"...Thus grew the tale of Wonderland: Thus slowly one by one, it's quaint events were hammered out- and now the tale is done...the dream child moving through a land of wonders wild and new, In friendly chat with bird
or beast-and half believe it true..." -Lewis Carroll

Celebrating the Music I Love

So!

As the official throne Princess of Rachel-Land( teehee), I hereby deem the month of July as Music I Love Month! Although all the posts this month will not be music related, the majority of them will. Don't be surprised by the eccentricity of my musical tastes...as I've said many times before, I love pretty much all music.

I will start out this festive celebration of song by bringing to your attention my favorite classical composer, Ludwig Van Beethoven's Fifth Symphony. Teehee. Now, this rendition of the 5th is probably unlike any you've ever heard. And I absolutely LOVE it. I'm sure you music buffs have heard of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. I originally heard of them during the Christmas season for their rendition of Carol of the Bells. As I researched this phenomenal band, I was surprised, yet pleased to find that they not only played Christmas music, but classical and rock, as well. I've actually come to love their version of Beethoven's 5th: Requiem even more than Carol of the Bells. A feat indeed. Anywho, sit back and enjoy some classical music...with a twist!
