Why is that? Do we just not understand or are our ears simply not tuned for classical music? One thing we are sure of – classical music is anything but quiet and boring. Why not try it! Listen to the 4th set of Beethoven’s 9th symphony, turn the volume all the way up and see for yourself what happens when the choir belts out “so you, brothers, should run your course, joyfully, like a conquering hero…” it’s an unparalleled EARgasm, Classical music rocks!

Then there’s Beethoven who went deaf and still managed to continue composing. Imagine an artist who goes blind yet still paints sensational works of art?
