yes, lots.

Particularly handel, mozart and bach. Bach because of the astonishing mathematical complexity of his work.

Word.

He is the one that people are still trying to find little cool things he did with his music, right? My music teacher was talking about him and Beethoven, but I can't really remember which one did all the complex stuff with their music.

Yes, to question.

Bach, among other people, they're still interpretting.

There's a huge body of theories as to why he did what he did when he did it.

actually, lots of times I'd rather listen to something good in the orchestral vein than pop or rock music

I know it doesn't count as 'proper' classical muci, but the LOTR soundtrack albums are effortlessly beautiful.

It counts.

Well, in my opinion, it counts. The orchestral scores to the LOTR movies are contemporary music, but still in the classical vain...If they don't count, neither does most of the Boston Philharmonic...

I listen to it on a pretty regular basis...

Especially when my courseloads revolve around such pieces...

Though usually on my Discman on headphones, because my GF and almost everyone I know dislikes classical in general.

The funniest part of that is that my music instructors probably think of me more as a Mansonite or metal-head. One of 'em was even suprised I collect Thelonius Monk (Jazz) CDs.

Used to play primarily classical pieces, though I switched to primarily blues/swing/big band/latin pieces...I'm more into jazz and blues...

Still, classical fucking rocks.

I like a lot of the old Christian hymns.

Piano pieces.

The main reason I switched was the total lack of trombone parts in classical pieces. The only skill you need as a classical tombonist is the ability to count large numbers of rests.

Hell yes. I have a bunch of classical/baroque/romantic era compilation discs, always awesome to chill out too. Plus I have some discs leftover from my last semester of college with some medeival music and whatnot - Gregorian chant is the man.

And harpsichords are the best instrument ever. Bach's Little Prelude \m/

Like Funky, I don't know much about classical, but I love it anyway. I actually, from time to time, listen to the classical programs on my local public radio station when I'm driving. It's very relaxing.

One of the only pieces I know by name (and ADORE) is Chopin's "Revolutionary Etude." I used to have that on my computer, but I had it in "My Shared Folder" and when I deleted KaZaA from my computer, I forgot to move the files from that folder to something else and lost it.
