Shit list

Historically, Bog was mangled by appalling interpretations to an ever greater degree than Chopin. So much so that even his formalism was almost imperceptible from the music itself. The 20th century phenomenon of Bog as music you listen to as opposed to an abstract philosophy you jerk off to like a /r/atheist is entirely due to one person - Glenn Gould. You'd be stuck with Barenboimiam trainwrecks otherwise.

Gould's approach to playing Bog is wholly applicable to Chopin's music too (that one sonata he recorded just to take the piss is irrelevant). I don't know where the fuck you get the idea that Bog and boggy music is "absolute" while Chopin's is somehow "not", when it's not even 100 years old and ENTIRELY the making of one person who was literally the most idiosyncratic and controversial pianist ever.

Lehar bump.

Why can't western European composers write a missal to save their lives? Pretty much every Mass setting after the Renaissance is overly-dramatic/theatrical/showy/gaudy. Mass is supposed to be a solemn occasion, not a venue for exhibitionism.

Here's a missal done right:

Why doesn't this man get more recognition? He trained Beethoven, Schubert and Liszt, for fuck's sake.

Are you a homosexual? Honest question. Vivaldi is the 'chick flick' of baroque music.

Berezovsky, Chesnokov. Taneyev.

Bogbillies' idea of emotion is just spamming augmented chords.

Is there anything kinda like this but better

Reginald Kell, Busch Quartet (1937)

All Baroque is sad because it's just empty counterpoint. A giant etude that in its own tautology.

>ad nasum
It's "ad nauseam" (lit. "to nausea"). "Ad nasum" is (grammatically awkward) latin for "to on the nose".

Subjective opinion: his music is somewhat boring, and I can clearly see past his formulaicity most of the time. This does not happen with Haydn, who also was one of the greatest pedagogues in history.

Amadeus is based on a Pushkin tragedy, the relationship between Mozart and Salieri depicted in the movie is completely inaccurate.

Also Salieri was way more famous than Mozart in his lifetime, but Mozart was the preferred choice by his contemporary composers.

Anyone know where I can find some PDF's of the Oxford History of Western Music? I've been told it's the ultimate classical music history books but the whole set will cost me 200 dollars in my country, something I can't afford.

You'll find it there, I just searched.

>Roomful of Teeth
Kitsch. Too gimmicky. They go from spoken word to barber shop vocals to gregorian chant style singing to mongolian throat singing (and more) all in the course of a couple of minutes. Nothing ever settles in. They whizz through vocal techniques just because. Good as an exercise, or good if you want a fast and quick reader's digest into various world music singing styles, but meh on its own merits.

Thanks a bunch, mate.

man, the people who shittalk liszt and chopin here clearly haven't heard some of their better work

of course if you spend all day listening to chopin's nocturnes and liszt's etudes they're going to seem like shallow garbage

youtu.be/0xU-p9wmSqg?t=399

>they sound like every other Liszt and Chopin composition
I'll be honest, I've tried so hard to resist the "chopin and liszt are bad composer" but I've failed: I truly can't find any merit in their music.
The only time I can appreciate it is when I play it. Reading the scores and listening to it it's a bore.

Bach definitely sounds more similar to other bach than chopin does to other chopin

actually no, i take that back

but I definitely wouldn't say all chopin sounds too samey and repetitive

Literally everything Bog ever made is based on this shit. You can copypaste parts of his first composition into his last one and no one would notice.

Are any of Liszt's transcriptions and paraphrases worth having a look at? I've been through Reminiscences de Norma and Reminiscences de Don Juan, but they seemed very shouty and clunky.

Fact: Mozart is underrated
Fact: Mozart is objectively the greatest composer of all time
Fact: If Mozart isn't your favorite composer, his music is literally 2deep4u and you have low musical IQ
Fact: Considering the vastness of his catalogue, and the fact that one can only truly appreciate him in depth. There is literally zero (0) reason to listen to any other composer than Mozart.

upboated xD

wow these are fun facts do u have any more?

I am a bogposter and I'm starting to think Mozart arguments, regardless of their nature, are deployed to derail a thread whenever Bog or Peathoven are getting smashed in the comments since Mozart's music is so frivolous and easy and talk about and/or make fun of.

>Bogh
>Peathoven

I am a genuine Mozart poster, and I don't personally hold neither Bach or Beethoven in particularly high regard. Bach being too academic (wherein his value is found) and Beethoven being too vulgar.

Also;

[FURTHER PROOF INTENSIFIES]

Petzold

He was twink faggot m8

>pic unrelated, a composer who made music that didn't sound like bourgeois sodomizing

is Rachmaninoff w&b?

>Beethoven being too vulgar.

He wasn't vulgar enough.

I hate this board so much...

Maybe his fugues (with some notable exceptions), but that's a problem of the form itself. When you look at his repertoire you find extreme variety and an unmatched ability of adaptation to each genre he touched.

>but I definitely wouldn't say all chopin sounds too samey and repetitive
I would. There are certain harmonic and melodic progressions and certain ornamentations that he uses costantly. Sometimes he deviates from his norm, but usually in a almost formulaic way, in the sense that those deviations will themselves be used tenths of times in pther compositions.

He had a very limited musical language. It is understandable, since he spent most of his time bedridded and the time that remained was to be divided in composition, studying and piano practice (he was a pianist first, composer second), still this does not change my response to his music, which is usually boredom if not frustration.

I'm like bitch who is your man's? ay
can't keep my dick in my pants ay

>beethoven is too vulgar

Why?

Anyone who says Bach sounds same-y hasn't listened to a lot of Bach.

How does key signatures relate to me practically?

I pretty much memorized all the major keys but how do I utilize that knowledge?

>2 buttons meme
What?
>beethoven's squalid aesthetic should be celebrated as a life-affirming cry of the blablabla
well, it was life-affirming, what arguments have you got to think the contrary? That said the bombastic, heroic aesthetic is something that he reserved for very few major compositions, almost never in his piano sonatas and string quartets.
Also fuck off for having used the adjective "squalid"

>period instruments were much quieter friendo
This strawman is wrong. The period instruments were quieter, but Beethoven wanted them to be louder anyway.
>inb4 fireman composer
Fuck off, the whole art pompier trope was meant to identify people in the romantic era who used loudness to hide a lack of sophistication in their composition. It has nothing to do with Beethoven's music, and loudness is not a flaw per se.

Tl;dr: why the fuck do I keep responding to baits
