Do you like Opera?

Classical music? You mean like Lynard Skynard?
(perverted the Bad Company line I heard on the trailer)

I'm kidding. I do like to listen to classical music, but I know f*ck-all about composers and titles and whatnot. I know what I like, and I could hum it for you, but I don't think it would work typed out.

I did catch some names I remember, though, in you guys' posts... Vivaldi (he did The Four Seasons, yes? Not the band, o' course ), and Beethoven, and Mozart. But most of what I know about the last two I got from Immoral Beloved and Amadeus.

So what am I getting at? I'm not sure. I've completely lost all sense of what I wanted to say when I started posting.

But I do like classical music, for real.

I like it, though I don't know what's what anymore. I played violin for four years.

That's exactly, absolutely, totally, 100% my feeling on the subject, too. I couldn't put it into words, though. Gracias.

I like a few of the Psalms, too, if that's worth anything.

I could not tell the difference between the 4 tenors and bach

Here's a few of the most widely-recognized classics.

Beethoven - Flight of the Bumble Bee
Beethoven - Ode to Joy
Bach - Sleepers Awake
Bach - Pachebel Canon
Mozart - Fantasia in D Minor
Mozart - Moonlight Sonata
Mozart - Marriage of Figaro

Most of these should sound familiar. In fact, you may be sick of a few of them already.
