The Classical Music Thread

I realized today that, although I love classical music, I hardly have any of it on my computer. So I was wondering if anyone would like to share their favorite pieces?

Here are a couple obvious choices:

Johann Pachelbel's Canon in D:
Carl Orff's "Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi":

:lol: why you mad tho?


I think I'm on the edge of sounding like some know-it all asshole on Rick Rubin so I'm tryin not to answer every thread, but there's definately a lot of classical shit that needs checking out, from the classics to modern atonal shit like Schoenberg and minimalist stuff like Phillip Glass and John Cage.

For anyone who wants to get into it, all those classics CD collections are good, they are mad cheap and cover every period very well, as far as most influential and important composers are concerned.
