>tfw there's not even a single second that is not excellent
Ravel, you fucking danzy lazy piece of shit. How could have you possibly written so little music with a brain like yours? You should have devoted every single second of your life to composition: given your genius, it is only fair to say that humanity was entitled to it.
Andrew Price
not everyone does it out of differentitis.
Some pieces really speak to the soul. Granted, a lot of fuckers out there are listening to it because they think they automatically qualify for patrician status, but don't stay far from classical for the opposite reasons that attracts douches to it, ie i (don't)want to be different
Luis Gomez
maybe he prioritized quality over quantity. Isn't it better that he produced no bad music ?
Carter Campbell
No, because now we're stuck with only 9 hours of it.

LOLWUT,jpg. 16 hours is the correct figure. You should be happy, faggot -- I've just almost doubled the Ravel catalog for you.

Is this classical?
Levi Williams
No? Why would it? It's just a well composed operette... very subtle even as far as opera goes.
Lincoln Mitchell

Joseph Lewis
Yes. Modern classical.
Carter Edwards
>>Who wrote them better?
>Beethoven
Agreed. My favorite is 1. Favorite string quartet would have to be Op. 132 in A Minor. This piece is what inspired T. S. Eliot to write Four Quartets.
>Some credit this quartet as T. S. Eliot's impetus to write the Four Quartets; certainly he was recorded in a letter to Stephen Spender as having a copy of the A minor quartet on the gramophone: 'I find it quite inexhaustible to study. There is a sort of heavenly or at least more than human gaiety about some of his later things which one imagines might come to oneself as the fruit of reconciliation and relief after immense suffering; I should like to get something of that into verse before I die.'[5]
>Aldous Huxley in his novel Point Counter Point makes extended reference and description of this quartet in the late chapter concerning the death/suicide of the character Maurice Spandrell.

HELP, WHAT IS THE BEST RECORDING OF MOZART'S K.563 STRING TRIO?!
I've heard the Grumiaux version 1000 times and want to know if there's something better. please
Carson Hernandez
I don't know about "better" but I certainly enjoy the Heifetz/Primrose/Feuermann version greatly.
There's also a very nice period version played by the Trio Ricercar.

I write poems sometimes. They aren't spectacular masterworks, but they're good-ish.
Thing is, if I try to force it, it doesn't work. If I try to think about "how to write a poem," I come up with trite garbage (more garbage than usual).
But I can't wait for it to just "come to me," either. A moment will strike me, I enter a strange mood, and it is with a combination of experience, skill, and that untouchable "stroke of genius" that I can get something that begins to approach artistry.
If I devoted every hour of my life to writing (and I imagine Ravel did as much with composition), I would still not be able to force it out. Ravel's works are wonderful and possess a real depth to them, but that does not come from shitting out as much paper as possible.

Similar to Vivaldi: Telemann, Bach (and his son, C.P.E, has some similar-but-Romanticized stuff), Handel. They are all pretty unique in their style, though.

guys, sorry if you've seen this post before, but I have not gotten a response.
Still looking for anything even vaguely similar sounding to Andreas Scholl's performance of Purcell's Cold Song. This makes me go crazy inside. Please give me some similar recs.

>Favorite Beethoven piano concertos?
sorry Mozart, but Piano Concerto No. 5 in E major, Op. 73 is the greatest concerto of all time
Adrian Rivera
A good chunk of of his repertoire is re-orchestrated piano music. It's 9 hours.
You're not a professional, and most likely you haven't studied poetry as much as Ravel studied music.
As Beethoven said: "Nulla dies sine linea".

What are some essential Bartok pieces to listen to, besides the six string quartets?
More Ravel too plz

It's pretty, but also pretty boring. VW wrote better stuff.

5 (but have a soft spot for 3)
Mozart
Janacek 1, Schoenberg 2, Haydn Fifths

Good luck playing Liszt
Carson Barnes
but Liszt wrote plenty of easy music that late piano starters can play :)
Gabriel Ward
Thoughts on Brahms string quartets? I find them fascinating and strangely overlooked.
Isaac Rivera
Of course it's worth listening to, everything by Ravel is, but it is essentially still the same music. I'm not doubting the quality of his music, rather I'm regretting the fact that there isn't more of it.
You could listen to all of it in half a day.
Anyway,
piano music: valse nobles er sentimentales; tombeau de couperin; gaspard de la nuite
orchestral: la valse; daphnis and chloe (this being his longest piece); piano concerto in g major
chamber: piano trio; string quartet; sonata for piano and cello
His Piano Concerto in G major and Tombeau de Couperin are his most accessible pieces, and for the most part they still sound as fresh as they sounded 100 years ago. Also keep in mind that everything by Ravel is worth listening, even his shortest minuets are top notch. Personally my favourite short piece of his is Minuet sur le nom d'Haydn.
Charles Long
Not him, but it's not a bad idea to avoid practicing Liszt after all. I remember Charles Rosen saying that it has been discovered that the practice of fast octaves in fortissimo is the reason for which so many late19th century-early 20th century lost the use of their fourth and fifth fingers.
In the same book (I think it's "Piano Notes") he also talked about how Chopin would get explicitly angry at pianists who subjected themselves to such a practice.
Juan Brooks
As a violinist I must protest at the absence of his Tzigane and violin sonata there.
William Ortiz
I just mentioned some of the most accessible and sensationalistic works, not necessarily the best ones (although there are some personal favourites in there).
Levi Taylor
I really like them too, shame they seem to be regarded as lesser works. They do seem to stand out as different from his other works, more free, less solid, perhaps people see them as lightweight.
Connor Brown
>Perlemuter could play superbly the Scarbo in his 90s
youtube.com
How common is that? I thought that your memory went to the drainer after your 'p70s: how could he possibly remember such a complex piece in his 90s is beyond me.
Charles Butler
Often it is short term memory, old people forget what they need to do but go on and on about their youth which they recall well. He's probably played that so much that it is a fundamental part of his memory, he'd forget how to tie shoes before forgetting that.
Hudson Sanders
Hi /classical/, I was hoping you could help me out.
I've recently taken a liking to Romantic art, literature, etc. but my knowledge of Romanticism as a musical current is seriously lacking. Obv I'm familiar with some of Chopin's work, but I'd like to expand my taste in that.
Can /classical/ rec me some composers? From lurking a lil, I have
>Mendelssohn, Brahms, Chopin, Mahler
on my list.
Also general tips for appreciating? I have a self-taught understanding of music theory but classical seems to require much more cerebral listening than anything else

He's properly rated. CPE has few distinguishing characteristics from other post-Baroque aesthetic. His form and harmonic development is all typical of Baroque music for its time and the only thing I can think of that is genuinely interesting about CPE is his use of distinct rhythms which was certainly an oddity for its time.
