What are you listening to?

Similar tastes here but also jazz. In the last year or two I have enjoyed a lot of newer classical like Ravel, Debussy, Mahler, Stravinsky, and RVW to go with loads of Bach, Mozart, Vivaldi, and Beethoven. Have also recently been enjoying much more Haydn and Brahms. I love KMFA when I am too laze to flip records.

Well, it doesn’t exactly count as what are you listening to - but I was just ā€œflipping channelsā€ on my iPad and I stopped — and was mesmerized — on Little Richard - I Am Everything - so much made such perfect sense. I sighed. I think I will listen to choral music now (have been a participant doe a good part of my pre-Covid life).

I’m a huge DB fan, and I can honestly say I’ve never heard the song in my life. Thx for sharing!

I was in London last week, for a few days only. While visiting one of my favourite stores (Drake’s) they were playing both of these songs. I’d say the store is mostly aimed at 30 and 40-somethings…

I had already been revisiting St Etienne - their music just sounds so ā€˜fresh’ even though it’s over 30 years old. And then Mulatu Astatke has always been pretty timeless.

Im caught between the moon and New York city.

A song I love, even though I don’t understand Greek. Hopefully @Phoenikia will post as to whether it is sad or hopeful (or both!).

The singer is a prominent opera singer.
