MUSIC ...

IN A WORD?

!!MOZART!!


Oh, my tastes vary ... considerably but I always come home to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.  Why?  Because he is the greatest musician of all time!

Mozart's music can set me aflight like nothing else can!  His music is incredible.  No one sounds like him.  My favortie pieces of his are:
 

*  Exsultate, jubilate
*  Requiem (which he supposedly wrote for his own funeral)
*  The Marriage of Figaro
*  German Dance No. 1 in D
*  Symphonies 39, 40 and 41 (his last)
*  And everything else he's written!!



I also love Swing Music with Django Reinhardt being my favorite.  Django can play a Swing Guitar like no one can!  You haven't heard swing until you've heard Django!  I also love Cab Calloway ... Heidi, Heidi Ho!  I do enjoy all of the Big Bands.  And I enjoy many of the new bands that are reproducing that sound (like Squirrel Nut Zippers).


Then there are the singers:

Females (to name a few):
*    Noirin Ni Riain
*    Doris Day
*    Ethel Merman
*    Kate Smith
*    Lena Horne
*    Judy Garland
*    Barbara Streisand
*    Bette Midler
Males (to name a few):
*    Bing Crosby
*    Andy Williams
*    Mario Lanza
*    Dennis Day
*    Frank Sinatra
*    Sammy Davis, Jr.
*    Helmut Lotti
*    Tom Hulce
(yes, Tom Hulce ... never heard his "Hunchback of Norte Dame"?)



I even love some country music ... Aaron Tippin is my favorite there and Dolly Parton.


And what music list would be complete without the Oldies but Goodies?
 

*    Lou Christie heads off the list
*    The Supremes
*    The Beatles (but I prefer their earlier works to the rest)
*    The Mamas and The Papas
Basically, all of it!


So you can see my music tastes vary ... but, as I said, I always come home to MOZART!
