23. Classical? Count me in!
Thu May 9, 2013, 05:56 PM
May 2013

But then I have a BA in Music Education and sing in a local Chorale and used to play in a local ordhestra. Problem with classical music is only public radio stations play it because it is not commercial enough to provide any other way.

As for purchasing classical music. I often buy some work that I catch on the radio and have been known to stay in the car until a piece ends to find out what it is, which can take a little time since some works are long.

I detest Country, not too fond of current rock, but do also enjoy standards like Gershwin, Cole Porter, etc. Also Broadway musicals.

And I am a proud liberal Democrat!
