I like almost everything. Not a fan of rap or hip hop, though. ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you." Rebecca Clark IP: Logged |

Sorry to gross everyone out, but I'm a classical person!! I don't have much exerience with non- classical music, except maybe Celtic. Grieg, Bach, Beethoven, Handel, Mozart, Rachmaninoff, Hindemith, Telemann, Correlli, Britten, Barber, the guy who wrote the Enigma Variations, and Dolores Keane are all good. Do I need to broaden my musical tastes? For some reason I think System of a Down is cool, as is Eminem. I like sampling ethnic music- tango, African stuff, country. I guess I can listen to anything. ------------------ No longer mourn for me when I am dead Than you shall hear the surly sullen bell Give warning to the world that I am fled From this vile world, with vilest worms to dwell. -Shakespeare IP: Logged |

everyone's tastes are different. I don't really know alot about classical music, except the pieces I heard in music class. I always prefered the more 'dramatic' pieces...IP: Logged |

Z, it's great you have music classes! I do too, but many American kids don't. Music is important to a well- rounded education. ------------------ No longer mourn for me when I am dead Than you shall hear the surly sullen bell Give warning to the world that I am fled From this vile world, with vilest worms to dwell. -Shakespeare IP: Logged |

Zerep- you didn't know, but the American public school system is in shreds. While there are a few good public schools in the wealthier areas, most schools are under- staffed and under- financed. They can't afford to hire good teachers or buy textbooks, let alone buy instruments or music. There just isn't any funding for schools in federal budgets. This means kids who can't afford to go to a private school have less chance than ever of getting a real education and of going someplace. It's a pathetic situation."It will be a great day when our schools have all the money they need and the Air Force has to hold a bake sale to buy a bomber." - bumper sticker ------------------ "Those who live by the sword, die by the sword." - Anonymous IP: Logged |

Yes, Europeans are luckey. Aphrodite- I think Mahler is a bit too reliant on fanfares from the brass, but he did produce some really cool music- the third movement of his first symphony, for example. And that figure in The Titan's firt movement- .... So simple, so cool! Right now I am listening to a cd called "On the Banks of the Helicon." It's very Elvish. IP: Logged |
