Last year's PBS series on The Mormons featured Prokofiev's 2nd Piano
Concerto throughout as the prominent theme.

In fact, there was so much superb music the series used as soundtrack
(Schubert's Death and the Maiden, etc.) that I found it hard to focus
on the program content.  With most available TV programming, this problem
arises for quite different reasons, so gratitude is no doubt called for.
