Personality

[brahmsian]

If you had to describe your personality using a piece of classical music, which song(s) would you pick? Personally I would choose Chopin's "Butterfly" Etude.

[paris]

i think these 3 pieces would describe me the best:

Liszt- Dante Sonata
Chopin- E-minor concerto, 1st movement (specially thema with chords in left)
Chopin- Sonata b flat minor

[thalbergmad]

op57 Appassionata

[thalberg]

Goldberg Variations--or at least I wish that was what my personality was like. 

More truthfully--probably the Berg Sonata

[Nightscape]

Ravel's Daphnis et Chloé ballet.

[Waldszenen]

When I'm in a good mood, the Prelude from Debussy's Suite Bergamasque.


Otherwise, the Passepied from that same suite. =)

[quantum]

Brahms Intermezzo Op. 118/6
Beethoven Op.111
Chopin 3rd Sonata

[ludwig]

Beethoven hence Ludwig

[steinwayguy]

Beethoven's Emperor Concerto
Rachmaninoff's Third Concerto
Beethoven Op. 106 and Op. 111
Brahms Rhapsody Op. 119 No. 4

[pianonut]

i connect most with beethoven's walstein, but am moving along to really enjoy the chords in poulenc's tres pieces (although it is harder to memorize than beethoven).

 

[wintervind]

Since you asked for songs I will go with Winterreise song cycle by Schubert

[Skeptopotamus]

Dvorak Humoreske ^^

[silvaone]

Chopin's Prelude Op.28 No.20 half time   

[Floristan]

Richard Strauss's "Four Last Songs".

[Bouter Boogie]

Gosh, that's a good question though  I'll think about it 

[llamaman]

Dvorak Humoreske ^^

I love that piece so much!! That probably describes me the best.

[apion]

Brahms, Piano Concerto no. 1 in d minor, op. 15 (1st mvt)
Brahms, Handel Variations (fugue)
Bach, Toccata and Fugue in d minor

[Appenato]

Fantaisie Impromptu - Chopin

Ballade no. 1 and 2 - Chopin

Moonlight Sonata, 1st mvmt.

Eusebius and Florestan - Schumann (from Carnaval)

Piano Concerto no. 2, 2nd mvmt. - Rachmaninoff

Nocturne no. 4, op. 54 - Grieg

... to name a few.

[chopinmaniac]

For me, hands down the 2nd ballade of Chopin.  I am so completely bipolar and sometimes people think im weird, but when they get to understand me better, they realize that I actually do make sense.

And the coda kicks a**

[Kassaa]

Don't know really. I'm evil, I'm always sarcastic, but to the people who can help me/give me money I'm always nice

[ashraf_khalil72]

i think iwill use faure's pavane
however it seems to me  that it depends on my psychlogical condition
may be in some other day iwill choose vivaldi's 4 seasons (spring)!!!!!!

[kghayesh]

I don't know why but i feel myself in the Revolutiuonary Etude

[dlu]

Stragely enough...

Salome: Dance of Seven Veils (From the Opera "Salome" by Richard Strauss)

Rachmaninoff-Piano Concerto No. 1 (All Mvts)

Stravinsky-Rite of Spring

Lutoslawski-Cello and Piano Concertos

Perhaps these are just some of my favorite pieces...but...I think each of them are in some way part of my personality or perhaps they have even influenced who I am.

[i_m_robot]

chopin prelude in eminor

life for the robot really sux

or his first ballade

[yamagal]

Debussy's Clair de Lune, also Reverie

[Bouter Boogie]

Think I would go for Islamey (Balakirev) The piece is so spiritual and there’s so many variation in it

[janice]

Beethoven's Appassionata Sonata.  Definitely!

[Barbosa-piano]

 Rachmaninoff's Prelude Op. 23 No.5 in G minor, or the Op. 3 No.2 in C sharp minor, his third and second Piano Concertos... Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody No. 15.

[dlu]

Stragely enough...

Salome: Dance of Seven Veils (From the Opera "Salome" by Richard Strauss)

Rachmaninoff-Piano Concerto No. 1 (All Mvts)

Stravinsky-Rite of Spring

Lutoslawski-Cello and Piano Concertos

Perhaps these are just some of my favorite pieces...but...I think each of them are in some way part of my personality or perhaps they have even influenced who I am.

I'll add Gaspard de la Nuit (Artful dodger of the night) to my list...I'm very sneaky

[dinosaurtales]

I definitely connect with Beethoven - the Appassionata seems to contain all that I "see" in Beethoven.  The relentless intensity with ocassional fits - in a minor key!  that's me!

[piazzo23]

Prokofiev´s Romeo and Juliet´s "Death of Juliet". I feel like that most of the time.

[dinosaurtales]
