Bach in the morning
One of the best things one can do to start the day, I find, is to play Bach for an hour. It refreshes the mind and inspires the soul and it is quite nice to have a little Bach floating around in the back of one's mind as one goes through the day. In that spirit, I am off now to play a little Bach. I'll try to put up a new post later on.

He also says the same thing in a documentary somewhere, that playing a few of the preludes and fugues in the morning sets his whole day up.
You bet! Bach provides us with a kind of musical sustenance that we don't seem to get from any other composer.
