Ooo, I don't want to keep taking this thread further off course but, on the subject of classical music, I love Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Chopin, Vivaldi, Handel, Brahms, Grieg, Debussy, Strauss, Prokofiev, Stravinsky, Ravel...not necessarily in that order and I'm probably missing several in that list. I don't like all their works but there's at least 1-2 pieces I love from each composer, some several compositions at least. Mahler I'm not so familiar with but I have seen Bride of the Wind, a somewhat fictional movie about his wife, Alma, whom he married towards the end of his life and who was a composer in her own right. Beautiful movie. I too have a tough time getting into Wagner...as far as The Ring is concerned, the Bugs Bunny spoof is the only version I can get into. Okay, I know that's bad of me. 😉 But I love Grieg's Peer Gynt, Mozart's Figaro, Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker and Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf. If that helps make up for my Wagner transgression. 😉

Okay, I'm done talking classical now. Sorry everyone. Back to rock for me.
