Can’t go wrong with some Debussy. Stuff like Bach/Beethoven isn’t interesting to me.

Also Stravinsky has got some good stuff

My dyslexic @$$ read this as “We should have a Musical raid!’” and I was straight up "Ooooh, that’d be interesting!"

The best part of the Boccherini piece:

It’s a Spanish piece, done by an Italian, about an English vessel, being attacked by a French ship. :stuck_out_tongue:

This is my favorite from the movie, it drove me nuts for a long time trying to figure out where I remembered it from. It was the background music from a defragging program I used about twenty years ago, took forever to complete.

That’s Bach’s “Cello Suite #1 (G Major)”, Yo Yo Ma is playing. It happens to be his favorite piece of music. There are many MANY versions of him playing it, the one from the M&C soundtrack happens to be my favorite.

The pacing, phrasing, intonation … everything about it is perfect.

This is from a doc I saw on violin. This Chaconne by Yehudi Menuhin closed it out.

That final note as he draws it out… the first time I saw this, I felt like I couldn’t breathe for 10 minutes. Just… STUNNING
