Gorecki’s Symphony No. 3, which some of you may be familiar with because it was actually a hit in the 90s. I love it.
I remember when it was a hit, for that is when I first heard it, and, in turn, that prompted me to head out and buy it as a CD from the sort of excellent music stores - staffed by knowledgeable, welcoming and enthusiastic individuals - that were found in city centres at the time.
Those tracks bring back memories, especially the first two, which I well remember.
Terrific tracks.
A compelling guitar (and rhythm) piece from the (extraordinary) Spanish film (movie) Hable Con Ella, by Bau (who has also worked closely with the wonderful Cesária Évora), entitled Raquel.

Actually, until I looked it up, I hadn't realised that Bau (real name, Rufino Almeida) had worked closely with Cesária Évora (whose music I love).
Anyway, I am now listening to the superb album Cabo Verde by the late, legendary, Cesária Évora.

Haven't listened to any Singers Unlimited in awhile, mainly because it gave me PTSD from a surgery last year (I listened to the group consistently as I was recovering). Definitely less so now, thankfully, so I can enjoy it a lot more without thinking about that. Such an underrated and wonderful group, who I've taken a lot from.
Question for anyone here who listens to BBC Internet Radio. I recently downloaded a list of their stations, and according to it, BBC Radio 3 should be a mix of classical, jazz, and World music. I've been tuning in often over the last few weeks, and it's been 100% classical.
Did they change their format? Do they have a jazz-centric station? TIA.

Other Brother and I have been busy exchanging emails (about our shared childhood and teenage years, when we bought Beatles albums together) and trading Beatles tracks - we both love The Beatles (and have loved them since childhood).
So, we have been spending an afternoon listening to the Beatles.
