Fritz's World

An exciting and awe-inspiring glimpse into my life: movie reviews (which are replete with spoilers), Penn State football, Washington Nationals, and life here in the nation's capital. Can you handle it?

Beautiful music (X)

I seem to have opened the floodgates with Rachmaninoff, because after posting about his 10 Preludes, Op. 23, I now feel the urge to continue with the 13 Preludes, Op. 32. As before, all are performed by Vladimir Ashkenazy.

And for my money, I have yet to find anyone who can bring out the great Russian pathos of No. 10 like Ashkenazy does.
