Brahms piano quintet in F minor's third movement is amazingly intense. Schumann also has alot of emotional intensity in his works.

Antonin Dvorak

I quite like John Williams stuff. He wrote songs for the 6 Star Wars films, Indiana Jones etc.

yeh but thats not really classical, thats film music, which is like pop classical although those soundtracks are cool.
i've heard that john williams has done some serious classical works and are supposed to be quite good. never heard it though.

Closest i've come to "heavy" classical is Respighi - St. Michael Archangel.

Give him a break, he's American!

Mahler's 8th, is a massive piece of work. The Symphony of A Thousand it is so nicknamed.

Schostakovich would be an excellent choice; perhaps sym 7? Of course Stravinsky's Rite of Spring, Tchaikovsky is always inspiring, Beethoven's no 5' and 7. Anything by Wagner is rather grandiose, and thus I suppose heavy.

Good classical:

Antonio Lucio Vivaldi
Ludwig van Beethoven
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky
Sergei Vasilievich Rachmaninoff
George Frideric Handel
Louis Hector Berlioz

I know some more but I can't remember it at the moment.

Penderecki - Threnody for the Victims of Hiroshima

that is one scary piece, really makes you think about the worse things.
good one

Penderecki - Threnody for the Victims of Hiroshima

His (Pendercki) St. Luke's Passion is a wondrous work; perhaps the best piece of modern classical in my opinion.

 

[Phrozenspite]

I'll second Paganini, Holst, and Dvorak... I'll also suggest Brahms and Wagner

 

[DumbAss]

Beethoven was the tortured metal god of his time.
