Recently, ArtsWom have been spending a lot of time getting to know those classical music afficiandos over at the Magle International Music forums. After having a good look around, we are bringing you some links to just a few of the conversations that caught our eye.

Geographic composer ABC game – This compellingly difficult game has been going on for years and is now on its seventeenth page! Fancy yourself as a walking encyclopedia of classical composers? Put yourself to the test here!

Are CDs destined to the same fate as cassettes? - Fascinating discussion here, and the attitude is somewhat defeatist for the poor (potentially endangered) compact disc.

Tchaikovsky’s heterosexuality – ‘Bilbo47′ raises a serious point by discussing the composer’s sexual orientation and how he is remembered (celebrated?) as being homosexual in the West and yet considered heterosexual in Russia. ‘Bilbo47′ asks for clarification on the issue which leads to an informative conversation.

Snow White, Alien Hunter – Granted this isn’t really a conversation, and it has nothing to do with classical music, but we found it impressive nonetheless!
