Re: Not a fan of classical music.

Just to put a more modern slant on "Classical Music"...

Always been a fan of Carl Orff

YouTube - Carl Orff: Carmina Burana

Carmina Burana from 1937, recognisable from the film Excalibur.

and at the opposite end of the scale from Schulwerk Vol1 - Musica Poetica
(Basically music for Children!)

YouTube - Carl Orff - Gassenhauer

Again you might recognise it from Terrence Malicks Badlands...But dont confuse it with Hans Zimmers "Your so Cool" from the film True Romance.

Like all things, like this, that can lead to more.

Re: Not a fan of classical music.

If I was Andrea I'd be telling Brightman to stop fucking pawing me during the performance as well. Those hands have been on Andrew Lloyd Webber's cock.

Brings a tear to my eye. Very powerful voice and beautiful music;
YouTube - Pavarotti - Nessun Dorma

Or this version with a choir and the other two boyo's;

And a bit of Jerusalem to compliment it all;

I don't like that song much. Not because it isn't classical, I just don't.

It's true that Mozart could be said to have been a populist. Difference is, he's arguably the biggest musical genius to set foot on our planet. There endeth the comparison.

Re: Not a fan of classical music.

I did an extra O level in 'History and Appreciation of Classical Music' way back when for a bit of a dare/bet. It really opened my eyes to lots of what is out there, and upon reflection was an important part of my education.

I'm certainly no expert, but I have a very basic working knowledge. The main thing is finding stuff you like and appreciating what's going on.

Related to this I've been playing different pieces of music to our 4 year old daughter, since she started to identify/try to identify different instruments she heard being played. On a personal note, I've noticed that she has regressed a bit in some of the things we were doing since she's been taking medication for epilepsy, but I have noticed her musical appreciation come on leaps and bounds.

Re: Not a fan of classical music.

Yah. This kills me. You need to listen to it with decent sound though. It's 19Mb and lasts for nearly thirteen minutes. Worth every second.
