I have a moderately extraordinary take in this field. The time period "Classic" or "Classical" in connection with tune could also be a little overused. It has been carried out to indicate quite a lot of style of different varieties of tune, adding Country, Rock and Jazz. I believe of it as making use of to tune that's of a antique and kind marked via excellence. Many classical composers created their tune lengthy after Beethoven, Bach, or the opposite composers most likely viewed as classical. For instance, an American composer whose paintings has been viewed classical is Gershwin, who composed normally within the first part of the 20 th Century. An option time period I like is "Great Music." The hindrance is that virtually any time period we use will also be stretched or reduced in size consistent with a man or woman's tastes. I believe we ought to categorize tune--I have no idea another approach to categorise it--however keep in mind that the attention (or ear) of the beholder can have plenty to do with how the kinds are perceived. We could good do greater to type tune out via classes akin to opera and symphonic, however I might believe this might create a threat of except a few very beneficial tune. An intriguing query. I'll be considering it for a even as.

Dude. Listen to Carmina Burana by Carl Orff beginning to end. It starts out with the tune everyone knows, O Fortuna, but that is DEFINITELY not the best part. After that it immediately drops into a few of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard in my life.

When I started purposely listening to classical music, I was in 10th grade and would go the library to listen to Beethoven on LP (I'm not THAT old! This was the early 80's!) and I was hooked. From Beethoven, I moved on to his teacher, Josef Haydn and his 104 symphonies, his brother Michael, and Mozart. I subscribed to the radio guide for my local classical station in Philadelphia (WFLN---boy do I miss that!) and started recording as much as I could on cassette.



After going through the "heavy hitters" of the Classical era, I started on the Baroque era with Bach and Vivaldi and have been a lifelong Baroque fan. I'm a computer programmer/mathematician professionally, and feel very comfortable with the mathematical precision of Baroque music, especially Bach's fugues.



As with anything in life, your tastes change as you get older. I've since moved forward from Beethoven to Schubert, Mendelssohn, Brahms, Schumann, Bruckner, Mahler, Saint-Saƫns, Tchaikovsky, and Rachmaninoff among others.



Frankly, for me, it depends on my mood as to what I'll listen to. I've amassed over 700 CD's over the years and have transferred everything into iTunes now and continue to download to my computer and iPod. I have something in the neighborhood of 11,000 tracks on iTunes now, about 29 continuous days of listening pleasure and the vast majority is classical. I do like some pop music--having recently discovered Maroon Five of all things! I also like new age music as well, especially Enya and I'm a huge Beatles fan.

Well you start your question by relating to a piece of music that isn't classical. (nor is it a song). So it is difficult to know where to go from there. There are thousands of great classical masterpieces and they are all acknowledged and well documented... see any collection of great classical music on amazon.

Start with just about anything by Beethoven, Mozart and Bach... you'll figure out what you like best and go from there.
