ABM plays "Chiariana" in a live performance of Schumann's Carnaval. Ivy was humming along to this (sort of) earlier.

Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli's studio recording of Ferruccio Busoni's piano transcription of Bach's Chaconne. One of the more incredible piano recordings I've ever heard.

Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli plays Chopin's Andante Spianato and Grande Polonaise Brilliante. Stupendous control as ever, particularly in the last two minutes or so.

"The Art Of Easing" by Digable Planets, from their second album Blowout Comb, which is still one of my favourite hip-hop records.


"Broken Chords Can Sing A Little" by A Silver Mt. Zion.


"Ondine", the first movement of Ravel's notoriously difficult "Gaspard de la Nuit". Played live by the one and only Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli. An amazing performance.
