Description:

Compact Discoveries Program 9: "Best Music for Back Rubs"

The music selected should reflect the type and style of backrub desired, the mood of the back rubber and rubbee, and the time of day that it is to be administered. This hour's different strokes for different folks includes Carl Orff's "Carmina Burana" (for those who like to be sat on, pounded with fists and pushed in with great force from above) and Rimsky-Korsakov's "Flight of the Bumblebee" (for those who prefer more of a tickle than a rub).
