What do I like to listen to? 

I chose four works that changed the course of music history such as Beethoven's unsurpassed String Quartet No. 14 (opus 131), Wagner's 'Tristan und Isolde' with the famous, until then unheard of Tristan chord and Stravinsky's revolutionary 'Sacre du Printemps'. And, of course, Hector Berlioz's "Symphonie fantastique," written two years after the death of Schubert and three years before the birth of Brahms. It was first performed in 1830 and immediately symbolized the musical avant-garde. Finally, I also enjoy listening to the music of John Lennnon, who managed to innovate on a completely different musical plane, even after his time with the Beatles. These are compositions that still touch me.
