Here is a difficult peice played by virtuoso Yehudi Mehnuin. It is Chaconne in D minor by Bach. Listen to the rich sound of this Stradavarious violin.

Did you know that Led Zeppelin didn’t write Dazed and Confused? I was really surprised to hear that it was actually written by Jake Holmes who I think was American. Yardbirds first did this song. I really liked this group but don’t remember them doing this song. Led Zeppelin brings back memories, especially Whole Lotta Love.
Yardbirds: it’s very different and can’t say I like it.

I like so many pieces! Firebird suite by Stravinsky. The Bach Solo Cello Suites, especially numbers 3 and 6. Beethoven Symphonies 6, 8, and 9, also his Waldstein and Moonlight Sonatas for piano and the late String Quartets. Black Angels for String Quartet by George Crumb (that's for my weird side :P). Bibel's Ave Maria for Men's Chorus. Barber's Adagio for Strings and the arrangement for choir known as his Agnus Dei. Corigliano's Voyage for Choir, as well as the transcription for flute and strings, as well as his setting of Fern Hill for Choir. Stravinsky's Symphony of Psalms. I could go on and on and on, lol. Oh, can't forget Ralph Vaughn William's Dona Nobis Pacem. Excellent piece.

The following music I realize not everyone will like. I bought Marian Anderson's Brahms Alto Rhapsody LP when I was in my 20's. I could never find it on CD at any store. Couldn't even order it. Lo and behold I find it on YouTube. I think it's a beautiful piece. You have to consider that it was probably recorded in the 30's.

I'll finish with Grieg's Morning. I'm off to bed, but for some it may be morning soon.
