Classical Music

[bonfire89]

Im looking for some classical music.

The type/mood/feeling like with the Lord of the rings sound track or Craddle of Filth's cover of fear of the dark.

Any sugestions?


Thanks!!

 

[Donnie Darko]

Try the Braveheart them and the theme from Requiem For a Dream. Also try Beethovens Moonlight Sonata

 

[speed]

Mood- hm, well Barbers Adagio for Strings comes to mind. I dont really understand what you are asking for- movie soundtracks or what?

 

[bonfire89]

heh yeah. I should have added "Moonlight Sonota" to the description of what I am looking for, An I got the requium for a dream stuff. heh, thats a good one.. But Ill try the braveheart theme.. thanks

Even for other music I'm looking for (your name reminded me). Gary Jules - Mad world. Thats a good one too.

 

[bonfire89]

not movie sound tracks. Just artists, or artists and song titles

 

[eternalhours]

I really love soundtracks to films - hoping to get the soundtracks to a few films soon. Enemy at the Gates has good orchestral music if that helps at all.

Hector Berlioz's Symphonie Fantastique
Saint Saens's Danse Macabre
Giuseppe Verdi's Requiem

i haven't heard any of the things in the original post, but i feel like saying that i've been listening to berwald's symphonies of late, and i find him to be very underrated.

 

[snow_like_ash]

Orff
Wagner
Mozart
Brahms
Beethoven
Handel
Barber (esp. Adagio for Strings)

^my favorites

 

[abrasiverock]

vivaldi, Rachmaninoff, Stravinsky

 

[Kate Bush Rules!]

Try out my favourite Jean Sibelius, like []The Oceanides[/i] or Finlandia.

I'm not into classical music. But i do listen to some neo-classical. Yngwie Malmsteen is a neo-classical god, listen to some of his stuff.

 

[Korsrol]

Check out some stuff by Henryk Gorecki, some good pieces under his name

 

[Caelum Adustum]

Henryk Górecki's Symphony No. 3 is absolute genius.
Almost everything by Franz Schubert is great.
Sergey Rakhmaninov's "Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom, Op. 31" is good too.

I like the Russian composers like Rachmaninoff and Rimsky-Korsakov.


Bryant (sorry for the edit... I misplet Korsakov. Hell it might still not be spelled right)

yeh that gorecki symphony is great, 3 pieces in the old style is another great piece by gorecki, very sad and 2 movement as a cool rythm section...

 

[Mormagil]

Hector Berlioz's Symphonie Fantastique

YES! Symphonie Fantastique is wonderful, and I saw Le Damnation de Faust (also Berlioz) performed by the Dayton Philharmonic and a huge choir last year, that was some good stuff too.

You can't go wrong with Wagner or Grieg, either.

 

[FauxPerspicacity]

Bartok-Concerto for Orchestra
Schubert-String Quartets
yes indeed Berlioz-Symphony Fantastique
