Classical Music (pre-1901)

[Prof. Will Lestrange]

A lot of discussion about 'music' seems to be focused on the popular music produced in the past 75 years, but the music from before 1901 deserves some love too! I enjoy the melodies, harmonies, and interplay between various sounds from, say, the Classical, Baroque, or Romantic eras; what do you think about composers ,music, and so forth from those eras?

[Aura Nightmoon]

I enjoy classical music since it's what I dance to when in ballet. Other classes have more contemporary or new artists, but I will always be a fan of Tchaikovsky and Minkus. Adolphe Adam is another great one for Giselle. Anytime I hear music from those eras, I always see a story in my head which turns into choreography. I've never been the best dancer, but I can tell a story through movement, usually after hearing a new piece only once.
