I had to drop it senior year due to schedule conflicts and really missed it. Very cool that you sang Copland. I like his "Portrait of Lincoln" too. <BR/><BR/>Amelia~ You're probably not as ignorant as you think. Most people who grew up on Warner Bros. cartoons would be surprised how much classical music was employed in them, for example: The Rabbit of Seville. <BR/><BR/>Great to see so many like the same pieces of music or composers!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17700809709293636333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15015304.post-28909583373088900882007-07-12T13:16:00.000-05:002007-07-12T13:16:00.000-05:00Love the classics!

I too have a box of music that holds most of the choir pieces I sang in High School and the first year of college. <BR/>My absolute favorite? Hmmmm there's three. Verdi's "Three Sacred Songs", Benjamin Britten's "A Ceremony Of Carols" and Mozart's "Requiem". The last one I never sang in choir, but I love to listen to it.Jennifer McKenziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03613714863799177911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15015304.post-48997289433184581842007-07-12T07:53:00.000-05:002007-07-12T07:53:00.000-05:00Canon in D!
