• At the International Enneagram Conference in San Francisco 
in August, 2000, Elizabeth presented a 90 minute concert, "The Enneagram of Music - the Sky's the Limit"

 with Knute Fisher and Courtney Behm, singers

While Elizabeth's CD, The Beethoven Enneagram, emphasizes her classical music background, this performance explored classical,  rock,  movie music,  jazz, the American musical, and more...  

THE PROGRAM:

Variations on an All Too Familiar Theme - type One plays the Theme, followed by eight variations. Improvised by Elizabeth Wagele.

In some of the following music, the flavor of the type is enhanced by the way it is played. In most, the type is clearly rooted in the composition.  Some of the words of the songs were changed.
