3 clues fer ya: #1 - Directed by an American expatriate (like Yours Truly) who was JUST RECENTLY MENTIONED in another one of my RECENT posts.. #2 - It was (IMHO) an idealistic look at what the FIRST OFFICIAL YEAR of the 21st Century -- and all its technological & astrological achievements therein -- were envisioned to be like.. #3 - The special effects were WAY ahead of their time. Preceding the works of George Lucas by about....9 years or so.. TOO easy, m8's..... OpinionsCartoonStudios@Yahoo.Co.UK

Chopin, definitely. My favorite. Though I enjoy pretty much anything mellow involving piano, violin, or cello. I likes strings. When it's time for something epic I quite enjoy Nobuo Uematsu's music, though that would be considered a bit nerdy I suppose since he's most famous for his work with the Final Fantasy game series. Absolutely amazing composer, though, regardless of where his music is showcased.

Both rather superb tunes, I must say... An interesting anecdote, now, about Conductor DANIEL BARENBOIM Brilliant conductor...equally brill pianist.. Though his social mores have much to be desired, IMO.. Some Time Back, he & his orchestral entourage made a Concert Tour of Israel. Unfortunately, he took it upon himself....with no malice aforethought, I am sure....just unwittingly did what he did....to present to the audience performances of compositions by RICHARD WAGNER...An AVOWED ANTI-SEMITE! One word & one word only on that, m8's: OUCH!:smt018 OpinionsCartoonStudios@Yahoo.Co.UK
