<p>With two violinists, five pianists, and a horn player (there’s some overlap there – there are only five of us in our family) we all love classical music. Our classical radio station here has been playing a lot of Mozart all week. We are (naturlich!) especially fond of the horn concertos. Was in Munich yesterday, and there were special Mozart-related concerts, performances, even a puppet show(!) all day.</p>
<p>Tsdad, so that’s how you spell it…I went looking for “I’m Not Inclined to Knock Music.” Whew. Isn’t it grand? Isn’t it clear?</p>
<p>TheDad:</p>
<p>It goes like this: “[I’m not] Inclined [to] Knock Music.” It also precedes
“Here comes fate knocking at the door,” aka Beethoven’s 5th; and also the scene in Don Giovanni where the Commendatore rudely interrupts Don Giovanni’s banquet.</p>
<p>It is truly staggering to contemplate how much happiness Mozart and the other great composers have given humanity the last few hundred years.</p>
<p>It is remarkable but Philadelphia does not have a 24/7 classical music station. During the past year we have set up wireless internet in the house and I often listen to a live feed from KUSC in Los Angeles sent from the computer to our Bose system. I am not knowledgeable about the music but it is a pleasure to listen to.</p>

That is remarkable about Philadelphia. When I moved to the NYC area there were 3 stations - now we are down to one.</p>
<p>You might want to look into satelite radio. XM has 3 stations devoted to classical. You can now buy receivers that can be used both in the home and in the car. Besides the very wide range of music (mostly without commercials), it is great for long trips through remote areas where it is not possible to get any good radio stations.</p>
<p>I listen to WQXR (NY Times’s radio station) and WNYC (NPR of NYC). Both play classical. Big Mozart fan here, Mozart was who got me interested in Western Classical music in the first place.</p>
