Might do that myself chaps. If there's owt for nowt, i'll have two.

I've just been on the Freecycle website that some suggested in one of the other topics and it's fantastic. Found out that there's a group here so I thought i'd sign up. What a fab idea and takes recycling to a different level.

To try, type freecycle into your search engine and up it pops. There seems to be loads of groups all over the country.

barber:adagio for strings,and
khachaturian:adagio from spartacus,defo played at top wack...ohh and karen carpenter.

Karen Carpenter, any time of day or night. I have the Carpenter's Story on video and have just about worn it out (worse than Sound of Music) and also the boxed set of all the Carpenter's CDs. I just love that girl's voice.

Oh, and don't forget Elgar's Cello Concerto played by Jacqueline du Pres.

Going back to Mozart - Morrison's celebrated his birthday today (OK - yesterday, as it's 1.25am) by playing his music all day in every one of their stores. Great idea and very well received by the shoppers, so I hear.

I am delighted to have had so many replies on this thread. To follow a few points
The free cds in the Telegaph are both Saturday and Sunday. I'm not sure whether to get them as inevitably they will be the most popular works, probably selected movements and I probably have some versions of these already
For those who want to hear more classical music there is of course Classic fm but you may not know of Lyric fm on the satellite channel 915 and even BBC Radio 3 has some quoite decent stuff on at night.
Classic fm also has independent stations in Australia, South Africa and I think Canada too, all available by the wounders of the Internet.
From the USA there is a station WCPE (internet)which has 24/7 classics with full listing
Lastly the contender for the most popular piece by Mozart is his Clarinet Concerto, if you don't know that one you must put that right and it's the whole work not just the slow movement.
Nuff said for now, I'll be watching this one.

Just put in the CD to listen whilst I browse the site. Unfortunately I have to go and watch the football in a minute - originally from Cheltenham and my first music teacher lived about 50 yards from the ground - memories!

Chantal, thanks for the detailed list, that was a great help. Mrs went through my library this morning and made a list of all the mozart stuff theat we have on any disk big or small and I reckoned we couldn't have missed much but when we saw your list she was motivated to go shopping, the local newsagentts had a pile of Telegraphs at 1.00 pm so there should be no problem to buy a copy even now. We hadn't got the Divertimento which is nice. Looking forward to tomorrow's last 3 items which we lack. If you don't have the clarinet concerto in full I recommend that you make good that deficiency some time.
Having bought the paper the garden supplement is worth the money for Sarah Raven's list of winter salading

Shakespeare said "If music be the food of love, play on" It seems we have both music and food now, not sure about the last bit but you are all lovely people.

For those who don;t know the words, try the following to the strain's of the 4th. Horn Cincerto. It will never be the same again

Quote:
To the tune of Mozart Concerto K.495, movement III
I once had a whim and I had to obey it,
To buy a French horn in a second-hand shop.
I polished it up and I started to play it,
In spite of the neighbours who begged me to stop.

To sound my horn,
I had to develop my embouchure.
I found my horn,
Was a bit of a devil to play.
So artfully wound,
To give you a sound,
A beautiful sound,
So rich and round.

Oh the hours I had to spend,
Before I mastered it in the end.

But that was yesterday.
And just today,
I looked in the usual place.
There was the case,
But the horn itself was missing!

Oh where can it have gone?
Haven't you, hasn't anyone seen my horn?
Oh where can it have gone?
What a blow, now I know,
I'm unable to play my Allegro.

Who swiped that horn?
I bet you a quid somebody did.
Knowing I found a concerto,
And wanted to play it,
Afraid of my talent at playing the horn.
For early today to my utter dismay,
It had vanished away like the dew in the morn.

I've lost that horn!
I know I was using it yesterday.
I've lost that horn, lost that horn,
Found that horn gorn.

There's not much hope of getting it back,
Though I'd willingly pay a reward.

I know some hearty folk,
Whose party joke's pretending to hunt with the Quorn.
Gone away, gone away.
Was it one of them who took it away?
Will you kindly return that horn?
Where is the devil who pinched my horn?
I shall tell the police!

I want that French horn back.

I miss its music more and more and more.
Without that horn I'm feeling sad and so forelorn.

I found a concerto and wanted to play it,
Displaying my talent at playing the horn.
But early today to my utter dismay,
It had totally vanished away.
I practised the horn and I wanted to play it,
But somebody took it away!
I practised the horn and was longing to play it,
But somebody took it away!

My neighbour's asleep in his bed,
I'll soon make him wish he were dead,
I'll take up the tuba instead - WAA WAA !
