A concerto in E minor for flute and recorder by Telemann. (I've been learning the recorder a bit, and Telemann is one of my favourite Baroque composers.)

^ Nice, thanks.

And talking of Telemann - the Sonata in D major.
Played on a natural trumpet, so no valves. The only means of changing the pitch is the player's lips.

I liked both pieces. I should listen to more Telemann.

@ Phosphorous: do you play any other instruments?

I'm currently obsessed with ballet. It comes and goes. :lol:

Richard Strauss - Four Last Songs

Beim Schlafengehen

Now that I am wearied of the day,

my ardent desire shall happily receive 

the starry night

like a sleepy child.

Hands, stop all your work.

Brow, forget all your thinking.

All my senses now

yearn to sink into slumber.

And my unfettered soul 

wishes to soar up freely 

into night's magic sphere

to live there deeply and thousandfold.

Elīna Garanča – Saint-Saëns: “Mon coeur s'ouvre à ta voix” from Samson et Dalila

I watched the opera yesterday, but I’m still thinking about this aria.
