Valentine’s Day Playlist

Classical Music Indy now brings you free listening playlists through Spotify.

Valentine’s Day Playlist

To help your Valentine’s Day plans, Michael Toulouse created a list of music inspired by the Lover’s Holiday. You can read the full original article with Michael’s commentary on each piece here.

It’s Valentine’s Day! Light a fire, unwrap a box of chocolates, pop open a bottle of champagne, and cuddle with your sweetheart. Note that only one of those things requires the participation of another human being. And in that spirit, I offer a list bathed in the full spectrum of love, from the totally imaginary, to the tragically unrequited, to the ecstatically fulfilled, to the catastrophically extinguished. Some of these loves were concrete, while others were more abstract. But they had one thing in common: they all inspired great music.

Holiday Listening Playlist from Kyle Long

Classical Music Indy now brings you free weekly listening playlists through Spotify.

Holiday Listening Playlist from Kyle Long

Last year we asked our friend Kyle Long to make a list of eclectic music for Holiday Listening. Kyle hosts Cultural Manifesto on WFYI Wednesdays at 8pm, DJs locally, and writes for NUVO magazine. You can read the full original article with Kyle’s commentary on each album here.

‘Tis the season when that razor thin songbook of commercial holiday standards comes blaring out of every shopping mall and department store speaker in sight. While I do enjoy hearing Ella Fitzgerald “ring ting tingling” her sleigh bells every December, I prefer to dig deeper into the vast catalog of holiday tunes for my own Yuletide musical fix. Fortunately, there’s a wide world of under appreciated holiday music out there just waiting to be discovered. So if your holiday wish list includes a request for some fresh seasonal sounds, I’ve assembled an assortment of recommended songs for you below.
