Good classical music.

...I like classical music, but dont know really what to look for. Anyone got any suggestions?

I like symphonic stuff... I am a huge fan of Apocalyptica (unconventional Symphony music) .

Anyone else like classical music?

If you like Apocalyptica, try Shostakovich.

you should just d/l some compilations full of different composers....it's probably the easiest way to figure out who and what you like.

Some of the classical CD's from Yngwie Malmsteen are incredible

Wow, that's a nice list, DJ. I'm not that familiar with classical music, but my favourites are definitely there (Rachmaninov, Shostakovich, Mahler, Strauss, Tchaikovsky, and you mentioned Mozart).

I missed Bach, though (yeah I know, that's not post-Beethoven)

If you're bored go here or, if the boredom is more serious, here.

@lapikas
Someone mentioned him already, so I decided include just one not-so-famous name that would get more attention.

And BTW, Erik Satie preferred to spell his name [Erik] with a k, not c, like I stated earlier.

ditto Satie

worthwhile:
Bartok's string quartets (6 of them)

It's not strictly classical but check out some of John Zorn's Masada stuff, esp The Circle Maker

Both Bartok's and Shostakovich's string quartets are essentials imo.

Here are some classical works I like:
  • Beethoven's 5th Synphony
  • Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven
  • Fur Elise by Beethoven
  • O Fortuna by Carl Orff
  • Ride Of The Valkyries by Richard Wagner (pronounced Ricard Vogner)

Maybe you'll like "One Winged Angel" by Nobuo Uematsu. ^_~ It's quite apocalyptic.
