I do right click then open image in new tab and it downloads it as a tif that I can click on and look at - and see a screenshot of the link, which is a disappointment after the link.

Yup - supremely confusing Alf @Gordon Shumway  - the "real, actual" link is indeed

https://www.theguardian.com/mu.....irs-online

... which is the original link in @bocaholly's post - I have NO IDEA what the crazy character string means.... LOL

 Yeah, goog listening !  Ty Holly !!!

 

***EDIT*** please equate my "goog" as being "good"   D'Oh....facepalm

I didn't add this to the Guardian's page, but it's one of my teacher's groups (Sheila on viola).

Ohhh... honestly - only 1 minute in - that's just FUN FUN FUN and so well brought together in a "relatively simple mix" ( and no, NOT REALLY THAT SIMPLE, - I just mean a few numbers of players - and that has "its demands of its own" - well cool)....   TYVM for that LOVE IT....  it works realy, really well, nice vid, yup - say TYVM to Sheila, the/her players and the organisers who brought it together from me - GOOD WORK - wish **I** had a teach !!! LOLOL

Ok - truth comes out - by the time I finished writing this (and stopping more and more often to listen in detail) it has played 3 times over... still love it !!!!!!!  Yup sweet work without a doubt  !!!

Thanks, Alf  thumbs-up

They missed some of my favorite lockdown orchestra performances.

One I posted earlier, which I think is still my favorite of all:

 

Some Mozart:

 

I love the visual effect of this one, where they arranged the individual musicians' videos like an orchestra on stage:
