Listening to Nobuo Uematsu (he is a legendary video game composer). At this moment, I believe he as is close to a living Mozart as possible.

Anyway: I implore all members to take the time to listen to Nobuo's music. I find it serious, deep, playful, humorous, beautiful, etc. etc. etc. I think he is brilliant - the thing is I usually do not enjoy his music all that much, but am loving it now, truly.

Here it is (all orchestral - and well orchestrated, imo):

I am very curious to know what people thought of this music? Did anyone take the time to listen? All the best.

Oh, I've liked that Rossinni one since I was about ten. Especially accompanied by Bugs Bunny, eh, Michael?

Lately I've been listening to Beethoven's late sonatas especially op 110 (in regard to its "connection" with Josephine as some scholars note). This performance by Barenboim isn't my all-time favorite interpretation, but it is posted in full (no annoying switching between movements) and is quite a good performance in my opinion:

I've also been listening to op 111 quite a bit, especially Arrau's incredible 1970 performance. This interpretation is by far my favorite (also posted in full 27 min).

After Roehre's post in the listening thread about Ferneyhough's Lemma-Icon-Epigram I was going to ask a silly question, then thought better of that and decided to just listen to it on youtube:

I found I quite enjoyed the piece but would probably get much more out of it by not following the score; it's a bit distracting to watch it.

Thanks, Roehre!

What a shame that Horowitz never actually wrote down this transcription. Not that I'd be able to play it anyway, but...
