Your favorite music composer/piece of music
« on: December 09, 2010, 01:46:27 PM »
Not including jazz,rap,hip-hop,country, ect.

Im talking from Middle ages chant up to 20th century symphony. Your favorite composer(s) or pieces of music

For me:

Composers: Aaron Copland, Igor Stravinski, Vaclav Nehlybel, Modest Mussorgsky, Gustav Holst, and Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.

Pieces: Fanfare for the common man (Copland), Firebird Suite (Stravinski), Trittico (Nehlybel), Pictures at an Exhibition (Mussorgsky), The Planets - Jupiter (Holst)       1812 Overture (Full song) (Tchaikovsky)




For those who want to listen to the named pieces above here some links: (Could not find Trittico)

One of my fave pieces :)
This girl can blow.........  :)


In this new recording, Alison Balsom, the 2009 Classical BRIT Artist of the Year, plays popular concertos on the trumpet. They were originally composed for the violin or oboe by Vivaldi, Tartini, B. Marcello, Albinoni and Cimarosa, accompanied by the Scottish Ensemble.

Firebird Suite... Ahh yes. That brings back fond old memories. When I was in high school, we played a "Fire Show" theme and the Firebird Suite was our encore song. Please watch the video of my marching band as we performed at the State Championships. I was a Freshman during this time and played the trumpet.
