what are you listening recently /classical/? me right now
Bentley Baker
Been listening to Strauss' Metamorphosen.
Bentley Flores

Parker White
I'm an autist but I want to be an INTJ.
It'll never happen. Too damn lazy.
Kevin Mitchell
>tfw beethoven Also Bach ENTJ? I could actually see it, he actually was a Chad after all, despite the memes.
Henry Williams
>INTP >tfw I have read the Beethoven's biography recently >tfw I literally have his same personality
Too bad I'm not a genius.
Joseph Hall
I scored a 141 on my IQ test a few years back--first one I ever took and it was impromptu.
I'm pretty sure it was just bullshit, though. A smart person wouldn't sit around on his ass all day doing nothing but listening to music and wanking occasionally.
Asher Gutierrez
INTP is actually the autiste personality and quite possibly one of the worst you could have.
I am INTP myself and I am doing everything to change.
Chase Brooks
intp but i relate far more to Reich and Ives
Carter Gutierrez
anyone got any pieces that sound like the beginning of The Firebird?
Benjamin Murphy
Crap, radiomelasudas-beaumarchais has gone.
Carter Adams
It's the best personality if you're a musician and you have someone else who can manage your career.
I'm fairly smart (not as smart as Beethoven, obviously), and being this autistic makes working on music so much easier.
I can just lock myself in my 1room apartment for one month and compose/practice piano non-stop and not feel bad because it is what I wanted to do in the first place.
Playing recitals and composing for commissions is a drag, I'm only at piece when I'm at my house, alone with my piano, a sheet of paper and a pen.
Angel Jenkins
I actually ended up completely quitting playing and composing 3 years ago now... Used to practice like 8 hours a day and write and listen for 4 more.
Dylan Howard
Schubert
Ryan Bailey
My local opera is playing Mozart's Zauberflöte tonight. Should I go Sup Forums? Or should I just watch one of the recorded ones in the folder?
Nolan Moore
Hey if you have the opportunity to go, then go.
Aaron Powell
There's still a lot of chance involved in becoming a universal genius, even if you are intelligent enough to be one.
Beethoven's father forced him to practice piano non stop under threats of beatings. If not for his father being a musician himself, Beethoven might have never became one.
Also if you look in history you'll notice that most great men came from well off families. That's a big prerequisite also, you can't really dedicate your life to something if you're worried about food and clothes.
Intelligence and talent isn't enough, there are a lot of serendipitous events involved in the lives of all great men.
Dominic Davis
man....
wtf

>Although popular in the business sector, the MBTI exhibits significant psychometric deficiencies, notably including poor validity (i.e. not measuring what it purports to measure) and poor reliability (giving different results for the same person on different occasions).[8][9][10
You guys are very stupid.
Joseph Young
It's a decent benchmark. I've done it a lot of times over the years and always came up INTJ or INTP. Like it gets the jist of what an individual's personality is like.
Isaiah Lewis
Post fugues.
Matthew Lopez
>giving different results for the same person on different occasions This is not really a criticism, it is supposed to fluctuate and subject to change over time and with mindset.
Josiah Campbell

Owen Wright
im very new to classical music. my only experience with it is minimalism (which I really like). what websites do you folks use to discover more classical music because rym is pretty bad for it
Blake Phillips
>my only experience with it is minimalism
sad
Lucas Turner
bach, mozart, beethoven
Jacob Wilson
this but exclude mozart
Blake Rogers

