Deliberately long podcast. Love hearing all these people I’ve never heard of before doing ridiculous things and generally being so humble about it all.

Great documentary on the life of Rachmaninoff. Tom Service is an engaging presenter. Worth watching if you get the opportunity.
Only available until the end of January 2016, though it might reappear as these things sometimes do: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p039q3qd/the-joy-of-rachmaninoff

# Lines that start with '#' are comments.
# For a project mostly in C, the following would be a good set of
# exclude patterns (uncomment them if you want to use them):
