Maybe the best invention ever.

Listening to string quartets today. Three of ‘em. By Schubert.  Makes me think. About how I’ve evolved. When I was a kid, my favorite music was bombastic symphonies. Beethoven. Tchaikovsky. Now I like more peaceful and sublime music. String quartets. Especially adagio movements. I could listen all day, all night.  So relaxing. So tranquil. My collection includes virtually all of Haydn’s string quartets. Seventy-some.  Happy music. Joyful.  Recorded music. Maybe the best invention ever. –Jim Broede
