Recommend me some music

[Ika]

I'm looking for some classical/jazz music that focuses mostly in the middle and treble ranges. I already have most other genres of music covered; classical and jazz are my weakest.

I'd prefer single songs, but whole albums can be recommended if the majority of the songs are good.

Movie soundtracks are good too.

I like piano and violin. Good, fast acoustic guitar is also liked.

For audiophiles, this is going to be listened mostly through iM716, because they suck when playing a genre with any kind of bass.

if you are looking for jazz, go with the biggest name, Coltrane.
