-
The balance is perfect here!! This is better than most professional orchestras that I have heard!! Wonderful job. I can't stop listening to it!!
-
INCREDIBLE EPIC MOTHER FUCKING ORGASMIC ENDING !!! HELL YEAH
-
Best orchestra is the WPO, or the Royal Concertbougw

-
The coda of the final movement of the Bruckner 5 may be the finest in ALL classical music!
-
@codypalooza Try the finales of Sibelius's 3rd and 5th, and Bruckner's 4th and 8th.
-
@codypalooza I was forgetting the greatest goose pimple ending of the lot - Shostakovich 7!
-
@codypalooza How amazing - I thought exactly the same as you whilst listening to this! Tiroler has given a spot on list , but also try Walton sym 1 1st movement, Mahler 1, Bruckner 8, Bruckner 7 1st mvt, of course Beethoven 5&9, Tchaikovsky 4, Rachmaninov 1. And if you are feeling strong, Brahms 4 - the whole final movement builds like Sibelius 2, but it builds down, not up - beware, it can seriously damage your health!
@codypalooza
I'm also interested in this topic, so I made a compilation of epic goosebump music.
I'd recommend to include the movements before..otherwise its like a drug overdose :)

eeerr, no. it is a hard life, requiring monastic discipline and committment, it was too hard for me even though i could play the music.
music is a good servant, to come home and put on the stereo when you are in the mood for it, but it is a vicious and unforgiving master.
I dont recommend the life of a classical musician to anyone unless you are already so enthralled that you can do no other, for it WILL demand your WHOLE life
