No
Some
No

yes
love it
of course!

yes yes yes

We have a few classical stations around here...when I'm bored on long drives, I try and get my tires to match the pitch of the songs on tight turns.:-D

My fave: Mozart.

It's nice to listen to REAL talent that isn't driven by 40-somethings behind desks who want to seduce a bunch of prepubescent fools.

I'm not really into classical much. I'll listen to it if I don't really have a choice, but it wouldn't be something I would put in the CD player myself.

no I can't stand this stuff- I just don't have the patience to listen to a 17 minute piece:o

quickly looking through the CD rack,this week I have
Saint-Saens,carnival of the animals
Beethoven,Symphony no.5 opus 67
Adagio Karajan[a compilation ofAdagio pieces performed by the Berliner Philharmoniker]
Beethoven's Best[compilation]
Wagner,Ride of the Valkyries[God I wish I had a sound system in the car for this one]

They're all property of the City Library,I'll get some fresh ones next week............when I've burned copies of these


Joy of classical music,less copyright issues.;)

I like the classics......

I think listening to classical music requires a bit of taste... Amazing how I manage to ;)

You name it, I love it... My favs would be Bach, Vivaldi of course, Handel, and Haydn. I listen to Mozart, Schubert, Beethoven and others, but they're not my favourites.

Ray

see...classical isnt all that bad haha

i was just kidding too man..

I love classical music. My favorites are Bach, Mozart and Rossini. I'm teaching myself to play Fur Elise by Beethoven. The reason I like classical music so much is that it really touches my emotions and allows me to think. I like other music too (like current stuff, alternative and rock), but I can't think when I'm listening to that music.

can't have good classical without Paganini... suprising no one has mentioned him

Yeah that's good stuff too. I like Dvorak, Rachmanivov and Tchaikovsky, as well.

paganini is the ultimate in composers...

but many people dont know who he is and his awesome violin pieces..
