Where can I download all the classical music on this playlist for free?

Take asked:

I was checking for laptops on the Dell website & this caught my interest.

It’s a bunch of classical music. I was wondering if there’s anywhere I can download those songs for free.
Edit: No to Limewire. Should have said wanted a website.

Does the Zune store sell classical music?

Azathoth asked:

I know that iTunes is the best for classical music, but the 80GB Zune costs as much as a 60GB iPod, so I’m going with my wallet.

Could I download mp3s from Napster or a site like that and still put the music on my Zune?

I don’t have a Zune yet so I can’t just find out.

Shifre asked:

I’ve listened to Moonlight sonata (I fell in love with the first movement) but I’m not quite sure what the words movement mean.

I’ve even spotted it in Rodrigo Concierto de Arenjuez… I’m confused.

fly.like.a.bird [RA] asked:

By recognised i mean that they are really famous and most people have heard them (on the tv and stuff).

Mainly Viloin and Piano pieces, and they can be modern or really old. Thank you in advance =)

Is playing classical music for my 7 week old good for his development?

David S asked:

We have Comcast and we always put on the Classical Masterpiece channel on when we are feeding the baby, or whenever he is sleeping. It is on more than 10 hours a day I would say, how does this help his development and what else can we do?

Soaring asked:

I was looking through the forum and found a majority of questions where on technique and theory, since I don’t know a whole lot about either ( YET! ), I decided to ask a fun question.

Who do you think was the most influential person in your musical upbringing? Your first teacher who instilled the love of music, or your parents who took you back and forth to lessons? Please share!

I’m looking for a way to find music similar to the opening music in “CBS Sunday Morning,” if that description helps

Classical Music from Splash. What is the piece played by the trio and then by the music box in Splash 1984?

Filed under: Classical — Tags: Chopin Piano Concerto, Classical Music, Trio — chatyak @ 3:40 am

curtchow@sbcglobal.net asked:

It’s not Prelude to a Summer’s Day by McKay or Chopin Piano Concerto #1…Opus 11.
Any ideas? I don’t know how to contact Ron Howard since that was his film and he knows the answer. Anyone have connections with that movie that they can find the answer?
