I like modernised classical music or songs with classical music samples....Rob Dougan does some excellent ones....but I do like the odd original classical or classical music from soundtracks.

I'm big into orchestral movie soundtracks, which has its roots in classical music. As such, I love listening to Debussy, Ravel, Stravinsky, Tschaikovsky, Saint Saens, Respighi, Sibelius, and other such composers that were big from about 1880-1920. Of course, Gershwin, Bernstein, Copland, Grofe, and Hanson composed some great American pieces that are worth listening to.
"Modern" classical music from folks like Philip Glass and John Adams interests me ocassionally, but I haven't heard enough of it to make a real judgement on whether I like it or not.
I don't really like listening to anything before Beethoven's time. Mozart, Vivaldi, and Haydn are all boring to me. The only exception to the rule is the ocassional Fugue from Bach.

I'm more of a romantic music person m'self, classical music's a bit formulaic in general...
I play quite a lot of Ravel and Debussy on the piano and it's interesting listening to how other people play my repertoire.

anyone who claims to like music and doesn't listen to ANY classical music at all, has NO appreciation for the classics does not really love music.
oh btw, Rap is not music.

I was just kidding.
Rap isn't traditional music in the beat sense. But it is music get over it
I love classical, but I got to admit I love the allegro Assai portions the best.

i was j/k about rap not being music.
the rolling eyes was because you did.

That was really easy to tell because tone is so apparent over text communcation
it was obvious, to anyone with a modicum of intelligence.
hence the rolling eyes.
I'll listen, but really only as background music. It's not something that I'll listen intently to without doing something else.
