Had a strange moment during my last indulgence where it occurred to me that blending tobacco was very much like orchestral music, the whole is a successful and talented combination of varied and distinct characteristics of the components. Here's what I came up with in general terms.
Virginias are the strings. Setting.
Burleys / woodwinds. Mood.
Latakia /percussion. Pace.
Turkish, Perique /brass. Story.
Casings could be of any class but I see them as soloists or choral accompaniment depending on their strength.
Cut is akin to venue.
I look forward to any and all responses, revisions, and reclassifications. My idea isn't really fleshed out at this point but I think it bears reflection and expansion. It can certainly be applied to any genre of music.
It would also be interesting to hear your association of individual blends with genres, and even individual songs and compositions.
