I listen to it if I can't sleep...

I love classical. I like Wagner and Grieg--although I wouldn't really call either of those composers soothing, but they're great anyway! I also like Sibelius, but have only heard a few of his works. When I want to be soothed, I listen to Bach or someone like that. Tchaikovsky is cool too. And so is Brahms and Beethoven etc. etc.

:jawdrop: There are others that like classical music? YAY! I'm not alone! THank the Valars! I swore I was. Okay, due to limited funds, and my radio being uncooperative, I haven't had a chance to listen to a wide spectrum of classical music, but, I like Beethoven, Vivaldi, Pachelbel, and Mozart. I've heard other songs by other composers I adored, but wouldn't you know I forgot or never learned the composer nor the title of the song!!! Ack!

Do you count Irish/Celtic as classical? If so, The Irish Tenors and the Chieftains are right up my alley!

Okay, I'm ending before I completely geek out over this.

I love classical music - I've basically been brought up on it, learning violin and viola, and waking up to a classical radio station since I was nine... :)

I love Bach, Bruch, Vivaldi, Eccles, Schubert (Unfinished Symphony! so much fun to play!!!), Mozart is alright, I really, really, really like basically everything I've heard of Faure... and their are many composers I've heard a piece here, a piece there that I like, too.
I like orchestrated stuff, strings, violin/cello sonatas, piano, and choral... can't really listen to opera... Barque is probably my favourite, but that is influenced by my playing - I just prefer to play Barque pieces... oh, yes, like Elgar too...

Oh, Bach especially. Also Verdi, and Mozart. I just love classical music. It's so rich, and catches so many moods. :)
I usually am driven to work because right now we only have one car, but whenever it's my day to have it I always listen to the classical station during my drive.

Trust me, I was just the same. And when at the music class, I always pretend to be annoyed by Classi just to keep some un-nerdiness (yeah, if you listen to something noone else dos, you're a nerd. stupid x_x)

Wow, did they? Cool. Must try it. xD


And I really have to learn to play piano even though it's a wee but late.

I don't own any cds of classical music, but i will listen to it if it's on. I have a lot of repsect for it as musician and won't dismiss it at all.

My first music love was classical. Thats the main reason I like power metal so much; the two have a lot in common.

Why weird??
I'm a Mozart freak, and I also love Beethoven, Tschaikowsky,Chopin and Grieg, plus a lot more others.

I studied some classical guitar and piano some years ago.

Believe it or not, I listen to it now and then. Not as much as I used to though...I always had Classic FM on the background during the day or at night when I had trouble sleeping.
*Note to self* Must try that again... :blink:

My absolute favourite piece of classical music is Ride of the Valkyries by Wagner. Just stunning.
