Not really, no. What sort of heavy metal do you like? Metallica? Iron Maiden?
Yes to both.

And the word "classical" encompasses a good 400-something years of music! That's quite a broad statement on its own. Could you name some composers?
Yes. Yes I can. *waits* Oh you mean you want me to, ok....
Bach, Beethovan, Mozart, Pachebel, Saint-Saens, Schubert, Tchaikovsky, Vivaldi, Wagner. I like opera - Pucci and Verdi spring to mind although I also like Mozart's Magic Flute despite it being overwhelmingly cheerful.

And while you named what you assumed are polar opposites, what are the things in between? Jazz? Alternative rock? Salsa?
Not so much Jazz, no salsa unless you count the stuff on the 'Now Music' cds.
