Although I wasn't brought up with classical music (my parents loved musicals and so do I) from about the age of 22 I used to go with a friend on Sunday evenings to the Popular Classics concerts at the Royal Albert Hall - it cost 5 shillings to stand up in the Gods, and we heard some wonderful stuff. Came back to classical music in my 50s and now listen to Classic fm most of the time.
I love the 3rd movement of Rachmaninov's 2nd Symphony, so romantic! Actually I love most of the Romantic Russians - Tchaikovsky, Borodin, Rimsky-Korsakov, Khatchachurian. Grieg's Piano Concerto is fabulous, as is Beethoven's Violin Concerto. I always said I don't like opera, but went to see Madame Butterfly in the round at the Royal Albert Hall some years ago and was blown away - The Humming Chorus is sublime. And then there's Mozart ....
I couldn't live without music even though I can't play or sing. It takes you away from the here and now to somewhere timeless.
