Classical/World Music

[Emperor2]

I saw a "Punk-Hardcore" thread, and I really despise that kind of music, so I thought I would start up this one. I realize that World music is not always the same as Classical music, but where I am from, they are usually grouped under the same category. So, please post your favorite world or classical music pieces for others to enjoy!

My favorite Classical composer is Beethoven
9th Symphony in D minor
"Ode to joy"

RED ARMY CHOIR
"A partisan's song"
"On the March"
"Volga Boat Song"
"Meadowlands"

 

[Firstlady]

New World Symphony-Dvorak
Pictures at the Exhibition-Mussorgsky
Symphonic Dance-Rachmaninoff
Chorale and Shaker Dance-Zdechlik
Moonlight Sonata- Beethoven

YOU listen to the red army choir? Why do you despise Punk-Hardcore? Cause you can't get rich off it?

World: Peter Gabriel's Passion album

Classical:

• Beethoven's Pathetique piano piece.
• Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite
• Grieg's Aases' Death
• Frank Zappa's Boulez Conducts Frank Zappa: Perfect album.

Quoted for excellent music. I'm also partial to the 1812 Overture by Tchaikovsky.

What's classical music?

In musical theory terms it is pre jazz music, in popular terms it is orchestra music.
