Heyya.
Recently, i've been watching a Japanese drama/movie - introduced by my piano teacher, Miss Florence, and many of her other students. I'm so glad i watched it. It is an awesome series called 'Nodame Cantabile'. Of course, for those of you who learn music, you would know what Cantabile means.
As you can see from the title, this series is all about classical music (Mozart, Beethoven, Bhrams, George Gershwin, Chopin, Liszt, Schubert... you know, all those), ochestras and it all happened with a bunch of talented students in a music college in Japan. It is awesome. Hilarious, yet meaningful at the same time. The movie/drama was originated an anime and manga, but later on became this real life Japanese music drama - if that's what it's called.
Anyway, besides being here promoting 'Nodame Cantabile', i'm here to give you guys a glimpse/ ear-full of classical music with full MTV by Waltz Disney Fantasia 2000 as well. Below are the videos i adore so much since i was 8.
Dance of Hours
The Pines of Rome
Rhapsody in Blue (Because i couldn't emb it, i decided to put the link here)

Now all these are great music, music which i had grew up with and is very fond of composed by brilliant composers. I respect these particular music and i hope anyone who saw these videos can find the perfect angle of it.
