Three Botticelli Pictures by Respighi.
Try Satie’s Gnossienne#1! It is haunting. My favorite Satie piece.

It is mostly Sondheim and right now I am obsessed with this version of Merrily. We have tickets for the Broadway run in October. The amazing connection is that this production of Maria Freedman’s production from London, and the one on the recording stars her! She sang Mary.
As a bonus, Jay Records is one of the great sources for show music and their recording/engineering is absolutely brilliant. Their releases of Merrily and of A Little Night Music are not just great documents of Sondheim’s work, but also two of the best CDs I own in sonic quality. Jay Records is constantly recording, remastering and remixing classic shows. Their Anyone Can Whistle is another brilliant document. And they remastered the English National Opera’s Pacific Overtures which is a massively good production.
