I was in the mood for trumpet, so here's Jessica Pina with her JP Funk Trio playing Roy Hargrove's "Strasbourg / St. Denis". Have a great day!

This is me complaining after a few days of bad weather. Ben Webster and Oscar Peterson playing I Got It Bad and That Ain't Good. (Hannover, 1972)

I'm sure that everyone knows about this but me. 😂 Keith Jarrett playing "Over the Rainbow", Tokyo, 1984. What a nice surprise!

I listened to "Parigi, o cara" from Verdi's "La Traviata" with Pavarotti and Sutherland but I posted it already so here's Angela Gheorghiu and Roberto Alagna singing "Parigi, o cara" and "Ah! Gran Dio! Morire Sì, Giovane".

Today I present to you one of my favourite pages of music history. Montserrat Caballé and Marilyn Horne singing the duet "Belle Nuit", also known as Barcarolle, from Offenbach's "Les Contes d'Hoffmann". Munich, 1990 👏👏👏

If you enjoy a cognac next to your coffee, here's Lee Morgan "chatting" with Oscar Peterson. Moanin', 1961.

A bit of flamenco. I need to do my homework on Spain because it's a significant blind spot for me. I see a lot of videos of public events and I have to create a bucket list.

Test As stated earlier, I have some upload issues.

For today, a very young Gheorghe Zamfir performing The Lonely Shepherd with his pan flute in London, 1978. (You can skip the first two minutes if you want to go to the singing part.)

One contemporary classical music composer whom I wholeheartedly recommend is Anna Thorvaldsdottir. Of course, being Icelandic, she has a name that is not supported by standard keyboards, and the same holds for some of her song titles. However, you can copy/paste this name if you want to search for more information. I also have some upload issues today so here's the YouTube link for what I initially wanted to upload. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-3GlOCaSXw

I post Yuja Wang playing Schubert/Liszt's Erlkönig but mostly because I got fascinated while watching her hands. Enjoy!

Tonight, I present to you two kings. Camarón de la Isla and Paco de Lucía "showing off" with Bulerías. 👏👏👏

In Amethyst and Primal works just fine. 🤷

My only post for today, Jimmy Smith playing “Walk on the Wild Side” live on Jazz Scene USA, 1962. For those passionate, this is the Hammond B-3 in the hands of Jimmy Smith, the man who changed it forever.

Okay, this one isn't about classical music, but in 50 years, who knows? I know I'm old, so I quite enjoyed Jorn van Deynhoven's remix of Tiësto's "Lethal Industry". I felt young again for a few minutes. 😂 (Transmission Prague, 2021)
