ABC FM - Classic 100

Too much Gaythoven, not enough Rachmaninov

[EvangelionZeta]

Wait until the top 58.  :p

And woo @ Zadok the Priest being #92.  Baroque Rave Music ftw!

Someone copy paste all the new ones - my computer keeps screwing up the formatting.  :p

Yay Rach 2 is #7!  If anything I'm slightly disappointed it wasn't higher, but top 10 ftw!

Others I voted for that are in at the moment are 1812 (#52), Pearlfishers (#25) and The Four Seasons (#12).

#66: Rite of Spring
#58: Mahler 5

[EvangelionZeta]

New World!  Another one of my votes! =D

[Noblesse]

51   Rachmaninoff   Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini

Down with the overly-cliched pieces!

Care to recommend me some awesome non-clichéd piano concertos?

[EvangelionZeta]

^^Shostakovich Piano Concerto 1+2.  :p

[the.watchman]

^^Shostakovich Piano Concerto 1+2.  :p

Yes, they are great! I really like the Ravel Piano Concerto in G, it's a bit jazzy and unusual
Also, Prokofiev 2 is really exciting, but more normal

[AzureBlue]

Yay Rach 2 is #7!  If anything I'm slightly disappointed it wasn't higher, but top 10 ftw!

Mmm what do you predict will be #1?

[ninwa]

Is the Ravel PC on there? I mustve listened to it hundreds of times yet the 1st mvt  still makes me giggle

Yay for Rach 2! My fav of all time what number is Tchaik 1?

Re piano concertos:
Chopin 1 + 2
Liszt 1 + 2
Gershwin piano concerto (not Rhapsody in Blue)
Mendelssohn G maj (always forget if its 1 or 2)
Saint-Saens 2 (g min)
Nobody ever says Rach 1 or 4... 3 is also very beautiful

[AzureBlue]

Tchaik 1 is either not in the top 100 (LOL) or it is somewhere from #1-3 as it hasn't appeared yet! Tchaik is good

Emperor or Beethoven's 9th.  I also suspect the top 3 will be those two and Beethoven's 6th.

@ Ninwa, <333 Saint-Saens #2.  MGS is playing it at the Melbourne Town Hall on November 16th in a larger charity concert (along with the Pa Pa Pa Pa Duet from Mozart's The Magic Flute)!  Come! (I'm one of the singers in the Mozart duet >.>)

Ooooooooooh! Who's the pianist?

edit: if Tchaik isn't in the list... I will lose all faith in Australians.
edit 2: faith will also be lost if Gaythoven makes no.1... especially a cliche like the 9th

[AzureBlue]

You mean Tchaik 1 isn't even in the top 100? :O I think it would be more likely in the top 3 than not in the top 100...
