Frownland SOPHIE FOREVER Join Date: Aug 2011 Location: East of the Southern North American West Posts: 35,541	I listened to all of my dad's CDs by the time I was 7 or 8 and he had a few classical comps. I listened to the Chopin and Mozart ones the most, Turkish March shreds. I also got pretty into exploring the classics from 10-12 when I was getting into composition where I got deep into Vivaldi and Bach. Even had a symphony play my homage to the Four Seasons. Frank Zappa got me into the more modern stuff with Varese name drops and The Perfect Stranger. __________________ Studies show that when a given norm is changed in the face of the unchanging, the remaining contradictions will parallel the truth. d e a f b o x
