I went through a period where I was very suicidal and was driving 1-1/2 to work twice a week at high speeds. I often thought about crashing the car into an embankment.
Instead, I started listening to Bach two and three part inventions. Mostly played by Angela Hewitt. I also got a CD of the Tocattas, the piano concertos, the violin concertos, the cello suites. I loved the inventions. Trying to keep track of all the parts absorbed my attention while I was driving. Also, just being so amazed that someone could play pieces that were so intricate and complicated.
I love Bach. After that I love Chopin. I could listen to his Ballades all day.
