I don't consider the Inaugural Celebration smut. Do you?
Is anyone else into classical music? I'm starting to get a little tired of The Brandenberg Concertos and Water Music. Any suggestions?
Try
Brahms Piano Concerto No.2, OP 83. Brahms Concerto in D, Op 77.
(violin)
Tchaikovsky Concerto in D, Op. 35.
(violin)
Tchaikovsky #5
Ravel's Bolero
Monk, here are two channels you may find interesting

WGBH offers an all classical station

If you have cable or satellite access, check CSPAN for inaugural coverage.
It offers more than current events.
At the moment I am watching the inauguration of John F. Kennedy. I watched FD Roosevelt and Harry Truman inaugurations yesterday.
The CSPAN website offers access to past programing.

Since your exam will probably be snowed out tomorrow, watch this video about the power of classical music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9LCwI5iErE. My recommendation would be The Planets by Gustav Holst, introduced to me by my late, great boss, Harry Konzelman. Here's a brief intro: http://www.aquarianage.org/lore/holst.html.
