Beethoven is OK with me but I'm not that big a fan of playing baroque stuff like Bach - it often gets boring and repetitive. I'm working towards this exam called ARSM (between Grade 8 and Diploma) where I need a half-hour recital program. I need some baroque stuff so I chose Scarlatti since I feel like I can do more with it.
No I haven't heard of a wheel harp. I googled it and it looks very cool .
Random trivia: Beethoven's Tempest Sonata (I've played it before) is the inspiration for the Flintstones Theme Tune . No kidding.
What about Hans Zimmer? Also: Have you watched Interstellar?
I've been playing a bunch of music by Ludovico Einaudi recently, and most noteably a peice by him called "Nefeli" Apparently its greek for "Cloud" but it more or less sounds like shadows to me.
I'll look that up. Is it a film or something?
I've heard of Hans Zimmer - he makes pretty good music. And yes, I have watched Interstellar. The music is great, and it's one of the most scientifically-accurate space films I've seen in a while.
Maybe those grey clouds that show iminent rain ? Perhaps you should look up the piece and listen to recordings - a piece can sound very different when played slower or faster. A while ago I learned Chopin's Etude in C# Minor Op10 No4 (look it up I dare you... ), and when playing it at slow practice tempo (about 1/4 speed), it sounds rather creepy. But at full speed it's a frantic slurry of notes.
No, it's one of Beethoven's sonatas (D minor). The Flintstones theme appears in the second movement .
I don't get why people think country is so bad. If you like pop or rock you would probably like certain country songs/artists:S.
The bands I listen to explore pretty much every music genre EXCEPT country.
In that case you would probably like lots of country as most of it is rocky or poppy these days. Listen to Body Like A Back Road, it reached #6 on the overall music charts and has been #1 in country for months.

Nefeli is a Greek name with a mythology background and is related to rain. Oddly enough for Einaudi to use Greek, as he usually uses Italian or English titles for his pieces. Nuvole Bianche one of his most popular pieces and it means "while cloud" in Italian. Isn't that piece from his "Eden Roc" album?
I know Chopin's Etudes rather well, (as a listener anyway). The fourth piece from his first set is certainly a mountain of notes. I congratulate and envy your ability and skill, it's really something to have.
A quick note on one of your previous posts. I too found Bach repetitive and boring. I came across the fact that his "Goldberg Variations" are celebrated as some of the best solo keyboard pieces in history, so I listened. I was relieved when the recording was over, but then I listened the next day and again the next. I came to appreciate it as one of my favorite solo piano works and follow it along with some sheet music I bought. His "Art of Fugue" near gave me a headache, yet I forced myself to listen and have come to enjoy it.

On the radio, I heard this waltz by Johann Strauss that he composed for Queen Victoria. Apparently she rather liked it. But buried within the music were the tunes of God Save The Queen (UK national anthem) and Rule Britannia (another piece associated with the UK). Seems like Strauss knew how to please people ...

I know! I saw that film about a month ago. The music is way too good for it. What was your favorite scene? Mine was the "Mounrains" part and when cooper is in the "black hole" because there everything slots together.
A silverlining with a cloud. I'll try to look it up but not now. Speed can change lots of things.
What a rip-off. Thats what most people do though: rip people off.

I can't get past the weird voices they use.
You saying Carrie Underwood and Sam Hunt have weird voices:S:P?

I'm not sure about a favourite scene. The movie was pretty long but it was worth it. It never felt "stretched" like some movies *cough* The Hobbit sometimes do .
To be honest, most popular music is a rip-off of other music. They all use the same few chords. And ever listened to Ice Ice Baby and Under Pressure ? Those basslines sound... rather similar .
