ME: it’s late, I should go to bed.
MY CLASSICAL MUSICAL STATION: plays Mendelssohn’s violin concerto, with Phillipe Quint as the soloist.
My classical musical station is possessed by the devil.
OH DAMN, NOW IT IS PLAYING SCARLOTTI.
@playinglesshurt Chaplin’s Smile by Phillipe Quint with Marta Aznavoorian is an exquisite album I listened on repeat to while reading
“Charlie Chaplin: My Autobiography”.
I’m a big fan of listening to classical & other instrumental music as I read. Music helps me focus+eliminates background noise
