I'm not going to sit here and pretend I know classical music all that well. I do own a box set of 15 or so CD's with some of the best stuff ever. Each CD is compiled of stuff that represents moods or themes. Pretty cool.
There is one composer that sticks out for me though, and to no surprise, my favorite is Edvard Grieg. Not only a Norwegian, but the man behind The Hall of the Mountain King! Simply one of the best, if not the best, piece of music ever written. The whole Peer Gynt thing is awesome!
