Music from 1300 to the present but generally described as 'serious' music as opposed to Pop.
Ian:
This is rather good - keep the sound turned up!
Christmas Food Court Flash Mob, Hallelujah Chorus - Must See!

If you're a Sky subscriber then Sky Arts 2 is worth catching. It's been running televised versions of the Royal Ballet company and the English national Ballet performing the Tchaikovsky ballets over the past few months. Although even a big screen TV can't replicate the 'feel' of actually sitting in a big theatre to see a ballet live, the reality is that it's an impossibility for most these days, since the costs of mounting a full scale ballet are becoming prohibitive outside of London.

I love this! I'm just getting in to the genius of Wagner, so powerful!

It's superb. The Meistersingers overture is also a wonderful piece. Often thought he ought to have been writing for Hollywood, had he been born fifty years later :-))
