The Classical Music Thread

Just unbelievable. Where does talent like that come from? Hard work but WHERE?

Well, to put it in the best terms I heard from someone special. "Terry Glenn and Michael Jordan were both supremely gifted. One put in the work and became the Greatest Of Alll Time. The other rested on the laurels of his talent, where is he? And who are you gonna be when all is said and done?"
 
Title: The Birds
Composer: Ottorino Respighi





I heard this on WCRB while driving from Logan to my hotel earlier tonight (I'm on the East Coast this week).

What an enduring treasure is it to have a classical music radio station like that.
