The disco prom was absolutely joyous.

These days, I find Verdi's Requiem a little too excessive, with everything turned up way past 11. I missed yesterday's performance of Faure's Requiem so will have to give that a listen at some point.

Here's one for you if you like classical music... It's the national youth brass band that I recently filmed.

That is a very explicit exhibition of why I like some classical music but not all of it

The same for me which doesn't help when I have to sit through these pieces several times each.
