I like the experimental classical music. but i like some
bethoveen. i don't like peieces that go on and on and on
for like an hour. i find those hard to listen to...and most
of them are too 'bouncy' for me...meaning they're too fast
and giddy i suppose. but thats okay... i dont mind some
stuff like that.

i like slower peices...more for chamber...not so much whole
orchestra. but i think i'll rather hear a choir sing....i
like either all female or all male...not mixed. i love
choral music. slow...almost 'back in the castle days' type
music or 'roman catholic' type singing..but not so much.
the music where latin is used.

I was listening to The Thieving Magpie earlier. So purdy. I
don't really know all the names and what music they did, but
I love classical.

But even I can spell Beethoven right, Zeus :-p

Mozart and Bach are ze masters IMO

mum's italian an i was suckled on opera and classical music.
i was such a musical snob, never listening to crapsky ze
peeps in school listened to....especially radio crap. anyway
it would take me days to list my fav's but suffice it to
say...on the piano horowitz has no equal....on the guitar
segovia is the master....those two men bring the music TO
LIFE for moi! =0)

I listen to classical music every now and then, here are
some of my favorite compositions:

Mozart - Requiem
Gorecki - [forgot name...most well know work]
Brahms - pionaconcerto #2
Bach - Grand Motets (and almost everything he composed)
Preisner - Requiem for my friend
Stravinsky - Sacre du printemps [still scares the shit aout
of me]

I have a question. Somebody answer it or the girl dies.

In 2001: A Space Odyssey, that classic them music (also Ric
Flair's entrance music, cool), is that John Williams? Or is
it some classical guy from long ago? I am confused, which
happens often.

I'm not really a fan of any particular "classical" artist
apart from Reich or Satie (who I suppose are too modern to
count...), but I do really like certain pieces by various
classical composers.

we were drinking vodka with Raymond (he always has a bottle
of Stoli at every gig), talking crap, Hein was drinking
Southern Comfort (his fav) and had some Corona's with the
other band members... until we got all pissed and started to
play hide'n'seek backstage... except for Liv... that she
always leaves for her hotel...

I'm in my classical music discovery phase. Right now I'm
purchasing stuff faster than actually absorbing it in my
brain. I think I generally like the Baroque period until the
early romantic period more than the music after that
because, for me, the earlier music has more coherence and
most of the later music is more like orchestral FX. The
exceptions are Ravel and Debussy, but maybe that's because I
have their music a bit longer so I understand it better. I'm
currently exploring Beethoven's Stringquartets and I really
like them a lot, although Grosse Fuge(last part of his final
quartet) is still a little bit too difficult for me, right
now. Classical music has really made my life better, I feel
more inspired and a bit happier. So, yes I like classical
music.
