I find classical music to be like indie music--it's hard to break into unless you know someone who can point you in the right direction. So I'm stepping in to share one of my all time favorite compositions with you (even though it's not at all from the Classical era in music...it gets lumped in there).
Ignore this weird pic of the sun. This song doesn't remind me of the sun AT ALL.
It's "Alleluia and Fugue" by Alan Hovhaness. Every time I hear this song I wonder why it hasn't been in 10 thousand soundtracks.
Anyway, add that to your music library. It won't disappoint.
And for your time, here's some Words of Wisdom from one Colin Firth.
I agree completely: I am desperate for more classical music in my life but I find it so hard to begin. This composition was amazing. If I may be so bold: I think you should do a post of your top ten favorite classical songs or some such thing... That would be epic in this humble reader's opinion.
