Re: Lots of suggestions already, so I will only comment on your own post

I guess what I meant about Beethoven's Ninth was...the fact that although It would start off very mysterious and deep, then it would be gone, replaced by a mental picture of an Old English Castle Courtyard.

Of course the theme at the beginning is very good, and it does return...although not without the other sort entwined...I didn't say I didn't like it, but it is difficult to stay into a piece when it releases your sense of awe with a bit of "noble dance style" tucked in between the great parts.

But maybe that is the way with classical music...or perhaps it takes a trained ear to recognize the value in the parts I seem to get turned off by.

As for being chamber music...well, I don't know what I meant by that :) I think I may have been thinking of the wrong piece when I said that...the thing I am listening to now is not chamber music.
Unless my perception of the definition of "Chamber Music" is skewed (a valid possibility).
I have Berlioz' Symphony Fantastique...or at least part of it. I think it is the 3rd part...not very...stimulating.

I am working with a jumbled collection of music, so I have a lot of music files, but I haven't been able to listen to them all.


As for tone poems...no idea even what they are, much less having them...or being able to identify them if I did.

I have several Tchaikovsky works...The Nutcracker, 1812 overture (didn't mention, but a good song, as most would say). However I don't think I have his symphonies that you mentioned...

Thanks for all the advice and recommendations,
