Here are a few books I'm reading/listening to these days. In no particular order. And in no particular stage of completion:

3. The Greek Way (Edith Hamilton)
4. Jeremiah (God)
5. Agamemnon (Aeschylus)

2. Late Violin Concertos (Vivaldi - Carmignola/Venice Baroque Orchestra; vol. 2)
3. O Brother, Where Art Thou (Soundtrack to Cohen Bros. movie by same name)
4. Grandes Motets (J.P.Rameau - Christie/Les Arts Florisants)

And movies, where are pretty rare for me:
