I've always liked classical music but I didn't get seriously into it until a few months ago. I've been listening to a lot of stuff by many different composers. And the problem is, I like absolutely everything I've listened to so far. Like, I can't really properly judge because everything sounds pleasant to me. Do I have no standards? Am I ignoring any musical aspects?
Owen Baker
Just learn what sonata form is and you'll understand everything
Sebastian Collins
Before falling asleep I always enter in a zen-like state in wich I can hear full blown symphonies in my head. With some training I've learnt how to trigger this mindset at will.
Now, I don't know how to transcribe music, nor I have any sort of musical training. How much practice does it take to learn how to transcribe music from your head to music sheet? I'm sure I could give it 2 hours of practice every day. What should I expect?
Luke Collins
Do you ever get drunk and start conducting Beethoven in your livingroom?
Or is that just me? I must know, my girlfriend thinks I'm weird but I'm sure that's perfectly natural
Tyler Lee
I've never listened to classical. Where should I start?
Me and my classical-music friends played beer pong for a long time. Then sombody just turned the boxes on and Mahler 2 pressured the whole room. We started to groan the theme and rolled on the floor almost with the rhythym. And you thought being drunk and start conducting Beethoven is weird?
That should be your natral reaction, regardless of how sober you are.
Zachary Rogers
I agree, playing beer pong is very weird.
Oliver Davis
*natural
Brayden Peterson
Dope, thanks
Owen Cook
Lol you guys
Adrian Martinez
>Then sombody just turned the boxes on and Mahler 2 pressured the whole room. We started to groan the theme and rolled on the floor almost with the rhythym. Oh, so you performed Berio's Sinfonia?
Was Ride of the Valkyries such a meme before Apocalypse Now?
Owen Phillips
>tfw you don't know anyone who can appreciate music as intellectually as you do
Xavier Gutierrez
did you study music theory and compositon?
Anthony Bennett
Yes
Camden White
Same.
Adrian Parker
Hey, guys, how do I string quartet expert? Here's my start. Got the Bartok's and the Kolday's on the way, and as you can tell, I'm mostly into late-Romantic and Modern stuff.
Nicholas Clark
Do you study the cross section of music and mathematics?
Nathan Sanchez
yeah it's entry level normie-core which makes people dismiss it but it's still good
uranus is the best planet btw
Nathan Thompson
I'm not a Bauchtist.
Noah Powell
Hi, I just started listening to classical, and I was wondering why Mozart is such overrated pleb tier compared to John Williams.
Cameron Torres
The modern choices are fairly solid, Pacifica are a great quartet. You need Mozart, Haydn, and a better recording of Beethoven's quartets.
Ryder Diaz
Also if you like that Crawford Seeger quartet, try Ives' and Carter's.
Ian Brown
>emerson string quartet
M E M E A L E R T
Liam Brooks
Whoa, Haydn wrote a lot of fucking quartets! >Preconceiving that composers tend to write one quartet per Op >This guy did up to six per Op
Should I just get the lot?
Lincoln Roberts
>2017 >not listening to yourself improvising on Ondes Martenot as a primary source of music jeez this board is pretty pleb
Evan Wilson
No bullshit, what's the best complete set of Schubert's string quartets?
Jack Roberts
>Wagner's Tristan und Isolde is sometimes described as marking the start of modern music.
Is this fair?
Henry Garcia
no
Isaac Mitchell
I can kind of concur with that Uranus is the best, but I'm biased since I'm a trombonist that likes the high range and there's a really nice passage in it.
Jupiter is really nice as well.
Connor Evans
You big dummies.
Neptune is clearly superior musically
Luis Gutierrez
Concur.
You're fucking dumb if you don't see that actually
Eli Cooper
Obvious samefag is obvious
Samuel Gutierrez
>implying you have an Ondes Martenot I highly doubt it
The Tristan chord is often singled out, but really it was operas like Elektra, or Schoenberg's Verklärte Nacht that were the start of modern music.
Gesualdo was really the start, but he mostly went ignored.
Parker Watson
I really like Balay's Prelude et Ballade
John Parker
Guys? Should I get all ~24h of Haydn quartets, or is there some more easily digestible recording?
