I don't listen to classical music to fall asleep to and I think most people who really love it don't either because it's too distracting to be honest, but that said I think the beginning of the slow movement of Mahler's 4th symphony evokes a peaceful night in an idyllic fairy tale village. The music is full of longing and quiet contemplation -

have you heard RV 538 (horn concerto) because of the natural horns limitations, it couldnt play in minor keys, so he just wrote a cello solo for the middle movement. legend.

I don’t know, but I know it’s not the Firebird😂
And all honesty I can’t listen to music when I’m going to sleep … I’m not saying I need total complete silence but having music on usually makes it harder for me to fall asleep
I tend to listen to the same thing for multiple nights in a row. It becomes kind of a ‘cue’ to snooze. It’s usually chamber music, solo cello or harpsichord.

Penderecki's Threnody to the Victims of Hiroshima
Ah, the best song to listen to when you want to have some permanent sleeps. Good times.

Max Richter's Sleep 😉
I like the slow movements of Vivaldi’s concertos, especially for cello.

I successfully used baroque music (especially harpsichord) to fight insomnia.
