What the fuck am I supposed to post here?

I just wanted an excuse to post that awful image desu

your hair

>GOAT Bartok
>great in Mozart
>GOAT Beethoven 9
>GOAT Verdi requiem
What else can this man do?

Too bad his Bartok is in unlistenable sound outside of the Piano Concerti

i dunno about that, his bluebeard is in stereo as well and in ok sound for the time (though it suffers from being in German).

didn't think the mono recordings sounded particularly bad. they just need better equalization probably.

This sounds pretty good.

He was GOAT in Beethoven overall

Shame for the subpar sound

Anyone have some good symphonies or concertos to listen to if you want to get into classical?

scaruffi.com/music/essentia.html

Why don't you read the OP you stupid dumbass?

I'm not sure if what he posted was more accessible for early listeners or more complex.
Thanks for the reply.

as a rule of thumb, apart from inclination, follow a more or less chronological order when listening, as it might help to hear what composers were incorporating and reacting against

Do you guys like Wagner? He's great.

pretty much the best, yeah

thanks for the tip, I will

Need romantic composers, already got Satie

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Romantic-era_composers

But what ones are most enjoyed in this circle?

why do you care

Because demographically speaking we're pretty similar more likely than not, and that might mean that we enjoy the same stuff.

This way I'll have a sort of shortcut to finding stuff I like.

people disagree about everyone here

I personally would recommend you to pick either a random composer or go with the most famous ones. (Brahms, Chopin, Liszt, Schubert, Beethoven, Mahler, etc.) "This circle" will shit on everything. Except renaissance, but that's because the memers' taste isn't good enough.

If you want specific recs about a composer be sure to ask.

Just like a lot of people here enjoy Erik Satie - Gymnopédie No.1

Thank you

Listen to Mozart instead,

No problem.

Why

Mozart is pretty damn good.

Why

To question further, why is he so famous?

His competition was shit.

Care to elaborate or point me in the right direction?

Mozart's fame derives from the fact that he was a child prodigy and died at an early age. What about Haydn, J.C. Bach, Gluck, etc.?

To be honest, I cannot give you an accurate response as to why I consider Mozart's music so good, I am no musicologist. I just like pretty much everything about him. His orchestration is superb, his harmony is really good and his melodies are wonderfully captivating and lyric (at least to me).

That's something to consider.

I thought Bach was famous because he wrote The Well Tempered Clavier

J.C. Bach is one of J.S. Bach's sons.

J.S. Bach is famous for his fugues and contrapuntal works, mainly.

>Gluck
I want this "Gluck is a good composer" meme to die.

Do you listen to Bach? What're some of your favorite pieces?

youtube.com/watch?v=ho9rZjlsyYY
Is my favorite, but it's all I've listened to from him. It is included in the end of the movie rollerball, and I associate it with the power of an dystopian elite.

Gluck is great though. Singlehandedly reformed opera and was a huge inspiration for Mozart, Weber and Wagner.

I don't really listen to Bach that much. I can tell you what I enjoy the most:

Goldberg Variations
Well-Tempered Clavier (Books I & II)
Six Partitas For Solo Keyboard
Toccata in C minor BWV 911


That I've heard that is really good:

Mass in B minor
The Art of Fugue
Six Cello suites
Six Partitas For Solo Violin
Most of his Cantatas

rbt.asia/mu/?task=search&ghost=&search_text=fuck off poly

No this is terrible advice. The harmonically heavy high Baroque is obviously not going to appeal to a beginner more than the simple melodies of the classical era.

How do I play the part circled in red?

Do I play F sixteenth note, skip the E flat, and then just play the rest?

its a grace note. play it just before the E, as if its squeezed in between the bars. the Eb will be played at the exact start of the bar, but the F will precede it by a fraction of a second

No expert but I believe you play the F and Eb as two 16th notes. I see this in performances of Mozart all the time.

ok actually I would like an explanation as to why people do this with Mozart

thats fucking gay how am i supposed to count half a second

Try using your brain, or getting one.

you shouldn't have to count anything, "fraction of a second" is just an expression.

Listen to some recordings to see what it sounds like, we're not your piano teacher

Reminder that Chopin is an underrated master of counterpoint and 2deep4plebs like Gould and poly

Proof!

Thats not a very good fugue

>those contsant misused trills

It's easily one of his worst pieces desu
Have a qt.
youtube.com/watch?v=FuPGDnzTx5Y

I agree, it just sounds weird when it's tied over to those three eighth notes. The next note is the upper neighbor so where exactly the trill stops and the next note begins is unclear. It's posthumous for a reason I suppose.

Mozart 40 or Beethoven 5 are good to get a handle on sonata form (just wiki it or watch one of the many explanation videos on Youtube)

Can someone link the previous thread? Where even is archives?

1. It's much older than that.
2. How DO keys work? You haven't told me.

Hey /classical/.
Anyone know where i can find Haydn's Stabat Mater? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

>memevaldi

>being a meme makes something bad
Top meme

>>being a meme makes something bad
The above statement not being true in general doesn't stop it from being true in this particular instance.

Fucking amazing user.
Thank you so fucking much!

The only way to keep this general alive is to relentlessly shit on G*rman composers.

Bump

>not liking Vivaldi
Have a heart.

I've been checking out HIP recordings recently. I dig the tuning, I dig the often faster tempi, I dig the lack of vibrato, but holy hell, the period instruments, especially the brass, sound like shit. This has got to be the absolute worst part about the le HIP meme. I have yet to hear a single recording where the brass hasn't sounded downright vulgar and awful.

They should just take period practices but play them on modern instruments.

/comp/ has written a piece - rate it

Not THAT much worse than the original.

Damn it, I can't find a full recording of Gould playing appassionata.

Post stuff that triggers bogbillies to make /classical/ great again.

it took all the talent on Sup Forums to put it together

getting angry at gould is impossible, though. he's too fun

Also:

How DO keys work?

lmao, this general.

It's akin to somebody starting a "rock music" general and everybody proceeding to discuss Radiohead, The Beatles and Led Zepplin with varying degrees of superficiality. You're all so, so embarrassing.

top kekkers!

It's pretty great though.

>I have nothing to add

Post great sextets, GOAT string sextet coming through

They really ought to record more of Palestrina's paraphrase masses. This and the Ave Regina Caelorum mass were both quite exceptional.
