hi all!
music is one of the things created by mankind which serves as a form of entertainment and even helps people cope with things such as stress. different time periods and different cultures result in various forms of music. there's the modern electro, techno, R & B, jazz, pop, rock, folk, and of course, classic music.
my question... is there anybody still listening to classic music?
in my case, for some reason, although i listen to electro, techno and pop, i still appreciate the beauty of classic music (such as ones by Mozart, Bach, Chopin, etc.). i like the sheer beauty of each piece and makes me feel calm and relaxed (but not sleepy). if i recall correctly, there were some researches in the past that said that listening to classic music may help improve your memory and concentration.
thanks and happy mylotting!

I still listen to classical music. I'm not an expert on it, but there are a lot of works I enjoy. My favorite pieces are Bach's Italian Concerto and Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto in D. Both of those have some quite uptempo and exciting parts so I think the perception that classical music is all calm and relaxing is a bit misguided...there's as big a range of emotion in classical as there is any other genre.
