I work in the music business (concert production) and I have had 'gig-mares'. Not an uncommon thing for folk in the biz. Why, just today I was told a road case full of two-way radios was not returned tot the rental house and went into Artist storage. I
I know about job-mares. I was in industrial sales, but 10-15 years later
I still had dreams of calls I was supposed to make and hadn't--this long >after I'd begun teaching
I always listen to music as I go to sleep - I put on a playlist in iTunes or YT. So the question is what works and what doesn't.
List of music that works:
- my own songs, best of all. I have an album of 12 songs made in Garageband
- Modern Gospel - Clarke Sisters, Dorinda, Kim Burrell etc
- Garage tracks in YT
- Bill Evans trio with Gomez and Zigmund
- Jazz singers slow numbers, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Carol Welsman, Diane Shuur, Dianne Reeves, Shirley Horne, Lou Rawls, Dr John, Taj Mahal etc
- Steely Dan/Donald Fagen tracks, selected
- Debussy Preludes Book 1
- Beethoven selected piano sonatas
- Schubert selected piano sonatas
- Wagner Meistersinger
- Ravel L'Enfant et les Sortileges
I find that vocal music tends to work and piano is pretty good. Orchestral not good - too many dynamic contrasts. Bach doesn't work either.

1. Don’t dwell on all the bad news that has intensified since the onset of Covid.Sleep is overrated, and I mean continuous sleep thru the night.
It rarely happens I'm not awake for some time between three and four a.m. and I love hearing my girlfriend's breathing...
