Music

I find basically all music to be wonderful. Brahms is my favorite composer (atm)! These days, I am working on a program with Mozart K. 533, Brahms Op. 116, Mendelssohn F sharp minor fantasie, Bartok Sonata, and much more. I don’t from from any specific tradition - I take from whatever feels good.
