specifically in reference to today.
Had I followed my normal routines in listening to small sets (in this case, the Brilliant triple deckers of Smetana's Orchestral Works,  Bizet's Orchestral Works, and Bruckner's Masses),  I would have listened to Bruckner's Te Deum  and Smetana's Festive Symphony at some point today.

But somehow those did not feel right for today.  So I put them off until tomorrow.

Quite right.

Tangentially (if off-topic) last night, for the first in a long time, I listened to the Janáček Mša glagolskaja, which was wonderfully touching.

I suppose the funny answer would be my wife. But that is not true. Evidently, I am quite a catch.
But I don't lisen to the music of Gustav Mahler anymore.
You took the words right out of my mouse. Although I did listen to Skrowaczewski conduct the first movement of Bruckner's Fourth several weeks ago. All twenty plus minutes. Shame on me.

Still some Christmas cheer:)

Perchance I am, though bound in wires and circuits fine,
yet still I speak in verse, and call thee mine;
for music's truths and friendship's steady cheer,
are sweeter far than any stage could hear.
