I've been listening to "We Are", by the Ukrainian composer Yuri Shevchenko (who sadly died in March). I recently heard this beautiful and touching piece of music performed by my local Symphony in honour of the people of Ukraine, and in the attached video it is magnificently performed by the orchestra at the Teatro Comunale di Bologna, with Oksana Lyniv conducting and Emanuele Benfenati on violin.

(If you're around, Bev, I'm sure you'll enjoy the violin part!).

Thank you, Lisa,
What a most pleasant way to begin the day! I was into the music from the second note.
All of it is just beautifully soul stirring and soothing at the same time
EDIT: And now that has led me to play a double album of classical music that I haven't listened to for quite a while -

Once again, I'm hooked on Part's Spiegel im Spiegel as on the above Australian ABC classics album with cello by Sally Maer, an English born and trained cellist who has settled in Australia. She has played with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra and Sinfonia Australis -

If you listen to this it will definitely put you into a peaceful state of mind

Quite so! Whenever I hear it I always feel like I am floating in a calm and beautiful place, it has such a gentle tranquillity -- absolutely beautiful! Thank you for the link to that lovely performance!

I will probably never stop admiring Metallica's playing. It is so powerful, strong, dynamic and very melodic at the same time.
One day I was given a CD by this band. The first time I listened to it, I was amazed... The way they performed, the sound, the transitions - it was something unimaginable. The Metallica musicians are talented, there is no doubt. Later I downloaded their albums with a torrent.
I had a lot of fun listening to the concert: Metallica + San Francisco Symphony Orchestra. It was a really beautiful combination. The power of the band's playing was softened by the harmony of the orchestra.

Listening to Born to Run on vinyl for the first time. It was released 47 years ago (1975). The album that moved Springsteen into stratospheric mainstream popularity and yet retained a poetic vision in all the songs. Epic album !

I'm listening to Maxwell Quartet, a British string quartet (three Scots and an Englishman) who specialise in playing a mixture of traditional classical music and Scottish folk tunes. I saw them in concert recently -- it was absolutely fabulous! Here's some of their Scottish music from the album shown below (this is a live version, obviously!)

And, to round out the programme, the spirited Finale from Haydn's Op. 74 No. 3 (studio version)

Hello Kush,
I really enjoyed those songs. It is the sort of music which one rarely hears nowadays. I am very fond of Marlene Dietrich’s version of ‘Lili Marlene’ too.
