Brahms

Brahms is sublime (The composer, not Braum's, the ice cream shop, LOL...my brain went there, even though they are not spelled the same).
More specifically, his Symphony No. 3 in F major...
Lots of highlights on the bassoon (what I played in my best years of high school and college) and oboe sections, and the contra bassoon has the whole stage to himself a time or two! Wow!

And Les Préludes, Symphonic Poem No. 3 by Franz Liszt is majestic and divine! Click on the title to hear a sample. Although, I just noticed that the sample is from one of the quieter sections. Maybe I'll dig around later to find a better sample!

I didn't want the weekend to end!
