When I need soothing my "go to" is the Rachmaninov "All night Vigil"; probably his masterpiece. In particular the Sveshnikov recording is superb but there are many available streaming, and I have a couple more LPs.
Mining classical music gold.
I’ve been streaming for months now. For some unexplainable reason I’ve been concentrating for the main part on the latest classical releases out there . Quizzically, I have ignored the unlimited access to recorded history that we have in our hands. Heifetz, Horowitz, Reiner, Toscanini, Piatigorsky, Stokowski and countless other twentieth century geniuses are copiously available. I just can’t believe it took me this long to wake up.
I’m writing this for any classical music lovers who, like me, have been blind to the mind-blowing potential afforded us.
