Default Re: Help me find good classical music, please.

yeah...there are a million different periods of "classical" music.

most of what i like is late 19th or 20th century:

Stravinsky- "Rite of Spring," "Firebird," "Petrushka." (his classic early ballets). also "Agon," "Symphony of Psalms" "Threni," "L'histoire du Soldat" and most anything else.

Debussy- String Quartets, "La Mer," and all of his piano music.

Satie- pretty much anything

Bartok- string quartets, "Music for Strings, Percussion, and Celeste,"

Stockhausen- Helicopter Quartet, anything from "Licht."

more traditional "classical" stuff:

anything from J.S. Bach, Beethoven quartets opus 131-135 and symphonies 3-9. berlioz "symphonie fantastique."
