Your wait is over! After last week’s Part One of Headphone Commute’s Best of Modern Classical 2010, I am back with the second half of this mix. A little less strings, a little more piano this time, this selection of tracks goes perfectly with today’s Music For Watching The Snow Slowly Fall In The Moonlight. Featuring my favorite tracks from my favorite modern classical albums of 2010, Part Two, subtitled Ascending Into Spirit, takes you on a journey into unknown, and brings you back to the source. As usual, the music speaks better than words, so I’ll let the artists do the talking. Thank you for all of your support!
