Springfield Symphony offering free ringtones

Beethoven's ninth is now a ringtone — brought to you by an unlikely source of ringtones, the Springfield Symphony Orchestra. Springfield News-Sun reports.

"Symphony orchestras can be relevant in the 21st century," said operations director Robyn Zimmann, "and are relevant."

What started as an idea by the symphony's audience development committee is now a reality. The SSO is offering free cell phone ringtones — short clips of the orchestra in concert — on its Web site.

The SSO is offering four ringtones (plus two phone wallpapers) to start with, but let's be brutally honest here — Mozart isn't Lil Wayne, and "Eine Kleine Nachtmusic" ain't "Lollipop."
