Hi Sue,
This is very odd, we share excatcly same taste in music.
Except for some music by Elgar, Stravinsky, my music ranges also from 16th
trough 17th. and 18th century music.
My favourite composer is Haendel, i just love his music sooo much!!!!

I'm with Dianne on this one, although my "opera wall" doesn't come with a
set of rude neighbors! ;-D
I just plain don't like most 19th century music (or a fair amount of 20th
century music). I don't have much appreciation for any book or movie or
art
form that has a lot of over-the-top drama in it. Since I got out of
adolescence, I've also not been much of a fan of musicals (liked them as a
kid just fine, and there are a few I enjoy now, but it's not something
I'll
normally spend money on <shrugs>).
I adore music from the Renaissance and Baroqe periods, though, and Mozart
(does he count as Baroqe or Romantic?). The local university's in the
middle of working on a production of _Marriage of Figaro_, and I'm going
to
see that. ;o)
--Sue, who's musical prefernces pick up again in the 1960s, with
exceptions
for composers like Aaron Copeland.....
