          I like lots of Blood and Thunder, not overly keen on the plinky plinky stuff (Baroque?) but TBH I like lots of most types of music on different occasions.

            Hmmm. Difficult one as there are so many. Going to see Andre Rieu in manchester in April. Cant wait!

            Strauss' The Blue Danube, Ravel's Bolero, Shoshtakovich's Second Waltz etc.

            Probably go with Strauss' Blue Danube.

              WHS

              I like most stuff but the piece that makes all the hair stand up on the back of my neck is O Fortuna (I think thats what it's called) from Carmina Burana.
