Music: Baroque, Classical, Romantic, Impressionistic, some Contemporary. Authentic folk music and some jazz, when done well.

Educated U.S. & U.K. Natural & professional interest in human minds (and often dismayed by what I observe.) Deep appreciation of beauty in all forms: music, art, architecture, poetry & prose, nature, and the human form...antidotes to the ugliness and cruelty too evident in the world. I highly prize people who are compassionate, civil, cultured, educated, and who have interesting ideas to share.
