Hi all,I'm about to expand my horizons here. Having been pretty much exclusively a jazz/rock guy, I feel like its time to pursue other musical genres. So I want to get started in classical music, problem is I have no idea where to begin. In general I'm partial to large symphonic works (as opposed to the smaller scale chamber music), with a particular fondness for Beethoven's 9th. At any rate I was wondering what the big pieces are, the standards, the essentials for every classical library. I'm looking for a place to start building my collection, any suggestions?
Thanks, as always, for your help
Cheers,
Sebastian
