Interesting.  I note the recurrence of the idea that classical music
"makes you think", or you have to think about it to enjoy it, or that
it's "devoid of emotion"!

In fact, I rarely think about music while I'm listening to it, and the
main reason I listen to it is not to hear a "story", but to be simply
and deeply moved by intense feeling.
