Heeey, do you have Hancock's Back to the Beach soundtrack, with Dweezil and Terry Bozzio? The track Wipe Out on that was nominated for a Grammy. And lost. To FZ.

no, I didn't know that track.

Intronaut: Prehistoricisms.


Wildbirds & peacedrums: Rhythm.

Pater Moeskroen - Heimwee. A bit of a gamble since I didn't like that other album I bought of them, but it has Vannacht which I did like.

I have something against their lyrics.

I have something against flute, haaaaaaaaaaa, too much flute in there.

Haha! Their flautist is a cutie though.
Woodwinds like the flutes (whistles, tin whistle, piccolo, ocarina and anything else you blow into directly), because of their nature, tend to be rather agressive and forward. Compare them: in an orchestra there are 24 violins and two to four flutes.
Now, when you teach a kid to play music, you tend to push a recorder in their hands. Why no zither? Or anything else that's soft in nature?

Do you like panflutes?

Panflute is ok, but actually it's more the "flute in a celtic/folk context" that gets on my nerves, I have no problem when Napoleon Murphy plays the flute with Zappa, for example.

Hey, Obituary! I remember that from my backpack!

In 5.1 mix.

I thought I'd just bought Max Bruch's 1st violin concerto by Joshua Bell, but it turns out there's a Wibi Soerjadi CD in the box.

9 cds, that a lot of music to listen to, I' ve got a few box sets like that, Stravinsky, Bartok, Ravel, Pierre Henry, etc... it's cool to be able to hear the evolution of their music as you listen to lots of their works one after the other.

Chopin wasn't given much time to develop, sadly - he died in his 30s of TBC. There are three early waltzes on it that weren't on another Chopin waltz collection I have; one of these is in A-minor and rather old-fashioned and easy, and the other has such an unusual chord in it that I did some internet research to see if it was a misprint in the sheet music. (it wasn't, it puts a D, A flat, A and B flat opposite each other)
This is the easy one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aspcdJ8Nz0c
The one with the freaky chord:
