Blasting some Bartok. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QElT9KD4uX8
The cycle begins in the depths of the Rhine river and also in the depths of the human psyche. It is clear that the meaning of what we witness on the stage is contained also in the music. The sustained meditation on the tonal triad, representing the swirling waters in the depths, is also an invocation of the natural order—the order from which we humans have, both to our loss and our gain, departed. In the Ring tonal harmony is the sound of Eden: pure, unsullied, guiltless. As the cycle develops, dissonance, chromaticism and melodies full of tragic tension replace the pure triads and pentatonic tunes of this supremely beautiful opening. But the pure harmonies and melodies sound always in the background, constantly reminding us of the home that we have lost, and which could never have satisfied us in any case.
>>122435315What do you think of the one by Colin Davis?It's the only one I've heard but I thought it was boring.
>>122435315I really liked it! First time listening to it. I actually played it off the Sony "Munch Conducts Berlioz" set and after I listened to it been listening to "La Damnation de Faust, op. 24" and about to start up his similarly highly acclaimed recording of Berlioz's Requiem right now.

Man, choral music really is the peak of all art music, huh? Putting the marvelous quality of the works themselves aside, it seems virtually every composer regarded one of their choral pieces to be their finest work, often the culmination of their creative pursuits and artistic vision, and of course immediate, stalwart link with the divine, and finally the inherent and unparalleled beauty of the human voice to the listener's ear.

Gonna try asking one more time: any other works like Brahms' Hungarian Dances (orchestral version)? Aside from Dvorak's inferior attempt of his own with the Slavonic Dances, although I intend to give one more recording a try. I've found Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet to scratch a similar itch.

Going to be honest Mozart seemed like a bit of a dickhead
>>122443568>t. has no sense of humor
is counterpoint just rhythmic motifs or does a part have to repeat unchanged for it to be counterpoint?
>>122443819Counterpoint in the broadest definition is simply a number of melodies that complement eachother playing simultaneously.
>>122443902Oh. I thought it was layering different parts of the same melody.
Official list of decent - good composers (if you think of a popular composer who didn't end up here, chances are they are shit):>Machaut, Dufay, Ockeghem, Brumel, Marenzio, Josquin, Gesualdo, Sheppard, Monteverdi, Buxtehude, Vivaldi, Handel, Bach, Haydn, Pergolesi, Krauss, Mozart, Schubert, Beethoven, Rossini, Wagner, Brahms, Liszt, Strauss, Mahler, Dvorak, Chopin, Debussy, Ravel, Rimsky-Korsakov, Shostakovich, Faure, Varese, Hindeminth, Pfitzner, Scriabin, Grieg, Schoenberg, Berg, Webern, Szymanowski, Stravinsky, Villa-Lobos, and Busoni.
>>122443938laughably absurd
>>122443924That is fugue

>>122443498>>122443526time to fuck off back to /metal/ hector>>122443992a fundamental aspect of fugue is that the subject is first enters in the tonic and is then followed by an answer in a second voice, which is just the subject but in the dominant (or sometimes subdominant).

