> Me? I like Beethoven's 9th, Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue, Grieg's In the Hall of the Mountain King, Mozart's 25th, Aaron Copland's Rodeo, Bach's Jesu Joy of Man's desiring, Wagner's Ride of the Valkyries... and lots more. Do any of you have any pieces of music you particurally like? What do you like to listen to?


All of the above. Add Arnold's Dances (Scottish, Irish, English), Bach's Wachtet Auf, all of the Brandenburgs, anything by vivaldi (but especially the 4 seasons and his lute works), anything ever composed and/or played by any member of Shadowfax, including all the Shadowfax recordings, Chuck Greenberg's "From a Blue Planet" (the entire CD) and Armen Chakmakian's "Ceremonies" (again the entire CD), anything by Will Ackerman, Alex DiGrassi, Nightnoise, and George Winston.

That's just the extremely short list. I have over 300 Cd's and countless mp3's of music that I can't find on CD, spanning just about every genre except country, rap, and heavy/acid/punk/hard/whatever-the-buzzword-is-this-week rock and that house/rave/industrial garbage.


, and I listen to them all as regularly as is possible with a collection that large ;)
