My absolute favorite classical peice from Rachmaninoff, his Piano Concerto No. 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8l37utZxMQ Quite a moving piece that cycles you through different feelings as the movement changes its pacing.

Chopin is my favorite classical composer by far. I love basically everything he ever wrote, though the Nocturnes are my favorite, as played by Ivan Moravec especially.

It's just the most beautiful music in the world IMO. Incredible melodies.

TBH Chopin is probably the closest thing I have to a "favorite artist" when it comes to music.

For all the fame and success that Paradox has garnered throughout the last decade, their breakout hit was the long-distant Europa Universalis 2, and there is almost unanimous agreement (at least as far as those who have played it) that it has the finest soundtrack of any Paradox game. Here is the from Mozart's [url=http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL7C230555501C7407]String Quintet in Bb major, K174, your inception into the enlightenment and a personal favourite of mine.

I'll throw out a recommendation for Holst: The Planets, as performed by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. I found their forward and powerful performance of Mars to be especially impressive.

Mars, the Bringer of War

What a way to bump a thread with a 2 hour orchestration.
