HELP NEEDED!

I have tried to get into classical music, but I find it very difficult. And then again, sometimes I
hear a pipe organ conserto or cello solo that just blows me away. I would very much appreciate
some pointers to interesting composers or compositions. I know I have a lot to discover, but the
field is so vast!
