Classical music bores me. I can name a few composers like Mozart, Bach and Beethoven. Apparently though I used to love Richard Clayderman when I was little, I was told that was classical music. Does he count?

I like Beethoven, yes, and I adore Tchaikovsky. I really do! Mozart is okay, and I'm sad to confess I've never heard Bach. "Pachabel's Cannon" is one of my faves, but...who composed it?
I also feel the need to add some contemporary composers of classical music like Asis Nasseri, Christofer Johnsson, Tobias Hahn, Michael Haas and Tilo Wolff. Not always purely classical music, but I still think they should count.
I'll send you some Bach if you like.I like Beethoven, yes, and I adore Tchaikovsky. I really do! Mozart is okay, and I'm sad to confess I've never heard Bach.
Pachelbel composed it."Pachabel's Cannon" is one of my faves, but...who composed it?
Yes! That's exactly the one I was looking for! Thanks.Originally Posted by fantasyjunkie
i don't know too much about this kind of music so names and pieces are quite a long way off
...Geddit?
Beethoven is the most superior composer. Bach was a genius for his time, but there is no way his music stands up to most great music since then.
My favorite compsers are Mussorgsky, Philip Glass, Bartok, Beethoven, and many others.
Ive really only heard Beethoven, Bach and Mozart.

Don't be hating cause it's true.
Beethoven had alot of music that completely smurfing sucked. Bach had none. Beat that Classical/Romantic composers!
I probably like Vivalda and Tchaikovsky the most. I've not listened to nearly as much classical music as I ought to have though.
ehh...no...
I can't think of anything by Bach that was really all that boring. I can make a whole list of stuff by Beethoven, though. Mostly his god awful piano work.
Okay, instead of carrying on this trivial argument, I'll offer music that hopefully you haven't heard so, like in the title, you may build a list of "classical" music.
Arnold Schonberg-Pierrot Lunaire: The other important modernist piece, besides Rite of Spring. However, less people are familiar with this. Check it out, its crazy.
Bela Bartok-Concerto for Orchestra
Philip Glass-Music in Similiar Motion: Probably the most characteristically minimalist piece.
Reinhold Gliere-Symphony No. 3: Not a widely known composer, which I feel is unfortunate. Romantic, Russian Nationalist music.
