Classical Music and Masterpieces. A Balm for our souls

"Without music, life would be a mistake".

Friedrich Nietzsche was absolutely right when he said this.

 According to the Scriptures, even God loves it. "He said to play and sing songs in his honour and for his joy."
Also in the wilderness  many mammals and animals seem to sing (and they do) in special moments.

Thank God for all these Genius who came down from heaven to make the world much more pleasant with their amazing Masterpieces.

It's really very hard to make a list of all your favorite songs and musicians.
These are a few ones (of a short list)  that I always listen to almost everyday.
 For sure someone is missing but I did my best and here it is.
