I do not know much classical music, but recently I heard a very heavy and fast version of Beethoven's fifth symphony and it made me realize how heavy classical music can be. And it can also be dark, and disturbing, which are some of my favorite attributes in a composition (I guess that's why I am a metalhead). Does anybody have any suggestion about classical pieces sharing these qualities (without being dissonant)? Some of the ones I know are:
Berlioz-Symphonie Fantastique (particularly the final movement), and the second movement of the Requiem
Vivaldi-Summer from the Four Seasons
Dvorak-New World Symphony (final movement)
Beethoven-Ninth (second, and final movements), and Fifth (first, and third movements).
Thanks
