I like classical music but there are many genres I find to be more compelling. However, I'm a huge fan of neo-classical music. The examples you posted were excellent. I loved every single second.

Having said the above I must admit that I can listen to all three movements of Moonlight Sonata everyday. To me, that is the epitome of classical music and I wish more composers would have taken that route towards classical composition.

There are some really good alternative composers out there, too. I'm no expert but I have a friend who is, I'll ask him for some recommendations and post them. I quite like Debussy but he's still quite classical. Schoenberg is really cool, too - he developed the twelve tone method, in which the composition plays through the twelve musical tones, never repeating a tone until it's played all twelve.
