Post 'em, and why.

Rodrigo - Concierto de Aranjuez

This 10:28 song is a wonderful masterpiece, combining flamenco guitar with wonderful dramatic Spanish strings. I re-discovered it on my "Decaf Classics" CD, and have fallen in love with this beautiful piece of work.

Hungarian Dance no. 5

Just a badass song. It's been so long since I've heard it.

I suggest giving it a listen.

------------------
There is no signature

Violin Concerto, No. 3: "Strassburg" K. 216, 3rd Movement

Adagio from Concerto Grosso Op. 6, No. 8 in G Minor

Boccherini la Musica Notturna Delle Strade Di Madrid No. 6, Op. 30

These aren't my top top favorites, however they are up there in the favorites... These songs are awesome, just awesome violin music. I first discovered these songs in Master and Commander, and I just love them

Other great songs are:

Ludwig van Beethoven - Piano Concerto No.5 E-flat Major, "Emperor"

Ludwig van Beethoven - Violin Concerto D Major

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - Missa solemnis in C minor, "Waisenhaus"

Does John Williams classify as classical?

Whatever. Here are my favs:

Korsakov: Shaharazhad (sp?)
Tchaikovsky: March Slav
Hungarian Dance
also that Russian Easter overture is pretty awsome.

Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries". Never go to war without it.

Ride of the Valkyries, lots of Howard Shore, Beethoven's 9th.

Ride of the Valkyres, Beethoven's 9, Funeral Music for Queen Mary (the synthesizer version is better though)

Camille Saint-Saëns.

His other music is good too.

MadQuack has a signature.

Yep, that is a great piece. Who was the guitarist? You listened through the whole piece? Probably not likely, cause compilations like that almost always only select the second part (the adagio). Only considering the adagio, my favorite part is when the orchestra shuts up, and the guitarist plays this great bass line melody.

Overall, my favorite part is the first. See if you can get a complete version, maybe by Paco de Lucia, Alexandre Lagoya, Julian Bream, Pepe Romero, ... all great guitarists, all with different interpretations.

[Nevermind. Let us delete our own posts, damn it.]

Rimsky Korsakov, The Flight Of The Bumblebee

I love how the complete lack of tonal quality is what the song revolves around. it's more about the feeling of the flurry of notes than the notes themselves. I rarely see chromatism used in such a brilliant way.

Wake up, rise and shine, Gotta take another pint, Dig heads and watch out for the night.

Virtually anything by James Horner, John Williams, Hans Zimmer, and Howard Shore. I've been downloading soundtracks like a madman lately, as you may have guessed. Tis great study music. The musicians of old have some great stuff, but they'd be obvious choices.
