Seven wonders of the musical world?

Somewhat different. Results of reader poll, Classic CD magazine, January 2000:

  1. Bach: St Matthew Passion
  2. Beethoven: symphony no. 9
  3. Stravinsky: Rite of Spring
  4. Wagner: Der Ring des Nibelungen
  5. Bach: B Minor Mass
  6. Handel: Messiah
  7. Mozart: Le nozze di Figaro

Is there an alternate sort of wonderment with "Louie, Louie", PDQ Bach, and "Purple People Eater"? Howard C. Berkowitz 18:10, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
I've never heard of the "Wonders of the musical world", but I guess I could add it. Can you link to somewhere where I could get more information about it?
Personally I think any list that excludes the talents of more modern, popular artists such as Slash, Van Halen, and Jimi Hendrix isn't worth much weight. :) Drew R. Smith 07:16, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
I can't give a link; indeed I couldn't find this in a Google search & had to dig out & search through the printed back issues to find the reference. The page numbers I put on Wikinfo if that's any improvement.
Time will tell whether the other things you mentioned will survive. Peter Jackson 09:45, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
When I say dig out, I should say get the library staff to dig out.
The original magazine gives all the titles in English. I've arbitrarily put some in their original languages. If this is appropriate for inclusion in CZ, it no doubt has its own naming policy. Peter Jackson 15:36, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
Ok, go ahead and add it then. Just be sure to follow the style set by the other "wonders lists". We don't want our article looking like this.Drew R. Smith 19:46, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
