I’m probably the only one lol
But seriously, I also love the classical music from the Soviet Union (and I don’t mean just household names like Shostakovich).

I would love more suggestions from y’all! I love classical but I find it to be difficult to explore as a genre. I am not a musician.
However, I love Michael Schäffer’s lute music. it has such a contemplative and intimate feeling. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6qJVz1zsmhI
You don’t approach classical the same way you approach other music. And, anyway, I would suggest maybe going over sounds, tones, rhythms, etc. that you like and asking around what music genres replicate them.
I didn’t mean I don’t know how to approach it. I mean that I don’t know how to find more music besides what I happen to come across. But my lack of musicianship has limited my knowledge on how to find new classical artists. So I wouldn’t know what tones or rhythms are or what are the different kinds that classical music uses, but i guess i could start by using the vocabulary you have presented to me. Thanks!

You can also try last.fm.
But I would kinda just type in stuff in Google like “most underrated classical composers” and then look at the complete composition list for each composer. For example: “Gustav Holst list of compositions” brings up several resources with the composition list. From there? You mostly just use YouTube or maybe Spotify.
Youtube mixes of the different music time periods (classical, baroque, romantic, impressionism, 20th century, jazz), then find your favorite composers out of those, and do more mixes.
