Anyone into classical piano.


I could listen to Debussy's Clare de Lune and Mozart's concerto 21 for the rest of my life.

Anyone ever heard of Yanni?....I know of Mozart and Beethoven etc but that was the style a few hundred years back, but for modern, beautiful music i know that the old "classical" music isn't even half as good

Check out this piece by Yanni

You have to wait 15 seconds before you can listen to it and the options are at the bottom of the page

Glenn Gould's classic "Goldberg Variations"

A classic and a real joy to hear.

listen (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6n0O1shJURU)

Also, most pieces by Chopin are very enjoyable.

I haven't heard Goldberg Variations yet - is that Gould playing Bach? I'm quite fond of his Piano Sonatas.

Yes ... it's a Bach piece. It's an absolute must. Make sure you get the 1950's version though ... the newer recording is a little slow for my taste.

Clair De Lune and...

Rhapsody in Blue. Sure it has an orchestra with it, but Gershwin is probably the greatest man to ever sit at a piano. This piece will stay in it's youth forever, and will never get old. I'll be listening to this til the day I die.
