Is Karajan's 1963 rendition of Beethoven's 9th the definitive recording of this piece? If not, then what is? Thanks.
Nolan Brown
>definitive recording lel I like Fricsay's 9th better.
Justin Thomas
where the fuck do I find a good recording of bach's violin concertos. The one in OP is from the 30s so the quality is shit. Maybe i'll have to resort to just listening to youtube uploads cause I can't find a good recording anywhere.
John Morales
Fricsay's is better and so is Furtwängler's from the Lucerne Festival of 1954 (I know because I have great taste, remember)
Luke Martin
You're welcome pleb.
Jordan Morales
Is the concept of a definitive recording silly?
Lucas Young
A bit. There are GOAT recordings of certain pieces that would be hard to top like E. Kleiber's Figaro and that Mengelberg Mahler though.
Henry Cook
maybe if there are a lot of good performances, sure
but some works aren't so popular
Jaxson Harris
What's some good classical for when my mouth tastes like shit because I may have licked a vomit-covered sink while sleepwalking, or maybe that was just a dream and my mouth tastes bad because of allergies?
Anthony Nelson
Think of it like "mysterious," but not in a good way, because the secret behind the mystery is probably completely fucking disgusting
Christopher Young
I'm not asking for a recording recommendation I'm asking where I can find the recordings so I can have them on my hard drive
Camden Watson
hm sounds like galina ustvolskaya to me
Logan Taylor
>spoonfeed me illegal downloads of music that's easy to find and even easier to buy
No.
Blake Ward
:c
Joseph Wilson
Where were you when you realized Bach was the indisputable GOAT?
isn't there a lot of overlap between concerto and chamber music?
Tyler Edwards
slsk newfriend
Matthew Myers
>slsk in 2016 >stealing music in 2016
no wonder these threads are shit none of you even buy music
Bentley Robinson
I prefer BWV 1053.
Only during the baroque. Classical concerti were well-defined as soloist+orchestra.
Kayden Hughes
I buy and share music sometimes. Though only SDF and Harpsichord have super rare recordings, probably because of Jew magic.
Joshua Bailey
I buy music. He was asking how to. I didn't use to when I was poor. I'm still pretty poor tho :(
Ayden Long
Thoughts on Mozart's horn concertos? They're pretty swell.
Mason Cruz
4th is divine
Joseph Collins
What is Harpischord? I can't find it when I search. There's too much actual harpsichord music
Thanks for the interesting sites btw
Wyatt Hughes
>Mozart
fuck off
Angel Cook
Not super familiar but I like them. Only heard the recordings by Dennis Brain, shame he never recorded a whole cycle with anyone other than Karajan. Pleb
Xavier Stewart
What's the problem with Mozart?
Hudson Bennett
Namefriend. He goes by "Harpsichord is GOAT" or something like that. Associated with SDF and Taxes. Haven't seen him for a while though, although I haven't been here too often myself. His favorite Bartók quartet is No.5, which is the "right" answer.
Eli Richardson
I see. Thanks for the reply.
Justin Foster
You have 10 seconds to prove that you don't have shit taste.
Thomas Mitchell
Górecki's 3rd symphony is a meme.
Tyler Nguyen
Unfortunately I do have a shit taste in my mouth right now. I've tried brushing and downing water but it still lingers.
John Anderson
I don't underrate Mozart
Elijah Perez
Pleb
Hudson Phillips
I only listen to recordings with fuzz and a coughing audience.
Logan Lopez
is this album any good
Jordan Perez
Listen to it and see for yourself.
Jaxson Cooper
got a download for it?
Aiden Baker
it's on slsk
Landon Peterson
Is there a technical name for having one singer off-stage for a call-answer (responsory?) portion? I'm thinking specifically of Monteverdi's Gloria Patri (from Magnificat).
where were you when you realized that sviaotoslav richter's is the best PIANO interpretation of the well-tempered clavier and that doing a strict, accurate stoccato interpretation is pointless unless you're using an actual harpsichord for which the WTC was written in the first place? youtube.com/watch?v=K_85VWhfSRA
>harpsichord for which the WTC was written in the first place >this meme again

How old were you when you finally grew out of Mozart?
