Novel, but I think antibiotics are still the recommended treatment.

Depends, blues may be they only thing left if its HIV.

Seriously though, christopher norton...  rock and/or latin preludes, or some of the microjazz series (which may be too easy, you'll have to check it out)..  kerin bailey's jazzin around series..

Brian bonsor also wrote a few cool modern works that have been in the AMEB grade 6-7 syllabus.

AMEB has some great stuff for STDs. Works like a charm. (Any links to music which is free?)
