Slammed

Things will be getting back to their regular strength around here shortly. Twas a busy, busy couple of weeks but I think I'm through the worst of it now...

I've been going through a bit of a classical love-in during the first third of this year, largely due to reading "The Rest In Noise" by Alex Ross (see my other site for a long review of this book).

Since I've never asked it before, what are some of your personal favorites in terms of classical music? Tell me about the works that devastate you and leave you gasping or reduce you to dust. Modern or older pieces, this one is a free-for-all.

As always, you're welcome to discuss whatever you want in here, but I wanted to announce another site I've started.

http://www.somethingexcellent.com/

As I state on the about page, I'm only going to write about things that I really love. It will be a free-for-all in terms of new and old material, books, music, etc. The articles will be longer and more in-depth in general, with commenting available on each.

Swing on by if you're in the mood.

What's Your Favorite Box Set?

It's been awhile since I started a real music-related topic around here, so I thought I'd fire it up again this week and ask people what their favorite box set is.

Feel free to talk about anything else as well.
