Your music preferences are from a saner time in a number of ways.

The nice thing I’ve noticed on You Tube is that there are quite a few respectable “micropublishers” of music in a classical bent. Modern technology greatly eases what was a laborious effort for Beethoven et al. Though Beethoven himself expressed contempt for the “keyboard cowboy.” All I can do is grin back at Ludwig and say yeehaw, what one age says never to becomes the habit of the next. Also with MIDI has come “impossible toccatas.” See the score. Wish you had more fingers.

My last classical effort at the Canteen was just this past year (2017). It was a survey of Beethoven’s chamber music.
