My favorite album

I think this is my all time favorite piece of music: http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/mozart-music-for-two-pianos-piano-duets-ludwig-hoffmann/11217?ean=28945402628

I’ve been listening to it for 20 years.  I used to play it for my children when they were little as they fell asleep.  Not infrequently, they would want me to lay on the ground next to them until they were asleep, and we would lay there and listen to this, some other Mozart (I love all his piano concertos), and a Baroque compilation I had.

Of course, I wanted little geniuses, because at that time I vastly overvalued intelligence.  My views evolved quickly.  Today, they ARE quite smart, but I am much prouder that they are well rounded, responsible, genuinely decent human beings.

I’ve put myself on a Facebook fast, so I may post a tad more personal stuff here.
