I’m probably the only one lol

But seriously, I also love the classical music from the Soviet Union (and I don’t mean just household names like Shostakovich).

    Jokes aside I don’t dislike classical but I’d be lying if I said I could have a conversation about it. Instrumentation, timbre etc sure I can engage there. But in terms of breath of knowledge on pieces and composers I am a dud 🙃

      I just started with /r/classical and then branched off from there.

      Also, all the compositions for a composer are out there.

      My suggestion? Do some exploration and don’t just go by the household names; the obscure composers are the best, in my honest opinion.

      Also, the Soviet Union was famous for its classical music. You can start there and listen to some songs and compositions while you do work on your computer or something.
