Default Favorite Classical Piece

There has probably already been a thread like this, but....

What is your favorite piece of classical music?

I have so many favorites, but, right now, I am learning to play these:
(I almost have this first one memorized @Syrian)

(I have this one memorized)

(I am working on this one for my piano recital)

Respect...it sounds a quite difficult... Personally I'm amateur pianist and it's a tall order... :<

I like many pieces of classical music, in particular Yann Tiersen I'm learning Atlantique Nord now

Ahh.. Too many good ones.



Franz Liszt is amazing in general. Probably my favorite piece of his.

Of course a little Rachmaninov is always really good.


And one can not forget great operatic pieces either.



Oh, Verdi how we miss your musical prowess


Mozart wrote amazing operas. Especially in the Magic flute. Great performance by Sumi Jo. Hitting those high C's.


Wagner is an absolute genius. One of my favorite Opera composers ever


Have to touch on one of the russian greats, at least.. And Yes. Swan lake is Amazing.


And finally we end with Edvard Grieg.

I have more favorites but I should probably stop there. >_>

Piano - Scott Joplin - Pineapple Rag - YouTube [youtube.com]

(I have this one memorized)
Maple Leaf Rag Played by Scott Joplin - YouTube [youtube.com]

(I am working on this one for my piano recital)
Impromptu Op.28 No. 3 - YouTube [youtube.com]
While I certainly like The Entertainer and Maple Leaf Rag, those were Ragtime not Classical.



Super-Classical.





The Harpsichord!



Fur Elise!


Tocatta!


Hall of the Mountain King!


Vivaldi!


Strauss!


Radetzky March!


Giuseppe Verdi!


Hakkapeliittain Marssi!

I guess. I probably should have used a different word. Classical is too vague. When I said classical, I meant the time period from Ragtime back to the harpsichord. Okay, @ChristMyRedeemer! You got me on a technicality!
