>>74192914
I've only been able to get into Romantic era stuff like Franz Liszt.
As a amateur violinist I'm really into Mendelssohn's Violin concerto in E minor, Bruch's violin concerto in G minor op.26, Caprice Basque opus 24 and Navarra by Pablo de Sarasate, Sonata no.3 Ballade by Ysaye, and Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto

i love ivo pogorelich's scarlatti sonatas
Wagner's Ring Cycle for babbies (good if you want intense romanticism) :
Step 1: listen to it without singing

Step 2: if you like the music and want to understand what it represents watch this

Step 3: watch all four on acid for 15 hours

normie here, I like country music normally
la traviata is so fucking good though
>>74197094
What's the best?
>>74197515
Thielemann or Barenboim
Thielemann does a better job of conducting imo
>>74197515
Get the classic Solti recording via torrent or whatever and don't look back, it is the best intro, these options are for further appreciation after you know the material

John Coltrane - Blue Train
Debussy's Quartet in G minor
>>74197094
I'm assuming that those videos are the Boulez ones.
Don't watch those. Download the MET 1990 production conducted by Levine. Best video production by far. The torrent on rutracker has the first cd for Siegfried corrupted though, so someone posted another torrent for that part specifically.
>>74197515
1952 Keilberth for perfomance. 1990s Barenboim if you care about sound quality, it is by far the best modern performance.
>>74198885
Don't listen to this retard, Solti sucks.
>>74199074
In terms of vocalism the Solti record is unmatched. The only exception might be the 1953 Furtwaengler RAI records with Flagstad. Say what you will about the conducting, the singing is without equal.... my only exception is Hans Hotter in Walkure... his voice was too weak by then. James Morris owns that role in the Met DVDs

Quatuor pour la fin du temps by Memessiaen.

>Siegfried is fucking Wolfgang Windgassen in the Solti ring
>unmatched
Sure thing buddy. The actual unmatched cast is the 1952 Keilberth I mentioned above. Not a single weak voice through the entire Ring, and all at peak form.
Yeah I'm a normie when it comes to classical. You can fuck right off.

The Threepenny Opera is a musical based on an opera and hardly counts as classical by anyone's definition.
>>74202797
Here's my other favorite Weill then. Also it's considered an operetta like the Merry Widow and HMS Pinafore.
