... I think I should just ignore the bassoon comments from now on. The Moonlight Sonata should also go on that list, probably. Für Elise and Eine Kleine Nachtmusik. And the William Tell Overture, probably, since everyone's heard the famous bits at least once, but nobody can really tell you where it's from.

Those are indeed worthy contributions to the list! I shall add them.

Really, we've got to make different pieces more accessible.

Like Sarasate's Zigeunerweisen! I think there should be a music appreciation day at the host club.

... good music appreciation day. Not over-played music appreciation day.

I think Kantoku's performance on Valentine's Day helped Sarasate gain a few more fans. I'd love to introduce Zapateado.

Oh, I love that piece! It has a really nice piano arrangement-- let me see if I can go find it.

Now this would be a fun duet to work on, do you think?

Well, it's pretty bohemian. How's your affinity for the left-handed pizzicato?

Right, right. Then we should definitely do it! It's a really fast-paced and catchy piece too, so everyone would probably understand the proper way to play classical music is better than the synthesized versions!

Indeed. I think even Kenya would sit still for it.

You don't really have to make it sound like it's a hard thing for him to do.

....You've never spoken to Kenya, have you?

I have! Kenya-san is a really nice person, Oshitari-san.

Then you know he can't sit still.

I'm sure he can! I think Kenya-san is a very patient person.
