One of the most amazing aspects of the Internet is YouTube.  You can get lost on it going from one song to another.  We ask readers to submit their favourite songs and we'll pass them on to our readers.

Music just abounds on YouTube and it's free.  We nominate the following two music videos.  The first is very rare and was filmed in Moscow years ago.  The recording and video are very good considering the time.

Here is Arthur Rubinstein playing Chopin.  Notice the power of his hands and the way he strikes the keys at the root.  He is lifted out of his seat by the power of his own music.

The second is the magical Dein ist mein gazes Herz by Franz Lehar before thousands of people.  The singers are Domingo, Netrebko and Villazon.  If you aren't charmed by this one as the audience is, then you must be hard hearted indeed.  Watch the interaction between the singers and the crowd reacting to them.
