Well, as merry as a Monday can be, I suppose.
Today I had this joyful piece playing over and over in my head:
I find it quite merry and jolly, despite how fast and frantic it sounds. It quite matched the tempo of my Monday morning, anyway. One can be busy and in good spirits!
I’m quite chuffed that I now get classical music stuck in my head instead of run-of-the-mill pop songs. It’s certainly less irritating.
I’m also chuffed that I recognised this as something composed by Mozart. I guess they must play it on the radio quite a bit, but Mozart has composed so much that I thought my chances of hearing any singular piece enough times to recognise it as Mozart was quite slim.
Anyway, I think this Rondo Alla Turca has probably been used in TV and movies and whatnot, so maybe it might sound at least vaguely familiar to a lot of people, even if you aren’t a regular classical music fan.

My mother used to say she always knew Mozart had written something if the music went around in circles. 🙂
That is a good tip! I’ll listen out for it 😉
I always think of that piece as the one Mrs Hurst plays in the BBC Pride and Prejudice series after Mary does something limp and dreadful.
Haha it’s been a long time since I watched that! Might have to rewatch it one day
