  • What are your favorite pieces of classical music? If its from a movie, what movie? =]

  • Answer:

    Ravel's Bolero for sure. If I play just 5 minutes of it, I can't help but listen to the entire song, all the way up to the deafening crescendo. Other favorites: Rhapsody in Blue (Gershwin) G Major Concerto (Ravel) Pictures at an Exhibition (Mussorgsky) Thus Spoke Zarathustra (R. Strauss) Firebird Suite (Stravinsky)

Heh, I don't think you'll agree with me, but I personally feel that Beethoven has composed the best classical music the world has ever known. Favorites: Pathetique Sonata (all movements) Moonlight Sonata (all movements) I also enjoy Mozart's Fanatasies and Fugues, and some of his other late works.

Well, I like anything by Bach, Handel, and Scarlatti but then again, they were composers from the baroque era.
