It's not easy being a gay brain-sex icon and a straight brain-sex icon at the same time but ya boi Byron did it. Part 1 of 2. Poll in the thing for the next topic. I will abide by the results.

Byron: Life and Legend by Fiona MacCarthy

Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto No. 1 performed by Anna Fedorova and the Nordwestdeutsche Philharmonie led by Yves Abel (Creative Commons, version I used here)

IMHO the 1958 version with Van Cliburn and Fritz Reiner / Chicago Symphony on RCA is best.
