Q: What's brown and found on a piano bench?
A: Beethoven's Last Movement.
CAPTION
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.
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.
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.

Isn’t it nice to hear real music as opposed to what passes for it these days.
My classical music education came entirely from Buggs Bunny...
Beethoven’s Sixth, also known as the Pastorale.
Any day where the commercial does not feature some horrid piece of rap music is a good day.
Given the post office’s service these days, it should probably be ‘another one bites the dust’
