I love classical guitar, and I love the versatility of the Rondo Alla Turca.

Not exactly classical, unless you include jazz. The previous post reminded me of this rendition from one of my favorite jazz bands.

This, Beethoven's final Piano sonata is perhaps his most intense. Plagued by illness and financial difficulties it is an outpouring of passion that encompasses the human condition perfectly. Barenboim is brilliant here.

This is intense stuff from Shostakovich. Almost makes you glad to be human...

I like the 2nd movement (starting at 6:56) and 3rd movement (starting at 13:00) best.

"Beethoven makes you cry, mozart makes you happy, and shostakovich makes you sh** your pants, that's just the way the world works I think." Someone on Youtube comments.
