Favorite classical music?

[MongGrel]

wow, this is within several months of being the oldest necro in ATOT history

my favorite classical music is probably rachmaninoff prelude in g minor, opus 23 number 5

shimpster does seem to be on a necro run.

Most of my favorites were listed here long ago, I suppose, but there are many.

Just typing Queen to do so is pretty bad form.

Rachmaninoff is my sanctuary music

I'm more into early music, or medieval, not so much classical. Here's some albums I like.

Estampie: Materia Mystica (Homage To Hildegard Von Bingen)

Estampie: Signum

Estampie: Ondas

Tim Rayborn: Honey from the Thorn

The Soil Bleeds Black - I recommend their following albums: Alchemie, Quintessence, Mirror of the Middle Ages

Wolgemut - more lively bagpipe/percussion, Renaissance-fair-type band; German

BRAIINSSSS!

Composers who are now decomposing, as the old dead joke goes:

Sharon Isbin - plays Bach (guitar)
Jakob Lindberg - Vivaldi lute concertos (period lute)

I forget who recommended her in the "listening to" thread, but this is nice:

Katie Noonan + Brodsky Quartet - https://youtu.be/CCpXd9v-9ag

... and Elvis Costello + Brodsky - https://youtu.be/MHUsnXnT4no
