I love this song SOOO much!

I love that song too! And it is so beautiful with just instruments!

*listens to if for the 10th time since I posted it* Why can't we listen to music like this on the SS trip?



LOVE 2:05!

That one is my mom's favorite! It's so beautiful! I also love Gavotte from Mignon

I die every time I listen to this...

Yesterday, I rode my bike through the forest while listening to classical music...I kid you not, it sounds like the trees are making the music.

That is SO pretty! *dies*

That's really cool! I always feel like dancing in those kinds of settings!

I always listen to either Swan Lake, Nutcracker, or Sleeping Beauty when I stretch in the morning! I like being able to watch the ballet in my head while I stretch!

@Renae, I didn't hear all of that song but what I heard was super pretty!

LOVE this song and LOVE Chloe Agnew!

I personally prefer jazz (a genre I've really been getting into lately) to classical, but I still love playing and listening to Bach, Beethoven, and Vivaldi.

umm well I wouldn't say I'm into it but I do like some it depends on what it sounds like.

Well, at least you like some of it! I agree that not all classical music is appealing. Do you have a favorite piece?

I think this song is funny!

There is something about classical music that the other kinds of music can't do. They are beautiful and move a person in a better way. I'm afraid my favorites are ones you are sure to have heard before. So here's a fun thing I came across which is a unique combo of a well played violin and a more modern sound. And it actually sounds great.

That's nice Arkán... but I don't think I would classify that as classical. I think if you add techno or dubstep, it kinda defeats the purpose of classical.

Which do you like more?

Luciano Pavorotti

Well then, this is not one of my favorite pieces, but it is one of my favorite instruments.

The Glass Armonica, invented by Ben Franklin, (which is probably why he is dressed as Ben Franklin) and one of the rarest instruments. I refer to it as near extinct.

That's REALLY cool! Call me a homeschooler, but I have never heard of that before....

No kidding. That piece was made for the haunting sound of the Armonica.

That was extremely interesting, Arkán. Do you know if the glass Armonica is particularly difficult to play? I'm not experienced enough in the musical side of things to tell just by watching.
