HELLO SPENCER,
SUCH AN INTERESTING QUESTION. I'VE NEVER BEEN ASKED SUCH A QUESTION. WHEN I WAS YOUNGER, ESPECIALLY MY COLLEGE YEARS, I'D OFTEN BE UP ALL NIGHT LISTENING TO MUSIC. BUT AS YOUR QUESTION POINTEDLY INQUIRES AS TO "HOW" I LISTEN, I MUST ADMIT THAT I WAS OFTEN DOING OTHER THINGS WHILE THE MUSIC PLAYED. HOWEVER, ON VACATIONS AND OTHER TIMES, I'D SPEND THE WHOLE NIGHT WADING AROUND IN THE POOL AND LISTENING TO MUSIC ALL NIGHT--A TRULY TRANSCENDENT EXPERIENCE. I CONTINUE TO DO THIS BUT NOT IN A POOL AS I MOVED FROM LA TO SF.
MOST OF THE MUSIC I LISTEN TO IS CLASSICAL; I LISTEN TO JAZZ AT THE OFFICE AND IN THE CAR PERHAPS 15-20% OF THE TIME. FROM TIME TO TIME, I'LL LISTEN TO CLASSIC ROCK AND CURRENT VOCALISTS LIKE ADELE. BUT CLASSICAL MUSIC IS FAR AND ABOVE EVERYTHING ELSE.
THANKS,
KENNETH
