I’m trying to get into classical 
music, but I can’t find any original recordings. All the music is performed by cover bands.

Took me a minute to realize it was a joke, and not that you were looking for classical music recommendations.

puts away neatly organized sheet music that i brought out before seeing what sub this is

GROOOOAAN

nice one, dad...

Take your upvote and go...

I grew up on classical music, Johann Strauss was my favorite and I've been to a few Andre Rieu concerts .

haha, very funny. Honestly now that I'm old, I actually do listen to classical music. Not all the time, sometimes.

Classical music is the OG DIY.

anything written in the past 100 years can found with original artists
