Happy Easter!

I usually post a favorite work of Easter art, but this year I've decided to do something a little different and post music instead. Enjoy!

Nerdworld Soundtrack: Mozart's "The Marriage of Figaro"

It's what I have playing right now, and it's fantastic, no?  Before you start thinking that I'm all fancy and sophisticated and cultured and whatever, let me tell you that I had completely forgotten about this piece until I heard it in Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation that I was watching earlier (excellent flick, by the way, and how The Marriage of Figaro shows up in it is absolutely in keeping with my irreverent sense of humor!).

Music Hath Charms: Vivaldi's "La Primavera" (Spring)

The calendar tells me that spring arrived on the 20th, even though the weather is still chilly.  Ah, well.  Let's have some Vivaldi, shall we?

Monday Therapy: "Let It Go" + Vivaldi = Awesome

The Piano Guys are always glorious, and this seems a fitting farewell to winter (a winter that was, by the way, utterly dominated by "Let It Go" everywhere one looked).  The weather is finally warming up a bit; it's still a little chilly up here in Nerdworld, but some daffodils have bravely begun to bloom!
