What is your favorite

What is your favorite classical score? Mine has to be Tchaikovsky's 1812 overture

I love The Planets, I have every song on one album. It's extremely powerful.

I can't think of my absolute favorite right now, but I love "Trepak" and "Nutcracker March" by Tchaikovsky and "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik" by Mozart.

"Lux Aeterna" by Kronos Quartet.

It's not really classical, but close enough.

Probably be Mozart's "Requiem Mass", Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" or Vivaldi's "The Four Seasons", Winter in particular.

Oh Mozart and Beethoven most definately. I'd also add Debussy's Claire de Lune, Bach's Air and his Toccata & Fugue in D minor.

Wait, are you talking about that CD called "The Planets" where each song is a different classical piece representing a specific planet? I have that CD; I didn't know anyone else even knew it existed!

Another for Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D Minor.

"The Planets" is fucking awesome! We listened to that in grade school music class.

Yeah, composed by Gustav Holst, I thought it was really well known.

I always assumed that anyway.

Although they're both technically experimental groups using classical instrumentation -

"Black Angels" by Kronos Quartet
just about anything from Godspeed You Black Emperor!

I like Bach's organ works, especially the Toccata and Fugue in D minor and the Concerto No. 5 in D minor.

Some people already mentioned some good ones. Vivaldi's Winter, Betthoven's Moonlight Sonata, Chopin's Marcha Funebre and Nocture and Bach's Toccata and Fugue. I especially like it on violin played by Venessa Mae. I was just playing that yesterday morning. It's the only thing I can legally blast at nine o clock.

If we're talking about experimental groups:
Dark Sanctuary, and Grabesmond. More dark classical.
