Feels like going back in time...

Used to be a hardcore member of one of two music forums like this in the long-distant past. I didn't know such forums still existed.

Anyway, I've arrived here because I need to talk music - the kind that I personally like, which I can't really do with my nearest and dearest. They like musicals. I do not like musicals. I listen to rock, and they don't. I don't know how I ended up in the midst of them. There is absolutely no history of rock afficionados in my family. Ever. I must be some sort of genetic aberration. Either that or I was a groupie in my past life (although I have been squeaky-clean in my present existence, sadly).

Anyway, hello to everyone on here .. or something. Did I mention that I like rock music? Alternative rock, generally, whatever that means. I like classical music too, and listening to old pop hits from the 80s and 90s which remind me of my all-too prim youth.

EDIT: Actually I see that I AM classed as a groupie on here. Spooky!

Hi! So you like classical music, how do you feel about Bach?

Jade Green · 02-20-2021, 02:05 PM

Well, you can't diss one of the greatest music geniuses of all time. I like Bach's music. Especially his Violin Concerto in A Minor. I used to play the violin part in that, and a piano accompaniment as well (not at the same time obviously). Sadly I've not played violin or piano in many years now.

awesome, the violin concertos are among my favourites of his work

Hey and welcome to the forums!

I can relate to you on the difference of music taste in my family. I like most of what my family likes, but there are a few genres and decades of the distant past that they don't connect with. As far as alternative rock and classical go, I really enjoy The Cardigans and Chopin

Enjoy your stay here on the forums and hopefully you'll meet a ton of friends to enthuse with over music!
