Excuse me kind gentlemen, allow me to make a question regarding a text, if you will: I'm currently reading Walter Piston's Counterpoint, and on the topic of melodic curves, he eventually brings up "smaller melodic units", which he describes as "each giving its own cadential impression". Given the explanation is pretty much limited to this, could any one help me clarifying what he meant by that? Until then, he was presenting examples of score parts to show how the line retreated in the other direction after an interval jump, plus how maintaning the melody in a certain zone furnishes pitch balance, that is, uniformity in tone. The example he uses to illustrate the smaller melodic units is supposed to have "breaks" in the continuity of the melodic curve, but it doesn't seem to have that much of a "break", at least not to the extent I'd expect on an example. Overall, I'd just like clarification on what he meant with each small melody having "its own cadential impression", I believe that's the key I'm missing. Have I made myself clear enough? Please let me know. Anyway, I thank anyone who might try to help me.
Are you the user who always post Villa Lobos? Just wondering.

Nope, you'll have to believe me if I tell you I haven't listened to him in my life. I'm just spanish so you'll have to forgive me for endorsing our music

>I'm just spanish so you'll have to forgive me for endorsing our music I don't have to forgive shit bitch. That shit's gay and not even /classical/. Nigger.
Damn you must be really stupid. Thinking this is gay is at least in the realm of my comprehension but claiming it's not classical just blows my mind. Could you elaborate on that or are you so fucking stupid you can't form an argumentation?

>Could you elaborate on that or are you so fucking stupid you can't form an argumentation? I won't elaborate on it. You don't deserve an answer. Listen to Bach instead.
also timestamps on good parts are what /classical/ needs more of, makes me more attentive when I'm listening and encourages playing back interesting parts, whether for dynamics or whatever it may be
You know Gesualdo was kind of like OJ. Both have royal lineages, both murdered there wives and lovers with pointy objects and got away without punishment, both are half-black.
Manliest: Cello. Strong sound, you use it as if it were your dog or a woman, unlike the double bass where you look like a little boy. Least manly: Flute. Too gentle a sound, played by poofs like Fred the Great.
Maybe Sibelius 4 or 2? The symphony is really a genre of the 19th century or at least Romantic idiom so I'll go with the best dinosaur.

what’s a good violin brand for a beginner? also some pieces that are easy to learn but not basic like When I hear the first part of hungarian dance it seems to me that I could play something like that
Connor Morris
Gesualdo was a prince, OJ's ancestors were royalty
Second Gesualdo is agreed upon, OJ allegedly.
Third Gesualdo is from Italy (where moorish stock is strong) and every agrees OJ's father was a white drag queen and his mother a black lady. It may be better to say both are non-white.

i mean... he might have talked shit about mozart but he recorded his piano sonatas better and truer to the original than most people who claim to like him
Evan Lewis
sorry, can't think of any, it's a stupid dead art form that belongs in the 19th century with the rest of romantic crap
Caleb Gutierrez
he made afucking mockery of them by playing them at a snail's pace;
that's not true at all, maybe go listen to them? he plays third movements FASTER than most people do. And it works really well. Most people play them really daintily and with low energy and I'm pretty sure that Gould's interpretation is closer to what Mozart wanted rather than the dainty image of Mozart we have that's actually influenced by Romanticism.
for example nobody else really does justice to K332, 3rd movement (couldn't find a youtube sry)
Uchida is the best for 1st and 2nd movements, Gould for 3rd
But even when he does play slowly. It's not mockery. Actually listen to this and tell me it isn't amazing youtube.com/watch?v=eTZ33EVK3Ug
Connor Young
ironically in the early 19th century piano was considered a girl's instrument and violin was manly
Ryan Martin
>he recorded his piano sonatas better and truer to the original than most people who claim to like him How many shekels did Gould's estate pay you to post this?
Adrian Morales
No, it sucks and everyone knows it.

you probably just don't like mozart i bet you're one of those people who are like "oh I hate mozart except for the Requiem and the symphonies/concertos in minor"
hum dee dum dum >Glenn Herbert Gould was born at home in Toronto on September 25, 1932, to Russell Herbert Gold and Florence Emma Gold (née Greig),[4] Presbyterians of Scottish and English ancestry.[5] His maternal grandfather was a cousin of Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg (who was himself of Scottish ancestry).[6][7] The family's surname was changed to Gould informally around 1939 in order to avoid being mistaken for Jewish, given the prevailing anti-Semitism of prewar Toronto and the Gold surname's Jewish association.[fn 3] Gould had no Jewish ancestry

Okay /classical/ how should i order my classical albums in folders? I was planning on doing it by composer but of course plenty of albums have works by various composers so what do? Anyone been able to crack this ancient riddle?
Pic related (don't mind terrible album naming i'm sorting that out)
i just do composer > form > piece, don't really see the need in keeping albums together
ex: beethoven > piano sonata > piano sonata 18 > audio files
Anthony Nelson
That's pretty clever, cause the music library app sorts the files into albums already hummmm. I think i'll do that but also keep a copy of the albums as I upload some of them to a private tracker site. Ty
