I'm going to go hide now before I make everybody even more peed-off at me.

and hey, I certainly want to talk about classical composers like Arthur Honegger, Darius Milhaud, and Dmitri Shostakovich who all composed film scores, as well as powerhouse concert works.

and you never know, we may get someone hooked on classical music.

I wonder if PeterK would allow for short mp3s of classical works, like the CDs that are reviewed.

- "Real World" forum - Good in concept, tough to execute

- Classical forum - I would really enjoy said forum and hence think it is a good idea

- "Classical" or "Orchestral/symphonic, etc." - I think calling it 'classical' may be slightly misleading, but as long as people know what it means when they post, I don't see it as a big issue

- Rap - Yes, a lot of it is garbled muttering. No, very little of it does actually qualify (IMHO) as music.

- Political Chatter - I'm not American, but I'll gladly argue with anyone about Canadian politics--just not here. This is where I come to talk about music, not to get all riled up.
