    Switch yourself from left brain to right brain: count down backwards from 100 by threes, and the music will leave you alone.

        I think I'll just put up with the music, Susan

          I find when I'm working at home, that a tune will creep into my head and I just cannot get rid of it. Currently it's the second movement of "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik" which I like - but not that much! Any suggestions for a cure?

          Not that I know of any although Susan's suggestion sounds interesting. The 'Ob La Di' tune is still going around my head today, oh well, 'life goes on...' oh, no, there it is again! Drat!

            what a superb description of the sheer momentum behind this movement

              Beethoven: the fourth movement of the 4th symphony (also the 6th symphony and the finale of the Ninth - I know it is already mentioned here)

                  Yes I forgot this delightful work! A joy from start to finish - perfect for this lovely spring morning.

                    Last night it was Solti and the Chicago Symphony playing Tchaikowsky's 4th. Wonderful music!

                      Yes - hardly the happiest music, but still my favourite Tchaikovsky symphony, certainly wonderful!
