So I was googling "best classic pieces of all time" and I was directed to a man's blog where he provided a list, videos and descriptions for all these pieces. And he had some fantastic pieces. So I decided I wanted to make my own list :) Here's my favorite classic pieces in no specific order:
(P.S. sorry I couldn't put up the actual videos. I didn't know how this thing would let me) :(
#1: Clair de Lune - Debussy
Ok, if you associate this song with Twilight, are like "omigod! that's from Twilight", I'm so disappointed in you :( I can't judge completely because I discovered this song from Man on Fire. But that movie is so much more epic.
But I appreciate this song alone. So lovely. I like the 3:14 part on piano better. But I liked this version.
#2: Prayer of the Children - Kurt Bestor
"Ironically, I never intended to publish the song at all. I wrote it out of frustration over the horrendous civil war and ethnic cleansing taking place in the former country of Yugoslavia"
This was sung at Dachau on my trip to Europe. Most emotional experience I've ever had with a piece. I like this version, but I think they sing parts of it too fast. I liked the video with it though.
#3: Gretchen am Spinnrade - Schubert
#4: Pas De Deux - from Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker
#5: Blessed are They - Brahms
#6: Across the Stars - John Williams (Love Theme from Star Wars Episode II)
ok so this isn't a "classic" but this is like epic.
#7: Duel of the Fates - John Williams
ok if the love theme gets to be on here so does duel of the fates
ok. i'm getting way off track here.
#8: Sleep - Eric Whitacre
the video is stupid haha but just listen to it
#9: Main Theme from "Ever After" - George Fenton
