It was bound to happen sometime... tell you whut - you don't tell anyone, and i won't either... :-) Yes. I really like the Concerto in D Minor for the Left Hand.

The opening two minutes are this satiny crescendo that starts out quiet&slow - but by the time it's over you are 100% guaranteed wide awake. Jmho...
