Best Classical Music!

<p>Moonlight Sonata - Beethoven, String Quartet in F - Ravel, Symphony No. 8 in B minor Unfinished 1st Mov't - Shubert, Symphony No. 6 Pathetique - Tchaikovsky, Rhapsody in Blue - George Gershwin and I can't remember anymore off the top of my head.</p>

<p>Whoa, frecklybeckly-- what wienawski do you mean, and which s-s vln concerto? are you talking about the s-s intro+rondo cappricciosso? I see the similarity there (sort of), but wienawski 2 and st-saens 3 are completely opposite!</p>

<p>wienawski 2, saen sens 3 in b. the very beginning of both (the violin parts) are extremely similar. i would sing it for you, but alas - we are merely cyber puppets. IM me - sammigrl8</p>

<p>I <3 Tchaikovsky</p>

<p>guys you can check out our posts on the columbia page too... quite a discussion going on there too, albeit under the thread for performance major at columbia lol</p>

i'm pretty diverse in my taste for classical music, but...Romantic music is the best.</p>

<p>oh and for great violinists, i'm shocked you people have failed to mention Eugene Ysaye.</p>

<p>his sonata's are amazing technical competitions, but i hardly consider him within the leagues of milstein, szeryng, or even kreisler</p>

<p>how can you say that?????? have you heard him play the third movement of mendelssohn? It's freakened amazing.</p>

<p>I have a weakness for Rachmaninoff and Chopin. </p>

<p>Leo Delibes' "Lakme" is transcendental.</p>

<p>Lakme is incredible.</p>

<p>the correct question is... have you heard me play 3rd mvt of mendelssohn? lol</p>
