EPT2 examples of classical music I like
I know its not really original and thats why I started this topic. I cant seem to find good classical music on my own. So if anyone knows a good piece or could give me some recommendations, I would be glad.

Antonio Lucio Vivaldi - The Four Seasons (Le Quattro Stagioni, 1723) Johan Sebastian Bach - Toccata & Fugue in D Minor (1703-1707) BWV 565 Jean Sibelius - Finlandia, Op. 26 (1900) Edvard Grieg - Peer Gynt (1867) The last song isn't classical, it's a modern classical movie soundtrack by John Williams, he has many masterful movie soundtracks such as the following: Star Wars (1977) Schindler's List (1993) Jurassic Park (1993) Hook (1991) Memoirs of a Geisha (2005) Those are my personal favorites of this genre, try listening to them and hope you like them!  | ||

Most stuff by Sibelius More contemporary Classical, try Bond: Hot girls + music = win Or you can just download one of the Best of Classical suites or something and try those. | ||

Rachmaninoff Prelude Op. 23 No. 5 Rachmaninov piano concerto n.2, I. Moderato (part1) Sibelius: Valse Triste -Really picks up towards the end. Mozart: Rondo -Can't get enough of 2:30 - 2:54. If you liked any of the songs, excluding the last, you might want to look into some early and mid-century Russian orchestra and piano pieces. | ||

Hary Janos Suite by Zoltan Kodaly and it features this really cool sounding instrument called the Cimbalom, listen! And everyone likes Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue And Chopin is awesome esp when Yundi Li plays it: | ||

Schubert- Impromptu Chopin- "Heroic" Polonaise Rubenstein appeals to me. He was one of the best pianists. | ||

People call it Requiem for a Dream because it was the theme for the movie with the same name, but i think you should show some respect to the writer at least. | ||
