I'm looking for classical music that "startles" the listener. Pieces such as Haydn's "Surprise" symphony (No.94).

I actually have a piece for piano in mind, but the exact piece and the composer escapes me right now. However, all music will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
--Someone

Beethoven's Piano Sonata no.10 in G, Op.14 no2, second movement. The last chord should wake you up if you have fallen asleep.

The great early 20th-century composer Alexander Scriabin left us 74 published opuses, and several unpublished manuscripts, mainly from his teenage years – when he would never go to bed without first putting a copy of Chopin’s music under his pillow. All of these scores (220 pieces in total) can now be found on Piano Street’s Scriabin page. Read more
