I can well imagine that music might be a popular passtime among list members (simply because minds that are simultaneously creative and analytical are probably likely to be inclined that way). Myself, I mostly listen to folk music, and play (& compose, improvise, etc with) keyboard instruments. I have three hours of music saved on my computer (and, of course, more in my CD collection) which is divided into several folders, including: - Folk music - Instrumentals - Songs in Foreign Languages - Modern The Songs in Foreign Languages include representatives from Irish Gaelic, Spanish, Finnish, Swedish, Hebrew, and a native language of Papua New Guinea. Some I have translations for; some I don't. I uploaded some fragments of my favourite folk music to http://web.netyp.com/member/dragon/miscellaneous/favouritefolk.htm (It's on my wishlist to get a microphone suitable for recording voice and my keyboard playing straight onto my computer; when I have this I will certainly record conlang sentences.) Adrian.
