| Right now I'm listening to Ravel's Bolero. Can't get enough of it. Odd, because the other stuff I've been playing the hell out of lately is Saliva (been on a bit of a metal kick). Can anyone point me in the direction of some more good classical music, especially with a martial beat? |

Check out Paul Hindemith's "Variations on a Theme of Carl Maria von Weber" - the fourth movement in particular is a very spirited "militaristic" march. Try Gustav Holst's "The Planets" which opens with "Mars, Bringer of War." Tchaikovsky's "1812 Overture" complete with cannon fire. I prefer the version with the choral hymn at the beginning. That's a start. |
