    Just wanted to add that this is an awesome thread. It's so lovely to see different genres of music all together. I love Music, always have and always will.
    Android better in this, maybe, but Apple is the King in almost everything else
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    I know!!! Murray Gold is an amazing composer. Neil Hannon of The Divine Comedy sings that one.

    Paula Jacqueline du Pre is one of the most expressive of cellists and it hard to find anyone who is as good though if you want a modern cellist check out Alisa Weilerstein.

    I'll return later to listen to it in its entirety as it's time for tea (dinner)

    Jaq Flower Duet with Anna Natrebko is brilliant especially as I fancy Anna

    What’s the chances? I was watching mastermind (which I never do) and one of the specialist rounds was on Jacqueline Du Pre!

    Mike, thank you for the Alisa Weilerstein tip. So, so beautiful - rich and all enveloping!

    I've known this song sung by Nanci Griffith but I've found a recording of the writer and original performer of the song Kate Wolf who died in 1986, at age 44, after a long battle with leukemia.
