If you want something more traditional for #BandcampFriday, here is my debut album of classical music by Erik #Satie that has always been my best seller, despite wanting my own work to be that.

As I've said, all sales for the month of November will go to the National Women's Shelter Network, and as today is #BandcampFriday, that means more to give. This applies to both my music and art sales.

Hello everyone. After a five month break, I'm back and settling in here. For anyone new, I'm a Melbourne postgraduate student with a background in neuroscience and peer support. I tend to write longer, reflective posts about faith and the small moments of daily life, and I love it when a post turns into a good conversation in the replies.
For those who remember me, there is some news. I have almost finished my Master of Counselling and will graduate around July 2027. I have also stepped away from my choral scholar role after several years of singing in the choir. Church is something I'm rethinking at the moment, and I find myself drawn towards contemplative and liturgical spaces while I work out what comes next.
Music remains close to my heart. Classical music and live concerts are where I'm happiest, and you may catch me chatting along during ABC Classic broadcasts. I'm also a longtime Apple user who enjoys swapping app tips. I'm looking forward to reconnecting with familiar faces and meeting new people here.

I suppose an #introduction post is long overdue.
My name is PJ van Mill (pjvm for short; 'they'). I'm working as a doctorand/PhD-student at Maastricht University, in mathematical operations research.
I am interested in lots of other things. Two big ones for me are psychology, where I mostly engage with niches that are critical of mainstream psych, and leftist political analysis, where currently most of what I read is from an anarchist perspective. I'm also into some areas of law, namely copyright law and Dutch law on associations and other legal persons. I try to promote digital autonomy and I like simple and well-designed software.
I love classical music; I sing in two classical choirs in Maastricht and I like to do classical improvisation on keyboard instruments. I do some volunteer work for my choirs; for one of them I am currently a board member. I also make sheet music sometimes.
I have a website and a gemini capsule, for which I try to write stuff (I have a lot of stuff in my head that I have yet to get out into text) and where you can find some sheet music as well.
What else... well, I am some kind of queer, but it's all a bit vague, uncertain and hard to explain or label. One aspect that has more or less crystallised is that I really don't like it when people make gendered assumptions about me, and I would hesitantly label myself as agender. I'm also autistic; currently not pursuing a formal psychiatric diagnosis. Lastly, I suppose quite an important thing for me is that I grew up christian and am now agnostic.
I'm not very active on here; I read a lot of other people's posts but rarely make my own. I kind of want to change that, spend less time reading and more time interacting.

For the theme #AWiderWorld for #JukeboxFridayNight, here's Swara-Kakali from Menuhin Meets Shankar, featuring Indian sitar master Ravi Shankar with America classical violinist
Yehudi Menuhin.
My Dad used to play this when I was young (intermixed with Zeppelin and the Stones). It's still good.

Trumpets, viola and organ came together for an unusual finale at the Seiji Ozawa Matsumoto Festival, where musicians celebrated the enduring friendships forged through years of making music together. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/culture/2026/09/24/music/seiji-ozawa-matsumoto-festival/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #culture #music #seijiozawa #saitokinenorchestra #seijiozawamatsumotofestival #classicalmusic

今日はアントン・ヴェーベルンが誤射によって射殺された日。1945年、ザルツブルク近郊のミッタージルにて。享年61。
ヴェーベルンが射殺された家が面していた通りには今は「Anton-Webern-Gasse」と名付けられている。https://maps.app.goo.gl/ta9XR5jxU1LpE4YH9 現場にはそのことを示すブロンズのプレートが設置されている。https://larryalansmith.com/mittersill-webern-kofomi-28-2024/
カンタータ第3番の草稿が残されているが、スケッチ段階に留まっている。
ヴェーベルンを誤射したアメリカ兵の名前は判明しているが、有罪にはなっていない。しかし、退役後に自責の念に駆られてアルコールに溺れ、1955年に亡くなっている。

今日はドミトリ・ショスタコーヴィチの命日。1975年、モスクワの病院にて肺がんで没。享年68。
墓はノヴォデヴィチ墓地にあり、墓石に交響曲第10番や弦楽四重奏曲第8番などに使った「D-Es-C-H」のモチーフの楽譜が刻まれている。自らの名前を音名に置き換えたこのモチーフほど、作曲者の墓碑に相応しいものはないかも知れない。https://maps.app.goo.gl/e1uGgrwuBswzWtPL7

Hang on. I bought this album yesterday on #BandcampFriday. Listened to it as I made breakfast, then opened the paper to find it's music from a five-star reviewed play in the West End. This is my catnip. #PhilipGlass #ClassicalMusic @classicalmusic@fedigroups.social
Some progressive rock to close proceedings for me - although this is actually one of a couple of classical pieces composed by King Crimson that appeared on their early albums:
From the concert at Gunnar Sævigs Sal, May 15th 2026 in celebration of Robert Fripp’s 80th birthday., feat, Anna Bracke, oboe:

Birds are all over classical music - perching on musicians' shoulders, crapping on sheet music...
Actually, I don't mean that. I mean this:
