Today I bring you more from my old "drinking playlist", so once again you're listening to what I'm listening to.

Today I will delight you with another piece from my old "drinking playlist".
Baby Huey - Hard Times
From an old "drinking playlist", Gnarls Barkley - Crazy.
If right now you're dreaming about Italy, like me, here's the soundtrack. Vito Nicola Paradiso playing Lucio Dalla's "Caruso".
I wish you all a great weekend with Ana Vidović playing from Bach's Cello Suite No. 1 Prelude in G Major, BWV 1007.
Happy birthday to Martha Argerich who turns 85 today. This video is from the Chopin Competition in 1965, when she was only 24, playing Chopin's Mazurka Op. 59 No. 1 in A minor.
TIL that Arnold Böcklin's "Die Toteninsel" (The Isle of the Dead) was owned by Freud, Hitler and Lenin. 
A short video from a few days ago with Georges Bizet's "Carmen" at the Vienna State Opera.
A few minutes of pure bliss with the second movement from Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 5 (Emperor Concerto) with Krystian Zimerman and the Philharmonic of Vienna, directed by Leonard Bernstein.
After a very long day, one of my favourite "soul healers", Cavaradossi's aria from Act III of Puccini's "Tosca, "E lucevan le stelle ", with Roberto Alagna.
Met Opera, 2013/14 season.
They say "keep Nostr weird" so here's my contribution. Nothing too weird yet, just testing the waters. 😂 So no classical music for now.
Zep's "Figure it out"
Today I say goodbye with a clip from "La Bola Negra" (The Black Ball), a film by Javier Calvo and Javier Ambrossi, which participated in this year's Cannes Film Festival and won the Best Director prize.
Have a great evening!
For today, I will present to you the most successful song from my daughter's birthday party. 😂 I was somehow surprised that a bunch of 10 yo girls would have the greatest time with this song, but I sang it with them because I love it too, more or less obviously.
Ricchi e Poveri, "Sarà perché ti amo"
For those who are still on Nostr, John Williams performing Albeniz's Asturias live at Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club, in 1971.
Have a fine Saturday!
Possibly my only post for today, Mendelssohn's Piano Trio No. 1 in D Minor, I. Molto allegro agitato. It feels like a family discussion with Martha Argerich and the brothers Renaud and Gautier Capuçon.
Just in case, have a great weekend!
In 1896, Strauss read Nietzsche describing the world's first sunrise and decided to create its soundtrack, thus naming it "Also Sprach Zarathustra". Years later, Kubrick chose this first sunrise to open its "2001: A Space Odyssey".
I think that the fathers of daughters were hit extra hard by Interstellar. For us, Hans Zimmerman's Theme, live in Prague. 🥂
For your pleasure in a random moment of the day, Chet Baker playing Miles Davis' "Nardis", together with Michel Graillier, in a live session in the Sone Record library from Lidingö, Sweden.
Beethoven's Bagatelle No. 25 in A minor, performed by Lang Lang, commonly known as "Für Elise" (For Elise). It was discovered by Ludwig Nohl in 1867, 40 years after Beethoven's death, making people wonder who Elise was. Likely, a two-century-old secret love story.
Technically, it's Clint Mansell's "Lux Aeterna". For me, it's "Requiem for a Dream". Have a great day!
