A collaboration of: “The Classic Music Mafia”
nkit, Austrian Peter, and Steve C.
Every Sunday morning we present selections for our TBP family to enjoy.
We present symphonies, ensembles, quartets, octets, etc.
Not all of our music is strictly ‘classical’. We may stray a little, but we strive to make all of our selections ‘classy’.
We offer tips on proper ‘symphony etiquette’ and even some selections that are a bit light-hearted and fun aimed at a younger audience. Those pieces will be so designated, and might be a good way to introduce kids to a world of music that they might not have been exposed to or think of as old and ‘stuffy’.
A full symphony will run as long as it will. We don’t want to cut a symphony short. However, we also include some shorter pieces that we try to keep under fifteen minutes in length. You can sample each and hopefully find one or more that pleases you.
We hope that you enjoy our Sunday selections.

I SURELY DO !!!
I’ve been negligent in saying anything. Shame on me. But, I pretty much have been playing every piece while on the ‘puter on Sundays.
I’m just lovin’ me that Hungarian Dance!
Your work is very much appreciated.
What? No criticism of the boring title?
I usually listen a bit too.
Good for you Maggie.
I hope that you find something that you like each week.
Thank you Stucky.
That’s very nice of you to say.
The Hungarian Dance was my ‘short’ for this week. Those kids really do a good job with it.
We all do our best…
This week’s edition concludes our first year.
We started this on February second of last year and have been doing it every week since.
Be sure to tune in next week to our special “First Year Anniversary” edition.
I really appreciate this contribution to TBP. I listen every chance I get. I can’t believe it’s been a whole year since you started. Time sure does fly.
