I’m listening to Bach’s Brandenburg Concertos and thinking how they bring Fall to mind. Maybe it is the brass horns, but I just picture chilly mornings, crisp leaves, brilliant sunny afternoons and then smell of apples when I listen to them.
After that joyous music, I tried listening to Bruckner’s Symphony No. 5 which I usually enjoy (it sounds like Winter to me – all white snow and silver trees), but today it is just bugging me. So, back to Bach.

On the subject of classical music, I read in the paper the other day that they've found a piece of new music from mozart. He's writing from the dead! heh

Bach's the best. The Goldberg Variations, played by Glenn Gould and recorded just before he died, are my favorite.

Thanks for mentioning the Goldberg Variations. I bought them (Glenn Gould's work) on Amazon and they are amazing!
