Tom and Jerry - The Cat Concerto (1947) This is considered one of the best Tom and Jerry cartoons ever made, one critic even claimed it was the best movie of 1947. It was also the fourth consecutive Best Animated Short Oscar win for producer Fred Quimby.

Honored to have been asked to suggest a new theme, so for the next week or so: musical instruments. Here’s a shot of two basses on the floor of Abbey Road Studio 2, taken in 2022 with a Nikon Z6.

Gustav Mahler conducted Edward Elgar's "Enigma Variations" between November and December 1910 with the New York Philharmonic. Mahler admired the work and this was a rare instance of him conducting the work of a British composer.
