This might be hard for some, easy for others. Pretty easy for me. I guess.
1) Concerto No. 1, In F Major: II. Adagio, J.S. Bach
2) Concerto No. 2, In F Major: I. (Allegro), J.S. Bach
3) Symphony No. 9 (Choral) Op. 125 In D Minor: Molto vivace, L.V. Beethoven
Uh, actually, I only have three; but, as I buy more classical music, I should come up with two more. Heh. Then again, I could list more Bach, but then I'd be getting redundant.

It would depend on the day you ask, Lord Foul!
But here are five I REALLY like:
Beethoven's Ninth
Beethoven's Fifth
Mozart's Requiem
Rachmaninoff's Second (musical sex, complete with orgasm!
)
Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue
These are subject to change without notice, especially as Damelon keeps introducing me to new works. His beloved Schubert has some very fine pieces of music, indeed.

duchess of malfi wrote:Rachmaninoff's Second (musical sex, complete with orgasm!
)
Does this mean Rachmaninoff's First constitutes foreplay?
My Favorite Five:
1. Bartok: Concerto For Orchestra
2. Beethoven: Symphony No. 3 & No. 9
3. Mahler: Symphony No. 3
4. Bach: Goldberg Variations
5. Bruckner: Symphony No. 9

I suppose I should clarify the Rach pick...that would be his second symphony...he is better known for his piano concertos, and they are probably easier to find...

Thanks for the clarification, Duchess. Although, I think Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2 can be pretty orgasmic, too! (Uh, if you're in the right frame of mind...)
