An intellectual is someone who can listen to The William Tell Overture and NOT think of The Lone Ranger.
Beethoven was so deaf, he thought he was painting.
That's me done, but I was never an intellectual, only a dum dum who latched onto classical music to look like an intellectual.

One of my favourite bits of the 1610 vespers, this catches exactly the ringing of bells, dance rhythms and how Monteverdi used the popular music (opera; madrigals,dance) to make a religious work.
Hang on..Beethoven write a piano concerto no 6? Well...he started one but didn't continue. It has its' flaws but in many ways would have built up to a heck of a concerto, with glimpses of the 9th symphony.
and of course you can't ever hear the harpsichord.
