Couple of random impressions about music

I was thinking the other day about how I react to music.
Just can't help moving to Tchaikovsky - like jumping up and starting to dance..
Or singing to Verdi, although he has amazing movement too. I always think about the entr'acte in La Traviata - a slow sinuous waltz in 4/4 time...
And Wagner - like Jabba the Hutt in white tie and tails...
And Puccini - Wagner lite. Sentimental pornography for the petty bourgeoisie.
