I would like to suggest that Beethoven's fifth piano concerto is still a fucking masterpiece.

I can see that. My favorite Beethoven concerto is whichever one I happen to be listening to at the moment.

Yep. Right now I'm listening to Mahler 7, which at the moment is my favorite work ever.

Mahler's 7th it was for me today as well. Though I was too distracted and didn't get beyond the first movement. One of my favorites; summer music.

There's a wonderful performance with Boulez available for streaming on 's website. It's what I've just listened to. It's part of the orchestra's Mahler fest.

Talking about Mahler, today I unrelatedly came across this beautiful Jarmusch short that I had forgotten about, featuring Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen. youtu.be/-FYLkBcJBys
