Music Recommendations


Most readitional classical music doesn't do it for me. I realy like work by James Horner, Danny elfman, etc. What other artists along this line of Classical Music would fit my tast? Are there other composers that are more dynamic ?

I would try Korngold and Waxman their music from famous movie's is absolutley right up there.
If you want dynamic, try Mahler's 2nd, 3rd and 5th should do the trick. Shostakovich's 5th and 7th symphonies. Others to consider - Copland(pick any symphony or el Salon Mexico), Prokofiev(Romeo and Juliet), Stravinsky.
Based on who you have said that you like, I would suggest that you pick up "The Yellow Shark" by Frank Zappa, as well as "LSO - Zappa". I think you would really like it, if you also like Danny Elfman who was surely influenced by this music. Then, I would check out Bela Bartok, Edgar Varese, and Igor Stravinsky, whose music influenced Zappa. Bartok's Concerto for Orchestra is a necessity in any serious music collection, and I highly recommend it.

Cheers.
