No Classical Music Fans?
-
I too love classical music. I sing in a large symphonic choir and it's the most amazing feeling in the world being part of something so huge. But I also love the intimacy of chamber music. I am learning to play the clarinet and my ambition is to one day be able to play stuff like the Mozart or Brahms quintets or the Saint-Saens sonata.
I love Brahms chamber music. (Much different from chamber pot music
). The piano quintet is also very great, but anything Brahms wrote involving clarinet is delicious. Saint Saens best work is also his chamber stuff. I love Faure's contribution in the field also. I guess Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert are taken for granted ;). Also admire Schumann's trios, quartets and the quintet. Rachmaninov wrote some fine chamber works which probably don't get the recognition they are due. -
A great youtube playlist: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hl-ZPKjlzZw
This is an amazing piece: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuJ69_DBnSU
I could go on about Scriabin, Mussorgsky, Magnard, Schumann's piano music, but I'd bore you

I love classical music
my favourite is probably not "classical " per say
but is Delius. -
This thread is a very broad church, all are welcome. But I think Delius would fall into anyone's 'classical' definition. That is for music, not the period
-
Classical can mean different things according to context. It certainly means different things in a Greek or Roman context, or in a Carnatic or Hindustani context, for instance. As cannonmc says, Delius is certainly within the purview of what most people would consider classical music. Am actually listening to (and playing) quite a deal of Rachmaninov lately. This is my slight obsession of the moment:
But am actually listening to this piece atm :

Well, I loved Tori Amos's album with classical music. Thanks to that, I like some of Satie's work.
But I listen to Max Richter. Not classical, but neoclassical
