hip hop is boring and pointless, and this is why you cannot spell.

Rap and hip hop is not music.
I think the instrument you are referring to in The Devil's Trill is a violin. If that is the instrument that you enjoy listening to, try searching for violin concerto recordings that you can listen to. This may also help you figure out who your favorite composers are. I don't particularly enjoy Beethoven either, however I really enjoy listening to Rachmaninoff (sometimes spelled Rachmaninov) and Liszt. Their music is passionate with beautiful melodies. Some of my favorites are Rachmaninoff's 3rd Piano Concerto, Prelude in C# Minor, and Prelude in G Minor. Liszt' Liebestraum and Un Sospiro are beautiful as well. These are all mainly for piano, but perhaps they'd help you figure out whether or not you like these composers. Good luck!
Demanding ones, huh...
Devil's Trill is an exciting music, isn't it? Did you look up the history behind it? Tartini got it from a dream that the Devil played this really haunting, beautiful yet diabolic melody over and over again, and when Tartini woke up, he tried to put it down to notes, but merely able to flesh out some of the melody, much to his disappointment.
Music, whichever form it may be, is never pointless. However, if you're referring to Baroque, you'd be bored to death. It's a lot of slow, sweet-sounding melodies you would positively hate. And unfortunately, most of classical music are as such.
Why don't you try instead Carl Orff 's 'Carmina Burana' or Igor Stravinsky's 'Rite of Spring'. See if you can get your groove with those.
Give classical a chance. And if it fails, you can simply give the CD to someone who likes them.
I suggest you listen to Bach's violin concertos, they are fast and energitic
I also suggest you listen to celine dion 's song "all by myself", taken from Rachmaninov's second piano concerto
Ok, so Baroque floats your boat, and right now Beethoven doesn't. :-)
How about see what you make of something completely different, 'a bit of muscle' in the form of Prokofieff's third Pianoconcerto op.26? The first three links are MP3s of the three movements it's made up of (best to download these: playing 'off the page' can get ugly if the Net is busy):

On the darker side of life, you could try a taste of this (it normally plays continuously, but the MP3s have been broken up in two for convenience):

Have fun! (And I hope some or all of these whet your appetite!) :-)
You will not like my answer. As someone said , hip hop etc. is not music.
which is correct.
First give up this non-music entirely in order to clear the terrible banging noise our of you brain.
Then start easily and slowly with some quiet easy slow classical with no heavy beat. Listen and learn. Go on from there with more comlplex sounds, but still easy and slow.
Listen and learn. But, don't under any circumstance listen or be even exposed your former bang bang noise.
PS there is no excuse for bad spelling. It is a sign of laziness coming from listening to the noise.
James,
You might be interested to know that there are some old-school hip hop and R%26amp;B songs that sample classical music.
For instance, Coolio's "C U When U Get There" sampled Pachelbel 's "Canon in D," and Robin Thicke's song "When I Get You Alone" sampled Beethoven's 5th Symphony.
"Symphony in X Major" by Xzibit is based on one of Bach's "Brandenburg Concertos" and "Intergalactic" by Beastie Boys quotes Mussorgsky's "Night on Bald Mountain" and Rachmaninoff's "Prelude in C# Minor."
For a great introduction to classical music, I would recommend http://www.kickassclassical.com
I think you might like the more modern classical composers -- 1900 and later. In the 1900's, composers started to "bend the rules" of composition and tonality, so there are some very interesting, original sounds that aren't at all like earlier in music history.
Some earlier posters made the assertion that rap and hip hop aren't music. Well, it depends on what your definition of music is. The intricate rhythms and rhymes are definitely musical, and it takes skill to perform them. I do get impatient with artists that simply sample other people's music and change things slightly. That's not composing.
Start exploring the modern composers, I think you'll like what you find.
Well, I would consider Beethoven to be the best of classical music, but seeing as you don't like that I'm not sure ... I like the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, but they're more of a symphonic rock type. There are quite a few classical-like pieces though, such as Christmas Eve In Sarajevo or Wizards in Winter, which is quite upbeat and interesting, showing the fast and slow sides of "classical." Also, I like the works of Mozart and Bach, and most of the other older composers. They're works are mostly the basis of classical work :)
Check out "Carmina Burana" by Carl Orff and "The Rite of Spring" [Le Sacre du Printemps] by Igor Stravinsky.
They kick butt! :-)
I'm going to start by saying that it's fairly presumptuous of someone to think that they are the authority on what it and is not music. (I hate country, but it, unfortunately, is music.)
As for baroque music, you might like Vivaldi's violin concertos (the Four Seasons is pretty famous) and check out some of Bach's fugues, from The Well Tempered Clavier. I find just about anything by Bach to be pretty awesome though.
