How hard it is to produce a beautiful sound on a flute? I'm not interested in virtuosity (I already play piano all day long), but I'd love to be able to improvise on it in a decent manner.
Luis Morgan
Are there any good recordings of Max Reger's stuff?
>He was a pupil of Franz Liszt and one of the most distinguished pianists of his generation. Josef Hofmann called von Sauer "a truly great virtuoso."[2] Martin Krause, another Liszt pupil, called von Sauer "the legitimate heir of Liszt; he has more of his charm and geniality than any other Liszt pupil."[3]
Cooper Evans
Irén Marik is another pretty good Hungarian pianist. Bartók student.

parallel fifths are folksy as fuck, which is what dvorak was all about
You have 30 seconds to name your favorite performances of the last 7 years or i will travel back in time and kill your favorite composer before they could write their music. Tick Tock.
Brayden Sullivan
probably some Currentzis performance. he's so young, too. it'll be interesting to see if he stays an eccentric madman, becomes even more mad, or calms down as he ages
Carson Adams
No one?
Jose Morris
i recently read schumann's russia-diary and he was traumatized by all the parallel 5s and 8s in orthodox chant.

folksy = plebby = shit
Dylan Harris
there is literally nothing wrong with folksy stuff
are those supposed to be pyoobs beneath the abs? Entartete Kunst!!!1111111
Andrew Watson
He was massively influential on Jazz harmony, but Jazz rhythms are obviously African (or from the African Diaspora) in origin.
Samuel Evans
did he overdub in beethoven transcriptions? some parts sound unreal for piano.
Brayden Lee
99% of pianists edit extensively their recordings, at this point you can't even trust live ones.
Ian Long
I just got a really well known piece stuck on the brain but I've completely blanked on the name, anyone know which I'm thinking about? The first bar is probably incorrect but it should be good enough to know which I'm thinking of
Wow. That's... unfortunate. I would prefer if it sounded raw and real to a pristine edit which loses its touch of reality. Maybe it's just me.
Lincoln Wilson
You just think that, in actuality hearing 300 times the same wrong note will turn you crazy. The fact that you're going to listen to the same interpretation hundreds if not thousands of times means that every small error (which would be insignificant in a live performance) will now become monumental the more you listen to them. Editing music recordings is mainly done for the sanity of the listener.
*tips fedora* whatever little regard you have for your life experience or anything related-comes from G-d. If you had none you would simply stop breathing. Even the energy and guts you would employ to kill yourself comes from G-d; the choice to deviate that energy into bullshit however, is up to you.

after years of not listening to these pieces i've returned to listenening to the typical ''entry level'' pieces like ein kleine nachtmuzik and the nutcracker, holy shit i'm enjoying the fuck out of these pieces. This made me think, are we just dissmisive of these pieces because of their context popular culture has given them? Sure they're not the greatest pieces there are, but they are really enjoyable and not in the slightest way bad
Leo Morales
they're kinda boring imo, but that's just me.
Justin Howard
They're generally popular for a reason.
Nathan Parker
Best recording of Bach cantatas?
Jayden Anderson
Suzuki
Ayden Jones
You just have to keep listening to new music until you will finally get how particular and emblematic Ein Kleine Nachtmuzik is. At that point the fact that humanity actually managed to assemble this piece of music through tenths of thousands of years of tradition and research will appear to you as extremely weird.

Ryan Phillips
Sometimes it's good to embrace popular or grandiloquent music regardless of what others might think about it. I for one enjoy a lot the bombastic nature of some russian romantic composers. A good Tchaikovsky always makes me smile.
Flutes, percussions and stringed instruments did not come out of nowhere, you idiot.
William James
Does anybody get the BBC classical mag, and could tell me what are the top ten albums for the month of July? I don't exactly recall the name of the ranking, but it is near the beginning of the mag.
Jaxson Kelly
Only available within the UK.
Lucas Sanders
Chopin and Brahms are the two greatest composers to live their lives entirely in the 19th century. If they could have somehow been combined, Beethoven would be considered just a crazier, later Haydn today, and Europe would have united a lot sooner.
