Crap. I meant no offence. And the original intent of the thread was for music and an explaination as to why it was important to you, not for classical only references. Heck, I lead off with The Verve, which is hardly classical. My apologies for the misunderstanding. My personal knowledge of GFR is extremely and sadly limited.

I didn't take offense to anything you said and was very suprised to see you felt you may have done so. Fear not, for you are one of the good ones. I was just looking for something elevating to add to the list and the Brightman/Bocelli duet popped into my mind. It's magnificent. My feelings won't be hurt by someone not liking GFR as much as I do, so rest easy KenzieB. |

The Moody Blues expressed our search for deeper meanings to our very existence through music. They seemed to find ways of asking the questions about what this is all about while never losing sight of the adventure that is life. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yco6eN5KIOY |

Yes AND Traffic. How good is that? I'm warming up my phono pre-amp as we speak, and then I'm digging up the old vinyl. Went to see live music this afternoon, a Valentines gift. Janina Fialkowski was performing. I learned two things: First, keep an open mind. When I saw the program had Mozart and Ravel, I thought, no way - too different. But if you take Mozart at his darkest (for Mozart, anyway) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXMEkzYjjuY plus Ravel at his brightest and most accessible (for me that is), it can actually work http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tw0Iotmp3Kk . I don't know about you, but when I close my eyes listening to the Mozart, I see an old silent movie with either a sad scene, or the Bad Guys being particularly nasty (go to 3:28 in the youtube clip for the Bad Guys). Second, the speakers on my computer, plus youtube sound quality, REALLY suck. Neil Young had it right, "live music is better" bumper stickers should be issued! |

When I was about sixteen I got my first real exposure to rock and roll music. (Of course I had heard it on the radio but paid it very little attention.) My main interests up until that time had been classical (mainly guitar) and jazz. I held an arrogantly superior attitude towards other such “lower†forms of music. (Me? Arrogant? Never! :~~ ) Anyway, in the summer of 1994, The Pink Floyd rolled into Toronto for a couple shows on their Division Bell tour. For a birthday present my friends took me. (Well, dragged, kicking and screaming, might be more apt.) Possibly it was the assorted psychotropic chemicals that I was inadvertedly taking via second-hand marijuana smoke. Or maybe it was the overwhelming spectacle of light and sound. I ended up with a far broader view of what constitutes good music. And, along the way, became one of David Gilmour’s life-long fans. This is what I mean, by the way, when I would like to know why I should listen to a selection. I seldom click random links. So, some of The Pink Floyd: Astronomy Domine 2006 Written and composed by Syd Barrett and featuring Richard Wright, both, sadly, now gone.

It's not that I wouldn't go, I've just never been to one or thought about It, Music when I was growing up was what was on the radio or played from an LP record(33 1/3rpm), About the only stuff I won't listen to are Hip Hop and Rap, Otherwise I'll listen to about anything, As well as mostly keep an open mind on food(I only dis liver, pineapple sherbert and bugs(other sherberts are ok though), My brother wouldn't touch Sherbert and He loved Liver, yuck!).

I've seen pink floyd in concert about 4 times {the wall} during the 80's and 90's, I'll name some of the favourites... Dark side of the moon album... Money - Us and them - From earlier work {possibly with Sid Barret who reports say went mad thinking he was a dog}... One of these days - {a great classical display of theatrical rock music}... Nick mason's house was a stones throw from my house {sometimes we used to hang around for a glimpse maybe an autograph}... |
