progressive classical

If the playlist now includes classical pieces, I think you ought to include progressive composers' pieces as well. Specificlly, I am thinking of Philip Glass. I know that his "Glassworks" album is already on the list, but his symphonies Nos. 2, 3, and 5 are all easily available and are excellent listening. Another good album is "Passages," an album Glass did with Ravi Shankar.

BTW, while the first movement of Beethoven's fifth is the most recognizable, the fourth movement far surpasses it. You should include that piece, IMO. Also, the Egmont Overture, my favorite LVB overture, would be a great piece to hear too.
