Ahwell’s 100 Favorite Music Selections

Because if I posted it on my music forum I would get shredded to bits for posting a ranked list...

Here goes.



100. Strauss: Four Last Songs

A stunningly beautiful masterpiece, one of my favorites of Strauss. Some background: Richard Strauss was a German composer who lived through World War II. He was very, very, old by the time he wrote this, and you can totally hear it in the music. It’s beautiful, uplifting, but often bittersweet stuff. Not many old composers could write something so fresh and new.
