Mac’nClassicalCheese - Dec 6, 2023


Today's show is more atmosphere/mood focused with the main themes being reflection & mortality — Fun! But really, these are all just beautiful pieces; Pärt , Britell and Brahms create a starry soundscape that the rest of the pieces flow through with reminiscing and hopeful melodies.
