I don't have a driver's license. I live in a relatively small city (400,000 inhabitants) and prefer to walk where I need to. I use public transport for longer distances. I don't own a portable music player other than my phone, and prefer to perambulate while aware of my surroundings anyway.
So -- none.
Juan Sanchez
I either use the 80's station or one of the larger stations that mostly play top 40 tracks. its back noise usually since I want to concentrate on the road
Henry Collins
I don't have a driver's license either. Medical complications screwed it up so that I never got one when everyone else did. I'd probably listen to something loud and violent like Wagner or Adams when driving though.
Tyler Thompson
then dont say nothing you stupid suburban retard

>suburban It's a university city with a lot of old mediaeval buildings. >retard No u, fag.
Chopin's nocturnes are my favourite classical work, do you have any suggestions for more?
Mason Wilson
How do you fags process music?
Asking since I think I might be processing music with the same neurological system I use to process spatial transformations. For example, I find it very hard to manipulate novel objects mentally while I'm listening to music, and I often start to see shapes while I'm listening to music (involuntarily; and it happens virtually every time if I close my eyes). Generally, I prefer to do it as an exclusive activity, since I find music very distracting otherwise. About the only thing I can do while listening to music is reading and writing, which I am very thankful for since otherwise I would not be able to enjoy opera (imagine the horror of not being able to process music and words at the same time).
Anyone else with brains wired like this?
Liam Cox
He's a cabaret performer who accidentally got included in classical.
Wyatt Murphy
I process the music with my brain

You either have Synesthesia or severe retardation.
Jeremiah Wright
He's popular
Mason James
I might be both, since it had not occurred to me that this might be a form of synesthesia before you pointed it out. Although it is my understanding that the associations synesthetes perceive are a lot more regular/constant through time (like associating the same chord with the same taste/colour/shape every time) than in my case, so I am not too sure about that.
>tfw you realize the quality of music is on a gradient that even random slapping of keys can potentially sound nice and since there is no hard limit on when music becomes good its actually all equally shit in some metaphysical sense.
this is what contemporary fanboys actually believe
Parker Garcia

Josiah Jackson
indeed this is what happens if you listen to contemporary music. You'll ruin your ears by associating pleasant thoughts with extreme dissonances.

What? Didn't know you purposefully eat cold lunches in yankland or wherever

>In the Netherlands, Belgium and Norway, it is common to eat sandwiches for lunch: slices of bread that people usually carry to work or school and eat in the canteen. Lol you're a bunch of kids
Robert Fisher
What the fuck is wrong with you? Who in the world eats cold lunches?
Sebastian Ross
Nevermind, saw bunch of barbarians. >sandwiches for lunch
No but I do have the related feel that everything has been done with music already. The last composer to bring anything unique to the table that wasn't some bullshit extended technique or multimedia wankery was Rautavaara.
Ryder Martin
what did Rautavaara do that was unique? He's just another neoimpressionist.
Britten really fancied beautiful boys. He had them at his home, swam with them and everyone was always in the nude. He abused several and cajoled other boys, usually pubescents to have anal sex with him. He physically hurt many of them in this process. He read of choirboys giving an early performance of a major work by J C Bach which, apparently, was humorous, because they laughed so much that they wet themselves. Britten wanted to conduct this work to reproduce the same effect and when asked why he answered, "Well you know where boys' wee comes from, don't you?"
sounds like a tone deaf person signing brahms lullaby, where did you find it?
Jonathan Adams
just forgot what it was along the way. I think its some violin concerto.
Asher Harris
does anyone know of any schools in the USA (or anywhere else I guess but preferably here) that have teachers that specialize in baroque improvisation? I'm trying to find a teacher to study under in that specific field
Juan Diaz
That's the sound I make when listening to Petzold.
I'm not the biggest fan of buzzing but it does have it uses for revealing your air stream and forcing you to blow a little harder than you might be able to get away with if you didn't do it.
Chase Rivera
then you see my dilemma :^)
Nicholas Flores
THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTARIES!!!
Gabriel Gomez
Used his own unique blend of atonality and tonality. For example, a tonal chord progression whose root notes are a 12 tone scale.
His music is just unique and never straight-to-the-point.

Hey /classical/, is it common practice hear to listen through the discographies of composers/ orchestras and if so, how do you pursue it?
