Parsons Playlists: Walking Music
Although we are all socially distant at the moment, we thought it might be fun and encouraging to share playlists as a way to connect (with a tip of the hat to our friends at the Modlin Center for the Arts who started sharing playlists a couple of weeks ago).
To kick things off here’s a play list from Linda Fairtile, the Head of Parsons Music Library.
Dr. Fairtile says, “It’s a mix of jazz and classical music that I listen to on my morning walk. It makes me happy and gets my feet moving.”
Ahmad Jamal – “Poinciana (Live at the Pershing, Chicago 1958)”
Silvestre Revueltas – “Caminando” (1937)
Oscar Peterson – “Night Child”
Philip Glass – “Akhnaten (Act I, Scene I: Funeral of Amenhotep III)”
Stanley Turrentine – “Pieces of Dreams”
