You know, it's hard finding music for wizards characters. There is fitting music for clerics, paladins, fighters, monks, and so on for the majority of the martial competent classes. However, I am struggling to find music that fits the tone that wizards/sorcerers have. I need music that fits the situation of conjuring beings from another plane or shooting lightning from my hands, or even just surging with phenomenal cosmic power as he makes his BBEG speech to the players. I love the pic related, but I haven't found anything like that in large quantities. Probably because my google-fu sucks. Wizard/Sorcerer appropriate songs? Anyone?

Should try hitting up some classical music, anon. Or go for something more whimsical that might fit your cosmic needs:

I don't know why, but a lot of electronic video game music sounds more magical and wizardly than orchestral or electric guitar music.
80s fantasy films and DOS games are other good examples.

Anything from early Black Sabbath actually...
The Magician, by Bruce Dickinson:

Don't procreate.

You are looking for soundtracks. I suggest soundtracks from games like Magicka, Cultures (for more shaman-like musics) or Dragons Dogma (some, not all).

I'm with this guy.
Wizards deal in secrets, so you need something that is as epic as it is mysterious.
Chrono Trigger's got some great music, and lots of remixes.

Here's the whole album.

Necromancers unite! Zombie Jamboree got your back. Nothing screams "Evil," like "escorting," the heroes out of your evil lair with undead background dancers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yasin1ULLvI
For the pyromancer with some spare points in bard, I present Great Balls of Fire. Pretty soon, you'll have friend and foe alike hot and bothered under the collar!

Ride on, magic muse. Ride on and please don't stop the magic.
OP here, thank you guys so much for this abundance of wizardy tunes!
I've always considered this to be the perfect song for a Lich or Demilich inacting his ultimate evil plan.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxgqUoHkzz0
My ultimate plan was for that song to be playing when a group of heroes finally got to Acererak in Return to the Tomb of Horrors as Acererak says...
'Let the Apotheosis... BEGIN!'

Metal is the quintessential wizard music.

None but a group of misfits understand it, and said misfits all happen to grow long beards and yell incomprehensible words while the air is filled with smoke and the growling of horrible creeatures?

The song Black Sabbath itself is so dripping with occult atmosphere, it's fucking great.

Also, for some more spooky ass dark wizard shit, try Cultes Des Ghoules' Vintage Black Magic.
