@barliman2001 You saved the best for last. Interesting coincidence (sort of): I watched it last Thursday. It's been my favorite for years.

Well, because of Covid restrictions, I will be spending a Christmas alone. So I will be listening to a lot of music, and thanks to you, sir, I will save these videos to watch and enjoy Brandenburg # 2 through the ages on Christmas day.
I could listen to Maurice, alone, all day long.
