Mimi Ezust: >Which are the compositions we select when we need a good old pal, or >want to renew ourselves after a very stressful time? What is our own >personal, guaranteed, tried-and-true feel-good music? What are the >pieces of music we have sought out more than five times in the last year? > >Schubert Fifth Symphony comes to mind immediately for me: it has lifted >me from some very serious doldrums. > >Candidates, anyone? The Sibelius Seventh Symphony has lived in my cd player throughout a stressful summer. To listen to it is to feel better about life. Bernard Chasan
