    Mahler is a mess. A glorious mess, but a mess nonetheless.



    Actually even more intrigued now. Will certainly have to grab something and see what transpires.

    Not again, jozzy! Scarborough Fair is a folk song (more closely related to rock and roll than classical), specifically in traditional ballad form.

    And the second movement. Check out the perfection with which he executes circular breathing in the passage beginning just after the 4-minute mark. Amazing!

    A little Beau Soir for Folklore. (It's not Joshua Bell's violin version though) This classic written by Debussy, means "Beautiful Evening". It was inspired by a poem by Paul Bourget.

    When the rivers are rosy in the setting sun,
    And a warm shiver runs over the wheat fields,
    Advice to be happy seems to rise up from things
    And climb toward the troubled heart.
    Advice to taste the charm of being in the world
    While one is young and the evening is beautiful,
    For we are going away, as this stream goes away:
    The stream to the sea, we to the grave.

    Arvo Pärt? Ok, so what about "Fratres"?
    Saw that live once with Anne-Sophie Mutter, absolutely fantastic.

    Apart from that - Waltzes from Chopin (and yes: I got a crush on Alice Sara Ott) 
    :x

    Grieg - Peer Gynt (Death of Aase, Solveig's song)

    Chopin Nocturne no.1 B-flat minor
