    Who composed this piece: Supposedly it is Antonio Vivaldi, but people in the comment section are saying otherwise. Does anyone know on who actually composed this piece? Help would be appreciated.

    Hello there, I know of quite a lot of recordings of Duruflé's requiem, do you have any recommendations of recordings that I don't know of yet? Feel free to post some recommendations of yours in the comment section.

    Hi there! This is my first post - I don't really frequent classical forums, or forums of any particular kind, and most often only as a reader when I fall into a composer-specific rabbit hole, but seeing as I've been plagued by a question for the past ten years or so regarding a specific...

    Hi everyone! Just joined :) So, as I begin to delve more into classical music, I've been looking around the internet for what people often suggest as the "best" recordings of various albums/suites/scores.

    I grew up with a recording of Sibelius 2 with Bernstein and the NY Phil. I have imprinted on this recording. I love it but I also know it is an idiosyncratic rendition so it makes it somewhat difficult for me to be objective in evaluating other recordings of this work. Anyhoo, what are your...

    Long story short. My 2011 Release of the celebrated Mahler Tennstedt Cycle arrived today! Probably many of you own the first release of the cycle, the 1998 box. I had read that EMI had made further remasters of the symphonies in the early 2000s. That is the reason why I chose to buy the 2011 box...

  19. Identifying Classical Music
    Hi everyone, I've always been terrible at identifying music so I'm sorry if this one is trivial. I heard a kid playing a piano in public and recorded it, I had to run and catch the train before I could ask what he was trying to play and now I want to find the full piece :) I'm attaching the...
