Everything's Better "Classical"

            This genre of music can be so beautiful and rich with sound. I count composed music from movies as classical, whilst others may not. I have my opinon and others are entitled to theirs. I just happen to have the right one! Tee-hee ;)
            "Black Sands" by Bonobo is an entrancing song that reminds me of "The Godfather" for some reason. I suppose this song would work for indie flicks as well. This is from the album "Black Sands".
            "Carmina Burana (O Fortuna) (From "Excalibur")" by Lettonian Philharmonic Orchestra has been used in multiple films, typically for gags. It's an intense, vigorating piece. If you haven't listened to it yet, DO SO. It's from the album "Classical Music Library Vol. 5: Power Classics".
            "Trois Gymnopedies: I :Lent Et Douloureux" by Aldo Ciccolini is a beautiful piano piece that is just so relaxing and I love to sit to it. It's from the album "Great Recordings Of The Century - Satie: Works for Piano".
            "The Steward Of Gondor" by Howard Shore & Billy Boyd is a beautiful piece of music. Just beautiful and rather saddening. If you not already listened to the soundtrack of "The Lord Of The Rings: The Return Of The King": do so. And if you haven't seen the movies: The Hell is wrong with you? Fantastic movie AND soundtrack.
           "I Didn't Want To Die" by Carter Burwell is a short and pretty piano piece. It's calming and makes me sleepy just thinking about it. You can find it from the soundtrack of the awesome movie "In Bruges".
           "The Winner Is" by Danna/DeVotchKa is a bittersweet masterpiece. It makes you think. It's that kind of quirky music that's so enticing. You can find this lovely piece from the soundtrack of "Little Miss Sunshine".
           "Neodammerung" by Don Davis is the type of music that's ridiculously, cheesily epic but you can't help but love it. It's from the soundtrack of the dissappointing sequel "Matrix Revolutions".
           "Whitacre: Lux Aurumque" by Stephen Layton: Polphony is an enchanting choral piece. It always puts a slight chill down my spine. It is so elegant. You can find it in the album "Whitacre: Cloudburst".
           "Beowulf Main Title" by Alan Silverstri is a simple example of badassery. Just that short but epic opening title music. You can find it in the soundtrack of, you guessed it, "Beowulf".
           "Winterreise, D.911 : 24. Der Liermann" by Benjamin Britten & Peter Pears is an old German operatic piece. Tis very beautiful and calming and good to zone out to. Granted, I have NO idea what they are saying. Nevertheless, it's nice. From the album "Schubert: Winterreise".
           "Journey to Transylvania" by Alan Silverstri is yet another example of badassery and that short but epic opening title music. It's from the epic movie "Van Helsing".
           "Final Battle" by Alan Silvestri is that perfect monster battle music that's loud, filled with drums and choral music. Also from "Van Helsing".
           "Lux Aeterna" by Clint Mansell is a masterpiece. Easily a masterpiece from cinema. It's been used in commercials for other films also. It's such epic, definitive music, it'd be surprising to find someone who HASN'T heard of it. It's from the harrowing drama "Requiem for a Dream".
          
           That's all the classical music that I truly love. You should give a listenin' to these wonderful tunes. ;)
