Every night, my son and I conclude our Stories and Studies hour with the listening of three pieces of music.  Usually, but not always, classical.

Here is a listing of the music themes I have blogged about since July 2014.   To read a few short lines of well-written bewitching information about each of the compositions, click on the magnifying glass icon (near the bottom of the blog title-block) and type the blog post title (shown below in quotation marks and italics) into the search bar.
