Anything by Ludovico Einaudi, Nobuo Uematsu, Vaughan Williams, Purcell, Schubert, Beethoven tends to be my thing.

Most beautiful piece in the world, bad quality on the video but it's really really really beautiful.

Ludovico Einaudi is amazing.

Also Philip Glass needs a mention.

The moment I thought, BB-Eye has come back!
I never knew he did open this thread. Because he always visited "Easy Listening Music" thread to post his favourite classical music.

I wonder how is he doing, I miss him.

I am not a classical music person, but I love popular classic.


Bach - Air on the G string

Yes, I don't have a huge knowledge of classical music either Sooty and rely on others to 'guide' me as to discover more...BB Eye was someone who was quite knowledgeable and I enjoyed his 'recommendations', which I wouldn't necessarily know myself...I love learning more about...well everything really...LOL
