If you've never cried because of music...you will

Today I experienced music in a whole new way.  I am taking a music appreciation class and my instructor recommended watching the movie "Immortal Beloved."  Never in my life, have I felt music the way I did when I watched this movie.  The passion of Beethoven, the tragedy of his life, his genius, and his romantic idealism ripped my soul in two.  I cried listening to his symphony #9, finally understanding the man in the music.  I highly recommend seeing this movie, the trailer doesn't do it justice.  It is beautiful. Period.
