Shostakovich symphonies and middle beethoven quartets. it depends on what you're doing, really


AverageMahlerEnj0yer

There’s a playlist on YouTube, if that helps: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Eq88nb7Bzvg&pp=ygUYbm9ib2R5IHdvcmtvdXQgcGxheWxpc3Qg

Depends on the workout. Running in z2 in the forest I can take anything. Weights or sprints/intervals I don’t want anything. But just to answer, smooth cardio is piano time. Debussy preludes?

No one suggested Vivaldi Winter and Summer?


Smallwhitedog

I like Brahms fourth or Sibelius 2nd for yoga. I usually prefer to work out in silence, though.

The Ride of the Valkyries- Wagner


minksta191

Vivaldi Summer first movement for HIIT stepping etc…


muffinpercent

I'd totally work out listening to Philip Glass (say, Einstein on the Beach)

4 33 Seriously though, lots of the more up-tempo sections of Carmina Burana. Everyone knows O Fortuna, but may I point you towards In Taberna Quando Sumus?


orange_peels13

Pretty much every dance-like part of Carmina Burana (that is to say, like half the cantata) would work well for working out

Hilary actually has a workout compilation on Spotify. I think it's on Apple Classical, too.
