Dynamic playful and a bit sneaky orchestral piece written by Johannes Brahms. Brahms composed this track during the summer of 1880 as a musical "thank you" to the University of Breslau, which had awarded him an honorary doctorate degree the previous year. Instrumental, Classical Music, Romantic Period, Johannes Brahms
From a set of incidental pieces writtne for the 1787 play of the same name. This overture, powerful and expressive, is one of the last works of his middle period. Instrumental, Classical Music, Classical Period, Ludwig van Beethoven
Called "the most ferocious piece of music in existence" it evokes a battle scene of immense proportions and blatant dissonance. Easily Holsts most famous piece. Instrumental, Classical Music, 20th Century, Gustav Holst
Grand and dramatic, it is ideal for scenes of conflict and triumph. This fourth movement is filled with blaring horns and rushing passages and scurrying figures. The movement describes a dream in which the artist is executed for killing the love of his life. Instrumental, Classical Music, Romantic Period, Hector Berlioz
