Listening to Chopin, I can't help recall the lyrics to that old Roberta Flack song, Killing me Softly: He sang as if he knew me In all my dark despair And then he looked right through me As if I wasn't there And he just kept on singing Singing clear and strong Strumming my pain with his fingers Singing my life with his words Killing me softly with his song Telling my whole life with his words Killing me softly with his song. Chopin plays as if he knew me in all my dark despair, and kills me softly with his music.

Well done!

I feel thoroughly called out, thank you very much

Saw Beethoven. I liked. I'm a simple man.

Have you ever seen Disney's THE MAGNIFICENT REBEL from back in the 1960s? It's a nice little story that has some actual facts in it. CARL HEINZ BOHM ( conductor Karl Bohm's son ) does an excellent job as Beethoven

Lured by the title, captivated by the art,,,

That was absolutely hilarious!

Bach is always my go to since I discovered his fugues.

I love how the Scriabin selection is the Eb minor sonata, one of the earliest works lmao if we go past opuses 30-40 it's a completely different story: you probably fantasize about the end of the world every day and is on the verge of madness

As a rachmaninov fan I confirm, that I am quite adorable

@@FREDGARRISON I’ve been into classical music ever since I was 10. But still this video had so many new ones I never heard about. But altogether, of course I’m more than familiar with the genre :)

As a Beethoven fan I can confirm. My taste is pretty swell 😏

As an artist some of the best times I've had in my studio was when I had consumed copious amounts of beer while working on a painting listening to Beethoven cranked up to max volume.

No list has ever included Khachaturian and he is my absolute favourite

If Khachaturian or Ligeti were included on this list, my guess for the caption would be "you really like Stanley Kubrick movies". 😁

“ You probably picked out the background music for the jumping dog on the Ed Sullivan show“

Dang, the Wagner one is so true for me, I'm most likely love film music, every dramatic and EPIC pieces that make me imagine a whole movie, that's also why I love Bruckner, Mahler and R. Strauss, as well as 20th composers, I like Debussy, Ravel, Satie, Prokofiev, Shostakovich, Bartók, Gershwin, etc... but I'm also a romantic and I love Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Schubert, R. Schumann, Liszt, Brahms, Dvořák, Tchaikovsky, Verdi, Puccini, Grieg, Scriabin, Rachmaninoff, Rimsky-Korsakov, Mussorgsky, Borodin (I must love Russia) Sibelius, Elgar. I think I'm a victorian gentleman, I belong to 19th and 20th Century. I like Mozart and Haydn, so I kinda believe myself an intellectual, I also like Vivaldi and it's true that I watch a lot of tv, just for movies and series. I love J Strauss II and it's family/contemporaries, mostly because of Tom & Jerry😂

I like Shostakovich because many of his pieces are Metal and quite dark, Wagner for the epic sound (and his long operas) and Tchaikovsky for the romantic and sad parts.

The piece you played by Shoenberg is quite awesome actually.
