Like some advice...
I've recently had some ear treatment, long overdue, trhat has pretty much repaired my hearing to normal. I'm looking for some help from classical musicians.  I've never heard music properly before, only through a hearing aid, so i want to listen to something great, Mozart, Chopin, Tchaikovsky, something thats beautiful to listen to.  Asked a few rl friends and the best so far is Lithium by Nirvana, so the bars set pretty low thus far.

Wow, that's wonderful to hear. :]

If you want beautiful, maybe try giving Steve Vai, or Paul Gilbert a listen.

Just go out and explore. :]

Mozart's Requiem and Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata.
That would make a really good beginning.

Steve does some classical renderings.

that is true, but most of his stuff is heavily orientated on extravogent guitar solos and whatnot (like joe satriani) and it could become a little intense at times, especially for someone who wants to hear classical music.
im just saying that the style is completely different, although he has done some classical renderings....hes not really your go to guy if your into mozart and beethoven

Sounds good.

Different genres of music can give you different feelings too. With that, a mere genre contains subgenres. Classical music can include marching band, concert, orchestra, and my favourite, trailer music.

Hope you enjoy what you've bought!

Chopin, Satie, Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, DeBussy.

Then there's always things like Wes Montgomery, Django Reinhardt or... Frank Sinatra and Shirley Bassey.

Then there's always things like Pink Floyd and Genesis

There's so much music out there from 1700-2009! Listen to as much as you can!
