Schubert!!

I'm not much of a fan of classical music, but I think Schubert rocks! This song, Fantasy for Violin and Piano in C major, D.934, is a bit long at 24 minutes, but worth it.

It is the first track from this CD: Schubert Sonatas (Sonatinas) for Violin and Piano , and in my-ever-humble-opinion, easily the best track. (The other songs are to "formulaic" for me.) If you enjoy classical music, the Naxos website, (http://www.naxos.com/) is certainly worth a visit.

Some trivia: the violinist is named Dong-Suk, which would certainly be a challenging name to grow up with here in the USA!

Some bonus trivia: my fiance's nick-name is "Dong", which in her language means "Precious", which she most certainly is!!
