1. A friend of mine

put forth an interesting scenario.
If you were isolated on an island in the middle of nowhere and had your choice of recorded music by only one composer, which composer's music would you choose.
We both agreed that in spite of enjoying the music of almost all the known composers, the one we chose would be Mozart.
This recording is an excellent representation of his music.
Thanks for posting.

2. I danced strictly ballet back when, but have no musical instrument talent.

Perhaps that is why 'classical' moves me so.
And I have no idea why I am taken by the sound of a bassoon. Other favorites are cello and oboe.

I way enjoyed this selection last evening and said to myself, share this!
