Favorite Classical Songs

I really love slow emotional classical songs.. Any recommendations

Posted by Alexan on Mar-13-2005 09:42:

I listen mostly to modern composers who made really fast stuff but here are some that come to mind...

Leo Delibes - Lakme
Ludwig Van Beethoven - Fur Elise
Ludwig Van Beethoven - Moonlight Sonata
Johann Pachelbel - Canon In D (Try to find one played with flute & piano, it's simply beautiful)
Johan Sebastian Bach - Tocatta En Fugue
Samuel Barber - Adagio For Strings
Sergei Rahcmaninov - Rhapsody On A Them Of Pagannini (My favourite piece ever)

i'm fond of Igor Stravinsky's Firebird suite. it's not exactly slow but it's a good classical tune.

far too many to list, as i listen to classical 50% of my day...

how i get my friends into classical is through score composers(i.e. hans zimmer, Bernard Herrmann)

most of what has already been mention'd is superb.
