It's Funny you should say that as I was typing an answer and Fcuked up and lost it but the gist was I first got into classical music around 1970 when I was also into groupes like Grand Funk Railroad,

I love classical music but I am not often in the right mood to listen to it for a long length of time, it's hard not to love Bach and the other legends like Beethoven or Mozart. I usually listen to metal but it is surprising how many listen to both whilst hating other 'normal' music.

It's Funny you should say that as I was typing an answer and Fcuked up and lost it but the gist was I first got into classical music around 1970 when I was also into groupes like Grand Funk Railroad, very early Queen, Black Sabbath, Led Zepplin and of course the ultimate Pink Floyd.

 

Yet at the same time I bought my first classical LP Mozart Piano Conterto #20 in D K446. These days I have pretty eclectic tastes in classical music from the above mentioned Berber's Adigio for strings and Karl Jenkins Benidictus from the armed man Einaudi's Le Onde to really old stuff like Schubert's The Trout, Handel's Harmonious Blacksmith, even Boccarini. I find no other type of music can make me feel a range of emotions so wide.

 

:laugh: I have even picked the music for my funeral Elgar's Nimrod .

Check out apocalypticas versions of metallicas songs on YouTube, best of both worlds ;)
