Prolific Ponderings, Mellifluous Melodies and Naked or Nearly So

The last couple of days I have expended due diligence in the effort to catch up on my feeds.   It seems that every one on the Internet has lots to say or reveal and an extraordinary number of photographs to post.  It is an almost unbelievable number of prolific ponderings and photograph postings than I have seen in quite a while.  I will do my best to work my way through the over 700 articles and photographs (or groups of photographs) remaining, which has me well behind the curve leading up to tomorrows post.  I do have my work cut out for me, especially so as I have the upcoming visit to my Mother this afternoon to work in there as well.   I think I am working harder (at least mentally) on my days off than I did during my regularly scheduled work shifts.  I guess there really is no rest for the wicked, lol!

In an effort to appear cool, calm and collected in the face of the very real trepidation I feel regarding the impending visit to my Mother, your play list for today includes every Piano Nocturne composed by Frederic Chopin.  The video encompasses a marvelous performance by Italian Pianist Maurizio Pollini.  The order in which the Nocturnes are played is 0:00 Op. 9/1 in B♭m,  4:47 Op. 9/2 in E♭,  8:50 Op. 9/3 in B,  14:30 Op. 15/1 in F,  18:28 Op. 15/2 in F#,  21:40 Op. 15/3 in Gm,  25:51 Op. 27/1 in C♯m,  30:05 Op. 27/2 in D♭,  34:59 Op. 32/1 in B,  39:08 Op. 32/2 in A♭,  43:47 Op. 37/1 in Gm,  49:07 Op. 37/2 in G,  55:02 Op. 48/1 in Cm,  1:00:10 Op. 48/2 in F♯m,  1:06:47 Op. 55/1 in Fm,  1:11:07 Op. 55/2 in E♭,  1:15:42 Op. 62/1 in B,  1:21:41 Op. 62/2 in E and  1:26:58 Op. 72 in Em.