Luis Gomez

Evan Cooper
proof that Bach is superior to Mozart in every way
Matthew Hernandez
>Bach is better at writing symphonies or operas
Thomas Morales
You don't have to ''discover'' it. Classical music has been extremely meritocratic thorough the centuries.
As someone else stated earlier, listen to Bach (Well Tempered Clavier and The Art of Fugue), Beethoven (basically everything besides minor stuff such as menuets and songs) and Mozart (same thing, everything but minor works).
Owen Myers
Yep
Anthony Lewis
>tfw almost every great composer was a high functioning alcoholic >tfw almost every composer would have become a DUDE WEED if they were born in this century
keep in mind that mozart is actually underrated and that /classical/ is filled with trolls
David Smith
this desu, not even memeing
Dominic Martinez
Prove me wrong. Bach, Hadyn, Mozart, Beethoven and Schubert were all raging alcoholics (especially Beethoven). Why do you think that they would have not dabbled with soft drugs (that weren't available at the time) such as weed, lsd and shrooms?
Gavin Brown
Cause alcohol use and drug use betray different pathologies and personalities.
Especially analytic minds like Bach, Haydn and Mozart would likely NOT experiment with such.
Alexander Reed
>Hadyn and Mozart would have not experimented with weed
since i got into classical i can't even stand pop music anymore
it's all so primitive compared to classical
Brayden Sanders
you always get so asshurt whenever opera is brought up. contain your autism, sperg
Logan Flores
opera doesn't belong in this thread or board
Connor Price
Favorite opera? I'd have to say Wozzeck. Great stuff. Doesn't mess around at all.
Brody Kelly
Is ranking the 9th over the 5th the ultimate pleb move?
Brayden Stewart
Probably Parisfal or Pelleas. The latter was heavily influenced by the former so I guess it makes sense why I would like it. Very ethereal and all that.
Luke Gutierrez
"Our Prayer" isn't written by Brian Wilson.
Asher Young
>is ranking the literal greatest symphony of all time over a meme symphony the ultimate pleb move?
No. Ranking the 5th over the 9th would be pleb.
Kayden Wood
is what a pleb would say
Eli Cooper
>literal greatest symphony of all time
Ryan Smith
By this point the 9th is probably a bigger meme.
And objectively NOTHING tops the last 2 movements of the 5th
John Evans
Every musicologist thinks so.
Jack Walker
Musicologists are progressives and do not account for taste and temperance.
John Cooper
Try again.
Isaac Turner
Progressives in the sense that they see music history as a march towards a goal.
Ryder Richardson
Is there any database with recommended recordings of all the essential stuff?
Benjamin Jenkins
yep rateyourmusic.com
Brayden Lee
Otello is the GOAT
James Gomez
>recommended recordings
Carson Reed
WE
Gabriel Stewart
1st movement of the 9th >>>>>> Everything in the 5th
My bad, i got Gee (which has a section based on the Crows song) mixed up with Our Prayer
Jackson Gomez
Is Berlioz firetruck-core or not?
Kevin Adams
shut up
Jayden Cooper
I just wanna see what you guys think about him, is that too much to ask?
Christian Moore
>bog Cia agent >bog didn't live in the United states
Brayden Sanchez
Nah, the waltzes are fun and catchy but he just wrote those as practice pieces for teaching his students. It seems like the entire genre of waltzes gets written off by people. I read about R. Strauss getting trashed for writing one, and nobody really cares about the other Strausses outside New Year's in Vienna.
Camden Murphy
who r u malcolm gladwell
Joseph Miller
This piece might be a musical sophistication litmus test. It was kind of weird the first time I heard it. Now it sounds positively romantic. Same with Verklarte Nachte and Grosse Fuge
Jaxson Taylor
INFP might be worse Those of us who are just un-autistic enough to really like people and desperately want to connect to them, but are still too afraid to do so
Matthew Cook
>parents sign me up for classes when I was 8 >always use sheet music and play solo >I got pretty good >now in college >couple friends play together >they find out I play piano and want me to play with them >they find out I've been playing for over 10 years >they probably expect me to be a god >tfw turns out I can't improvise and can't even a simple blues in a band setting
Owen Lewis
Improvising and interplay is a skill unto itself. I came into this from the other end, with a jazz background so I've struggled with the opposite.
Nicholas Flores
Madame Butterfly
Luke Allen
Which one of you was the dummy that tried to make a new thread?
piano for ~15yrs here - grew up taking lessons only playing gospel tunes and hymns like a good southern boy then later took lessons from an old jazz pianist.
Can't play classical music worth shit and don't know any jazz tunes but I can improvise really well i think and read sheet music perfectly fine.
Wish I got trained for classical music, though. I'm 22, think it's too late in the game for me to get good at classical music?
