Not particularly. I'll stick to Mr. Miles Davis and Bill Evans.

yeah, i like it, when I relax I sometimes listen to it, it does make us smarter

#525038

I do kinda, I won't go and buy lots of CD's of classical artists and things like that, yet if there's a song like maybe on a video or whatever, i'll gladly listen to it. It's very peaceful music, which is good.

Those are my two favorites, they are so excellent.

#525041

Hmmm kinda like Vivaldi & Mozart,so yep.

#525043

Damn you're all a bunch of nerds LOL

#525044

Vivaldi, Dvorak, Shostakovich, Holst, Berlioz, Stravinsky, Bach, and Tchaikovsky all are rather good.

#525045

This gives me the hint that some forum members maybe are 50 years old or more. :)

And there I go too... in about 10 years more I'll be listening classic music too. :P

#525049

I'm a fan of classical music; and for any other classical music lover, I'd recommend you check out some NewAge music (Yanni, Kitaro etc.) :P

#525051

No lol I'm not over the age of 50, actually I'm a freshman in college, I'm not really a nerd parsay. I guess I began really liking and appreciating classical music when I took a class that was focused on the study of classical music. It really is very relaxing and interesting.

#525062

I listen to Mozart to help me concentrate sometimes:P If the stuff I'm learning are absolutely boring I'll put it on, don't know if it helps much but its worth a try lol And I'm 14 so... :D

#525063

hey man, im 15, i listen to it sometimes, what i listen to the most is reggae, bob marley songs, thatt kind

#525065

Stravinsky=God

hey, somebody smart at aqua-soft!

yeah, stravinsky, rimsky-korsokov, (early) prokofiev, janacek, bach, dvorak, respeghi, to name a few.

i didn't always like classical. when i was about 25 or 26 (yes, a looooong time ago!), a friend of mine sat me down, put headphones on me, and played me something i'd never heard of before, a little piece called 'the rite of spring' by some guy named stravinsky. changed my life.

#525067

classical music is great for studying to. its really soothing and relaxing ... and no im not 50+ and yes im a nerd (we all are nerds, after all we are on a tech site)

#525069

Heheh, I feel odd then. I usually study with electronic, repetitive music (without singer, else I engage with the letter of the song). This is the only way I know I can concentrate and study.

But maybe I'll give classical music a try. If it's useful for so many students, it may help me too.

Anyone with recommendations for a beginner? :)

#525072

I'm just as much a "beginner", but I like Mozart probably the best. Next Beethoven, and after him Bach I guess. Holst is also very good in my opinion.

#525073

I'm a classical guitar player and there are very interesting guitar pieces out there. Whoever wants to exchange music or tab just pm me.

#525075

this is a tough one. i think most people would point you towards mozart, bach, beethoven. it depends on what your aesthetic is: do you like brittany spears? start with mozart. do you like frank zappa? start with stravinsky. do you like enya? start with debussy. do you like hip-hop? there's no hope for you. :)

Like Santana? He's awesome but I don't know many classical guitar artists. My real music taste is like the Rolling Stones, Beatles, Hendrix, Dylan, Led Zeppelin, the doors and stuff. What classic rock artists do you recommend?

#525079

Yeah.

@Kawsquared: And I like my Mr. Davis and Mr. Evans, too. :P

It changed my life too, and I was the same age as you. did you listened "Transfigurated Night" by Schönberg? I'm pretty sure you did, but if you didn't, well... do it. there is a word (that I can't recall) that defines what I feel when I listen this songs but I think one word is not enough...

I listen all kinds of music though (quoting Futurama "from A.A. Milne to Z.Z. Top" :P ), I am a singer and try to compose little classical pieces but without any good results.

@matonga

I'm trying to think you weren't close enough (I'm 30)

as you can see I don't speak english, sorry about that.

#525095

The thread is about classical music not about classic rock.... although I play electric guitar as well I wanted to point out there is a great repertoire of great classical music for classical guitar.... here is one impressive performance>>>

#525212

Yeah.

@Kawsquared: And I like my Mr. Davis and Mr. Evans, too. :P

Jazz is what it's all about.
