I like both of those as well. I am listening to some Bach right now. Excellent music. The liking them together reminded me of a Seinfeld episode in which George tried to combine all of his favorite activities together.....

Beer and music are good too. Beer and chess- not so good.
chess and sex are good together too

Once a week, on Tuesday evening from 8 to 10, I get to play chess and listen to a concert by the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra recorded live by KDFC.
It's my favorite time each week to play chess.
