Ok, fellow musical knights, art thou ready to joust? Here are some slections that Wild Bill didn't mention (including some that he *should* have included), numbered by alpha order (I'll let you decide on the proper order -- frankly, I can't, by and large, think of a fair order myself!): 1) BEETHOVEN: (The "Ode to Joy" from) Symphony #9 2) BRAHMS: Academic Festival overture ... Gaudeamus igitur! 3) DEBUSSY: "Claire de Lune" (did I get the speeling right?) ... my mother (fondly) recalls "The Frenchman's Cove," with Joan Fontaine and Arturo de Cordoba) 4) DUKAS: Sorcerer's Apprentice ... remember "Fantasia"? No, you probably don't! 5) GRIEG: Piano Concerto ... pick any movement, they're all burned into my head 6) MOZART: Eine Kleine Nacht Musik 7) RAVEL: Bolero ... come on, WJL, don't you realize what Bo did to America? 8) SAINT-SAENS: Dance Macabre 9) J.P. SOUSA: Stars and Stripes Forever ... and ever, Amen. Last, but certainly not least, even rock fans know 10) VERDI: "La donna e mobile" From the classical confines of Yeshiva University, I remain...
