A symphony of music for your listening enjoyment
Now that Bunny is back in town, I can finally post a bunch of musical links
for her (and your) enjoyment.
First off, a Muppet [1] duet—the Swedish Chef and Beaker [2]. Carmen [3]
perhaps? It's familiar to me at any rate.
Next, a sextet, comprising of Beaker, Beaker, Beaker, Beaker, Beaker and
Beaker, performing Ode to Joy [4].
Third up, everybody's favorite 17^th century one-hit wonder [5] Pachelbel
[6]. Another solo sextet, but not Beaker this time. Give this one a bit of
time, it starts off a bit slow, but gets better.
Fourth up, Theremin music [7]! Super Mario Brothers video game theme music
[8] (link via nevesis [9]). In fact, the guy that did that plays a lot of
Theremin music [10].
While listening to those, there's a theoretical paper on the semantic shifts
of the Beatles' chords [11]. That is, if you are into music theory.
And just because, a dancing chicken [12].
