92.Dis-Comcerting
i had been trying to get my friend mike-a rock' n roll fan-interested in classical music. when i offered to purchase tickets to a mozart festival, he willingly agreed to accompany me and seemed to enjoy the symphony.
after the concert, i mentioned how mozart's music moved me. "at times, i can almost hear his voice in his music and i feel as though he's talking to me," i said.
mike nodded his head in solemn agreement. "yes," he said. "i know what you mean."
feeling very pleased that i had made a "convert", i asked what he felt the music was saying to him.
he replied, "it said 'go to sleep, michael. go to sleep.
