Digging Classical

Hello! Been crate digging for years, getting back into, I’m big into jazz, funk soul and the usual genres.

Just thinking a lot of my charity shops where I get most records have LOADS of classical, I know there would be some good elements but where do I start? Should I stick to orchestras or piano concertos? Any tips because I’ve brought some awful classical vinyl before with so much going on there wasn’t a clean sample I liked?

Cheers

maybe look out for some nocturnes by Chopin. i think they are mostly, if not all, sad solo piano. prob fairly conducive to sampling if that’s your thing.
