that whole album is the nuts

Glenn Gould is the donmeister

He couldn't play without humming along, and if you listen closely on some of his recording you can hear him.

Michael Nyman

massive 2nd on Michael Nyman. Was introduced by my mum and taken to see him in 96 then went again a few years ago up here. More recently was more of his operatic works but I'm not really into vocally stuff. So much of his work has such depth and emotion.... I'm an emo boy at heart.

Here's a fav people may recognise from Gattaca

Hmm no one's mentioned dvorak... his 9th is absolutely dope if you haven't heard it

Almost learned all of this piece

Also check out Jacques Loussier trio, they do amazing jazz interpretations of classical pieces. Next level shit.

24 Préludes, Op. 28: No. 15 in D Flat Major, "Raindrop"


John Cage - Sonata II For Prepared Piano

learnt this piece today

The Japanese national anthem is really nice, the string sections would be pretty good to sample because they're so cleanly played along the melody (proper short though)

Been listening to classical music all week
