    Classical music is like any music, some of it is uplifting and beautiful and some doesnt do it for me, maybe you should try it though and see for yourself

      I have, my mother used to listen to classical music all the time.

      Incredibly dull and uneventful.

          Yes Tchaikovsky - 1812 Overture (Russian lol) Here’s a recording featuring actual cannons https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbxgYlcNxE8 The piece celebrates the battle and subsequent Russian victory over Napoleon’s invading forces in 1812. The original also had real church bells ringing to celebrate the victory.

            Iirc, Tchaikovsky wrote his 1812 Overture rather quickly to commemorate the defense of Russia against Napoleon and wasn’t too thrilled with it himself. I believe he called it noisy and without artistry, but I’m prone to collecting myths, so please do check my work.
