All of us, every single man, woman, and child on the face of the Earth were born with the same unalienable rights; to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And, if the governments of the world can't get that through their thick skulls, then, regime change will be necessary.

Friday Nooner!
Absolutely stunning music. One of my favorites for many years.
Samuel Barber
Adagio for Strings

You aren't kidding. This music brings out the deepest emotions of the soul. You cannot but listen to this music and realize that there is a soul, and it has a language that can't be conveyed in words.
Jewel -- Public radio from Temple (no commercials!) WRTI. 6 a.m to 6 p.m. ALL Classical. 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. ALL REAL Jazz, not this "Smooooth" Jazz Junk.
In your area it's WRTL 90.7 FM. Closer to mine switch over to 97.7.
OR go to the website www.wrti.org and you can have 24 hr STREAMING Classical or Jazz.
If you don't know about this station already you're going to love it. And right now they are just winding down their weeklong fund drive.
WCRB FM 99.5 in Boston, all classical all the time. And what a joy to have a classical station that pays attention to its listeners' wants instead of trying to foist "modern classical" atonal cat-torture crap on already hypertensive commuters.
We hear this gorgeous Adagio at least twice a day.
WRTI sounds liek your station, Revere, except the 12 hr split between Jazz and Classical. Heard this adagio a few days ago there. Saturday is often opera (not my cup of tea).
15 years or more ago the classical station was WFLN, also Public Broadcasting. WRTI was all Jazz. But someone bought WFLN, changed the format to an urban hip hop type and we thought it was gone forever. Couple months later WRTI bought WFLN's catalog, went to the 50-50 format AND hired all the DJ's that had been at FLN and knew their classical music.
No "modern classical" atonal cat-torture crap here.
I have WRTI punched in on my memory. As I very often work in the early morning hours, I listen to Jazz and then Classical at 6 am. Online, you can get Pandora Radio, Rhapsody, Itunes and my personal favorite, since it allows recording, is Radio Sure! RS! is a good little program that has about 15,000 radio stations. Using the search engine that it comes with, I put in Classical, and every classical station in the world will come up. Right now I have Kol HaMusica, which is an Israeli classical station. Loud and clear. RS! also allows you to record programs in mp3 format, so you can listen to it later. I just love this little program. It's also freeware, so there is no payment required.

Exactly. This one just leads you on and compels you higher and higher and then, suddenly, it's not there anymore.
I love this piece.

Beautiful!
One of my favorite symphonic pieces.
