Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, despite being the most recognizable composer of all time, is also the most underrated composer of all time.

Mozart is underrated because the most extravagant praise is a gross understatement.
Landon Torres
I think he and Beethoven are about equal. Beethoven's most famous music might be slightly more heard overall, but Mozart has a few more pieces that are widely heard.
Chase Ward
Reminder that Bach is significantly more underrated than Mozart.
Xavier Cruz
>implying The "three Bs" include Bach, Beethoven and Brahms. Someone is criminally left out.
Henry Hill
They're all from Germany, though, which is part of the point. Mozart was Austrian and his name begins with M.
Levi Sanders
FPTMIU
Wyatt Jackson
Yeah, he should have been called Bozart and have come from a country a bit to the northwest. Fucked up how the universe conspired against him.
Levi Flores
Is it Boris Tchaikovsky?
Zachary Robinson
Actually it's Berlioz.
Nolan Ross
>Someone is criminally left out.
Michael Ramirez
betzold
Henry Miller
Bruckner ofc
Nicholas Wright
Boulez. Fucked up how they didn't include him.
Mason Brooks
>almost every new electronic and pop album is on vinyl now >literally no new classical or jazz albums are except reissues
anyone else feel the pain?
Joseph Morales
>needing new releases There's literally centuries of classical music m8.
Asher Roberts
And there's less than a century worth of decent recordings.
Ryan Jenkins
Is it bad that I don't have recording autism? Obviously some recordings are better than others, but I've never felt a desire to hear every single recording ever.
Mason Ortiz
depends on the work, honestly. it's much easier for me to get satisfied with certain works than others.
Jaxson Phillips
>vinyl
Christopher Ward
Hello fellas, I need some Early Music, anything goes, I like renaissance dances though. thank you.
Oliver Clark
Bartok is the only one worthy, he was literally inspired by all the B's plus Debussy
He writes hyper-complex music where the score is essentially an "area of struggle" for a performer. Listening to his music is like tooking at a mandelbrot fractal. Each time you re-listen to a piece you can zoom in to a new area and discover new details.
Xavier Long
completely and totally talking out of your ass absolutely musically illiterate
Logan Howard
you're not funny
Dominic Allen
You have that completely reversed, Sir Pleb.

Can you shut the fuck up you cancerous piece of trash?

Adrian Wilson
this cancer is starting to get toxic dont' feed the trolls
Luke Anderson
Am I a pleb for liking Shostakovich's 5th the most of his symphonies by far?
With Schoenberg, the only things I can bear to listen to are op 4 & 5 (verklarte nacht & Pelleas und Melissandre)
Do you think later composers like these feel more accomplished writing something more complex yet inaccessible? Why?
Gabriel Cook
...
Grayson Johnson
Just a side note: It seems to me that with art music, the most popular tunes and composers are usually the best. Whenever I stray off the beaten path I find myself generally bored, unimpressed, and uninterested with whatever I find It's not like the beaten path is super limiting so is this a bad thing?
Chase Ross
>Am I a pleb for liking Shostakovich yes
Jeremiah Hall
solo instrument > concerto > everything else
Camden Cook
what is this meme? are you guys just ranking your preferred instrumentations or are you (sinfully) saying that all tunes written in a particular instrumentation are inherently better than other?
Dominic King
/classical/ isn't very smart. They love to rank things that really dont require ranking.
Jeremiah White
I'm starting to see that. I pop by here a few times a month and never find much I thought I'd try and inspire conversation but I only got one guy who responded as though ultra superior
Ian James

Elijah Jenkins
what the fuck is it that you think you know that I don't? I do this professionally and I'm about 100% sure I'm more knowledgeable than you
all you have going for you is your own self-deluded notion of your "superior taste"
