2. Add to that Steve Reich and his Music For 18 Musicians.
3. I've never been particularly fond of Bach. His music's technically incredible, but it doesn't grab at me emotionally.
- jon_dahl 17y agoRE Bach: to each their own. I find counterpoint to be really emotionally powerful, and I think that's the root of what grabs me in Bach.
- warfangle 17y agoI concur with the sentiments re: Bach. I'm much more of a fan of Mozart, though I cannot articulate why.
- unalone 17y agoMozart's got a real sense of fun to his pieces. My reaction to him is the opposite of mine to Bach: I've never heard a Mozart piece that didn't sweep me away. His work is so rich and so full. I just had Chopin recommended to me as far as Romanticism goes. Beethoven's never quite done it for me (he's terrific, but not in the same way that Mozart is IMHO), so I'm hoping Chopin really sparks a love.