>>122445400Well I’ve no idea who that is but I’m sure he’s a nice young man
He was never useful in any general when you think about it. In /metal/ he spams garbage no one but 1 or 2 anons cares about, now one might think he realized metal is garbage and moved to a better place, but here he does the same shit he did in /metal/ and apparently some /v/ generals. He rarely discusses music, derailing discussions instead, is obsessivelly tripfagging without a trip(what's even the point of an anonymous board), never admits he's wrong(what's point of discussion/arguing if you refuse to learn and understand someone else?) and rarely posts new music. More than 3/4 of his posts are not about recs/discussion of music but rather his shitty 'controversial' opinions.His IQ is presumably double digit, it's also evident from his taste and dunning kruger effect.
>>122446050He is loved here
>>122446050>Moved from /metal/ to /classical/ It’s like moving to India in search of a better life
>>122446071Nah. It's like moving FROM India in search of a better life. But the fact of the matter is, the India in you will never leave. You are forever Indian.
>>122440344I'll give those a try, thanks. Any suggested recording?>>122441234Not emotionally. If anything its antiquated sound results in a kind of novelty experience that creates distance between the listener and the music, which effectively alienates or at least stifles emotional resonance.>>122441390I love those piano sonatas but their appeal to me is more of an aesthetic awe in the musical craft and sublime beauty. I never really get any kind of internal swirling romantic emotions and erotic passion from virtually any of Beethoven's works, really. Or to put it another way, Beethoven doesn't tug at the human heartstrings (outside of maybe like Moonlight and Appassionata and Les Adieux, probably missing a couple others), poking and prodding at the chambers of the heart to playfully and pleasurably summoning out deliberate multitudes of emotions hidden within, but rather his music speaks to the intellect of aesthetic appreciation and the soul desperately yearning for a glimpse of the divine, the spiritually transcendent, hence the mastery of form and melody in his music as well as the revelation of God and Truth made manifest and available for experience through the beauty of his works.But there isn't much of the everyday emotions of people.>>122442016That is indeed a good one. Really need to go through his other piano sonatas, I've only listened to a handful of the late ones and they were all at minimum excellent, and some masterpieces.
>>122444939Great recording btw. Not definitive, and it is lacking a certain romantic and spiritual foundation you find in the old great recordings by the masters of the previous generations and era, but for a recording made in 2012 it's as good as one could hope for.
Elgarhttps://youtu.be/hDLX9R_ASgM
>>122446155>any kind of internal swirling romantic emotions and erotic passion>outside of maybe like Moonlight and Appassionata and Les Adieux,Based and redpilled. Pathetique also, among his greatest works.I say this as someone who can also appreciate his late sonatas, Hammerklavier esepcially, is excellent.
>>122446212Right, exactly, Hammerklavier is a masterpiece, and while it does wonders for my auditory intellectual aesthetic sense -- the form and structure and melodies and ideas are stunning, exciting, and elegant -- and lifts my soul as it imbibes itself from the music as it traverses a spiritual journey through its sensational and immense architecture, it does nothing for me emotionally.
I decided to keep Gilels Sonata cycle on my harddrive(thanks for anon who rec'd), both recording and playing are wonderful and best I've listened to desu. The three that are missing in the collection I'm still think about, Kovacevich seems fine but I'm not particulary fond of it.
>>122446304It's not very emotional, someone like Rach is definitely leagues above in that regard, but I wouldn't say it has no emotion at all. The pianissimo moments are usually somewhat emotional, but yes it doesn't 'flow as smoothly' so to speak
If Brahm's first symphony is Beethoven's 10th, what Sonata is Beethoven's 33rd?
>>122446155> I never really get any kind of internal swirling romantic emotions and erotic passion from virtually any of Beethoven's works, really. solution: stop jerking off so much

The Gilels set of the cycle is an essential part of anyone's collection, any collection in need of Beethoven piano sonata recordings.Kovacevich's Beethoven took a while to grow on me because relative to the older masters I was so used to, his more contemporary approach comes off quite idiosyncratic but don't worry, he isn't one of the virtuosos which populate the current landscape like weeds, he plays with a poet's touch, just vary stylized and emphasized dynamics. I'd say listen to the old masters first and then come back to Kovacevich's and it'll be like discovering Beethoven's cycle for the very first time again. It won't replace the others, of course, but it makes for a nice supplement.The old masters I'd personally recommend, in addition to the Gilels, are Backhaus (the first recordings I fell in love with so I will endlessly defend him), Kempff, and Schnabel. Some other big ones are Arrau, Brendel, Richter, Ashkenazy, Pollini, and Schiff. I've also been recommended Solomon and Grinberg here but haven't yet gotten around to them even though I did add them.Enjoy your journey of discovery! If I could only have one, it'd be either Gilels or Backhaus, who each play it quite differently.
>>122446304a): the hammerklavier is possibly the coolest beethoven sonata emotionally, in spite of the untold oceans of ink that have been spilt regarding it. b): if that slow movement is not the most tragic, grief stricken piece in the entirety of beethoven’s oeuvre and, indeed, the whole classical era, your brain and your soul are not in enough connection to appreciate the late works. >>122446390brahms’ 1st isn’t beethoven’s 10th. brahms’ 1st is a loose imitation of the 9th, whereas had beethoven lived to write a 10th symphony, he would have created a synthesis between orchestral music and the formal and dramatic styles of the late string quartets, the likes of which we cannot even imagine. the likes of the heiliger dankgesang or the muss es sein represent a portal to a new world, one whose keyholder woefully passed before we saw more than a fraction of a glimpse of it. >>122446565your brain is fried.
>>122446605Funnily enough, as soon as I started reading your "b)" the movement began playing lol. And hey, in my defense, back when I was predominantly listening to piano music all day I was much, much more of a classical music novice than I even am now, so we'll see how I interpret and feel it now!
>>122446198nice
>>122446605>he would have created a synthesis between orchestral music and the formal and dramatic styles of the late string quartetsFuck I'd die to hear his 10th if that's the case>your brain is fried.No, it's fine.
>he uses sonatas to emotionally jerk himself offyikes
I just jerked off to Pathetique whilst crying
Favorite or suggested Bach St John's Passion? I'm thinking Richter, Jochum, or Munchinger on the traditional side (Karajan didn't make one?) and then Herreweghe, Suzuki, Rene Jacobs, and Cleobury on the other HIP side. I kinda wanna give some of the HIPs a go since I've predominantly been listening to recordings from the former, which I generally love. I'm leaning toward Suzuki, Cleobury, or Herreweghe. Any thoughts and other suggestions welcome!
>he doesn't use arias to emotionally jerk himself offoof
>>122446920Which Aria should I use to emotionally jerk myself off? Help out a horny anon
>>122446738more interesting than the 10th were beethoven’s plans for an oratorio on the ancient modes. few people realize just how radical beethoven’s approach to modal harmony is because it only occurs for a scant few minutes in his hours of music (the heiliger dankgesang and portions of the credo), but to beethoven, this single development was noteworthy enough to warrant an entire stylistic development around it, of no lesser importance than the missa solemnis or op. 131. it is not an exaggeration to say that beethoven’s unrealized plans at the end of his life are beyond the imagination of any person alive, and that the late quartets, missa solemnis and op. 126 bagatelles only give us a glimpse at what could have been.
>>122446965You had me hard at "Beethoven" and "oratorio." I would sacrifice millions of people worldwide at the press of a button if it meant that work would have been completed and blessed upon the rest of us.
>>122446965Interesting. I never understood why modal harmony was abandoned after renaissance. Yet it appears in Missa Solemnis out of nowhere.
>>122446904That's pathetique
literally sounds like he's about to have a handsfree orgasm writing purple prose about a shitty ersatz chopin lmao
>>122447033but no one is talking about rachmaninoff
Rachmaninoff is my emotional orgasm. Next to Chopin, of course.
>>122447019>Yet it appears in Missa Solemnis out of nowhere.because how better to illustrate the mystery of the incarnation and resurrection?
omg muh counterpoint muh bog i did the face when i heard the bass line returning muh counterpoint!!!!
>>122446912So, just doing a quick comparison between the recordings with the second movement, the "Jesus ging mit seinen Jungern" (Recitative and Chorus), which is the part that should immediately grabs any listeners attention and trap them in the clutches of the music's allure until it's over, the Richter and Jochum were excellent, the Suzuki really bad, the Herreweghe whatever, and the Cleobury and Jacobs solid.
If you can't improvise in Classical music, your opinions concerning quality of music are quite irrelevant and mostly invalid. I can't improvise currently, but it's what every self-resepcting person should be practicing.

