Which in particular?
Carnival of the Animals and op. 45. Gooooood stuff. I've been enjoying Stravinsky's Rite of Spring too; a classic classical, hah. It's just so haunting and primitive! And I've always had a soft spot for Chopin's preludes.
Thanks! I'll check it out. I was going to mention the Rite of Spring too, a long time favorite. You know that as a ballet, it was roundly booed when it was first performed? That's the story anyway, but some year's ago they resurrected it using the original costume drawings and choreography notes. And it is in fact, nothing like any ballet you've ever seen before. I have a video of it somewhere, maybe it's on UTube?...
Yes, here's part one - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OdvIRV_nwIE
ETA: Wow, the credits kind of go on, don't they?...
I like the mood that Boroque sets, but there are only a few pieces that stand out to me. But then, there is so much!

Tom Waits "Bad As Me" ( ! )
Re: What are you listening to...?
Classical music: Rimsky-Korsakov's 'Scheherazade' has been a favourite piece for me, for a long time.

^ Thanks for this! There are a number of classical music pieces that my parents played years ago, I remember the music but have no idea who composed it or the name of the piece. This is one!
