@Lithia Justice

You're here for nothing. That isn't a classical piece.

Revise your answer.

Mozart:

Piano Sonatas (my favorite is no.10)

Fantaisia in D minor

My least favorites:

Mozart's Twinkle Twinkle Little Star (I like the tune, but people are making HORRIBLE parodies of it)

Ravel's Bolero

Bach's fifteenth WTC fugue (just that of WTC, everything else I like)

My weakness has always been Renaissance and Baroque music - especially the Italian composers (Gabrieli, Monteverdi, Gesualdo, Castello, Vivaldi, Geminiani, Pergolesi, etc.)

And for some reason, I've never warmed to the French Impressionists. Debussy, Ravel, Satie and their contemporaries leave me cold, but I have no idea why...
