okay bud these guys are killing this thread so i'll help you, you're gonna want the Douay-Rheims, catholicism is the best way to go if you're christian (i'll elaborate on that if you'd like) and if not the Douay-Rheims, the Knox is good and also the St. Joseph Bible (aka the New American Bible) will do you good.

hope your crisis is solved. god bless.

hey bud, lifelong classical musician here.

learning an instrument is very good to start to love and understand classical music. also, if you have the chance going to a live performance of classical music should be good once you've started listening.

i'd recommend honestly listening to those "classical music 4 hour compilation" videos on youtube, and seeing what really piques your interest.

it's important to not that you shouldn't force a liking onto it, but you should also be very open. Mozart, Bach, Chopin, Hayden, and Vivaldi are the masters of the craft: start with them if you need a base. Move on to Wagner, Stravinsky, and the rest of the later guys further on. some of their stuff is far different from the old guys and some of it might not be too good, but some of it is true genius. good luck!
