[Nerd] Classical Composers[views:4241][posts:17]______________________________________ [Dec 23,2007 2:36am - Hungtableed ""] Anyone have a favorite classical composer? For myself, I'd say Frédéric Chopin. I've attempted many of his pieces which have been transcribed for classical guitar from piano and any trouble I've ever had playing anything else pales in comparison to the trouble I have playing much of his work. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqPsG7H0N3w http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzfmWzNU9XA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8X2jyoW0Fg |

| ________________________________________ [Dec 23,2007 4:05pm - DomesticTerror ""] my fave's are Mozart, Ludwig van, JS Bach, Albinoni, Saint Saens, Bartok, just to name a few. not a big fan of Chopin though. a tad too romantic for my taste. |
