As punishment for violating the city’s noise ordinance by playing loud rap music in his car, an Urbana man was sentenced to listen to 20 hours of symphonic music or pay a $130 fine. The symphonic selections included Beethoven, Chopin, Bach, DeBussy and other composers. He lasted 15 minutes and chose to instead pay the fine. I think I would have sentenced him to listen to an entire atonal opera. ![]()
