Classical Music ping.

I've done this art thread, but since I added something about "classical" music of the time (i.e. Stravinsky), I thought I'd expand the pings to music in case you guys want to chime in.

[Argh]

Stravinsky is supposed to have said that Vivaldi composed the same concerto 550 times. Hah! Comment not on the mote in thy neighbour's eye, Igor, but look to the mote in thine own, or whatever. Stravinsky's post-Rite music contains a hell of a lot of passages where he seems to be re-composing The Rite of Spring. As much as I love The Rite, I find this a little tiresome.
