Franz Liszt - Hungarian Rhapsody No.2 (Orchestra version)
Dmitri Shostakovich - Waltz No. 2
Johann Strauss II - The Blue Danube Waltz
Prokofiev - Dance of the Knights
Mussorgsky - Night On Bald Mountain
Johannes Brahms - Hungarian Dance No. 5
...and many many more that I simply do not remeber the titles right now.
Check out every post, comment and badge that Owl has on Hubski. Here are a few to get you started.
Lately I've been listening to a lot of Sergei Rachmaninoff. In particular: -Prelude in C sharp minor, Op. 3 -Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini -Prelude in G Minor, Op. 23 -And my current favorite, due to the finale, is the third movement of Piano Concerto No.3
Mussorgsky - Pictures at an Exhibition (Especially The Hut on Fowl's Legs and The Great Gate of Kiev) This is easily my favorite classical piece. Got to hear it in full at the symphony a few days ago with demure and I could not contain my excitement. Holst - The Planets - Jupiter Sibelius - Finlandia Beethoven - Symphony No. 7 Vivaldi - Concerto for 4 Violins in B Minor (Op. 3 No. 10) I also really like Hungarian Dance No. 5, but I think my favorite of those dances is No.6.
Not including the 9th, as that is something special all its own, this is my favorite of the Beethoven Symphonies. Here, take a listen one of my favorite recordings of it. Also props on The Planets. We play all eight when we do outreach and will have Jupiter and Saturn on repeat when it is time to show those planets off to the public.Beethoven - Symphony No. 7
That's a fabulous recording! We played the second movement last year (Allegretto) and I just loved my part. We cellos had an exciting part throughout the entire piece, which was super cool.
Allegretto is amazing. I used to listen to it often and recently rediscovered it while putting together the #3questions for coffeesp00ns.
I forgot how amazing to zanarkand sounds, isn't it amazing how we are so much amazed by something but then, we simply forget about it. That's existence.
Got a few more I might add in an edit when I have time, but this is the first that comes to mind: Chopin - Ballade no. 1
Partita No. 2 in D Minor for Solo Violin, Bach.
Lark Ascending by Vaughan Williams. Just simply beautiful. Spem in Alium by Thomas Tallis. Showcases the best of what Tallis could accomplish with just the human voice, in an era before most classical orchestral instruments could be crafted and mastered.
