Rodney is a Concert Pianist/composer

Hi all, I'm looking for stories in which Rodney is a concert pianist and/or composer and/or generally highly respected/revered/feared musical genius type things.

And mcShep.

I saw a similar post but it was back in April 2009 and I'm hoping for MOAR.

Er, that is all, thanks in advance for any suggestions/links you have.

(and of course there's lots more cool themed lists of SGA fics (http://skaredykat.livejournal.com/1083.html#cutid4), if you like those...)
