When you phone the IRS, they first put you on hold for about 10-15 minutes. Then, you talk to someone who transfers you to the appropriate office, and you go back on hold for another 5-10 minutes (this might happen more than once). So, what do you get to listen to while waiting? Well, I made two phone calls during April, and both times the playlist was as follows:
1) Waltz of the Flowers from Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite
2) The first movement (Allegro) from Mozart's Eine Kleine Nachtmusik
Repeat.
I have to give the IRS credit, as I can't think of any other tunes I'd rather listen to while on hold for so long. (Also, I should mention that both times they answered my questions fully and professionally.)
