Goodtunes discussion

This thread is to discuss Classical music.

I enjoy listening to Mozart's spirited concertos and Bach. I like classical crossover as well. I look forward to listening to the new cd: Air, A Baroque Journey which blends different types of music together.

When I was in elementary school (back in the 60s and early 70s shhhh) we went to the Dallas Symphony every year. I never developed a real love for it but it wasn't bad.

I remember one year our PE coach went with us. He was one of those big, husky, intimating guys with the deep and very loud voice. Anyway, he fell asleep. Then they played Beethoven's 5th. It was a wonderful childhood memory of him jumping 10 feet in the air.

My favorite composer is Debussy. I love "Clair de Lune," "Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun," and "Arabesque."

But I have a list of other faves.

That's a funny story, Pamela.

Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata is one of my all time favorites. I still can't listen to it and keep a dry eye, if it's played right.
