>>122869020
The term existed back then because he originated it. Asking for the untranslated source is just a dirty attempt to disavow any evidence, which will obviously appear in English on an English speaking website. The word is 'TONDICHTER', as you would expect. You can find it in Jan Swafford's biography.
>>
>>122869740
LOL, beethoven did not invent the term tone poem, nor did he define the term tone poem, nor did he ever write a tone poem.
>Asking for the untranslated source is just a dirty attempt to disavow any evidence
actual schizophrenia. i want an untranslated source so i can confirm that the original word in german is in fact tone poem and not a faulty translation pushed by a retarded /lit/ tourist.
>>
>>122869942
No one's talking about tone poems, as defined by Strauss. We're talking about Beethoven referring to himself as a tone poet, and you can say he never wrote a tone poem if your definition is for the Strauss form, but that has nothing to do with invalidating its usage to mean something else. Jan Swafford uses the original German word, and it's common knowledge that Beethoven thought of himself as a tone poet, so please continue to seethe at your own ignorance on Beethoven.
>>
>>122870013
so if beethoven thought of himself as a “tone poet”, but the usage of the term has no relevance to the romantic era tone poem, then beethoven’s nomenclature obviously has no connection to program music or otherwise as the modern term does. case closed. i’m glad we could come to an agreement.

>as defined by Strauss
hilariously false for someone obsessed for semantics.
>The first use of the German term Tondichtung (tone poem) appears to have been by Carl Loewe, applied not to an orchestral work but to his piece for piano solo, Mazeppa, Op. 27 (1828), based on the poem of that name by Lord Byron, and written twelve years before Liszt treated the same subject orchestrally.
so, “tone poet” or otherwise, the first modern usage of the word tone poem dates to after beethoven’s death. his usage of the word could not be less relevant.

>and it's common knowledge that Beethoven thought of himself as a tone poet
no, it’s really not, not that it matters since this definition of tone poet has no relevance to program music or the romantic era tone poem.
>>
>>122870053
>so if beethoven thought of himself as a “tone poet”, but the usage of the term has no relevance to the romantic era tone poem
Already you're wrong. Quite famously the first generation of 'programme composers' described Beethoven as the inspiration and origin of their ideas about programmatic music, that's an objective relevance. But it's irrelevant here, since whether or not Beethoven's musical expression of the romantic culture of his time fits the later definitions of programme music does not change the fact that his music was indeed programmatic. We are talking about programmaticism in a broader sense. This is what you're continually confused by. If someone uses the phrase 'programme music', you insist on connecting it with the specific kind that came later, just as if someone uses the word 'tone poem' you have to connect it to the specific kind that came later, which is deeply autistic and shows that you can't understand words having variable meanings. Beethoven's nomenclature might have not structural relevance to later programmatic music, but it does signify that his music was programmatic.

>hilariously false
I assumed you were pointing towards Strauss, since Liszt did not refer to his music as tone poems, and you were insistent on only using the term according to a specific later meaning, despite Beethoven's own meaning for it. Why on earth you would use the meaning of it defined by Carl Loewe I don't know.

>this definition of tone poet has no relevance to program music or the romantic era tone poem.
Yet it is still programmatic, which has relevance for romantic music at large.
>>
>>122870212
>Quite famously the first generation of 'programme composers' described Beethoven as the inspiration and origin of their ideas
so beethoven inspired the wagnerian school and their program music, but he himself did not write program music outside of the operas, sacred music, the pastorale and the les adieux. none of this is controversial.
>We are talking about programmaticism in a broader sense.
no, this is what YOU are confused about. there is no “programmaticism in a broader sense” as defined by anyone who has ever written program music nor anyone who has ever written about it. the definition of program music has always been extremely clear as music that breaks away from absolute forms to follow a defined series of ideas or events, from the conceptual imagery of the les adieux to full blown operas where chronological events are portrayed in detailed fashion. there is no definition of program music in the world that involves “it ends in a loud climactic finale so it’s programmatic”. you invented this.
>just as if someone uses the word 'tone poem' you have to connect it to the specific kind that came later
if someone after the invention of the established modern term “tone poem” uses it, it is entirely reasonable to assume that they are obeying the conventional definition of the word. likewise, if someone prior to the establishment of the definition uses the term, it is completely reasonable to question what their definition of the word is and dispute the relation between their usage of the word and the modern one.
>Why on earth you would use the meaning of it defined by Carl Loewe I don't know.
because carl loewe is the first documented composer to use the term in per the modern definition, you retard.
>Yet it is still programmatic
false
>>
>>122870265
>but he himself did not write program
Once again, you're begging the question by unnecessarily constraining the definition. However, what allows us to call Beethoven programmatic is certainly joined to later programmatic music by their romantic culture, and for this reason you at first denied this relevance of Beethoven to them, since it would blur the distinction, but now you have gone back on this.

