Some of my favorite Classical Music Pieces

I'll start out with Beethoven Symphony 9 op 125. Everything seems to blend well together, a tad sinister but optimistic as well.

I like the Roches version of The Halleujah Chorus. You can see it on a SNL episode from November 1979 hosted by Bea Arthur.

Eric Carmen "All By Myself" (interlude based on Rachmaninov's Piano Concerto # 2) & "Never Gonna Fall In Love Again" (melody based on Rachmaninov's "Second Symphony") (both from 1976).

Nobody's mentioned Ravel's Bolero? Accessible to everyone, yet still has its complexity; it is my absolute favorite piece of classical music.

I am into more contemporary stuff...

Holst's Planets I always enjoy
Claude Debussy's Clair de Lune
I also love Aaron Copland's Appalachian Spring
For Kristian Trumpers are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of naive people.
