I'm not an aficionado of classical music, but I do know when I enjoy something. Recently, I was having a conversation with sounds_sound about what type of music we listen to while we run. He mentioned that his roommate listens to classical music while she runs. I don't know enough about classical music and I'd like to change that. This link seems a good place to start. I'm wondering what are some pieces of music that some of you could suggest? I'm excited to begin this journey and plan on making a concerted effort to submerse myself in classical music for the foreseeable future.
I used to listen to Brahms Deutsches Requiem and always loved how dark and emotional it is. I think I'll start by revisiting this.
Any suggestions are most welcome!
