Hail Bruckner!
Also Amadeus Mozart, as well as Tchaikovsky, I love some of his work.
I can't think of who composed it but I also like dance of the bees if that counts.
Anything soothing and quiet is appreciated.

Any fans of Brahms out there? He's got some stuff I like. First Symphony, Fourth Movement, for example.
I just remembered.
I don't know if any of you guys ever heard about this, but listen to some of Beethoven's later works. If you hadn't known better, you'd think they were written in the 20th century, which just goes to show how ahead of his time Beethoven was.
My favorite example is from his piano sonatas. The craziness starts around the 7 minute mark.

Apprently he did the soundtrack to the Tree of Life, which I kind of want to see now that I've listened to his stuff.
I was so sad to hear of Górecki's passing recently. I used to lie on the floor and listen to Górecki in high school. It's usually ethereal.
Kilar did a lot of movies too, didn't he? Didn't he do Bram Stokers Dracula?

I just found out that Boris Pasternak was a composer in his youth.

Oh come on. You can troll better than that, can't you?It reminds me more of poorly executed saloon music.
The Cinematic Orchestra - 'Manhatta' - YouTube
Cinematic Orchestra did a bunch of pieces of music for short films, released this year will be a collection of this. The above is an amazing piece in my opinion. Works great with the film. I kind of stopped my day listening to this, you know?
