Funny you should bring this up. I was wondering the same thing. I think I recognize it as either Beethoven or Felix Mendelssohn. I’ll keep listening. I’ve always loved that piece.
To: Mr. Mojo; murron
" ....... Beethovens 6th symphony.
......... Yep, first movement."That reminds me ....
Q: What did the music teacher find on the piano stool?
A: Beethoven's Last Movement.

Fun Fact: If you ever want to add a Super-DUPER Charge to your day, to your energy levels, I advise you to listen to another Beethoven favorite of mine; The Emperor. Concerto No. 5.
It’s dizzy with joy and drunk with power.
It’s meant to be played LOUDLY.
(According to me).

Beethoven’s best work IMO: the Pastoral Symphony No 6. This work was my introduction to classical music.
To my chagrin, I suffer all manner of low-brow cultural tastes these days. Good to be reminded of this....I’m playing it in the background right now.
To: murron
Pastoral Symphony, Ludwig Von. It appeared on a Simpsons episode. That much I remember. I’ll leave it to someone else to name that episode.
To: Mr. Mojo
Also featured in Soylent Green.

I love to play classical on the piano; it’s so interesting and challenging. But I do NOT like to just sit and listen to it. Rock ‘n’ roll for that.
