BLUEGRASS
  • Alison Krauss & Union Station. Everyone knows "Man of Constant Sorrow" from the movie Oh, Brother, Where Art Thou?, but "When You Say Nothing At All" and "Atlanta" are wonderful, too.

CELTIC
  • Enya. Her music has become a bit commercialized and maybe even old, but they are still great compositions.
  • Great Big Sea
  • Loreen McKennit (& the rest of Celtic Woman)
  • Chieftains

CLASSICAL
  • Verdi's Aida

COUNTRY

  • Brad Paisley. He can pierce your heart with emotion ('Little Moments', 'Didn't Have to Be') or be uproariously funny ('I'm Gonna Miss Her').
  • Carrie Underwood.

MUSICALS / FILMS:

  • Phantom of the Opera (and many other Andrew Lloyd Webber works)
  • Camelot (and many other Lerner and Loewe works)
  • Sound of Music (and many other Rodgers and Hammerstein works)
  • Sweeney Todd (beautiful tone contrasts and contrapuntal duets and trios)

REGGAE
  • Bob Marley - Favorite Music - Pierce County Library Wiki
  • Spyro Gyra (Do they fit here?)

ROCK

  • Sheryl Crow.
  • U2. Is there a (recent) rock song that can compete with 'Vertigo'?

SACRED
  • I love to hear Handel's Messiah, including the Hallelujah chorus, and Unto Us a Child is Born.