Leo Reyes
I'm no articulate critic (i wish) but I feel and barely think that there's so much depth to this performance. I hear new things every time, its like this is the way it was always meant to be played.
Jonathan Wilson
>shitposter that doesn't like Bach is located in a shitty third world country and/or Germany
pottery
Leo Russell
Reminder that music is only considered a serious artform because Bach saved its reputation after Mozart almost ruined it with his unlettered populism.
Praise Bach.
Charles King
Is there a chart for the most complex pieces of classical music? If not, any recommendations>
Kevin James
The only good complex music is Bach. There's a lot of modern and contemporary music that's "complex" but it's basically memeshit. Stick with the good stuff.
Jonathan Rivera
Just Listen to Ferneyhough, Carter and Stockhaseun
Bach is my favorite too, but some of Mozart's stuff is also really good.
However I noticed that having listened to Gould's interpretations of Mozart's piano sonatas colored my perception of them. When i listen to more 'faithful' performances of them they kind of bore me, maybe gould just made them better.........and this is coming from someone who loves bach but doesnt' like gould's bach recordings.
Like, listen to gould's recording of the 2nd movement of mozart's piano sonata, then listen to the way it's actually meant to be played. Maybe I'm just crazy but gould's version is so much better, and that goes for pretty much all of gould's mozart piano interpretations that I've listened to.
Asher Evans
***2nd movement of mozart's 16th piano sonata
Logan Brown
The Ficino ensemble.
Adrian Ortiz
yeah Mozart is white bread unless someone adds a little "spice"
Joseph Adams
>tfw shostakovich wrote his first symphony when he was 19 >tfw schubert wrote the piano quintet when he was 22
Gabriel Hill
You must remember they went through rigorous formal music education at a far younger age . That said, there's nothing stopping anyone with great musical talent from writing works of such quality at such an age.
Jason Turner
Why the fuck is Mozart getting shit on so much in this thread?
he has pretty recognizable (good) taste and good wit. honestly he was one of the funniest people in these threads.
>tfw enescu had already written like 15 decent compositions by 19 his octet is way better than Mendelssohns.
Jace Ramirez
It's not tho
I mean I don't think he's my favorite but he unquestionably wrote some dope shit
Charles Diaz
...
Lincoln Powell
the trout quintet pales in comparison to his late chamber works
and early shosty is pretty mediocre
>Bartók didn't write his first string quartet until he was 28
Kevin Sullivan
you know, i have to admit, i still don't know how i feel about shosty-sempai's symphonies in general, though i love all of his string quartets like i have listened to the 4th symphony maybe 10 times and the only thing i know for sure about it is that i definitely don't like it? yet i will probably listen to it again? also the fact that schubert's late chamber works are better =/= the trout quintet is bad? ok?
Matthew Long
what are schubert's best chamber works? I've only heard trout quintet and death and the maiden and I like them both a lot, though I like the trout a little more than death and the maiden
Bentley Wright
the fucking string quintet
i basically told my friend the other day, i want the second movement played at my funeral
Mason Flores
>and early shosty is pretty mediocre
Shostakovich is pretty mediocre. Half of his symphonies are dogshit. If he didn't have any fucking ideas he should have been a professional and adopted serialism like everyone else with a brain.
Evan Ward
Do people think this is good? Even the musicians look confused.
Levi Green
i think it's important to listen to his music with the knowledge in your mind that he had a complete lack of artistic freedom not that it makes them better, or excuses mediocrity, but it's unfair to compare him to a composer who could do whatever they wanted
Joshua Perez
personally i prefer the 1st to shostys cheesy 5th
when i first started listening to classical, i listened to the 10th nonstop for awhile. dont really listen to shosty outside of chamber works that much anymore.
his later quartets. d703 is pretty underrated.
his quintet is his best work though in my opinion
Matthew Allen
Pleb.
Jace Gonzalez
Schoenberg liked Shostakovich a decent amount actually
