Any Classical Music lovers ?

[MistWolf]

When asked if I were to be marooned on a desert and could only have the music of one artist to listen to, who would I pick?- I answer "Leopold Stokowski"

I love classical music

[Phillygunguy]

I love Baroque and Classical, I think Bach kicks ass also like Henry Purcell and Marin Marais, love Mozart Beethoven and impressionist composers like Debussy, Ravel, and Satie
However Jazz is my favorite

I like classical music, but partial to romantic period composers--Tchaikovsky, Rimsky-Korsokov, Wagner, Dvorak, the dudes that used more brass. I just never really got into some of the "tinniness" of the earlier stuff. As much as I love music, my fave is jazz. I played low brass throughout college in orchestra, etc., and bass in jazz.

My high-school, dropout, Depression-era parents always had something classical on, particularly when Canadian FM stations made their appearance in the 1960s. I learned how to appreciate it from them.

I also like Gregorian chant, Gilbert and Sullivan, Big Band, and Hank Snow.

Modern music? Just shoot me.

Baroque music is my absolute favorite with anything Vivaldi and the Brandenburg Concertos right at the top

I love me some Vivaldi!

If you're a classical music fan, my father was the head of faculty to the New England Conservatory of Music, and founder of various orchestras, best known probably the Boston Classical Orchestra, and a very well known violinist in his day. Here's Mozart Sonata in E Minor, K. 304 Movement I , which is one of the finest versions of this sonata you'll hear. If you're a classical music buff, you'll recognize the name John Gibbons also. Even if you're not a classical music person in general, I think you'll find this very pleasing to the ears and brain.



Movement II, which I think is even better HERE

Very nice,do you play as well?
