    I had a friend who took a university course that was centered on the classical music of Looney tunes.

    Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies were originally started by Warner Bros. to showcase their music publishing interests, promote popular songs of the day which they owned and featured in their musical films, and to serve as advertisements for their recordings and sheet music. Today, the descendant Warner Music Group is one of the big four music publishing conglomerates. Fun fact.

    I'm learning about classical music because its the most fun to play on an instrument.
