The moon is actually more useful than the sun since the moon gives us light at night when it's dark. The sun only gives us light during the day when it's already bright out.

Will give you a longer clip when I get home. It's classical, and for those in the UK, think Morecambe and Wise with Andy Preview...

I think it might be a piano concerto by Grieg. I could confirm it if I could find my Finlandia album.

Oops! Never mind!

It was indeed that nice Mr Tchaikovsky, Mad thumbsup. Remember my father playing Arthur Rubenstein's version on a 12" 78 rpm record on a wind-uo gramaphone...

Listened to Griegs piano concerto again - see why it could be mistaken for Tchaikovsky

Just out of interest, Urban Worrier, do you have a link to Morecamb and Wise with Andre Previn and the Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto ??

All I can find is the one where the Grieg is played ....

I should have known also, LadyKestrel …. having even played parts of it myself in the very long ago dim and distant past redface

The “Morecamb and Wise” clue initially sent me down the wrong path !!

( I don’t remember Tchaikovsky ever being featured on their show. )

EDIT :

Thanks, Urban Worrier.
