>implying schubert isn't romantic garbage

Do you listen to classical music on your headphones or on speakers?

headphones

Not even his best quartet.

>implying if you had friends they would refer to you affectionately as "tubby mushroom"

Hahaha, "romantic garbage". Clearly you are not properly educated in music, to make such a simplistic and stupid statement.

who /heavenlylength/ here?

youtube.com/watch?v=nnnbHJgLQzg

My favorite is Mozart K 499: youtu.be/65WyWFPGmzU

>underrating mozart

anyone have some charts I could use to help me navigate the classical landscape?

I don't know about an absolute favorite, but this is one of em...

m.youtube.com/watch?v=q5yGzooHnoI

I suppose this is a bit of an obvious one, but it must be posted...

m.youtube.com/watch?v=Gx2KlpV_ZOk

...

not that guy but do you have anything for the romantics?

What does /classical/ think of classicalcdguide.com/ ?

Headphones

Where should I start with Verdi? Should I watch the Operas first or listen to them before watching them?

Watch. Start with the Kleiber/Domingo Scala performance of Otello.

What does classical think of Tchaikovsky?

If you like him then listen to him. I personally find him rather nice to listen to, but he's not my first choice.

The only opinions you'll see here are memers shitting on Tchaikovsky and the rest of the supposed "firetruck core".

I haven't listened to him yet, I was just curious. I imagined the response would be negative given my quick read through of his Wikipedia article. Where does the firetruck core meme come form anyway?

does anyone have a flac link to the koroliov art of fugue recording? all links are down

He pretty much embodies everything I hate about the Romantic period. It's not that I don't like any Romantic composers, but Tchaikovsky is much too sentimental for my tastes.

Having that said, he was unequivocally a brilliant musician.

Sure, here it is:

Which Romantic composers do you like?

how do you guy like ravel? i think he's great.

disney soundtrack shit

I'm surprised this one hasn't shown up yet, my favorite string quartet by far

youtu.be/3m5ohobcKb8

are you gonna explain that or am i just being memed

My go to when I'm feeling like shit and need some music to feel like shit to. He writes the best melodies. Favorite pieces are the Piano Trio and the 6th symphony. Never really understood what was so great about the 1st Piano Concerto

Also cool. People consider him the poor man's Debussy and while I like Debussy more, I can still appreciate Ravel a great deal. Daphnis et Chloe is probably better than most if not all Debussy pieces anyway.

the latter

Mic controller,
lyric amova,
rhymes that im comin' so quick like a soldier,
so ya better know my name is Cover,
if you wanna test me ya better not go there,
if you go there ya gonna get messed up,
and have a face on you like a broken clock,
as I'm comin' you better get runnin',
you better get gone or your gonna get done in.

Totally agree with the OP, I have never seen death so well explored in music.

Thou shall not mess with this kid
A twisted misfit who joined the hit list
Its simple
A baby born gifted nothing but lyrics when pens are lifted
Raw talent makes me so sickness
Rhyming ability o so deceiving
this recipe for your evenin
Dowie mc's inside he aint leavin

Its time for me to take this livin the tide
To the next places dreams are made
Just listen
When the music plays
I got rhymes to spit and no time to waste
But please believe
what you see could be the best rhyming ability you've seen
ive proved that this guy can mc
(By showing how Rapid rhymes to the beat)
What you witness while I do this
Ill prove that great mc's exist
I insist
That this you don't miss
Blackout business at the best
Now there's no rest
back on set
The rapid mc live and direct
Put up the volume just a little bit
Gimme the beat and put a donk on it

Ayy, thats good that Tony!
Ahahaha sick!

i know you guys get probably get this a lot, but how would you rank the big three? bach, beethoven, and mozart.

Mozart > Bach > Beethoven

I don't get Mozart, help me

Beethoven > Bach > Mozart
Though my ranking is probably the most cancerous out of the 6 possibilities.

Mozart before Bach? Are you daft?

youtube.com/watch?v=Jt_Tc0DXcFQ
fucking duh

Listen to the minor key stuff. The appreciation for major key stuff will follow through after.

what are some non-western folk inspired pieces?

would you count eastern european/slavic culture as being non-western? If so, Brahms and Tchaikovsky were influenced by hungarian and russian folk music respectively.

Bach > Mozart > van Beethoven

NO

Beethoven > Mozart > Bach

Like that.

Mahler, Wagner, and Brahms are my favorite

>back in last place

literal cancer

>back

kek

Bach is better than any other composer. Except those two.

bach>beethoven>mozart

>inb4 underrating mozart

This

In terms of "greatness", Bach is incontrovertibly No.1... and I'm pretty sure Beethoven and Mozart would have agreed

"Not brook, but Ocean should be his name"
-Beethoven

Handel has generally been accorded high esteem by fellow composers, both in his own time and since.[86] Bach attempted, unsuccessfully, to meet with Handel while he was visiting Halle.[87] Mozart is reputed to have said of him, "Handel understands affect better than any of us. When he chooses, he strikes like a thunder bolt."[88] To Beethoven he was "the master of us all... the greatest composer that ever lived. I would uncover my head and kneel before his tomb."[88] Beethoven emphasized above all the simplicity and popular appeal of Handel's music when he said, "Go to him to learn how to achieve great effects, by such simple means."

Handel objectively sucks ass though lmao. Also Bach walked over 400km to meet Buxtehude.

>BIDF
A stodgy autismal over-conservative music professor and fugue-fetishist was teaching a class on Johann Sebastian Bach, known lardass.

”Before the class begins, you must get on your knees and worship the Baroque era and accept that it was the most productive period in the history of Western art music, even more than Viennese Classicism!”

At this moment a brave, impeccably dressed, inebriated contemporary composer who had just snorted a line of coke off a teenage classmate's back and understood the folly of a(r/u)tistic movements such as serialism and fully supported the preservation and continuation of the true old masters' legacies stood and held up a composition notebook.

”Professor, do you recognize this piece?”

The arrogant professor smirked quite Lutheranly as he leafed through the notebook. "Why, there's nothing in here but blank manuscript paper, you stupid pedophile. Is it 4'33"?"

"No. It's an opera. If J.S. Bach, as you say, is categorically the greatest composer of all time... then he should have written one, and it should be in this book."
The professor was visibly shaken, and dropped his chalk and 80-disc Glenn Gould boxed set. He stormed out of the room crying those Bach fanboy crocodile tears. The same tears all autismal fanboys cry when someone else's favorite composer is different from theirs. There is no doubt at all that our professor, an anonymous craven coward who balked at accepting responsibility for his Sup Forums posts by using a tripcode on Sup Forums, wished he had taken the time to appreciate music beneath its surface aesthetics and understand the incalculable grace and poise of the great Classical masterpieces and deep intellectual current which runs beneath their simple veneer. In the final moments before his suicide, he wished so much for a requiem mass to be sung at his funeral, but alas! The lazy Bach had neglected to write any of those, either!

I really like this copypasta format but this is one of the lamer ones. Needs more absurdity.

No. A string quartet is 2 violins, 1 viola, and 1 cello.

Fuck. Brb killing myself

but they are strings and there's four, don't be a faggot

so all of those string quartets with 2 cellos or two violas etc arent string quartets?

1. Bach
2. Beethoven
