bah, too difficult you will have to find out what you like by listening to different things... Bach is always good. Mozart is jolly. Beethoven = lovable emo. I personally like Edvard Grieg a lot, and Igor Stravinsky. Of the more contemporary composers, I would single out the minimalists (Terry Riley, Philip Glass, Steve Reich...) and some of the modernist composers, like Luigi Nono and Karlheinz Stockhausen. Whether that falls under the category of what you'd call "classical" I don't know, but strictly speaking classical is only a period in history predating Romanticism. It's easier to classify things based on the instruments used, like "piano music" or "orchestral music". |

Bach's Mass in B Minor performed by period instruments and a small group of singers. Domenico Scarlatti's sonatas for harpsichord. If youre a fan of the harpsichord listen to the those versions, if you prefer the piano-forte find a version performed on a modern piano. Theyre both great. |

start with the early stuff. forget the gregorian, go straight to the renaissance choral music. try these on for size. otherwise classical music becomes too complex and personal, but start with bach and dig until you find something you like. these are all opinions that are issued without warranty. but trust me, check these: Miserere Composed by Gregorio Allegri Spem in Alium (also set as "Sing and glorify"), motet for 40 voices Composed by Thomas Tallis Osculetur me osculo, motet for 8 voices, M. xix (S. xxi/9) Composed by Orlande de Lassus Salve regina mater, motet for 6 voices, M. xiii (S. xiii/125) Composed by Orlande de Lassus Work(s) [Unspecified] Ave Maria Composed by Josquin Desprez Dum transisset sabbatum (i), motet for 5 (another version exists for 4) voices Composed by John Taverner Magnificat Composed by Manuel Cardoso |

if you check just one, check "dum transisset sabbatum." nice and loud, on your best system. |

look for Tallis Scholars performances, btw... if you think you've got the fucking guts. |

Fredrich Chopin- I really like his piano/cello pieces (nocturnes especially) Erik Satie- Gymnopedies series |

Debussy. I don't like it when pretty much anyone else touches a piano . |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Maurice Ravel for tasteful piano and Alexander Scriabin for some batshit virtuosic piano |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Schubert Sonatas sucker! I let him touch the ol' piano from time to time. Dark and featherlight. Balinese gamelan is also quite the shit, in an Eastern sort of way. I'd have to recommend the recordings by unknown! |

Personally I can't listen to anything before late Romantic.. Before that all the harmonies and tones are just too standard.. I like the more newer modern compositions.. Some of my favorites are Wagner, Debussy, Grieg, Stravinsky.. |

since i give quite every kind of music a chance i borrowed a best of classic 5 cd set from a friend. i hated 99%. most of it was this "aristocratic celebratory" supposed to be joy-and playfulness that just makes me want to kill! still i had a lot of fun doing http://www.sendspace.com/file/cbjw1c" target=_blank>this ... track here i seriously like it although the sound doesnt match a real orchestra. have fun! |

personally i like full orchestral music with a darker tone. my favorites are thierry escaich - miroir d'ombres/vertiges de la crois/chaconne webern - passacaglia for orchestra, op. 1 stravinsky - petrusjka takemitsu - dreamtime/a flock of birds descend debussy - la mer (lighter but brilliant harmonies) arvo part - lamentate ligeti - cordes la vide thats all i can remember off memory, will check my collection when i get back home. these are all longtime favorites of mine that ive heard many times. |

I'll go modern minimalism Steve Reich: Music for 18 musiciansis a good start Philip Glass:Glassworks is dated but good Terry Riley: <A Rainbow in curved Air is my favourite |
