Yes. I agree. It seems to require quite a bit of energy to play and in turn lifts you up as well. One of my favorite pieces is Rachmaninov's Rhapsody on a Theme by Paganini. It seems to have a similar effect. I have found that the 24 Paganini caprices on which it is based is a little harsh, but Rachmaninov's take on Paganini's violin solos is just beautiful.

I've been enjoying Polonaise in A-flat major today, it sweeps me off my feet every time :)

I like Chopin's Nocturn in C sharp minor lately. It seems to appear everywhere in film and television.

Most recently on the playlist were Fantaisie Impromptu, Nocturne in E-flat Maj, and Etude in E Major. Chopin is my go-to when I want to relax :)

I didn't know this group existed, how awesome :) I've been listening to a selection of opera legends all day, and this evening I have been enjoying the company of Mozart and Chopin.

ST: Into Darkness, filling the plotholes [SPOILERS]

This thread contains SPOILERS! Any writers or want-to-be writers here with an open mind and an appreciation for Star Trek Into Darkness, who could imagine just tweaking it a bit to make it less... problematic? I really liked the movie but (like some) have a few issues with it. Rather than throwing my hands up in disgust, I'd like to think some slight adjustments in dialogue and editing could have eliminated them. Maybe just a little imagination could explain some of them away. I would love to…See More
