Au contraire, Mylittlesunshyne!

[Mylittlesunshyne]

Ohh Dear I am terribly sorry! You see, I just got done taking a shower, and didn't have my glasess on, and thought he was talking about well... yeah

[firmbeliever]

Nothing to contribute to the classical music theme.

See you later.

I own one. I give lecture/demonstrations to groups on topics concerning early music, among other things.

I too can play Mozart's Rondo Alla Turca, Mylittlesunshyne. Can you play the whole sonata from which is comes?

There may be someone who would post why they did not like classical music and have a good argument why, but you negated that. A shame too, as a good discussion involves all sides.

But to classical music - of all the eras, I prefer the Classical and Romantic eras. I also enjoy listening to Medieval, Renaissance, and 20th Century Classical eras. No Baroque for me. Favorite artists include Haydn, Bach, Chopin, Liszt, Stravinsky, Mendelssohn, and Hector Berlioz. I just enjoy listening.

One of my favorite contempory persons is Peter Schickele - loved his program on Public Radio - he just did not compose but he also directed, educated and is a great parodist.

I used to love to listen to Peter Schickele! I have been to a few of his performances. Always entertaining and educational.

Mylittlesunshyne, if you ever get a chance to listen to him, you should do so. I think you will enjoy him. Here is a link to his website so you can get an idea of what he is all about.
The Peter Schickele/P.D.Q. Bach Web Site

Peter Schickele has a new release out. P.D.Q. Bach CD 7. I always wished one could get copies of his radio programs, but copyrights laws prevail.

I will definitely, I like other types of music, but classical music doesent even involve words! That's why I think t's most expressive.

I don't think so, I believe only that part, you sound very gifted. I'm only late intermediate n the piano, I started playing when I was about 10 or 11, and I'm 13 now, So I think I'm makign good progress.

Opera, Oratorio, Mass, Cantata, Lieder... all with words. Even the odd symphony - Beethoven, Mahler, I'm not getting at you - you are 13... loads more stuff to listen to. Explore and enjoy.

[Mylittlesunshyne]

Umm... This page is about classical music, I never said I didn't like other types of music. And why does it make a difference that I'm 13? I have 4 gigs of music on my computer... I've explored a lot. I'm not saying I've mastered usic or anything...

So what do you mean by "classical " music.

[Mylittlesunshyne]

Anything which falls under the category of classical music. Such as beethoven, mozart chopin bartok, bach etc...

[RubyPitbull]

Mylittlesunshyne, all the music that bindeweede listed IS considered classical music.

Bows deeply to Ruby - you took the words right out of my mouth.
