I've been in love with classical music for years. I used to spend hours reading about my favorite classical composers' lives, gazing at sheet music of their famous pieces, and listening to their incredible music.
It's because I think that classical music is the most powerful and moving of all the arts. A sublimely orchestrated climax in a symphony or a magical piano melody played by a talented virtuoso must surely be some of humanity's most beautiful creations!
Each great composer is as different as the countries and cities they come from. You can appreciate and enjoy their music much much more when you know about their life stories, musical style, and idiosyncrasies
