Amazon has (or had?) a sale on now on select cds, buy 3 get one free. (Supersaver shipping still applies, too).
Sheetmusicplus.com has a 20% off G. Schirmer editions for September. I just got five cds: John Rutter's Requiem, Tallis's Spem In Alium, Tavener's Lament for Jerusalem, Pärt's Passio, and Elgar & V Williams (Fantasia on Tallis).

Good choices, IMO. Look into Tavener's "The Protecting Veil". Great piece.

How about the composers that have dissapointed you?
Big letdowns: Brahms Debussy Ives Ligeti (what trash the Aventures are...)

Well, I'm sorry, but I already got mine. (If I did get an Ipod, it would have to be a black one. *dislikes white media/entertainment appliances*)

He seemed to be something more approaching a deist...Thomas Jefferson-ish.

Jabba the Hutt: What's that ugly pig thing over there?
Saluscious Crumb: That's a Gamorrean guard. Your guard. Don't you know? Jabba: Oh, I thought it was dinner.. *takes a green squid-like thing out of tray next to him*

* is calm, is calm...*
So last night I was listening to Ligeti's "Aventures". These pieces of crap are basically this: crap. But to get into the actual components, it is made up of human "sounds", such as grunts shrieks and evil laughs. Kind of like a cappela from hell. It scared me to death last night...it's plain demonic. Don't believe me? try tracks 6-8 HERE
