They’re all good, but I especially like this rendition of “Air on the G String.”

That bass part would have to be awfully boring to play, however.

Enjoy!

Very pretty! Kind of educational/informative, too. It sort of “dissects” the music so us non-musicians can better visualize the relationship of the score and the notes. Thank’ee!

Rite of Spring is amazing. Best of the bunch by far, for me.

Here’s “Toccata and Fugue in D Minor”, which as of today has been viewed more than 24 million times. 🆒
