Let's have a thread where we share our favourite YouTube videos! (Classical music only, although we could start other threads for other genres...)

I'll go first!

Antonion Soler, vastly underrated and mostly unheard of, and his Sonata in B-min played by a very good "amateur".

Belgian-French so he might have an accent for you Nico.

Grainger plays a Bach Prelude and Fugue transcribed by Liszt. Perhaps the best recording of this P&F EVER!

Hmm, I've never heard of that piece before... but why do I get the feeling that my hands couldn't even reach half the chords in that piece?

That's better than I could do...I could not even play the opening bar correctly.
