Name them, I mean like a real band with instruments. Clarinet, flutes, saxophones, percussion, etc. So what are your favorite orchestral/band/or solo pieces?

Mine are. *-)

Fanfare for the Common Man
The Planets Op. 32 - Mars/Jupiter/Uranus
March Slav
Symphony No.2 by Sibelius
Russian and Ludmila Overture
Russian Easter Overture
Pictures of an Exhibition
Bald Mountain
Firebird Suite by Ravel
Concertino for Clarinet by Von Weber


These are the ones that pop into my head right now. I bet I could think of many more pieces. :rolleyes:

Pictures at an Exhibition is EVIL I tell you! >:E

Anyway, I like Farandole, Adagio for Strings, Bartók's String Quartet No. 4 and Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra, a lot.


I also like The Planets. Anyone that doesn't should get thonked.

I saw a TSo concert...he had like a flying v violin, it was rad.

I like "Jupiter" a lot, I have a great peice by the Los Angeles Orchestra of that. Apocalyptia is awesome too, but just 4 cellos. FOtB is the raddest, especially on FFR.
