Good classical music
on: April 15, 2004, 07:22:39 PM
I've been playing jazz piano for a while and have really got into jazz since i started.  I have listened to classical before and have enjoyed some especially Rachmaninov and some Bach but i was hoping to broaden my listeneing, are there any particular composers or peices you would recommend, just to listen to not to play?  Thanks
I'll be Bach

There was a post some time ago talking about favorite pieces from various composers. It will give you lots of ideas from quite a broad range of tastes.
