if you want to see how it's done look at pasternak and his sonata

Beethoven

I've been meaning to listen to more classical/art music, but I haven't yet. Should I start with Bach or what?

hmmm

beethoven
stockhausen
third choice is always changing but currently it's berlioz

(you)

>I don't listen to a lot of classical because i'm not 70+ who can't live with change.

i really hope that's not how you look at art because if so that's atrocious

Yes, me. Claire is the most talented female artist at this moment. Prove me wrong.

> user has found greatest 3 composers of all time

/thread

Bach
Beethoven
Mozart

sorry those are the only ones ive heard of

No.

Schubert
Prokofiev
Boucher

Each one amongst the true greats of their respective century.

>stockhausen
thanks for the lol

Why you should think twice about painting the walls in your house anything

Very sad that most of Sup Forums can't even name 3 composers and has to resort to memes!

stfu?

beethoven
scriabin
schonberg

as i said look at pasternak to see how its done

author of dr zhivago and the sonata shows he probably could have made a fine composer too

id start with a range.

try something from all eras. look at the essentials charts.

>Stravinsky
>can't live with change

The man spent his whole like trying to change art itself.

>only 1 mention of Mozart in this whole thread
Further proof that Mozart is underrated.
Mozart
Schoenberg
Bach

If your answer isn't Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven, your opinion honestly shouldn't be taken seriously

Bach basically invented equal temperament as we know it today. Because of this a lot of his music shows off key shifts and and it's really the first place that tonal and atonal relationships are established.

Next listen to Mozart. Mozart is a fucking baddass. Mozart introduces a lot of motif like concepts, phenomenal key shifts. What Bach did to tonal relationships, Mozart did to musical motief.

From there you should checkout Beethoven. Beethoven is the last classical composed. He is also the first romantic. Beethoven ends one era in music and begins another.

Next you should check out Hector Berlioz' "Romeo and Juliet" and immediately following that you should listen to Richard Wagner's "Prelude from Tristan und Isode"

Wagner introduces concepts like leitmotif which are still used today in film scores and rock operas like The Wall

After Wagner music becomes increasingly more atonal with composers like Strauss and Rachmaninov and Stravinsky and Schönberg.

We also get american composers in the beginning of the 20th century like Copland, Ives, and Gershwin.

Leonard Bernstein had an excellent series of Harvard lectures called "The Unanswered Question" (after an Ives title)that looks at this in depth. Y'all should watch it:
