I am new to listening to "classical" music and would like advice on what to try next. I enjoy Beethoven, particularly piano sonatas-Waldstein, i also have enjoyed listening to Faure, Saint-Saens but i think i'm just scratching the surface here-what shall i try next???

Chopin was probably the best pianist in the world, I'd try him out, but they are a lot more complex then Beethoven's simple sonatas so if you want something a bit less complex and a piano I'd try Ludovico Einaudi, it's pretty good if you don't care about the complexities of how the music is made.

Vivaldi - The Four Seasons
Mozart - Piano Concerto No. 21
Bach - Brandenburg Concertos
Rachmaninoff - Piano Concerto No. 2
Gershwin - Rhapsody In Blue

And listen to Classic FM. They play loads of Baroque and Classical stuff.

It's very easy to listen to Vivaldis' Four Seasons. There are twelve pieces, each a month, if you like. Three for each season, each really captures the theme of the season. Also try the Brahms violin concerto, get a recording of Jascha Hiefetz, it's sublime.
