Classical Music Suggestions

[cantthinkofanything]

Over the past few years I've amassed a pretty extensive collection of classical music from Albéniz to Zimmerman (about 18,000 pieces)...

You know you have it bad when you seek out multiple versions of your favorite pieces and know the different Orchestras and the Conductors by name...

What did you think of 66 Sensual Classics?

What did you think of 66 Sensual Classics?

Yeah I ran across that offer as well... I didn't buy the album as cheap as it was because I already owned every single one of the album's tracks (all except for one, which I purchased individually)...

They included some of the following:

Bach
Beethoven
Brahms
Chopin
Debussy
Handel
Haydn
Liszt
Mendelssohn
Mozart
Scarlatti
Schubert
Schumann
Tchaikovsky
Vivaldi

Every composer on that list is a "Great"...

But I would probably add:

Isaac Albéniz
Vincenzo Bellini
Hector Berlioz
Georges Bizet
Anton Bruckner
Aaron Copland
Manuel de Falla
Antonin Dvořák
Sir Edward Elgar
George Enescu
Gabriel Fauré
César Franck
Charles Gounod
Alexander Glazunov
Edvard Grieg
Gustav Mahler
Niccolò Paganini
Sergei Prokofiev
Giacomo Puccini
Sergei Rachmaninov
Maurice Ravel
Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov
Ottorino Respighi
Joaquín Rodrigo
Juventino Rosas
Gioachino Rossini
Camille Saint-Saëns
Dmitri Shostakovich
Jean Sibelius
Bedrich Smetana
Richard Strauss
Johann Strauss II.

Yeah.... Seeing how this thread was started back in 2005, I don't see how your argument has any merit whatsoever...

Why do you care if the compilation of classical music happens to be a hobby of mine...???
