any fans of either? does anyone know any good operah or classical music?

:idea2: Sure! I recommend you George Bizet for opera. He composed a great one called Les Pêcheurs de Perles (The Pearl Fishers). And of course Carmen :smug:

awesome. thanks for the help. ill check him out. and Carmen aswell. :)

Opera - or OPRAH?? :huh:

^fuck, thats what i thought :lol:

I know a very very good monumental opera:The Carmina Burana.It soooo great,and i've got nothing against classical music.It has more niveau than the music often played on tv!

Will this do?? :P

Uh,I think we've got a real oprah fan here :P

i like grieg, schubert, beethoven. carmina burana is awsome. :D and pachellbel canon. :idea2:

I admire Beethoven because he didn' hear anything and although that he wrote these masterpieces!

yes i like his music a lot. ;)

^ Yes, he used to cut the legs of his Piano off so he could hear the vibrations in the floor.

 

Anyway, I like Vivaldi's Four Seasons, pure masterpiece.

Can't stand opera.

Nothing wrong with classical though...

lol yeah i spelled it wrong. sorry.

if you want to hear reallya nice classical music then listen chopin.......he is amazing...........so listen it........by the way i hate operas.i think operas are boring.but this is my opinion.

I'm a fan of Rachmaninov and Stravinsky and Moussorgsky and all those Russian dudes.

I would recommend you listen to Mozart because his music is phenomenal! Lately I've been obsessed with his opera "The Magic Flute", but particularly a solo in the piece called "Queen of the Night". Great stuff :)

i love classical music... :)

Dukas - The Sorcerer's Apprentice

Morgenstimmung-?

Schwanensee-Tschaikowsky(?)

There was this piece of music that I've always liked but I can't remember who composed it. He was Russian, and the piece was called Night On The Lonely Mountain.

 

It was in the first Fantasia film. The one with the mountain that becomes the Devil :confused:

I'm amazed nobody's mentioned Richard Clayderman!! :P

I'm amazed nobody's mentioned Richard Clayderman!! :P

 

Who is that?

Try this.

 

With his lush, sophisticated, instrumental, approach to pop music, Richard Clayderman (born: Phillipe Pages) is, according to The Guinness Book of World Records, "the most successful pianist in the world." Clayderman's albums routinely sell millions of copies and his...
