Think you don't like 'Classical'?

The list author says:
	"Quite simply, if you don't like this you're dead. A hair-raisingly exciting record."

The list author says:
	"'Alexander Nevksy' is by turns brutal and heart-rending. The Scythian Suite is mostly just brutal."

The list author says:
	"Yes, once upon a time I couldn't imagine anything more boring than organ music either. Then I took this trip."

The list author says:
	"Imagine the Third Symphony on steroids. And in a really, really bad mood."

The list author says:
	"Twisted, nauseous, ear-splitting. The perfect soundtrack to the vilest century in history. So far."

The list author says:
	"Pick any volume, they're all incredible. Consummate masterpieces played with exquisite detail. Spectral, micropolyphonic -- or just great."

The list author says:
	"There are echoes of Ligeti, Pärt, Gorecki and even Mozart here. But above all, echoes."

The list author says:
	"One of Messiaen's greatest piano works in an ideal performance, plus numerous fascinating early miniatures."

The list author says:
	"Two late masterpieces. The Symphony is actually a very morbid song cycle with a deliciously impressionistic score."

The list author says:
	"You don't need to be religious (Rachmaninov wasn't particularly) to find solace in this beautiful work."

The list author says:
	"Thrilling recordings from an outstanding, unpredictable talent."

The list author says:
	"Anderszewski painstakingly disassembles each piece to find out how it works, then tells us. Why don't all pianists do that?"

The list author says:
	"Don't know this particular recording, but the quartets are both exciting and moving and this young group is earning a good reputation."

The list author says:
	"Lloyd-Jones blows the (space)dust off The Planets, sweeping away the bombast and playing up the cosmic mystery…or something."

The list author says:
	"Well-received version of an inexhaustible source of musical intelligence. Buy other versions too."
