Space Cadet Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Smetna - The Moldau Holst - The Planets My dad heard me listening to the piano solo in Muse's Butterflies and Hurricanes recently and dug out some Rachmaninov- really like it. And there's this one movement in one of Beethoven's symphonies that I like. It sounds really different from everything around it. Wish I could remember what it was. Edit: I found it: Beethoven's 7th Symphony, 2nd movement. Very dark, very powerful, and very beautiful... I still can't believe the guy heard all this music in his head! Oh, and one of the best concerts I've ever seen (modern or classical) was a production of Handel's Messiah- you really can't appreciate how much depth his style of music has until you hear it live.

Oh, Dad can't stand that I listen to any form of rock music at all- I think he was just happy to find something classical (well, romantic actually) to distract me with. I think he just recognized what piece the solo was taken from, or the style at least. Heh... the chorus in space dementia is straight out of a Rachmaniniov piece too...

Lance Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Thanks for bumping this thread ClearAsCrystal! I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one that rocks out to classical music from time to time. My favorite classical piece as of lately is, "Johann Pachelbel - Canon in D major" http://rapidshare.de/files/24543211/Johann_Pachelbel_-_Canon_in_D_major.mp3.html This chord progression has stood the test of time for over three hundred years. Check out this site if you have time. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pachelbel%27s_Canon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
