Classical music for soundtracks

14 Feb, 2025

I love classical music and of course I like when it's use in media like videos, movies, TV shows, animations, etc., what I don't like it's that they always use the same music every time. I like Clair de lune you know?, but I'm tired of hearing it every time! there are so much music out there, you don't have to use Moonlight sonata for a million time.

So, I decided to make a playlist to share good classical music that I think it would be perfect for a soundtrack, maybe it can be helpful for someone thinking on doing a short film, movie and are looking for classical music or just good music in general that fits a scene.

I tried to make the playlist diverse so it can fit different moods: romantic, sad, happy, melancholic, mysterious, horror, etc. So I hope this playlist can be helpful for people looking for a good soundtrack or at least be an introduction to classical music for other people, because I swear classical music isn't boring ok?

A lot of the pieces I added are only a part of a longer piece, if you like some of them, take your time to listen to the full piece later! I adore all of them.

Here it's the list:

• Schuber Rondo in B Minor
• Tristesse (Chopin: 12 Études, Op. 10, No. 3)
• Britten: Simple Symphony, Op. 4: II. Playful Pizzicato
• Tchaikovsky: The Seasons, Op. 37a: IV. April. Snowdrop
• October - Autumn Song from Tchaikovsky's "The Seasons"
• August: Harvest Song
• Violin Sonata No.4 in A Minor, Op.23: I. Presto
• Britten: Suite for Harp, Op. 83: II. Toccata.
• Butterfly Lovers Violin Concerto: I. Adagio cantabile
• Guitar Sonata No. 3 in C Major, MS 84: I. Minuetto
• Jhula-Jhule
• La Moldau
• 5 Pezzi, P. 62: No. 1. Romanza
• Corta-Jaca
• Mazurka in C Minor - Inga Fiolia
• Schubert: Gretchen am Spinnrade, D. 118
• Shostakovich String Quartet No. 8 in C Minor (III)
