re: What classical music do you have on your Zune?
The majority of the music on my zune is anything but classical since I usually use it while driving. But I still have quite a bit, even if  it's a small fraction of what's on my computer. I have a lot of stuff on there by so-called minimalist composers: Steve Reich, John Adams, Philip Glass, and also Terry Riley's "In C." I also have most of my Kronos Quartet albums on there. There's also Sibelius symphonies, Copland's piano works, and those lovely string quartets by Ravel and Debussy. I have some excerpts and overtures from a few operas, but I also have a couple of whole operas on there like Bernstein's Candide, Kurt Weill's Threepenny Opera, and Osvaldo Golijov's recent Ainadamar. There's some avant garde stuff on there too. Like Morton Feldman's "Rothko Chapel," Pauline Oliveros's "Deep Listening" album, Berio's Sinfonia, and even Glenn Branca's first symphony for guitars.

There's much more, but those are just some of the choice bits.

They have the internet on computers now?!

Classical is the dominant genre on my Zune, although my play count doesn't usually reflect it, since I tend to use WMP or another player for it.  Beethoven, Brahms, and Mozart dominate.  Chopin and Tchaikovsky make themselves known, as do some choice modern compositions.

re: What classical music do you have on your Zune?
Most of what I have ranges from Renaissance to Early Baroque, consort, recorder & lute pieces, madrigals, etc; my latest phase I suppose. Its taking up about 3/4 of my Zune at the moment and there's too many artists & composers to list (there's so much of it available). I do listen to some Romantic & 20th Century music though.

A few of my favorite artists:
Anne-Sophie Mutter * violin Party!!! [<:o)]
Paul O'dette * lute
Emma Kirkby * voice
Anthony Rooley * lute
Michala Petri * recorder/blockflute
Eliot Fisk * Guitar
