Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.

what for?Originally posted by Beef Oven! View Post
For what purpose? or activity?
anyway , Like the idea of
a) todays list
b). allowing Bach and Beethoven as given.
personally, I would allow Brahms as a Given, so that LVB could have the weekends off, but thats just me.
Now, who wrote "Sailing", I wonder..............I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

Put it down to Friday fatigue, and forgive yourself.
We'll just pop it in the memory banks.....

JS Bach
Schubert
Wagner
Verdi
Sibelius
Stravinsky
Shostakovich
Messiaen
There's a rather surprising absence of Mozart from these lists?Comment

To save me actually thinking about it, this is the list in order of number of CDs in my collection:
Bach
Beethoven
Schubert
Mozart
Wagner
Haydn
Brahms
Schumann
Rather predictable, Lieder-biassed and Teutonic and it might change if I pondered a while but I would be reluctant to lose any of those.Comment

OK it's a 'Baker's Eight'... ! Sue me, saly
PS Finzi and Howells are on the subs' bench... with a no doubt slightly bemused Handel and a very amused Poulenc
