Dude! First off, Tchaikovsky is my favorite classical artist. The 1812 Overture is one of the coolest songs ever. :mrgreen: Pick up one of his "greatest hits" albums (if you don't already have one)... definitely worth it.

And, I used to know how to play Marche Slave! We played it in band. We used to play some cool stuff in band. Too bad the teacher was a drunken nut, so I had to quit before high school, cos I just couldn't take her anymore. :neutral:

Oh yeah, if you're wondering, I played flute. :) I miss it, actually. Only instrument I've ever known how to play. I picked one up in a music store a few months ago... still remembered a few notes, but that's about it. If I got a new one, I'd probably learn again quick, though. Guitar first, though. Darn it. *needs guitar lessons*

But, yeah, classical music is great. :mrgreen:

Mmm. Instrumental.
I'm not highly into classical, but it's nice stuff to listen to (especially live, like at an orchestra performace). I lean more towards Jazz.

i love listening to classical music, but i usually don't know who composes it, with the exception of a few people. :oops:

that's what you get for listening to the classical radio channel.

Haha, ok, so we should make a CM orchestra... and we should play Marche Slave... so far knowing the song, we've got a french horn and a flute player that doesn't remember much. :freak: We're gonna be the best orchestra ever!

I'll be the concertmaster; I play violin. I started when I was five, but haven't been doing much lately.

I can't name my favorite composer right now.