>>122447333it’s only a reflection of the repertoire that musicians have to learn in order to stay relevant and have some modicum of popular appeal. if you dislike the current state of affairs, blame virtuososlop.

>>122448272Harpsichords don't have poorer sound quality than pianos.
>>122448290>>122448272who the hell is talking about hiss we are talking about harpsichord vs piano here. There are plenty of crystal clear harpsichord recordings and the anon mean the harpsichord sounds "antiquated", not that the recordings are old and hissy
>>122448272>>122448295O whoops, sorry I thought your reply was to a different post I made earlier on a different subject, my bad. Yes, to people who are not used to the harpsichord, its sound in a recording can indeed be distracting enough to take one out of seamless, direct enjoyment of the work.

For me, its Penderecki. Always a good laugh that he and Messiaen are so Christian and yet the only perceptions of their music by the wider public would be a satanist or at least atheist of some sort.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNlI16lhYIAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYnXKtp5fqk>>122446050>rarely posts new musicOf all the nonsense accusations, this was was by far the most false. Every single new year I collected new releases and posted them so much that people just assume any random person posting them was also the same. In fact I even have a list for this year. Just pure asshurt stemming from me shitting on your disneycore nonsense. I mean really, why even bother listening to metal if you are going to listen to "i'm a little teapot" melodies, the only niche the genre has is anger and aggression. The formulation of riff-based music is basically just an idiotic form of minimalism at best, and would be better to be removed from metal altogether. Although composers such as Adam Kalmbach know to think vertically and at least add additional polyphony through canons, production, and polyrhythm with shifting tempo that intersect with each other. Regardless the main goal of metal is agression, anger, katharsis, etc. Consonant metal is a failure by design and holds no use that soccer mom classical doesn't fulfill 20 fold.

Sorry for posting about it again but I'm really loving this Munch Conducts Berlioz set. Everything I've listened to off of it has been excellent, currently playing Romeo et Juliette, op. 17 and it's amazing. Anything else from Berlioz not on this set or other recordings I should check out? Aside from Shaw's rendition of the Requiem.
>>122450071Don't think he ever recorded the Symphonie funèbre et triomphale which is fantastic. Try Dondeyne or Davis for recordings.

