Antes de aterrizar en Alcalá de Henares, y para aligerar un poco la maleta, digitalicé mis CDs favoritos a MP3: Enya, Vangelis, Jean Michel Jarre, Enigma, John Williams, Michael Nyman, Howard Shore... En particular, de las adquisiciones del último año, me quedo con la BSO de El Señor de los Anillos: |
