I have an ABC(anything but country) policy on my Ipod and my car. Bach next to Nirvana, Public Enemy with The Beatles. But I have a love for classical piano. And of that genre, Raindrops is my all time favorite:

What about your favorites. What moves you? What relaxes you?

Mozart's huge output of piano concertos is my favorite music in the world. If I want to just listen at an intellecutual level, if I need music to help me focus and screw down, if I'm in a celebratory or happy mood, if I'm sad, Mozart's piano concertos tend to be my favorite music. Oddly, I don't like Mozart's symponies or other compositions nearly as well. His piano concertos are simply my favorite music in the world. I never tire of them, they never cease to move me very profoundly. And there are so many!
It's also amazing how different they sound depending on the performer. Vladimir Ashkenazy is probably my favorite but I've been listening to Murray Paraiah lately for a change.

Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" 1st mvmt. Another favorite to play because it's relaxing and not too difficult.

As Mozart always works for for SU, this one works for me every time I hear it:

The symphony played this 2 weeks ago. I thought it was really good. It was amazing watching the soloist with his right hand firmly attached to the bench

I was in the mood tonight to listen to Shenandoah. This is of my favorite renditions by the San Francisco group chanticleer.

I am a big Aaron Copeland fan. Vivaldi too.
