wagner's Tannhäuser Overture with the Berlin Philharmonic. Divine! (Re-uploaded the correct video.🤦) Although, at least for the first time I should write its complete name, "Tannhäuser und der Sängerkrieg auf Wartburg".

I start the New Year with Leonard Bernstein and the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, which are probably the biggest reasons for the existence of this npub, and wish you a great year. Gustav Mahler's Adagietto from the Symphony No. 5 in C sharp minor. (1973)

I wish you all a great New Year with Händel/Halvorsen "Passacaglia" performed by Renaud Capuçon (violin) and Gautier Capuçon (cello).

I have the pleasure of closing the day with a page of jazz history, with Miles Davis' first European TV appearance, this being the oldest known footage with him performing. It was filmed on December 7, 1957, for the French show “Au clair de la lune” and broadcast later on Christmas Day. He's performing along with Barney Wilen (tenor saxophone), René Urtreger (piano), Pierre Michelot (double bass) and Kenny Clarke (drums). I wish you all a beautiful evening and, just in case I won't be able to post tomorrow, a happy New Year!

Ivry Gitlis performing the Rondo finale of Paganini’s Violin Concerto No. 2 in B minor, "La Campanella". While most people know it because of Liszt's piano transcription, this is how it was intended, written to sound like a small silver handbell. (When Liszt heard Paganini performing it in Paris, in 1832, he enjoyed it so much that he decided to transcribe it for keyboard.)

A beautiful moment in the history of jazz with Count Basie and Oscar Peterson playing Jumpin' At The Woodside. It's part of a BBC4 special, from 1980 (link with the full show attached), where they perform together with Joe Pass (guitar), Niels Pedersen (bass) and Martin Drew (drums). And with this, I wish you all a fine evening! 🥂

A beautiful afternoon with Ana Vidović playing Paganini's Allegro Risoluto.
