Personally, I am fond of Mozart and Beethoven, but I also really like Tchaikovsky.

Anyone cultured and refined like that?

I'm not refined (I am, right now, being a complete slob) but I do like classical music. Liszt - okyeshe'sRomanticnotClassicalbutwhogivesafuckImeanreally - is my personal favourite, but I also like Debussy. Beethoven is the best, however.

Beethoven is the chief homeboy of classical music!

Wagner - hate the man, love the music.

Vinter wrote some beautiful horn music.

Stravinsky, the only tolerable atonal composer. Oh, Rite of Spring!

And then Mahler, of course.

Has anybody heard any of the works of Ockeghem or Des Prez?

They were really early composers, I'm curious as to what they're like.

Yeah, I've heard them. Went over them in second semester music history. Not bad stuff. I don't remember too clearly, but I believe that I preferred Des Prez.

Yah I think I'm the only construction worker in town who goes to the symphony on a regular basis.

I think Wagner's stuff is pretty sexy, but I don't consider myself to be a fan of classical music.

Yah, I'm probably the only Non-Music major college student that regularly listens to Mozart and Tchaikovsky.
