I love when the moon is shining through clouds giving off a cold glow like ghostly light, and I see it now outside my window glowing through the bare tree branches

Ben Britten was a man at odds with the world. It’s strange. On the surface, Britten’s music would seem to be decorative, positive, charming, but it’s so much more than that. If you really listen to (his music), you become aware of something very dark. There are gears that are grinding and not quite meshing, and they make a great pain. (For him) it was a difficult and lonely time. Yes, he was a man at odds with the world....and he didn’t show it.
- Leonard Bernstein on Benjamin Britten

A Time There Was… (Benjamin Britten):
(My apologies to the person who submitted this suite, I struggled to find the version you requested on youtube to link, though I think this is the same recording)

okay, probably not that popular compared to the other entries in this lineup, but hear me out: schumann captured the delicate flutter of butterflies so fucking well onto the piano in this piece. it's a perfect balance between joy and melancholy. it's so beautiful that i made a fanfic out of it (way to go for giving myself away, i guess). personal favs in this suite include the seventh piece (semplice) and the eleventh.

First I must confess that Britten is a favourite of mine, but using 3/2 does make me want to throttle him a little.
I'll forgive him because the pizzicato section is just ridiculously fun to play.
