classical music of any type or region is the basics like script . If coordinated well while composing the tunes and rythm it last for ever . The old nos and the musical operas like Beethoven or Mozart are too old but still its cool preferred by mass due to its classical notes only

I LOVE IT!
So relaxing, so beautiful... so amazing! :)

Josh Groban is my favourite classical singer, his voice is unbelievable :)

uh ... you must mean Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau or Luciano Pavarotti or Rolando Villazon rather than Josh Groban ... Groban is a pop guy ...

Some classical music is actually jubuliant, happy, and very easy to listen to, some of the other music has no rhythm or rhyme and some no meaning. Some of the lyrics leave a lot to be desired.

While I might not like all of it, it is obviously art and should be appreciated.

I wish all of the most popular music out there would take a cue from classical music and add at least a teeny, tiny bit of complexity to their sound.Then it wouldn't suck half as bad as it does.

Though Mozart and Lady Gaga might have been able to spend an afternoon trying each others wigs on; had they been contemporaries. :-)

this was the rock of its time. i'm music major some of the great things that came out of classical music for now. like cromatics for jazz from beethoven. breaking of th church modes by the romantics chopinm shubert, shumman.
so with out this it would be no rock or country bach the father of music wrote the rules.
mozart was genius wow.

Even if you find it boring, you should recognize the brilliance in classical music (that is unless you think Brittney or Beiber (etc.) is brilliant).

I am listening to Led Zeppelin's Kashmir right now. Take out the lyrics and you have classical beauty.

How about taking crappy pop songs and turning them into classical pieces of art?

Check out Aston if you get the chance. :)

Everything evolves and changes.It was a brilliant stepping stone in time. I give it it's due. I prefer a more modern sound. I actually don't enjoy horns blaring. It's an indication of old to me.

I love classical. I went to Cleavland Ohio once to hear their symphony orchestra. Beautiful, I only wish that I had gotten sleep the night before. I had been up almost a full two days without sleep when we arrived in ohio (I have a hard time sleeping in buses) It was about 8 at night when we heard the orchestra, i managed to stay awaje during the whole thing because it would have been rude to fall asleep, but still, it was amazing :]
