Classical music RULES.
I grew up a metal head (hug big fan) and studied classical piano and classical orchestration.
Truely, when you know how orchestration works, you realize just how much of an ABERRATION modern rock stuff is. LOL Ya, I love it.
In a modern rock mix there are instruments actually FIGHTING for sonic space and we have to go in and surgically eq them to have them fit well in a mix.
In classical, if it sounds like crap, instead of tweaking the hell out of it, you change the orchestration. What a concept!
