Hi there.

I joined this forum because people with whom I can discuss about classical music is sadly lacking in real life. I'm currently 18, a senior in high school. I sing and play the clarinet. I've been listening to classical music for about one and a half year.

-A few interesting facts about me-

What led me to dig classical is the epiphany from Beethoven's 9th symphony performed by Leonard Bernstein and the Vienna Philharmonic.

The oldest I'd go is probably Bach, and the most "modern" I'd go is probably Shostakovich.

My most played "song" according to my iTunes is the finale of Mendelssohn's Italian Symphony by Abbado/LSO, followed by the finale of Beethoven's 7th Symphony by Karajan 70s and Harnoncourt/COE.

I dislike Operas, especially Puccini. Not a huge fan of Impressionism either.

Currently discovering Bruckner.

Yeah.
