Dude! First off, Tchaikovsky is my favorite classical artist. The
1812 Overture is one of the coolest songs ever.
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.
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.

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.
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.
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.
