I definitely would want to go to a LMAO Barbeque. That doesn't sound appetizing.

It is that very early-Stravinsky harmony and melodic stuff.

Got to agree, early Stravinsky produced some very beautiful music. Ravel and Debussy wrote some similar music; I'd recommend a listen to Daphnis and Chloe, and La Mer. Not necassarily romantic, but incredibly warm.

Edit: with my last few posts, I've become an intermediate composer! I'm surely only a hundred-odd posts from being the next Wagner! Can't wait!

I think romantic songs reveal the true meaning of love and listening to some beautiful romantic songs motivates me to composing one myself.

for some reason, baroque music can sometimes sound so "romantic" to me. its almost as if the more subtle the emotions are, the more romantic the music is.

God... Some of you kids....

Well if I go by some of your definitions and "feelings" then Berio's Sequenzas No. V and VI are very romantic because I've made passionate love while listening to them.

Then my b/f cheated on me..>

Well, how romantic is this story? Did he cheat on you with another woman or another man? I mean, Romanticism can get pretty juicy. Let's hear the details!