>>122450179This is a pretty funny thing to say given that Tallis liked Berlioz.
>>122450227Yeah, it was always a pathetic case of special pleading on his part to omit him and include composers like Rossini and Brahms.

Ultrenja's Resurrection half has some wicked percussion at the start.>>122450041Absolutely false, in terms of "guitar music", to which I assume you mean electric guitar since classical guitar exists (technically electric guitars exist in classical too), it is by far the most advanced with its own texture and goals. Really metal's role is a hybrid between noisey textures and melodic or chordal music. https://jutegyte.bandcamp.com/track/lugubrious-games-sans-fronti-reshttps://avantgardemusic.bandcamp.com/track/coincidentia-oppositorumFind me another electric guitar track that comes close to that level of composition. The only guitar music that achieves a higher state is... classical guitar. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WO8q9tWp3OYClassical has stagnated into a dusty mesuem of itself that only exists because governments force feed it grants, so it isn't bothering to take the opportunity to fufill this niche since nothing new comes from it anymore. At least that I know of anyways, its rather hard to find truly contemporary composer since as mentioned, classical has turned into a bed ridden diseased mesuem suspended into zombie state for its similarly comatose audience of soccer moms and half men.

>The most tremendous genius raised Mozart above all masters, in all centuries and in all the arts. A light, bright, fine day this will remain throughout my whole life. As from afar, the magic notes of Mozart's music still gently haunts me. He is the highest, the culminating point that beauty has attained in the sphere of music as for one moment in the history of music all opposites were reconciled; all tensions resolved; that luminous moment was Mozart.>Mozart creates music from a mysterious center, and so knows the limits to the right and the left, above and below. He maintains moderation. It always sounds unburdened, effortless, and light. This is why it unburdens, releases, and liberates us. He never abandons himself to any one sense; even at his most ecstatic moments his mind is vigorous, alert, and on the wing. He dives unerringly on to his finest ideas like a bird of prey, and once an idea is seized he soars off again with an undiminished power. It does not give the listener time to catch his breath, for no sooner is one inclined to reflect upon a beautiful inspiration than another appears, even more splendid, which drives away the first, and this continues on and on, so that in the end one is unable to retain any of these beauties in the memory. It is particularly difficult to perform.
His admirable clarity exacts absolute cleanness: the slightest mistake in it stands out like black on white. It is music in which all the notes must be heard. Free of all exaggeration, of all sharp breaks and contradictions. The sun shines but does not blind, does not burn or consume. Heaven arches over the earth, but it does not weigh it down, it does not crush or devour it. Easy to read, but very difficult to interpret. The least speck of dust spoils them. They are clear, transparent, and joyful as a spring, and not only those muddy pools which seem deep only because the bottom cannot be seen. His simplicity is merely purity. It is a crystalline thing in which all the emotions play a role, but as if already celestially transposed. Moderation consists in feeling emotions as the angels do.>Mozart makes you believe in God because it cannot be by chance that such a phenomenon arrives into this world and leaves such an unbounded number of unparalleled masterpieces. It represents neither the prolonged sigh of faith that characterizes so much of the music written before his time, nor the stormy idealism which cloaks most music after him. Rather he is that mercurial balance of the skeptic and the humane. Like him, and in him, we can always discover new worlds.- Maho Hiyajo
>>122450330Your samefagging really shows insecurity. Stop flooding threads annoying retard.
Do any of you have a any descriptions of the difference in feel between harmonic minor and neutral minor. It's not hard to hear. But for what I'm feeling, the only thing I really come up with is harmonic sounds classical, natural feels more modern, and maybe less tense.I'm trying to make a mental bank of this sort of thing between different intervals and stuff. It's not the easiest thing to find material on either, so if either makes you think/feel anything particular between them, I wanna read it. "Abstract" or "weirdly specific" is not bad in any way here.

>>122458141because apparently rach upholds the values of the renaissance masters, according to that retard
>>122458141it's not about the relationship between bach and rach. it's a type of conservative listener with very predictable sensibilities. talking about anything other than the common practice period and the 3 Bs with the sister is a waste of time

If you reply with a shitpost then I will keep posting Rach even while I don't listen to him
>>122458177you’re still avoiding my question. why do you enjoy eating shit? and here’s another question for you, why do you think i give a shit about anything you post?
Daily Rachmaninoff post.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1el_Aq7qqWA
although i should add i'm fairly certain he feigns interest in brahms for reasons unknown to anyone who isn't a schizophrenic
Mmm I love Rach and Russian componists so fucking much. It makes me so horny when I hear the emotional Russian melodies and epic chromatic runs and chordy go bang bang and then goes all soft and sensitive like my abusive boyfriend. I love movie music for elderly people
