I actually do this. Once a week, for 10 minutes I listen to free form Jazz. I have been doing this for year with different music. My hope is to eventually like it. So far, not so much. Two years ago I started listening to overtures. I always liked the William Tell Overture, but couldn’t listen to any other overtures. They made me hate myself. After a while I came to like them, so much so that I started listening to classical music.

It's funny, the Overture was originally intended to be 'background music', as the audience came in and got seated.

Now, many of those overtures are well respected stand alone pieces.
