Have you ever heard...

All 24 variations of "Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini" by Sergei Rachmaninoff?  All in one sitting?  By a live orchestra?  With an amazing pianist?  Who had the entire 24 minutes of it memorized?  And were two of your boys playing violin in the orchestra?  And did variation 18 make you cry?

Yes, to all of the above.  Unforgettable!
