>>217842648>smetanaWTF? It was real classical musician? He was named after SMETANA? LMAO
>>217842648>Liszt on the pic>Liszt isn't mentioned
>>217842648>Smetana
I swear if I see a Spanish flag actually replying to this faggot...
>>217845585because he is hungarian and it does not fit with the narrative
>>217842648>>Britain>Byrd, Dowland, Purcell, Elgar, Holst...All irrelevant except for Holst. Brits have always been better at literature than music.
>>217846278*than classical music. Obviously they're a top two country for popular music (along with us).

>>217847390that's a classicmy dad has been trying to learn it for the last 10 years or so
>>217847418Does that really compare to Bach's Passacaglia in C minor, Mozart's piano sonatas, Stravinsky's Rite of Spring and the like?
>>217842648Santana
>>217842648anyone from the east? china, japan, korea?
Okay but why don't they have scientists either?
>>217844601Kek
hijacking this thread to ask if there is any contemporary classical musician that compares to the greats or at least you recommend?
>>217851166No scientists, no classical composers, no literati, no architects, no craftsmen of note... at some point the whole 'They were busy waging war and sailing' argument has to wear thin, right?

>>217851284I'm not sure about other countries, but I really doubt. In Poland we had quite strong represantation of the contemporary classical music (Penderecki, Górecki, Kilar), but I cannot compare them to old masters like Moniuszko, even despite their huge popularity (Górecki's third symphony sold in hundreds of thousands of copies and was even present on the British top ten for some time). There is a younger generation (eg. Paweł Mykietyn), too, but I'm not a fan, personally:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMKreQYioEII cannot compare it to composers like Szymanowski:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-S3X-eL9hMhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQ1vUwx6AI0(google eg. 'Hagios!' by Szymanowski from the first act of 'King Roger', that was only a fragment)Also, classical composers often work with much more comercial stuff and here we have some strong candidates here, like before it was Kilar, now it's Krzesimir Dębski (some of the best music soundtracks):https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHMyK_8XTt8&list=RDsHMyK_8XTt8&start_radio=1or Michał Lorenc:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iP_iGLT6aMY
>>217846278English Baroque was excellent considering how few people England had at the time. Fell off hard after that ofc
>>217851284I like the estonian composer Arvo Part
You also have less Nobel prizes per capita (in the sciences, of course) than Argentina and 0 Fields Medals.
