Classical Music For A Dark Night

[TheWickerFan]

I have that Romeo and Juliet piece on my list too; sometimes it's called Montagues and Capulets sometimes it's called Dance Of The Knights kind of like Night On Bald (or Bare) Mountain. As if finding certain classical pieces wasn't hard enough they have to use different names. My daughter asked for Offenbach's Infernal Gallop and it took some time for me to figure out she wanted the Can-Can.

I'm still going mad trying to figure out the name of that music used in the trailer for the movie Cronos.

Symphonie Fantastique is a very spooky piece. xx -Think 'Sleeping With The Enemy'.

Someone with an educated daughter- am impressed. Mine will listen to and loves going to the ballet, but its all light breezy stuff.

Oh the Whole of Mozart's Don Giovani- Opera goes horror. Studdied this at Uni and its a good take on faust. And all Wagner is sinister x;)

The ballet is wonderful. It's great you have a daughter who's interested in the classics and not just Top 40 hits.

I'll have to put more dark, gothic classical music on the scary music thread.

That would be wonderful- give me some more music to chase up. Thanks
