Rhythm is the driving force behind Carl Orff's Carmina Burana. Whether loud and bombastic or sorrowful and gut-wrenching, this work is intensely dramatic. The musical setting of twenty-five poems is sung in medieval Latin and German.

4. Erich Kunzel/ Cincinnati Pops Orchestra/ Kiev Symphony Orchestra
Tchaikovsky: 1812 Overture

I like catatonia's space ballad...it has that kind of silly/spacerock charm to it.

I don't think i'll ever get an sacd player though...since most of the music I like is likely never to be released in the format.

How about jazz? I'm a complete jazz newbie and would like to get my foot wet there.

I haven't gotten anything yet. I've been indecisive, and poor. I'm going to do a bit more research before I get anything.

Poor yes, after spending on all that equipment! Well, not really that poor, but I'm saving up after splurging big time on those puppies. BTW, let me know how those SACDs you ordered sound.
