What I found most relatable, is how when we are little kids, whatever is 'forbidden' is what we want to do. My parents wouldn't have been able to make me listen to Beethoven! Although I would enjoy it now.

Too cheesy or something. You have provided the exception. This was wonderful thanks for sharing. It was sort of the Bolero-ization of Ode to Joy. Lovely piece of music. <br /><br />I read someplace that even though Beethoven could not hear the Ninth, he was supremely good at conducting it because he could experience it through visual cues and vibrations. It was speculated by the author that Beethoven actually experienced the music on a much higher plane than us unfortunate folks who could only hear it!

I also understand the need to take a break. I've been more quiet than usual the past few months because so much is going on with the family -- illnesses, reunions and the like -- and professionally -- working on book proposals. Sometimes life does intervene. But please know that there are many of us who look for and read your posts with great interest and pleasure. And, in the meantime, thanks for the musical video!
