Beautiful, I'm an enormous fan of piano without words, and have listened to Chopin on repeat for years.
This album just brings an enormous wave of calmness, appreciation for life, and also focus.
It's the perfect reading soundtrack, or working, or even just sitting and thinking (hugely underrated activity).
Being a computer scientist by trade, I sometimes feel I should be listening to bloody binaural beats or something, but nothing makes me feel the way this type of music does. It just feels right, like putting on a glove, it simply fits.
Excellent edition as always, I I look forward to it even more each passing week.
Thank you Conor. I think it's important to highlight how these pieces were listened to. They were usually meant to accompany dinners or to celebrate someone's birthday. Joyous occasions and whatnot. It feels right because it's meant to "feel right" as opposed to any other more distinctive emotion!
Couldn’t agree more Conor, this is one of my favourite newsletters. Every week I learn something new and come away with a new appreciation for a particular musician, or piece of music, or life in general.

Interesting, that makes sense really. Impressive thing to accomplish!

Wonderful work.

Thank you Thomas. I haven't scratched the surface yet.
