    Alright, classical music geniuses. Where should I go next if I want to go one level deeper than Bach/Beethoven/Mozart/Chopin?

        Depends on if you’re looking for solo /chamber music / symphonic works / opera. My advice: start with the Russians. The romanticish -era composers: Tchaikovsky (Pathetique symphony, piano concerto #1), Rimsky-Korsakov (Scheherazade), Borodin (Polovtsian dances)

        Then move to Prokofiev (Romeo and Juliet, Piano concertos 2/3), Rachmaninov (Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini) and Stravinsky (The Rite of Spring, Firebird).

        Lastly, I strongly recommend Shostakovich (Symphony #5, Jazz Suite #2, String Quartet #8) Recently heard the 5th and I’m still awestruck by his courage to basically write a requiem for the victims of Stalin’s purge under Stalin’s nose. Incredible history behind the piece.

        Or a completely different direction....listen to the Mahler symphonies! Start with 5 — sounds like the Star Wars music — and 9. Mahler is a rabbit hole, though, so you’ve been warned. If you love piano, Chopin and Liszt, no question.

        Last rec! For me, understanding why musicians make the decisions they make or how a composer thinks about a piece helps me appreciate the music that much more. Leonard Bernstein does a great job of this, so highly recommend: https://youtu.be/9Nx09pigZRI  andhttps://youtu.be/8fHi36dvTdE

        Replying to @AustenAllred

        Oh boy. In my personal opinion, Chopin is highly overrated. Start with the Russians. Scriabin, Rachmaninoff, and Medtner. Arvo Pärt is one of my favorites. Along with Smetana, Granados, and kapustin. And get some lovely American composers like Griffes, Copland, and Gershwin.

        Rimsky-Korsakov... some of the most incredible music in existence and relatively few Americans know of him

        Second Mahler and add Berlioz ("Symphonie Fantastique" a good place to start).

        Anton Bruckner, Eric Whitacre, Gustav Mahler, Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninoff, Respighi, Ola Gjeilo, Gerald Finzi. But it's hard to go "deeper" than Bach, a true genius.

        I'd check out anything Rachmaninoff. In particular Piano Concerto #2, 3rd movement--incredible. Btw, Chopin is my all time favorite composer, also Beethoven's 7th floors me every time.
