I have no clue what he’s listening to, but I like it. Can anyone help me out? Which composers, etc.? Thanks… ---

I haven’t seen Boston Public the last couple of seasons, but before that he was listening to a lot of Dvorak’s symphony #9 (aka “From the New World” or “New World Symphony”), especially the last movement. ---

I think we’re still in season 1 here… they started showing it just under a year ago. I love the show. And I like the music. ---
