Do you like classical music?

I am not a real big classical fan but will listen to it on the radio sometimes .

I can't say I would listen to it on my own time, but I do like some peices when they are played in school or something. I guess I don't like Classical Music that much because I wasn't really exposed to it like most kids were in music class. In elementry school we only learned about Beethoven for like 2 weeks and then moved on. The teacher never taught us anything else about an other composers or the music at all. My parents never listened to it. Last year in music class(7th grade) we learned about acient music played by eygptians and stuff, nothing about classical. That's the same with sixth grade. Now, I doubt I will ever have another music class agian because we get to pick our own specials and I don't like music as much as the other specials. So, I don't think I'll ever get to into it.

My husband has edited several books on classical music (an opera guide etc). He plays the piano and has about 2000 old LPs but now we are having about the same numbers in CDs as well

I love classical as well but with someone like him you cannot keep up -so I mostly listen to what he puts on.

My favorite composers are Ravel, Satie, Chopin, Benjamin Britten, Respighi. I love Mozart operas and most of the older music like Scarlatti.

When you get to college, take a Music Appreciation elective - you are NOT to old to learn, and it can add a lot to your life!

I like classical music, and listen to it, largely as background noise anymore. I find most non-instrumental music too distracting to listen to. With classical music, you can just 'feel' its presence in the room.

Having said that, I do not enjoy live performances of any sort, really. Plays, musicals, performances, just too long and not enough activity for me.
