I will post my list of Washington DC radio station DC 101 favorites around 2001 to 2002.  I recorded them to cassette tape first off the air but I eventually replaced them with legitimate iTunes downloads and used CD purchases.  

I have maybe 4 to 8 CDs worth of faves: Linkin Park, 311, Bush, Offspring, Rage Against the Machine, Three Doors Down, Three Days Grace, Evanensce, Nine Inch Nails, Puddle of Mud, the list goes on, but I will do it later.
Children of bodom-playing vivaldi. I first heard this yesterday-along with some other metal band playing cellos. I love it. Who knew? Smile

That sounds like the interval act in last year's Eurovision Song Contest, Apocalyptica (I had to look them up Big Grin ). I recently saw a CD review of Folk Dance Ensemble Vila performing Serbian music. Maybe I could put it on my birthday present ideas list to get me into the spirit for this year's contest in Belgrade.

Meanwhile I'm listening to the 'Infernal Dance' from Stravinsky's Firebird.


That's it! Apocalyptica. I like the ( distortion) cellos.
I am learning the cello right now- I am sounding rather distorted at the moment also.  Smile
A heavy metal lover at the music store where I work suggested that I listen to children of bodom and Apocalyptica as I haven't listened to metal before. Not a big fan of screaming but willing to keep an open mind and ears. Apparantly there is 'light' metal too.  Smile

I don't know much at all about the Eurovision Song contest. When is it?

Right now I am listening to a CD of Alvin and the chipmunks 'singing'
(Just returned from the new movie)
Smile

This year it's on Saturday 24 May.

Meanwhile I'm listening to the Ballet Music from Act 3 of Verdi's Macbeth.


Thanks Aeolienne Smile

I am listening to Yo-Yo Ma -Bach cello suites.

GuessWho Wrote:
I'm always confusing Yo-Yo Ma with Yo Ma-Ma


Yo Ma-Ma? is this a person?

in keeping with all this double name business-one of my favorite pianists is Lang Lang. Later I may listen to/watch a DVD of one of his concerts. ( the one where he plays a duet with his father)
