I listen to many different types of music everyday. I love all kinds of music.
In my car, the buttons on my radio have a classical station, 3 rock stations and a jazz station.
I listen to KMozart (Our local classical station). Even they have their Top Ten list. When they start playing their commercials about how we're all going to get cancer and should call the City of Hope or where we should be buried, I, right away, switch over to a rock station.
Sometimes the radio just, you know...and then I'm not too lazy to put in a CD

I like Mozart as well, I haven't listened to enough to b real familiar w/ many others, but whenever I'm in the mood to b challenged, I like classical. It has a whole different vibe to it. Most of it is very calm & relaxed, and usually the (DJ's?) r calm and relaxed, which couldn't b any further from the vibe of most radio.

I listen to it almost every day and I'm not even an old granny I find it to be the most dark, evocative, poignant and endearing type of music there is.

I'm a very big fan of Claude Debussy, Yann Tierson, the great Mozart of course, Puccini, Bach, Yo-Yo Ma, Michael Nymen, Giuseppe Verdi to name but a few. Classical music touches upon the 'divine'. Without sounding over the top that is. It often transcends race, creed and culture.

I'm particularly partial to weeping flutes and solemn violin concertos. I find it utterly despairing when people ask me how I can listen to Classical music because they find it 'boring' or 'depressing'. It surprises me how close minded people still are to this music.

Alot more motzart recently and beethoven, 2 obvious choices i know but they're quite popular with my music tech sylabus and i've really began to get more into classical music having to score it for hours on end and what not.

I noticed I've got this deal going on where if I'm driving out in a rural area, I listen to classical, and when I get into the city, I need to hear lyrics, like I think my classical taste is too uppity for the average joe. I always feel like I have to meet society halfway like that. I don't like society, but I usually keep an open mind to what's going on in it, that being said having an open mind around a lot of the people I meet sends me fleeing in another direction.

I listen to classical music alot, I think it's one of the most enjoyable forms of music there is. Only classical music can capture emotions as diverse as love and complete misery as perfectly as certain classical songs can. Has anyone heard Chopin's first nocturne Op. 3? That is the sound of pure, raw misery.

My favorite composers include Frederic Chopin, Nicolo Paganini, Philip Glass, Franz Liszt and Richard Wagner.

Favorite compositions are Chopin's first and second nocturnes Op. 3, Paganini's 24th Caprice, Philip Glass' 5th Variation on Metamorphosis and 'Dies Irae' by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
