Ravels Radical Rivalry Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 I would say that I am most currently in love with Verdi's Requiem. Quote
Zepoha Heampe Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 Shostakovich 13 (Babi Yar Symphony). Magnificent! :D Quote
rickmiller Posted July 11, 2009 Posted July 11, 2009 The Firebird (Suite from 1947) - Stravinsky Quote
SYS65 Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 Verdi's Requiem. It's absolutely stunning. I've been switching between that and Orff's Carmina Burana, which is equally as stunning. I wouldn't say the Verdi Requiem is as "stunning" as Carmina Burana ....Buy I won't argue... If you like those I think you will like Trionfo di Afrodite also by Orff .... Really pity "Carmina Burana" is the only one known .... there also "Catulli Carmina" "Der Mond" and "Die Kluge" .... ... and others but I haven't been able to get those Quote
Sherief Abraham Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 Schumann's 4th and Tchaikovsky's manfred Quote
Gardener Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 Why of all Schumann symphonies the fourth? :( Quote
HeckelphoneNYC Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 I have an idea in my head... that I cannot get out... AND I now love Xenakis's XAS piece :wub: Quote
Qmwne235 Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 Stravinsky's Tango. Delicious. Also Shostakovich Cello Concerto No. 2, Mvmt. 2. Quote
bridgesandballoons Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 The Well Tuned Piano by LaMonte Young and People Got a Lotta Nerve by Neko Case Quote
dude Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 Kalinnikov's symphonies... The two of them... I just fell in love :D Quote
Romanticist Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 Persepolis by Xenakis.. really awesome piece of electronic music imo. I am also digging the soundtrack from I, Robot composed by Mark Beltrami.. aaaaand 2 Sketches based on Indian Themes by Charles Griffes. All lovely pieces of music. Quote
Lisztian Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 My favorite piece of music right now, and of all time is Liszt's Transcendental Etude no.4 "Mazeppa". In my opinion, it's one of the most underrated pieces of music ever. It's very artistic, Liszt making leaps over the keyboard making the illusion of a horse galloping. The melody made by octaves is very nice as well, Berezovsky and Fredy Kempf or Lazar Berman plays it the best I think. Check it out : Quote
A. Tell Reial Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 My favorites are Saint-Saens' first cello sonata and concerto, his Marche Heroique, then Shostakovich's 8th quartet, the Malaguena from Lecuona's Andalusia Suite, L'egiptienne from Rameau's suite in g minor, and Mendelssohn's String Symphony No. 10 is my all time favorite.

Gamma Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 Pretty much all of Schumann's Carnival Op.9 and then some of Liszt's Totentanz played by Marc-Andre Hamelin. Quote
Voce Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 Right now, my favorite piece from the classical realm is Beethoven's "Gro Quote

Yachar Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 The first 12 or so seconds of this piece are my favorite notes at the moment. I even have it as my ring tone from now on. Quote
maestro267 Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 Right now, I'm loving Bernstein's MASS. One of the most eclectic pieces of music out there. Quote
Qmwne235 Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 Stravinsky's Concertino for string quartet Wolf's Italian Serenade for string quartet Dutilleux's Ainsi la Nuit (again, for string quartet) Quote
