Work music

I like Bach, and have an album of Brandenburg Concertos. I think the purported mathematical nature of his work appeals to my lower levels of consciousness, below the level of beautiful music appealing to my mind. But as of asking for suggestions, that is all I have. Thanks for the suggestions though, I will look for some of them. And the reminder - I just remembered I do like what I've heard of the Water Music 'suite'.

When I want to just go "head down" coding, when the design is done, I can really be productive with (believe it or not) John Philip Sousa marches!! Also, if you want a good source of streaming classical music, KUSC[^] has a very high quality streaming service. KUSC is the largest and most listened to public radio and non-profit classical music station in the country. It is based in Southern California. Mostly complete works with very little interruption. On-air staff really know their stuff.

I recommend Brubeck... Take 5
Aaah yes, I actually really like Take 5, but never knew who or the name. My dad was huge jazz buff until he died a few years ago, so I grew up with constant exposure to, but scant interest in, a massive range of good jazz.
