You would think this general would get busier on the weekends but it's the opposite. Is this one of the few 4chan generals where the users actually have things to do on the weekend?
>>127728302Most generals are like this on weekends from what I've noticed. Especially during these hours.
>>127728515People too busy discussing literature and drinking coffee in your European cafes at this time?
>>127727698Liszt is an extremely underrated composer. I'm tired of people just saying he writes virtuoso firework pieces.
>>127728644Indeed. There is greater emotional and spiritual depth in Liszt's Annees de pelerinage and Harmonies poétiques et religieuses than in the entire oeuvre of most other composers, and certainly equal to if not more than any other piano work.
Man, I simply do not like Isabelle Faust's violin playing, especially her tone. Is it just me? For example, her cycle of Beethoven's violin sonatas with the excellent pianist Alexander Melnikov, whom I'm a huge fan of, is highly acclaimed, with some ranking it among the best ever recorded, so I've given it multiple tries and I want to like it, I want it to click for me, but it leaves me entirely cold, especially compared to my personal favorites for these works. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ephy5VOhBIc&list=OLAK5uy_lSf7yFXPx-SqasWcffj8ZqWMQYvoPLCuk&index=16versus one of my favorites, Perlman/Ashkenazyhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMjmwLWo22s&list=OLAK5uy_mHn4lYCUy8GZwIhMgSbDDXMcYQcNDtykE&index=25There just isn't enough weight and overt passion in the first one, it isn't right for Beethoven. Not enough gravitas.
