Few things can be as exciting, as uplifting, a cause for a savoring pause as the sweeping beauty of a glorious melody. I spend much too little time feeding my soul with classical music which I so love! But, with the holidays at hand, I went to my iTunes collection and did a search for Пётр Ильич Чайкoвский. Ok, ok... so I typed it in English: Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. 
Out from the speakers popped the Berlin Symphony Orchestra's performance of Pas de deaux from the Nutcracker. Dear god that's just so plangent it's astoundingly brilliant, beautiful melodic composition! [Yes, remember, you can double click on any word on my blog for its definition.]
