Ya got to love orchestra! I love string instruments. Something about the peace yet ... darkness it create makes me love the sound of it.

I love Bach's music.

Aye...Orchestra music is good. Especially the dark sounding stuff. People are surprised when I say that I like it a lot. (I guess it's cuz I love punk and hardcore.)

One of the reasons I love soundtracks is because of the orchestral music - orchestral music is capable of expressing so much emotion - I dare say nearly every emotion, and this is one of the reasons I am so drawn to it. So many of the great composers of the past have produced breath-taking scores - Carmina Burana is one of my favorites, by Orff. You guys should check it out, if you like darker things. I wish that I could write for an orchestra, but knowing all the different instruments, their ranges, all the things that go into instrumental color - its a monumental task, especially to do it well. But when done well, there's nothing like it.

The Orchestra!?! I love the Orchestra. I love getting to dress up in sweet suits and going and acting all smart and sophisticated. And the way people look at you after something cool happens and they are clapping and you are like "Yeah dude! That was totally awesome!" and you do an air guitar...thats priceless.

Ahh....good times, noodle salad.

I really like the freaky minor choral stuff, like Mozart's requiem and Orff's Carmina Burana. real gothic sounding. Is it just me or am I morbid?
I also like vivaldi. and handel. And chopin. And beethoven. And...

Ah, don't get me started on all the wonderful variety of instruments; I could go on and on about it. ^____^ (Much of the music I write is orchestral, by the way. ^_~ )

I like orchestra music too.. Bach is my favourite composer as well. I really like music that incorporates the harpsichord, organ, or violin..
