Any classical music gurus here on the Forum. Who do you like.
I work a lot of nights Amos,and in my Ambulance car on nights I always have Classic FM on,not in the day because the music can be too loud and booming and fast,but at night they play some beautiful music that is very soothing and helps me to relax and unwind,sometimes a piece is so nice I note what it is and add it to my mp3 player on my phone,the last time I did this was just a few days ago,for a lovely relaxing piece called A Downland Suite III Minuet by the English String Orchestra,sometimes I hear lovely classical music other ways,did you see the wonderful ceremony from Westminster on 4th August,it was live on the BBC,it commemorated 100 years to the minute when the First World War started,and the "Lights went out all over Europe",as they were putting out the last candle,a violinist and organist played The Lark Ascending and it was beautiful,and I downloaded that too
Now I will show my age......... Does anyone like the piece " The Devils Gallop" ?? I've loved it since I was a schoolboy in 1950 /51 when it was the intro music to DICK BARTON SPECIAL AGENT! on the radio. I got to listen to the show and soon as it was done I was packed off to bed. That was at 7-00 pm (See them doing that these days )
Sorry, but we be totally into Jazz (and maybe a bit of blues).
Really love Miles, Trane, Bird, and Diz!!!

I am not a guru, but do not mind listening to some soft instrumental, when I lived alone before I was married. I am not versed well enough to know the difference between composers, but appreciate the music. On Sunday mornings before I attended church I would listen to a jazz station and have breakfast with a woman across the hall from me in my apt. I am a listener of mostly 60's and 70's rock. Some of the best coming from England!
Have you been sneaking a look at some of my CD collection?
