Symphony 2013

Not that those looking for plans on how to build a rocket ship out of 2X4s care, but my 2013 Symphony extravaganza is going swimmingly! I'm just over one third of the way done (currently listening to Tchaikovsky's 4th). I stripped out a bunch from the original list that weren't proper symphonies... perhaps I'll do a Symphonic Poem spree one day, though the next type will probably be concertos. I do so loves me a good piano or violin concerto. I'd love me a good accordion concerto but thems are rare birds. Electric guitar concerto, not so rare thanks to Yngwie. Also, I thought I liked the symphonies of Brahms more than I do, though I still like most of his first. And #9 by Schubert? I keep forgetting how killer that beast actually is. Now that I've got that out of my system, you may continue on with some other more-frequently-updated site.
