Heavy Metaller needs some class ical .

Okay, okay, I'm 33 years old and I still love heavy, speed, and death metal. I might never grow up :), but I'm willing to give some great classical recordings a try. I was hoping to get some good recommendations on the top 3 or so classical recordings on CD and DVD-A to get me started. Being an adreneline based music listener, you'll obviously want to recommend high energy stuff that is wonderfully recorded to save my soul from eternal damnation. :)

So right Kitch29. For the lead guitarist in your life also play the Heifitz recordings of the concertos by Sibelius, Walton, Bruch, Mendelssohn and Brahms. (The order is based on my experience with several HM guitarists)

Although i only listen to 200 year old dead guys on movie soundtracks,you can find classical trained musicians like joe satriani,yngwie malmstein and others that do modern versions of classical music.I will try a few of the above if only for the sake of argument in the future.

Malmstein's Concerto for Electric Guitar and Orchestra is an interesting example of how close many Metalurgist's techniques intersect with standard classical compositional methods. While hardly one of the monuments of western music, each movement is in a different classical style and should be of interest to any guitarist.
