Did you know some of Hector Berlioz's music was used in video/computer games (such as the Fate of Atlanits, when you enter the Colossus) and movies?

I have a question for you, Hector...
I seem to recall reading that Berlioz was rather...eccentric...(I mean this in a good way...!) In my reading about composers of that era, I recall that there was a composer that had numerous cats and was extremely fond of them. I want to say that it was Berlioz, but I don't remember. It was someone in that romantic/impressionist time period. I'm just curious, as I have this need to know all things feline... Thank you!

According to Naxos.com, Debussy is no. 1, and Berlioz is only no. 2!! *throws a sharp dart at a portrait of Debussy* (which by the way is already filled up with darts...cant really tell it was Debussy ...).

Ever heard Debussy's Children's Corner Suite? Really cool music...such as Golliwog's Cakewalk. Go to amazon.com and check out a sample.

I heard that was a very dark piece of music...describing how and why the child must stand in the corner for days on end...no food or water...Debussy is said to have been a father whowas like that torwards his children, and decided he liked the idea for a piece of music....
Or Not

Re: Hector Berlioz-The Man, his Music, the Romantic.
Quote:
I have always liked classical music, baroque music, romantic music, impressionist music, in fact i like any form of music EXCEPT talentless pop bimbos, like Ms B Speers, and Ms C Aguileera (sp.). When i say i like classical, and then go on to say i like heavy metal and gothic etc etc i always get funny looks. Is it not possible that someone may like many different forms of music? Is it not true that all music can trace itself back to classics? I know what you mean about the 'wall', hector, although Mozart is one of my favourite composers, i know the depth behind that 'wall', and i like all sorts. Two composers i am enjoying at the moment are Georges Bizet (i love Carmen!), and Boccherini, especially Boccherini's String Quartet in E |

Seriously, have you heard or heard of the Children's Corner Suite (solo piano)? If not, you should.

Did Hector Berlioz have a middle name? I haven't been able to find one anywhere!
