Ludovico Maria Enrico Einaudi OMRI (Italian: [ludoˈviːko eiˈnaudi] ( listen); born 23 November 1955) is an Italian pianist and composer. Trained at the Conservatorio Verdi in Milan, Einaudi began his career as a classical composer, later incorporating other styles and genres such as pop, rock, folk, and world music.[1]

The Lark is beautiful. I haven't heard it in a long time. I listen to a lot of abstract music but there are some simpler (probably not a good word description for that) pieces which I have always enjoyed. Thanks for the entry.

My goodness. I was finishing listening to the Lark and saw the oboe players. I used to play oboe. It was only at that moment that I realized I was watching a youth orchestra. Must be very nice to be part of something like that.

Pachelbel's Canon was popular during his lifetime in the late 1600s, but lost popularity until it was rediscovered in the 1960s. The distinctive eight bar progression was taken on in many forms by rock and pop artists, while the original form of the piece became a mainstay at weddings.
There is also a 'thing' called 12 bar blues, which is used extensively by rock artists of today, and yesterday,

Settle, petal

 

[captain-sensible]

usually i listen to ClassicFm each late evening they don't seem to play Maurice Ravel's Piano Concerto in G major that often but heard it a few times and growing on me.

Start with Vivaldi and end with Schubert, Chopin.
But Mahler, Wagner ... no thanks.
My favorites: Adagio (Albinoni), Beethoven's Appassionata, Bach's Tocatta & Fugue in D Minor, Schubert's Death & The Maiden, Mozart's Clarinet Quintet - and the Ultimate, Mozart's Requiem.

Very easy on the eyes

Brian I also find them easy on the eyes especially Chen Yue and Zhao Cong and Deng Li jun especially Yue is a flautist using mainly the bamboo flutes known as the Dizi and xiāo and Cong is a Pipa player which is also known as the Chinese lute. both these ladies are talented players of their respective instruments. Li Jun is also known as Teresa Teng. But I understand what you mean about the violinist in the orchestra.
Also I have the Scheherazade in my music collection.

Just something of interest about the work
This orchestral work combines two features typical of Russian music in general and of Rimsky-Korsakov in particular: dazzling, colourful orchestration and an interest in the East, which figured greatly in the history of Imperial Russia, as well as Orientalism in general. The name "Scheherazade" refers to the main character Scheherazade of the One Thousand and One Nights. It is one of Rimsky-Korsakov's most popular works.​