Colton Foster
what are your most beloved keys F#m, Dm, C#m, Fm, Eb are mine
Connor James
Can anyone actually respond to this question? I don't give a fuck if you think that the music I'm imagining is shit, I want to transcribe it. This is the first step I have to take to improve it, so keep your stupid considerations for yourself.
I mean, no one here knows how to transcribe music? Is this why I'm getting no answers? Are you guys all as pleb as me?
Hunter Morales
C minor and F major are probably my favorites.
Owen Harris
Gm, Am, D#maj and Emaj
Get on my level
Easton Walker
Go study music at college / university.
That or learn how to work a DAW or notation program, or ideally, both.
Nathan Green
Just get them all, they're all pretty good. You could focus on Op. 64 if you need to cut things down.
Jose Wilson
See? Still no answer.
At this point I'm 99% sure that no one here knows how to transcribe music. What a shame.
Brandon Collins
Do period instruments actually "improve" the interpretation? I don't care much for what Haydn had in mind when composing, just as I love Bach on piano.
Christian Ortiz
>Gould >not Koroliov for pedal-less interpretations >not Nikolayeva for interpretations woth heavy pedaling
Shit taste
Noah White
>no one here knows how to transcribe music write it down, get it? it it so hard? can't you use pen and paper, or at least a mouse?
Ethan Rodriguez
actually, just looked that shit up on Amazon, and it's $380 so I'll stick to a $35 copy without the historical flourish, thank you very much
Bentley Jenkins
>capitalistcuck use torrents
Lucas Walker
>gardiner >not klemperer with dieskau and schwarzkopf You are nuts if you really think that's the best one
Anthony Adams
Going to university will help you learn how to transcribe.
If you dont know how to read music, start with that. otherwise learn a DAW and stop bothering us.
Cooper Russell
My question: >How much practice does it take to learn how to transcribe music from your head to music sheet? >I'm sure I could give it 2 hours of practice every day.
Your answer: >go to university
Grayson Wilson
>How much practice does it take to learn how to transcribe music from your head to music sheet? a day or two, if you're really persistent. there's nothing hard about it when I was a kid, it took a couple of hours and some audio software, I quickly figured out how to draw notes in a piano roll
Connor Myers
use rutracker you muppet
Alexander Hughes
Some people like to own physical media and support the labels and performers.
Carson Anderson
Dm, Cm, Eb
Jayden Wright
The music you hear will be the same. If you want to fill your CD rack, dont complain about price to us.
Jason Lopez
Yes.
Lincoln Kelly
>when I was a kid, it took a couple of hours and some audio software, I quickly figured out how to draw notes in a piano roll
Wich is not what I'm asking for. You're clearly incompetent, just ignore my questions.
>yfw everyone depicts bogwig as an autistic bogbilly
Landon Perry
Thoughts on Gernsheim?
Isaiah Rivera
i only buy vinyl
Jordan Evans
what a bunch of fags
Tyler Adams
>incapable of holding a normal conversation, always shout at people >costantly sperg out for no reason whatsoever, always fighting with everyone >go for months without changing clothes or showering, people around him literally had to sneak in his house, throw his old clothes away and substitute them with new, fashionable ones >incomprehensible hand writing, uses lots of exlamation works (his conversation books are extremely funny, they're filled with ''WHAT?????? NO!!!!!!!!!!!!'') >do only one thing for his entire life (composing music since he was 7) >never had a girlfriend >had literally only 3 friends, and they were piano students of his >his house was a mess, there were always lots of chamberpots filled with piece and shit everywhere and he apparently didn't care about it
>I'm pretty sure Beethoven was the ultimate music sperg
>>his house was a mess, there were always lots of chamberpots filled with piss and shit everywhere and he apparently didn't care about it >tfw his house would've festered into a real life BOG had he been left to his own devices
CAN'T ESCAPE THE MEMES!
Nathaniel King
I think he was bipolar actually
Angel Ortiz
Yeah, one pole of his house was full of shit and the other was full of piss. He only found solace in music, where he synthesized them like no one else.
BBC Great Composers episode for Wagner and within the first minute the topic is antisemitism and the speaker a holocaust survivor.
Hunter Brown
Just listen to those youtube "best of" videos. Make sure to read the comments to see the plebs wollow in their own arrogance. Aka "i'm 12 and I like this"
