Richard Strauss' Violin Concerto.

"Richard Strauss's Concerto for Violin and Orchestra in D minor was written in 1881-1882.

Although virtuosic, the first movement in particular is clearly influenced by the Classical period."

Awesome! Thanks for the info Wikipedia!

Oracle















χρηστηριασαμένου αὐτοῦ τί πράττων ἄριστα βιώσεται, ἀπο-
κρίνασθαι τὸν θέον, εἰ συγχρωτίζοιτο τοῖς νεκροῖς·

When Zeno [of Citium] consulted the oracle to find out what he should do to live the best life the god answered that to live the best life he should join his flesh with the dead.

-Diogenes Laertius (Lives of the Stoics, 7.2)
