Katie E, It's not coming through on my computer speakers and i know my speakers work.

 

[Katie H]

It did when I first posted but, since then, the audio has been disabled. Something about authorization. Sorry. Try to do a Google or YouTube search for Claire de Lune. It's such a beautiful piece of music!!!

 

[lifesaver]

I too love classical

 

[roadfix]

Sometimes when no one's home I would just lay flat, sprawled out on the living room floor and blast my stereo with Beethoven's 9th Symphony and imagine I'm in a concert hall.

 

[lifesaver]

Hmmm! for some reason i'm having a problem with all listed

 

[lifesaver]

OH! but thanks anyway

I studied classical music from the time I was old enough to sit on a piano bench. When I was 13, I also began taking voice lessons.

My voice is gone and I can no longer play, but I can still listen.

Pavarotti can still make me cry.

I love classical music. There was a TV offering for "The Most Relaxing Classical Music" two CDs and on a whim I bought it. It's addictive and I listen to them all the time when I piece a quilt. They are wonderful! Hope you can still find them!

 

[texasgirl]

I am so excited!! I'm getting most of these from Itunes. There is one, Pachelbels Canon in Dmajor. It sounds like This night from the Mormon Tabernacle Choir!!

Try Mozart sonatas. They're my favorite.

Being a French hornist for most of my life, I'm pretty indebted to classical music.

Now, I'm not talking about "favorites" per se, here, but what really are stress reducers (research bears me out). Mozart wins, hands down. and not just his piano music, but also his symphonies -- most notably the 40th -- and Eine Kleine Nachtmusik.

The last two are recommended for relaxing migraine sufferers. and I can attest that altho I don't get migraines, and I get headaches rarely, Mozart removes them more rapidly than any over the counter medication.

Now, if I'm talking about my favorite Mozart, that would be the 4 horn concerti (surprise, surprise! ) and the 40th Symphony.

If any of you haven't done so I highly recommend watching the movie Amadeus. The film is about Mozart and it won Best Picture among several other awards several years ago.

Don't know if its technically considered "classical" but when I'm stressed I enjoy the soothing sounds of the "Witches in bikinis" song "Party like a Chimpanzee"

 

[PieSusan]

Mozart is very happy music and easy to listen to.

 

[PieSusan]

Rimsky-Korsakov: Scheherazade was something I adored as a child. It is fun.

This is more modern but still fantastic:
George Gershwin – Rhapsody in Blue

I love that, but I prefer his piano concerto. American in Paris is not chopped liver, either.
