Season three of Ozark came out yesterday. First episode was pretty darned good.
I got a little tired of Ozark. I’ll have to try again. I’m watching a show on Amazon called a French Village. It’s in French with English subtitles set in a small village in France during the Nazi occupation. Pretty interesting. The only problem is there are four seasons and prime only has seasons 13 and four. You have to pay separately for season two. Which I’ll probably do

Bernstein conducting the Fifth and the Sixth.
Just about anything by Neville Mariner and the AOSMITF.
Steinberg conducting the first movement of Brahms Fourth.
Haydn’s Water Music.
For an offbeat stream try Fortitude on Prime. They haven’t added the final season and it’s driving me nuts.

Many performing arts organizations are broadcasting performances free.
Over the next several weeks, [b]San Francisco Symphony[/b]
is releasing its Keeping Score series of programs for free on its YouTube channel. They’re nine deep dives into the history and stories behind masterworks of great composers, hosted by Michael Tilson Thomas, followed by full performances by the Symphony. The first set, available now, begins with Copland, Ives, and Shostakovich, and in coming weeks, it continues with Mahler, Berlioz, Tchaikovsky, Beethoven, and Stravinsky. The series gives context for the works, and how the lives of the composers led them to write the Eroica, Rite of Spring, or Symphonie Fantastique.
The Metropolitan Opera is broadcasting an opera nightly, at Met Opera
All “Nightly Met Opera Streams” will begin at 7:30pm EDT and will remain available via the homepage for 23 hours. The homepage link will open the performance on the Met Opera on Demand streaming service. The performance will also be viewable on all Met Opera on Demand apps.

Love "Ode to Joy". My (at the time) five year old called it "God music" when he heard it the first time. I'd have to agree...

Judy Collins still has it after all these years.

This is just the first song I've heard from the album, not necessarily the best one.

This seems like an apropos song for the current pandemic:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rKC7ElkTUQ
Quote:I've got a cupboard with cans of food
Filtered water and pictures of you...
The song, by
The Postal Service (a collaboration between a Death Cab for Cutie's Ben Gibbard and electornica producer Dntel (Jimmy Tamborello) was produced in 2003 (and describes a post apocalyptic future), but seems very apropos:
Quote:I wanted to walk through the empty streets
And feel something constant under my feet
But all the news reports recommended that I stay indoors
Interestingly the album was produced at a distance, with Gibbard and Dntel mailing each other CDs with updated tracks (which is why the named themselves
The Postal Service. Today, they would share files over dropbox or something, but in any case, very eerie how apropos this track (and album) is.

PS, should I move this thread over to the COVID-19 board?

I've been on a Jacob Collier kick lately. Here's one of his latest with his collaborators in various bathrooms:

(How come the editor doesn't work when using the Media insert function?)
He's a musical prodigy who did a residency at MIT to push new high-tech approaches to music. This video of him at USC made my jaw drop:
