to those who listen to classical music

I absolutely love Handel's Largo for Xerxes.

Thing is, I know absolutely nothing of classical music.

Could someone recommend me tunes similar in beauty? I love beautiful classical. thanky

I dont know much about Classical, but most of Digital Witchcraft's tunes do have a clasical touch to them, you can feel it as you listen

Check out Ned Shepperd's collab. with Sultan too, to form "Jiva" whose music is a fine blend of the more classical part of Digital Witchcraft with Sultan's melodies.

Also check out D:Facto - Breaks EP 2 which has a fine classical feel all over it. And you might like Kada Sarva - Cold Lake ...that's sort of a minimalictic tune.....with some psy influences...it's lovely

I believe he wanted recommendations for classical music...

My favorite symphony is Beethoven's number 9.

Check out movie scores as well. Lately, I've been playing the OST from "Enemy At The Gates" a lot.

hmm Danny Elfman, Jeremy Soule, Thomas Newman, and some other composers have great music for movies and games and such.. check em out

Hmmm,

Well I like Pachelbel Canon it's as classic as classic can get. Isao Tomita did a great remix of it back in 89 I think called "Canon of the three stars" which is worth checking out if you can find it.

Other than that I also like Gymnopedie which is another one you should instantly recognize when you hear. For you Star Trek fans it was the song that Picard had playing on the episode where he was going to self destruct the ship (granted that situation might have occured in a few episodes)

j00 have to listen Edvard Grig (sp check) - In The Cave Of The Mountain King

OWNAGE.

Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" owns!

I haven't heard the one you mentioned, but Joaquin Rodrigo - Concierto de Aranjuez (Adagio) is beautiful. Actually listen to the whole thing, they're 3 pieces.
But only listen to it with Narciso Yepes on guitar, he's my favorite

Man that is the shiz. Its funny how so many peeps who like trance have some knowledge (even if it means just listening) of classical...

Holst-The Planets

This group of songs are nsome of the most beautiful peices of music I have heard. I suggest Mercury , Mars, and Neptune. These tracks are golden.

the first 53 bars of Beethoven's 6th Symphony

dvorak's new world is my fav atm

stravinsky's right of spring is nice as well.

Yes, sorry

Vladimir Horowitz playing Scriabin's Etude No. 12, Op. 8 in D-sharp minor, is incredible.

JOO need to use google. its Grieg - in the hall of the mountain king. its part of an opera by grieg, forget the name but its quite good.

now thats OWNAGE!! he he he

as for more handel like classical. try handels water music from his great symphony Messiah. you can listen to the entirety of messiah but be prepared to sit down in one place for 6 or 7 hours.... its a long one. tchaikovsky trepak is one of my personal favorites, from the nutcracker suite. also i belive it is a JS Bach piece named jesu, joy of mens desire which is a great track. i think my cd is mislabled. mozart's requiem, second symphony or his salzburg symphony are also very very good as far as non symphonic classical goes, fredderick chopin has beautiful piano concertos. nocturne in B major is on of my favorites. o and mozart's symphony 25. its a keeper too..... thats all for now.. ill post again if i think of any more

my favorite classical tunes:

Paganini - Liszt
Mozart - Symphony No. 25
Mozart - Fantasy in D minor
Beethoven - Moonlight Sonata
Beethoven - 7th Symphony
Beethoven - 9th symphony
Bach - Tocatta de Fugue
Bach - Minuet in G
Grieg - In the Hall of the Mountain King

+1

I'd also suggest Vanessa Mae's classical stuff. She uses electric violin and gives it a nice touch to the music.

Swan Lake is my personal fav.
