I began to appreciate classical music when I was just entering high-school. At 14 I began to regularly buy tapes, Mahler's 2nd was one of the first and remains a firm favorite. For a while I was into audiophile hi-fi but a family soon burst that bubble. However, I have been able to expose them to great music and now they all have a taste for it and some understanding that it requires a different type of hearing.
