I still enjoy Tchaikovsky, Beethoven, Mozart, Verdi etc but ........

..... these days my tastes are more for Baroque and Early music BUT, and an important BUT, with recordings played at random as per music server. 70 minutes of the one disc e.g. Gregorian chant, would drive me even nuttier than I am now, but spliced in with other early music it is a delight to listen to. I'm finding the lute and harpsichord music particularly appealing listened to in this fashion. I used to love organ music and, although it still appeals, it is not something I seek out.

We have music loving friends who visit every few weeks for av A/V night and we rotate though opera and other genre but that is about the extent of music on the main A/V system as my wife is not as keen on some of the less common classics - hence the headphones. The music from the server is piped around 5 rooms in the house and is easily controlled by an iPad anywhere now although that did require some wireless repeaters.

But I digress.

What can be more subjective than music? It reflects our personal tastes and preferences.
