Great to see people giving this a '1' - takes all sorts, I suppose!  Comes in at somewhere around 12 on my personal scale..

I have most classicals in my lib.Just because its one C. you don´t have to give it a 10. Looking at the music chart one thinks that we are all tuned in to the wrong Radio.

Masterful, following Jimmy with Johann. If only the latter could have witnessed JP bowing his double-neck!

Now that I'd like to see!

May I suggest starting with Yo Yo Ma's recordings of the unaccompanied cello suites? And also a good recording of the complete Brandenburg concerti (that is, Nos. 1-6)?

Who else has the guts to play these two works together? And realize beforehand that it would work so well?

Wunderschoen. Vielen Dank.



I certainly wouldn't want to draw listeners away from our beloved Radio Paradise but there is another station that plays funky mixes like this. Fip Radio is a French government station mixing up, for example, Lily Allen, Gainsbourg, Cash and Verdi all in the same 15 mins.

Please, whoever uploaded this version, post the artist(s) that performed it.

The violinist is the late Arthur Grumiaux, who always played elegantly, with the English Chamber Orchestra.

I've registered just now (though I've been a RP listener for 1+ year) just to comment on such a wonderful choice of music. "Good music" is stuff like this, besides -mostly- everything else played here, and I dont see why it shouldnt be played more, along all the rest..

I love that this isn't the most obvious choice. It's so yummy, and not even close to overplayed.

'Godlike' is probably the only appropriate rating for music that survived for several hundreds of years and still thrills people.

Sweet, smooth, heartache. Years working in a coffeehouse while this played on the stereo makes me yearn for a really good Cafe Borgia.
