To be short, IMO music principally is a emotional thing, with the use to be, education etc...., we can progress to new tendences, i.e. it is normally difficult that someone who don't knows very much music, like Sch?nberg (I've said Sch?nberg as an extreme). I know many people who was interested for italian opera and finally was interested on Wagner too. This is not my case, I was interested on Wagner when I was 15, and after I liked the other styles, my actual preferences are more for the North European Styles (Wagner, Mozart, R. Strauss, Britten....). On my case I like the voices, normally is quite difficult to follow the words of an opera, I can understand something on Italian or even a few things in German, but it helps the projection of the words on a Screen. For me Wagner is not heavy, his operas are long, but no more than some Mozart's or Handel's ones, when you start to be introduced in his musical and philosophical World is really interesting and (for me) passionating, but Mozart too and many others. Thank you to look at my website, this is a lot of work, and it is very difficult to find employees that they have the knowledge and the motivation to describe and put the correct information for every CD/DVD. Thanks again Len, of course we can chat more about music, but maybe offline..., our photography friends will be not happy if we have too long musical discussions.

CD Hi Luis, I got involved browsing your web sites. It's very impressive. What a great business to be in. You really are involved with music. I enjoy classical music very much but not so much opera. I think because I don't understand the words. I would think that someone like you that speaks Spanish would even understand the Italian operas. I'm very surprised at your interest in Wagner. Do you speak German? I always considered Wagner's music a little heavy. Maybe I'm wrong. Good luck in your business. We must talk about this some more.
