    • @captainkev10
      @captainkev10 7 лет назад +2

      Fingamer™ Can't argue with that. I recognize Bach for that, but Im partial to symphonies and operas. So unfortunately Bach wasn't able to live past chambers.
      Mozart's symphonies dont stand out to me as much to me, at least, but I love his Requiem and operas (Verdi and Puccini def deserve a mention as far as operas go).
      Favorites? I favor Beethoven, but I'd actually say Tchaikovsky is my personal top favorite. His 6th gets me.

      I drew a T rex onto a projector in an auditorium at my school for the talent show with the Jurassic park theme playing at that age. Teacher's weren't sure if they could do that so I got the CD myself and brought it in. JW still never got royalties, but was definitely an interesting experience. Also I nailed that T rex, because I was an art god.

Picture star wars without the opening crawl or the most breathtaking scene visually with music luke looking at the twin sunsets him young and innocent a boy looking off Into the horizon with that fantastic score in the background. Chills!! Or raiders that ominous music when the ark is opened . Of course the theme and star wars opening crawl. He also did superman fucking legend !!!
