♭ ♯ ♮ Revising with music...

I haven't written a blog post in absolutely ages!

I've just started school after half term, so I'm back into work mode! Before the half term, I had lots of end of topic tests in most of my subjects, so I was very busy revising :(

When I revise for tests, or do homework, I listen to classical music (I'm a music enthusiast), as it helps me concentrate and focus. Throughout my revision madness, I found many classical playlists on Spotify and listened to Classic Fm and Radio 3 non-stop; thus discovering many sonatas, symphonies, preludes etc...

I thought it would be a good idea to share some of these playlists/pieces of music with you - they have been my favourites over the past few weeks, and maybe you might discover some pieces you haven't before, or possible help you study!

SPOTIFY PLAYLISTS :
Ambient Piano : Focus and Study
Intense Studying
Peaceful Piano
Perfect Concentration
