1. What are you listening to on your iPod these days?
Both of the new Grammy-nominated discs by the choir Seraphic Fire from Miami. One is a Christmas CD and the other is the Brahms Requiem in its more intimate piano 4 hands version. I am supposed to review them soon on my choral music blog: www.paulcarey440.blogspot.com. Otherwise I unwind listening to quality Latin jazz.
