Lately, I've been digging out his Also Sprach Zarathustra CD (which you probably remember from the movie 2001) and cranking that fucker right up. The speakers are so clean. It starts off silent, and a low deep rumble rises slowly in the background. You don't really notice that rumble unless you have the volume way up there. And then the horn comes in, real clean. And then the whole orchestra. BA-DUM! And the paint starts falling off the ceiling, but it's just amazing. And then it gets quiet again and repeats.

The kids loved it the first couple times I played that. I may need to ease off on the frequency so I don't ruin it.

I just listened to that for like the thousandth time. That first crescendo still gives me chills.

Awesome piece of music.
