Beethoven: Symphony No. 7 - Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra & Iván Fischer

I totally agree. I don't listen to Beethoven all the time. I try to reserve the different pieces of music for different times. Helps me process. y/w, anytime.

Understand completely! My musical tastes are pretty eclectic. I'm not much into the last 10 years or so of what the kids listen to, but I can even enjoy some of that while I'm driving one of my grandkids somewhere. I prefer classical, jazz and blues, but if people really pay attention, they would know what mood I'm in by what is playing. If it's Rammstein, Nine Inch Nails or anything with a heavy beat, better be really necessary. That's my warning music.

I listen to classic rock and a handful of bands from the 80's and 90's while driving. I reserve the classical music for quiet time when I need to balance. I am totally unable to listen to classical music while driving. The combination of the road and most of the soothing melodies in classical music put me into dream land!

I completely agree with the classical while driving. My only exception is when I am traveling with a certain few friends who also like classical. I don't mind it as background music while we talk.
