How sexy is classical music?

Nobody ever cares about classical music. It seems you can't use it to get a girl. It goes even in a geek category, I guess. But I made an experiment, and I decided to play to my classmates the Chopin's Barcarolle. Guess what they all liked it, and one of the girls who I didn't think would ever look my direction, decided to go out with me. So, here is the question, why only my piano teacher hammers about practicing classical, and nobody else cares?

I love classical music and love Tchaikovsky and my first love was a Classical Music Cello player and one of the fewest females in our school to ever play that instrument...
 
Classical music is Heavenly and wonderful.... I also love classical music! :2up:

Sexy? in my opinion is not.

Sex and classical music is like.....I don't know...like water and oil.

Of course I can be wrong, it's only my opinion. :)
Agreed. Far too superficial a term to put on classical music but his idea for a classical music thread was wonderful!

I hear USMB had a beauty contest, skye. I did not see it but saw the link on google - I must assume that you won? Congratulations, Beauty!

"With his Symphonia Domestica, Strauss literally took the music “into the bedroom,” depicting the average family life behind closed doors. After introducing each family member with a distinct theme, and after the music depicts the act of putting the child to bed (“cradle song”) the symphony develops into a three-part adagio, which is meant to evoke a love scene between the husband and the wife."

There's a park in Vienna with a place where the Strauss family presented their works to the upper crust. It still exists and they present original Strauss waltzes there. My ex-wife came to Vienna and we actually danced the original version of the waltz to that music.

That is such a great story! Must have been very romantic. The history and the atmosphere very intoxicating.
