Music is the mediator between the spiritual and the sensual life. - Ludwig van Beethoven

Now playing CD5 from this set for the first time.  Symphony No. 3 somehow was split between CD4 and CD5.  This has to be the longest symphony on record ...

Solitary Wanderer



Disc.1. Swiss - my favourite of the three books  :)
'I lingered round them, under that benign sky: watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth.' ~ Emily Bronte
