Keep 'em coming everyone. In order to broaden my classical horizon I'm going to listen through everything posted in this thread.

I know and remember this movement VERY WELL!!!

I just had to get my cello out, download the public domain sheet music and play it with the link. It had to be done...

my personal favorite has always been Pachelbel's Canon



^_^

Now this is TRULY a classic, appears in so many places in the media... but most people are only familiar with this segment of the piece...





*Hums the "Can Can" tune*

---

One of the great Piano Concerto's to be played around concert halls all around the world!!!

Oh Beyhan! I haven't heard Tchaikovsky's 4th Symphony in ages! It was one of the first pieces I played with the orchestra, it brings back very fond memories. The string theme at 1:37 (and various other places) is luush.

Oh dude I have a similar story... But it wasn't the first. Sooo many good memories. The third movement is the best!!





And the coda in the 4th Movement. Heck, I think that is the best code he ever wrote!





Here is a link to the score. Don't worry, his work is public domain now

I had a bit of free time today so I spent some time listening to everything posted here. There's a lot of great stuff. I have to say Arvo Pärt's Fratres is absolutely amazing. Everyone should listen to it right now (Beyhan's first post). Gnossienne No. 3 is pretty awesome too.

Aww cheers buddy. It really is such an awesome piece of music. And to think it was originally composed in 1977!!!!

Something else that has caught my eye in my nostalgic trip is Fêtes from Debussy's Noctures No. 2

I'd forgotten about this thread. How about some stormy music?
