916. Original Motion Picture Soundtrack: The Lord of the Rings — The Return of the King. Music composed by Howard Shore. There are so many beautiful moments in this music, from the lighting of the beacons of Gondor to the grey havens theme to the finale sung by Annie Lennox. #CDsAtoZ 💿

Saturn, October 28th 2025. A beautiful sight with its rings almost edge-on. 1,300,000,000 kilometres away, or 70 light minutes. #astrophotography

915. Gustav Holst: The Planets. London Symphony Orchestra and Ambrosian Singers conducted by André Previn. That’s not a planet on the album cover, but Previn’s recording is as bright and sumptuous as always, even though it’s over 50 years old. ‘Mercury’ and ‘Neptune’ are my favourites. #CDsAtoZ 💿

913. Leonard Bernstein: Candide. London Symphony Orchestra and Chorus conducted by Leonard Bernstein. Delightful operetta, here in its final revised version, recorded shortly before Bernstein’s death. The story, based on Voltaire, is hilarious. Wonderful recording. #CDsAtoZ 💿

912. Dmitri Shostakovich: Symphony No. 5 in D minor. National Symphony Orchestra conducted by Mstislav Rostropovich. This is the seventh version of the 5th Symphony that I have on CD, because there is no rule or legislation that says I shouldn’t. #CDsAtoZ 💿

911. Benjamin Britten: Four Sea Interludes & Passacaglia from Peter Grimes. London Symphony Orchestra conducted by André Previn. Glorious music and here produced with Previn’s ability to make every performance luminous. #CDsAtoZ 💿

910. Vissarion Shebalin: Orchestral Music Volume Two. Siberian Symphony Orchestra conducted by Dmitry Vasiliev. First recordings of orchestral and ballet suites by Shebalin, the great Siberian composer and best mate to Shostakovich. Lush and beautiful and evocative. #CDsAtoZ 💿

909. Taylor Swift: The Life of a Showgirl. It’s a banger of an album, with some great instrumentation. Brighter in mood than her two previous albums and quite funky. Damn this woman is consistently brilliant and filled with ideas. #CDsAtoZ 💿

908. Leonard Cohen: Thanks for the Dance. Released posthumously and mostly containing words by Leonard and music by his son Adam. Just amazing and it really tests out my subwoofers. #CDsAtoZ 💿

907. Lana Del Rey: Born to Die. Dreamy and cinematic music is what Lana Del Rey is all about. ‘Video Games’ is something else altogether. #CDsAtoZ 💿
