Any of you guys listen to classical composers?

It's a bit of a secret interest I've had since I was a kid when I listened to some old albums in my school library. In fact, though I taught myself the guitar I always loved the sound of the piano, just a beautiful instrument and would have loved to have been able to play it.

Anyways:

Beethoven- Piano Sonata 14 (Moonlight, Fur Elise, both very well known

Chopin- Prelude in E Minor, op 28 no 4, "Raindrop", "Nocturne". Perhaps an underrated composer.

Tchaikovsky, some Mozart of course. There are composers such as Richard Wagner who wrote many hour long compositions and he is far from alone, these guys were psychotic in their focus that it is extremely impressive.

Any of you into classical piano even if you can't play?

One of my favorites

My appreciation for classical music started with Saturday morning cartoons many Moons ago and only grew from there.

I can’t tell an Eflat from a flat tire but I just like to listen
