Just (re)listened to Beethoven's 9th Symphony and once again, I'm reminded about how much I actually love it, especially under the baton of Herbert von Karajan and the Berlin Philharmonic. I think Beethoven is steadily becoming one of my favourite composers though I didn't like him that much before. Same with Mozart whose rather lightish musical fare always annoyed me in the past but now I think his music (his operas in particular) is absolutely charming. *shrugs*

I am still rather annoyed with my book but alas, what can I bloody do?

Continuing on music matters, my mum made me stare at her in utter disbelief the other day when she confused Ravel's Bolero with Pachelbel's Canon in D (both of which sound nothing alike as well as being written like 400 years apart)...*raises brow*

Then I made her listen to Bolero again as a result XDDD
