What’s your favorite music?

Today’s home page features a great story by Carol Simmons, the DDN’s main music writer, listing the CDs you’d want to have to start your very own classical music collection. It’s a good list, too — in addition to the 25 that she gives as as the main must-haves, we will be running lists on different genres all through the week, drawn from the expertise of various DDN music writers and critics. Jazz, hip-hop, rock, blues, country — even local music from Dayton bands.

Next Sunday, we’ll cull the list down to the best of the best — the CDs you should just own, period, in order to be All You Can Be, in terms of well-rounded personhood. That list will be composed by myself and Alexis Larsen, the editor of GO! magazine in the DDN.

It’ll be a fun week! Stop by and let us know what you think.

Meanwhile, if you have any favorite songs, bands, albums or compositions you want to share this week, let us know. Post a comment and you might end up getting a vote in all this!

Cheers, Ron
