Ten Jinn : Sisyphus
A rock band who wrote a half-hour long classical piece - then decided to add rock instrumentation.
Then - released a 2nd version of the same piece, with vocals, turning it into a rock epic.
I enjoy playing the 2 pieces back-to-back.

Last performance at Canterbury Cathedral Organ
Which reminds me. Back in the 1990s we used to have young foreign students to stay for a month. One 14-year-old girl from Bavaria was the village organist. She came to us because we had an in-tune piano.
But one day I took her to Dover, to the Town Hall, the Maison Dieu, because I knew there was to be an organ concert that evening and the organist would be practising in the afternoon.
He was and he let her play with him, and on her own, on the massive organ, far, far larger than the one she played in Bavaria.
Another day I took her to Canterbury Cathedral and she was allowed to play that organ too. Twenty years later she wrote to us. She had gone to a music Academy and had become a music teacher (she was still the village's organist). She told us that her fellow music students had been jealous of her, being allowed to play on two organs in England with organ professionals. Why not? She was a good organist at 14.

Decided to work from home today and work on two of my stories. I find that when I write I like a little background music. if their are words I get distracted so I've got a few lofi playlists on Spotify that I often have as background noise while I write. This morning I have Chillhop Radio playing

Same, I forget which album I own - which says something besides the fact I never saw fit to buy more, usually when I like something I buy the band's entire catalog. It's a sickness I see no reason to cure

I know what you mean!
I have just 3 by Tiamat, all sent for free, for review purposes.
If you start writing reviews (and if you're careful to alert the band, the label, and the PR folks about each review), you'll eventually get 5 to 10 free CDs / week unsolicited.
Hence the 6,000+ collection. I think I only bought about half of those. Still - 3,000-ish album purchases has been an expensive hobby!

That's me with books; publishers are sending me somewhere between ten to thirty Advanced Reader's Copies a week. I'm definitely not complaining but my TBR stacks are miles high....I know what you mean!
