Who Did It Best - Chopin or Rachmaninoff

Bringing You Purrfect Music Every Day!

Ok… That might be a bit of a loaded question. Both composers were and still are wonderful. However, comparing their styles does make for a rather interesting listening experience. And if you closed your eyes, could you guess which composer created the piece?

One of the cool things about the comparison between these two composers, was that Rachmaninoff was supposedly greatly inspired by Chopin. So, did the student outdo his teacher..?

Every day is a new experience, we face new challenges, and we learn new ways to overcome. And that is why every day I aim to bring something different, with bringing my own songs to the mix, along with some other great artists – from nature, meditation music, chill music, binaural beats, and of course, classical music.

So, whatever mood you are in, I have something for you!

Let us not forget our mascot for the channel – Wolfgang… Whom you may see pop up from time to time. Watch out for him. 
