The Beethoven Experience

Oh wow, just wow. The BBC will be offering free downloads of Beethoven's nine symphonies.

When I was learning piano, pretty much every piece I chose as part of my repertoire for the exams was by Beethoven - I detested Mozart and only had minor infatuations with the other composers. I guess the closest most apt description of my afflication was by a super talented friend who stated that I just liked 'dramatic music', which is true enough, and makes me predisposed to secretly enjoying all sorts of crappy scores in pre-battle scenes of cheesy films.

Mmm.. Cheesymite scrolls. I sure hope I can get Vegemite in America.
