Let me better explain what I mean by "upbeat"...

Orchestrated pieces always sound like they are telling a story. Like all stories, there's a range of emotions, tempos, and transitions, and can't easily be categorized one-dimensionally. However, even the greatest stories generally fall into one of two categories: comedy vs. tragedy. Both categories will have elements of the other category while still remaining predominantly one or the other. I guess what I'm trying to say is, I enjoy "comedies" the best when it comes to classical pieces (probably because I usually play classical when I'm working and it seems to make me more productive).

Will check out that recommendation. Thanks, little dude
