Have you ever listened to a whole music of classical music? If not why? If you did. Did you enjoy it? When I was a child a band of orchestra use to wake me up. Don't get me wrong I am not a prince from a kingdom. There used to be a band orchestrar rehearsing every school vacation morning estimately 30 feet away from the back of our house. It feels so good when I hear them playing their musical instruments. Right now, there's no more orchestra at the back of our house. i missed the days where they use to play.

I love orchestras. I wish there's also an orchestra near our house. I love classical musics. My favorite musical pieces are Bach, Mozart and Chopin.

I find classical music so relaxing. If I am writing, preparing lectures, or reading, I play either classical or light instrumental music. There are no 'beat' or 'words' to take away my concentration. I also love to play classical music if I am having trouble falling asleep!

I use to do the same thing. I love listening to classical music while doing something that needs concentration.

i love classical music! my mom had me take piano lessons when i was a kid, and my piano teacher trained me well enough to appreciate the beauty of classical music. it's just a bit sad that we don't get to watch concerts very often in our town. but i have loads of cds of classical music to listen to.

It is true it's better to listen to live music. That what I used to enjoy when I was a little boy.

I have never heard western classical opera live, you must be very lucky, I have heard a lot of Indian classical shows live. I find classical music very soothing.

this music relaxes me so i enjoy listening it from time to time. it is not my favorite music. but i think most of the modern music takes example in classical music, so everybody should get to know it. and i guess the most of them would also like it.

Yes, I listen to classical music a lot. I love going to orchestra concerts. I'm a professional violist now, so I hear LOTS of classical music, haha.

I used to love listening to classical music. My favourite is Strauss. I could listen to his pieces all day lonve. I suppose my musical taste has changed so I don't listen to it anymore. I don't mind listening to them every now and again. Beethoven and Mozart were also my favourites.

If you were a prince from a kingdom with your own orchestra, it would be pretty exciting~! But anyway, I do like classical music, especially piano music and the musical scores from ballets. I think my favorite piano piece is and always will be Moonlight Sonata. Recently I also love Gymnopedie No 3 by Erik Satie.

Classical music has such a range of expressions - it doesn't just relax me, but often exites me. If you know the story or history behind the music, it makes it much more interesting and meaningful.
