What are we listening to right now..


I greatly appreciate your sharing this YouTube piece; I know a little (as piano teacher/professor) about Heinrich Neuhaus 1888 - 1964 (wiki here) born in Yelisavetgrad (present-day Kropyvnytskyi, Ukraine), but I never heard this specific performance which is very much impressive for me. Thank you, again.

Martin Gore covers Leonard Cohen
 
RoyJonesJr. was one the greatest #4# boxers... until his rudder broke and no one told him he really could not sing.
Roy Jones Jr. - Y'all Must've Forgot (Official Music Video)
(If boxing is a foreign language to you; move along.;))
His song title came-up during yesterday's current-events headline.
Well, to me this is not bad, and I should really include it my workout soundtrack
For me absolutely no relationship with any current events, politics is more Machiavelli rather than these types of songs

There's also this classic:
 
Cesare Siepi arguably had the best legato in the recorded era. Among lyric basses, he really had (has) no peer. I heard him fairly late in his career and the voice was still sure and steady and HUGE without a trace of strain and with little apparent effort. I haven't heard anyone since who comes close. Listen (via youtube) to Ella giammai m'ammo. The quality of his line and dynamo control is astounding.

My remark was - not about politics, as it was - about the same thing RoyJonesJr. was trying to remind us of (his) forgotten history.
We tend to do that as a human collective... while... fecal matter keeps transpiring around us.

OT: /RJJ was 'basically' undefeated in 50 [=49+1dq] professional prizefights. He won world titles in four different weight classes and was the first former middleweight champ in 106 years to win a heavyweight title./

I feel these performances by Takahiro SONODA has similar preferable (to me) tendencies/style as Heinrich Neuhaus; I have whole CD album of Sonoda's JS Bach Wohltemperierte Klavier BWV846-893:
