Classical music is such an amazingly large range of emotion and expression and yet many people only know certain peices and regard them as the best or their favorite and I am confused as to why that is? If you claim to like classical music I believe you should expand you library.
These are the common pieces that I have found over-rated and/or over used by people as their "favorite":
Eine Kleine Nachtmusik
Pachelbel's Canon in D
Fur Elise
Moonlight Sonata
Know I realize these are regarded as masterpieces, but honestly If you listen to classical music then you would generally get tired of these same 4 pieces when you've heard them 8 billion times.
I just want some of your opinions on why this is how it is in today's society, why classical music has fallen by the wayside so much that about 75% of people will say 1 of these 4 as their favorite classical pieces.
Thanks :D
