Pets And/Vs. Music
Started by Joy RobbJoy Robb
My cat, Sprinkie, made me think of this one. She seems to like classical music, but enjoys singing more. I've heard of pets having some really funny reactions to music.
If I open my case, she likes to run over and play in it and chew the tip of my bow. (not literally, don't tell the conductor)
This made me wonder- who else has pets with cute/hilarious reactions to music?

Okay.

I used to have a cat that would play the piano with me. xD
Plants love classical music too.
Joy Robb
Plants do love classical music! (just like me. I'm have a lot of things in common with plants:) )
Waky_Zaky
That's interesting.
Joy Robb
Yep, I just sit there and eat whatever you feed me, Jk jk. My cat sits underneath the piano now whenever I try to play.
Waky_Zaky
I play the piano, too.
Joy Robb
Wow! How many years have you been playing? :)
Waky_Zaky
I have been playing for about seven years. How about you?
Joy Robb
Violin, 5
Piano, I just sightread with one hand, :)
Waky_Zaky
That's a start. :D

Are you planning to get better?
Piece of Peace
I always plan to get better. Actually getting better is the hard part.
Waky_Zaky
That is a good goal. Are you practicing any specific songs right now? Currently I am working on Canon in D.
Piece of Peace
My current go-to practice song is a hymn arrangement of Be Thou My Vision. But I also will pull out a hymnal and play through it.
Waky_Zaky
Cool. My other instrument is the recorder. How advanced are you in violin?
Piece of Peace
Well-advanced. I've taken lessons for 12 years. I could always be better though.
Waky_Zaky
You are absolutely correct. You can always be better.
Joy Robb
Be Thou my Vision is one of my favourites!
Piece of Peace
Mine too. It's such a simple melody that it's easy to play so you can focus on the message in the song. It is beautiful.
Waky_Zaky
Yes, it is. One of my favorite songs on the piano is Oceans. I have learned it perfectly, so I can actually pay attention to the words of the song.
Piece of Peace
That is a beautiful song, as well.
Waky_Zaky
You said that Be thou my Vision Is one of your favorites, but do you have one favorite above all the others?
Piece of Peace
Picking a favorite song is the hardest thing for me. But You Raise Me Up is one of the songs that has been on my favorites list for the longest.
Waky_Zaky
That is a good song. Another one of my personal favorites to listen to is Fix My Eyes And Joy on air one.
Piece of Peace
I love For King and Country!
Waky_Zaky
Me too. I think it is my favorite band.
Waky_Zaky
What is one of your favorite For King And Country songs?
Piece of Peace
My favorite is either God Only Knows or Ceasefire.
Waky_Zaky
Yeah, those are really good ones too.
Joy Robb
Rosie, "You Raise me Up" is one of my favourites to listen to!
Joy Robb
So, does anyone else's pets have favorite composers? My cat used to like Vivaldi, which is my favorite, btw, but now she only likes Bach.
Waky_Zaky
favorite composers? No, not that I can think of.
