A collaboration of: “The Classic Music Mafia”
Anthony Aaron, 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.

Keith Jarrett’s Köln Concert was a live performance January 24, 1975, in Köln, Germany. It is considered one of his greatest performances as well as an important work in the jazz universe.
This is a cover of the first part of that performance for two guitars … I hope you enjoy it.

I thought that some Sunday music for a Sunday would be good. Here are two submittals.
Amazing Grace with more than 200 bagpipes; live in Berlin
“Battle Hymn of the Republic” w/ the Mormon Tabernacle Choir LIVE from West Point
There is no doubt that John Denver is a treasured classic, and this lady is also.
I recall her incredible ‘Up’ concert in Chicago in 2017 … so many great songs …
I have probably posted this before but the historic details of the *Genius child prodigy* is worth a review.
