Sinfonia Concertante by W. A. Mozart, 2nd Movement.
His father, Raymond Legrand was the student of Gabriel Faure’! I’m impressed. Monseiur Faure’ is best known to me by Two compositons: A...The Pavane in F Sharp Minor, Opus 50.
I only know of it because in the 1980’s a TV station would sign off at 2AM with that song.
They would show a pair of Swans gliding on a pool in the dusk. At the end of the song, the swans were both asleep, heads tucked under their feathered wings.
I never forgot that peaceful promenade into Dreamland.
B. Requiem Opus 48; Introit and Kyrie.
I heard this done acapella and sung by a Boy’s Choir.
Hauntingly beautiful!
Yes, he links to it in the column.
Profound article...

For some strange reason I also like Harrison's.
Hate his politics, but Sting is a good interpreter of songs.

More like Mozart. Same key, same chord pattern and almost the same melody.

What Are You Doing The Rest Of Your Life (1972 Demo Recording)
LOL, she did a great cover of "Respect".
The song came from "The Magic Garden of Stanley Sweetheart," the 1969 film that introduced Don Johnson to the world.
