If you follow this npub, you might already know that you're looking at Jacob Cornelisz van Oostsanen's "The Laughing Fool".

But do you know what it means? Let's make a funny test and write on a piece of paper what you think about the fool when you look at him. Take your time. Or not...
After you write down your answer, look in the comments.

My only post for today, Clark Terry and Oscar Peterson with "Mack The Knife".
Have a great day!

Probably Brahms's most recognisable work, Hungarian Dance No.5, performed by the Hungarian Symphony Orchestra of Budapest while they were visiting the Musikverein of Vienna in 2012. In 1969, Brahms originally composed it for piano four-hands, and it's part of a set of 21 dances based on Hungarian folk themes.

I haven't posted classical guitar in quite some time, and today I'll fix that. We take a leap back to 1965, when a 17-year-old Paco de Lucía made a statement with his version of Ernesto Lecuona’s “Malagueña".
Have a great day!

My only post for today, Johan de Meij conducts his Symphony No. 1 "The Lord of the Rings", 5th movement, with "The President's Own" United States Marine Band.

Lately, I'm missing the Jazz scenery so I will end the day with Langston Hughes II playing John Coltrane's Central Park West.
Have a fine evening! 🎷🎹🥃🚬
👏👏👏

Did you ever hear Nina Simone playing the Sound of Silence from Simon and Garfunkel? This short recording was made during her trip for Montreux Jazz Festival in 1968.

For no reason at all other than my mood, Va Pensiero, the Hebrew Slaves Chorus, from Giuseppe Verdi's Nabucco. Credit to the Metropolitan Opera for this wonderful presentation.

Because some of you seem to be real connoisseurs when it comes to organs (see previous post), here are the details.
