I’ve never been a great jazz fan, but I did start to listen to and appreciate jazz a little more. Here are a couple of my favourites by Miles Davis, both in live performances:
Miles Davis Group, Time After Time
Miles Davis Quintet, Miles Runs The Voodoo Down
It’s hard to find good classical clips on YouTube, but here’s a sample of some of the classical music I’ve enjoyed over the past year:
Richard Strauss, Four Last Songs, No. 4: Im Abendrot (Renee Fleming)
Dmitri Shostakovich, String Quartet No. 8 (Borodin Quartet)
Bela Bartok, String Quartet No. 3 (Kontras Quartet)
Olivier Messiaen, Turangalila-Symphony (Movement 1, annotated)
