Listen to all of Mahler's Symphony no.9 in D-major, it's the most moving piece I've ever heard. It is sad and regretful while being hopeful and forward looking:

Yeah Mahler is truly great. Modern composers too?
Well it's already been posted here, but Berg's Violin Concerto "to the memory of an angel" is a very moving piece. He wrote it as a sort of requiem for an 18-year-old girl who died from polio.
Come on, my classical brothers. We must keep this thread going.

Heil Pianee.

[QUOTE=Vedicardi;31110727]rate me winners you fucks that sonata rules[/QUOTE]
What is a sonata? :dance:
it's a classical composition with a form of intro, exposition, development, and recapitulation
Recapitulation eh?
Cool.
well I guess. It's probably the most common song form of the romantic era next to quartets and concertos
Just don't ask for an [i]album[/i] of a sonata, Akayz.
well there are sonata albums.

I have beethoven's piano sonatas, all of them, and his violin sonatas
I can highly recommend the Ashkenazy complete recordings of Scriabin's sonatas.
I like Grooveshark's Classical station.
Just more random trivia about most black musicians pre-1900's and up till about the 50's. There was a section in time where the Piedmont Blues which originated from from the Piedmont area of North Carolina down to South Carolina, was fairly popular. A large percent of Piedmont Bluesmen held the title of "Blind Boy," "Blind Dog," or just "Blind." It's believed that there were SO MANY "Blind" musicians (like Blind Boy Fuller, for example,) because they were useless. They couldn't be slaves, they couldn't do manual labor, so they taught themselves how to play gee-tar and other instruments.
I really like Beethoven's symphony's for homework.
Figured this thread could do with more baroque.

I was wondering if I could be recommended something by you guys. What I'm looking for is moving yet sad and tragic.

This is a superb album.. so peaceful and moving and probably will be a personal favourite in the classical genre.

I want to stress how good this is. In fact, I'll go ahead and say it's one of the greatest classical albums (original) of the 1900s.
welp, guess I'll get on that then
and here's an album for you!

Here's a group I completely forgot about. These guys are pretty much the best "recreation" of Mountain Music/banjo picking style music. They're from around North Carolina and have won a Grammy for their most recent album "Traditional Negro Jig." Similar to Minstrel Music and obviously traditional songs, but Mountain Music is it's own genre in of itself.

Yoyo-Ma is great, but I really like Rostropovitch's recordings of Bach's cello-preludes aswell:

Must give that a listen, has good stuff like Mozart, Brahms, Rachmaninov and Wagner on it.
