Let's have a bit of fun with Joachim Horsley's "Moonlight Mozambique" (Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" but Cuban style).

Verbier Festival, great as always. If someone goes there, we need at least a few pictures. 🥂 They also have a promo for Father's Day with 20% off.
Today's weather is presented by Janine Jansen and Amsterdam Sinfonietta playing the summer storm from Vivaldi's "Four Seasons". Have a great day!
Today I bring you more from my old "drinking playlist", so once again you're listening to what I'm listening to.
Pointer Sisters - Fire
Today I will delight you with another piece from my old "drinking playlist".
Baby Huey - Hard Times
If right now you're dreaming about Italy, like me, here's the soundtrack. Vito Nicola Paradiso playing Lucio Dalla's "Caruso".
I wish you all a great weekend with Ana Vidović playing from Bach's Cello Suite No. 1 Prelude in G Major, BWV 1007.
Happy birthday to Martha Argerich who turns 85 today. This video is from the Chopin Competition in 1965, when she was only 24, playing Chopin's Mazurka Op. 59 No. 1 in A minor.
TIL that Arnold Böcklin's "Die Toteninsel" (The Isle of the Dead) was owned by Freud, Hitler and Lenin. 
A few minutes of pure bliss with the second movement from Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 5 (Emperor Concerto) with Krystian Zimerman and the Philharmonic of Vienna, directed by Leonard Bernstein.
For today, I will present to you the most successful song from my daughter's birthday party. 😂 I was somehow surprised that a bunch of 10 yo girls would have the greatest time with this song, but I sang it with them because I love it too, more or less obviously.
Ricchi e Poveri, "Sarà perché ti amo"
For those who are still on Nostr, John Williams performing Albeniz's Asturias live at Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club, in 1971.
Have a fine Saturday!
Possibly my only post for today, Mendelssohn's Piano Trio No. 1 in D Minor, I. Molto allegro agitato. It feels like a family discussion with Martha Argerich and the brothers Renaud and Gautier Capuçon.
Just in case, have a great weekend!
In 1896, Strauss read Nietzsche describing the world's first sunrise and decided to create its soundtrack, thus naming it "Also Sprach Zarathustra". Years later, Kubrick chose this first sunrise to open its "2001: A Space Odyssey".
I think that the fathers of daughters were hit extra hard by Interstellar. For us, Hans Zimmerman's Theme, live in Prague. 🥂
For your pleasure in a random moment of the day, Chet Baker playing Miles Davis' "Nardis", together with Michel Graillier, in a live session in the Sone Record library from Lidingö, Sweden.
Beethoven's Bagatelle No. 25 in A minor, performed by Lang Lang, commonly known as "Für Elise" (For Elise). It was discovered by Ludwig Nohl in 1867, 40 years after Beethoven's death, making people wonder who Elise was. Likely, a two-century-old secret love story.
Technically, it's Clint Mansell's "Lux Aeterna". For me, it's "Requiem for a Dream". Have a great day!
Another jazz remembrance for today is that exactly 100 years ago Miles Davis was born to make us happy. 🥂
I just found out that yesterday we lost Sonny Rollins. RIP, maestro, we can just hope to reach 95! Let's remember him with "Biji", at the 50th Monterey Jazz Festival, in 2007.
