| Rec Me Essential Classical/study Music
My college year started Tuesday, and so I'm looking for more study-optimal music. Classical, electronic and film scores work great, although the latter can lead thoughts to the movie (and therefore others as well). Basically, rec me any essential classical, stuff similar to what's here, or just awesome music with few or no vocals/lyrics. Post rock doesn't work cause, well I've only found one album I really like. | | 1 | Antonio Vivaldi
The Four Seasons | | 2 | Bach
Cello Suite No.1, Prelude in G Major | | 3 | Beethoven
\"Pathetique\" Sonata, I | | 4 | Symphony No. 5 | | 5 | Edvard Grieg
In the Halls of the Mountain King | | 6 | Franz Schubert
Erlking | | 7 | Frederic Chopin
Prelude No. 4 in E minor (\'Suffocation\') | | 8 | Handel
Messiah; Hallelujah | | 9 | Igor Stravinsky
The Rite of Spring | | 10 | Samuel Magad
Also Sprach Zarathustra | | 11 | Tchaikovsky, Pyotr Il\'yich
Piano Concerto No. 1 In B-Flat Minor, Op. 23, I | | 12 | The Nutcracker | | 13 | Rob Dougan
Furious Angels
(The instrumentals for the whole album) | | 14 | Daft Punk
Aerodynamic
(and most of Discovery) | | 15 | Fatboy Slim
Right Here, Right Now | | 16 | Fluke
Zion
\"Zion baby! It\'s obviously the city where the last remaining humans live, and the robots are coming to kill us. Doesn\'t that just make you wanna party?!\" | |

09.02.10 | Sigur Ros, Phillip Glass (the -Qatsi Trilogy in particular), most of Steve Reich's stuff, Thomas Newman's work on Road to Perdition, and Clint Mansell's score for The Fountain have all served me well in the past. | eternium
09.02.10 | Moonlight Sonata.

09.02.10 | Sod off. Explosions in the Sky is amazing. | thebhoy
09.02.10 | Johann Sibelius is great for Studying, as is Antonin Dvorak. Maybe try Dvorak's 9th symphony. | qwer7yfreak
09.02.10 | Brian Eno's ambient stuff is great for studying. | Dryden

09.03.10 | Search anything by Christopher Parkening, arguably the best living classical guitarist. He's got a lot of top-notch recordings. | Ire
09.03.10 | if he's a classical guitarist and doesn't have a mustache he sucks.

IDM is the way to go for studying. It excites the area of the brain which makes you remember things thus it makes you study better...and BoC fucking rocks so win win.
though I do believe "Classical" music does the same thing. | Poet
09.03.10 | In my music class this week we listened to The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra by Benjamin Britten. It was pretty awesome and quite relaxing in spots. | ConsiderPhlebas
09.03.10 | John Williams - John Williams Plays Bach | Maniac!
09.03.10 | Tchaikovsky is my favorite composer of all time.
On a more relevant note... 'Miles Davis - In a Silent Way' is awesome study music |
