My favorite piece in this class has been The Great Gate of Kiev. I enjoy very majestic sounding music and enjoy the styles of many Russian composers. I think many of the sounds present in this piece are also present in Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture.
I played the 1812 overture in orchestra my junior year of high school. I really enjoyed it.
