What piece of classical music do you like?

[fredv3b]

Currently loving Haydn's 'London' symphonies.

[Wintereis]

William Levi Dawson - Negro Folk Symphony (3) 1934.




Just found this composer, very strong and bold music.

Taking inspiration from folk music is a time honored tradition in classical music, from Mozart's interpretation of "twinkle, twinkle little" star to Dvorak's creation of a Czech inspired classical form.

Here are a couple of my favorite classically interpreted folk songs:

[matty7]

Night On Bald Mountain: Mussorgsky

i'll add one cos ive just heard it in Fantasia

[Rychard the Lionheart]

Albinoni-ADAGIO




The piece is the work of Remo Giazotto and not Tomaso Albinoni.

[Rychard the Lionheart]

Mascagni: Cavalleria Rusticana "Intermezzo"
