You might enjoy a little of The Seldom Scene, here doing With Body and Soul.

And here's another. The song is a bit schmaltzy, but the lead singer has such ease and sincerity.

Music unadorned. It grounded me on a day of flux. Thanks Roger.

The “Siren Waltz” by the teenage Alma Deutscher is brilliant. Listen to what she says before the music.

This is affirmation that the creative spirit is alive and just as capable of producing beauty as ever. Old souls are born every day.

Thanks for sharing this.

Here's one that truly meets the definition of "Great Performances," except perhaps "great" doesn't do it justice. I love not just listening, but watching Glenn Gould play the Goldberg Variations. I think it's fair to say it's as great as any work of art, from Michaelanelo's David to Hamlet.
