[@nolanbowen8800]

I was once a cowboy/country boy. I felt those long haired (yes, it was that long ago!) guys were something to look down on. Then I went to Ricks College and took humanities from Ruth Barras. She changed my life. We had to listen to some of these classics. Once I listened to a Nocturn (probably from Chopin), and I felt the night. A few years later when I had a cassette player I got some classical pieces. I was depressed one day and had pulled over. Beethoven's 7th was playing. It was the 3rd movement. By the time it was over the depression was gone. Thank you Ruth Barras, thank you Beethoven, and thank all you great musicians! They've all passed on but they know when we listen to them. Thank you people for putting this on.

[@slavomt5832]

Chopin was a genius. His music goes straight to your heart. Great melody, finesse and sounds still contemporary . LOVE it ❤❤❤

[@ianlowery6014]

Chopin didn't love it. On his death bed friends played the piano near the bed. They tried playing Chopin, and he said: "Not that, give me real music, give me Mozart".

[@darrylbatchem8985]

Chopin's music really touches the human soul because he suffered in life, and in his suffering he wrote music of passion and angst. Unlike Mozart who had opulence handed to him on a plate, and was probably poisoned by a jealous husband.

[@Omega_Mark]

When you are Austrian and realise that more than half of the pieces were written by composers who had strong connections to your country...

[@4kFilms-DM]

Great!

I think Frederic Chopin - marche funebre "Funeral March" is very "popular", but maybe in a different kind of way.

This is a list of 25 of the most famous 250 chosen at random.

[@amecarethqc6652]

Shostakovich waltz 2 should be around 13 in that ranking though

[@pfizerpflanze]

There are two videos with 83mln views, one is the André Rieu performance in Wien and one has the still thumbnail. To this I would mention the fact that because of KZbin Kids lullaby has several Billion views. I don't know what sort of videos the author chose to make this ranking, or how he managed to find this list. In my opinion he searched for all famous classical pieces one by one to check the views, but I really don't know. Edit: for example the 83mln "O mio babbino caro" is a performance including André Rieu what a coincidence

[@ron88303]

The "ranking" is based on number of views.

9:43 ah the nostalgia of the ice cream truck playing this song, as a kid I had no idea it was Beethoven until I got older and got into classical music

A bit surprising that no part of Grieg's _Peer Gynt_ ever made it into this list.

[@vilmathomas5158]

[@ukrainer7723]

Surprised to not to see the Toccata E fugue in D minor by Bach.

[@ДмитрийБрылов-ж6к]

Пианино для этой великой вещи очень мало...

[@Johnadams20760]

[@cuihuayuan7358]

My favourite piece is 13:50

[@mjyan220]

Mine too

I have heard these classical music pieces sometime ago, but have no idea who wrote them. But visiting different cities in Europe made me aware of the geniuses behind the melodies. Visited Poland last summer and learned about the life and music of Chopin from his museum in Warsaw, and was in Vienna last December and visited the former home and birthplace of Mozart. Maybe next learn about Beethoven and Bach.

Hey guys: please use the correct English abbreviations. There is no 21th; 22th; 23th - it is 21st (last two letters of "twenty-first"); 22nd (last two letters of "twenty-second"); and 23rd (last two letters of "twenty-third"). That's how those abbreviations work.

[@jerenhummiyewa1839]

Haha yeah, i didn't even notice that 😄

[@alixlouis4841]

Thank you for the correction.

As if there's nothing more important to worry about...
