I just wrote the simple statement: What music do you think is best when playing a game of chess?

Yes, but my first post was edited. I don't know why that happened. I just deleted it so that it wouldn't happen again.

Uh, you also talked about how your favourite music was the sound of one hand clapping, right?

Q: What do you listen to when playing?

A: The sound of one clapping after I win. Seriously, nothing as a rule - few of us are capable of genuine multi-tasking and I'm certainly no exception to this rule, so I'll just end up not hearing whatever's on the radio/ipod/whatever if I'm concentrating on a game or a chessbook. However, I did read that the late Bobby Fischer liked to listen to music while analyzing games.

I could listen to "Say Hello to Heaven" 4 or 5 times in a row during a game once in a while...

My mistake, corrijeanEmbarassed I was listening to 40s swing music on Pandora when I went to see your post, then the music stopped, and your post was just this big gooey blur. I thought it was something to do with your post, but it was just my obstinate computerLaughing

If you're listening to music during a chess game, you're not a chess player.
