Saturday afternoon, when I was living at home and growing up, was always the Metropolitan Opera and woe betide him/her who spoke unnecessarily. And so I love opera and classical music. But not German opera. But otherwise our house was silent. And I never had music on while doing homework. It would not have been allowed.
And so, now, many decades later, I still need silence to work and thus have on no music while cooking. Or working. Too bad.