>there is no “programmaticism in a broader sense” as defined by anyone who has ever written program music
That's not true, but if you really believe this, let's use a different term then. Since you're not arguing against the content of my statement here, you're just autistically arguing against what you see to be inaccurate classification. To remove your autistic obsession with terminology, let's get to the essence of the disagreement by framing the question this way: Do you think there is more poetic significance to Beethoven's music than in the music of his predecessors? I believe the answer to be obviously yes. I believe Beethoven was conscious of this significance, as evidenced by his own terminology and by his explorations of music that could be called more definitely 'programmatic', which differed little in its creative process from his other music, hence the assumption of poetic significance underlying ALL his music.

>if someone prior to the establishment of the definition uses the term, it is completely reasonable to question what their definition of the word is and dispute the relation between their usage of the word and the modern one.
That's fine then, but I've repeatedly explained the definition I'm using.

>the term in per the modern definition
When we're discussing a use of the term prior to Loewe, it doesn't really matter who was the first to use it with a 'modern definition'. But I wont reply to your response here, to avoid expanding the discussion too much.
>>
>>122870536
>Once again, you're begging the question by unnecessarily constraining the definition.
no, i’m falling back onto the literal established definition, you fucking retard. you don’t get to change it just because you feel like it this is like complaining that someone is unnecessarily constraining the definition of a square by not counting trapezoids as squares.
>what allows us to call Beethoven programmatic is certainly joined to later programmatic music by their romantic culture
this is some insane fucking circular logic right here
>why is beethoven programmatic? because his music is romantic and therefore linked to later (actually) programmatic music
>why is beethoven’s music romantic? because his music is programmatic
are you fucking listening to yourself with this bullshit?
>you're just autistically arguing against what you see to be inaccurate classification
how the fuck is this an autistic argument? i’m following the LITERAL definition of the term programmatic and pointing out that you’re bastardizing it to push an agenda. the entire crux of this whole “beethoven is a romantic” bullshit that you began is that he apparently writes program music even on pieces with no explicit programmatic intent, and now you’re effectively conceding by claiming that somehow my entire point this whole time, that your argument is based on a faulty premise and incorrect definitions, is some sort of autistic semantic nitpicking. go fuck yourself. (1/?)
>>
>>122870536
>>122870646
>Do you think there is more poetic significance to Beethoven's music than in the music of his predecessors?
in which pieces? there are obviously works with clear programmatic intent like the pastorale or the les adieux, or even individual movements like the fugal finale of op. 110 or the heiliger dankgesang that have clear extramusical intent that can be construed as literary or even programmatic. does this apply to his non-programmatic works? no. there is nothing about the hammerklavier or the grosse fuge or the diabelli variations or any other work you can think of that is inherently “poetic” moreso than mozart or haydn. all these works obey the rules of musical logic per the classical era. they are music about music and nothing more, drama and pathos does not change this.
>I believe the answer to be obviously yes
that's your interpretation, jackass. nothing about anything you've said on this topic is objective.
>I believe Beethoven was conscious of this significance
source?
>as evidenced by his own terminology
prove that his definition of "tone poet" had any relation to program music, or even poetry as a romantic mindset, instead of a concept of musical or compositional craftsmanship or excellence.
>and by his explorations of music that could be called more definitely 'programmatic'
beethoven
there are obviously attempts by beethoven to introduce programmatic elements to absolute music. this does not betray any sort of preference towards program music over absolute music, nor does this mean that all of his music must secretly have some sort of underlying programmatic intent. it just means that the individual works and movements with programmatic titles and structures are just that, individual works and movements. the first movement of the 9th is still a masterclass in absolute sonata form and dramatic impulse regardless of the programmatic status of the finale. (2/?)
>>
>>122870536
>>122870646
>>122870714
>That's fine then, but I've repeatedly explained the definition I'm using.
and your definition is fucking wrong, that's been my point for the last 48 fucking hours. come up with a new goddamn word, use some farthuffing bullshit like "poetic" if you must, but program music is an established term with an established definition that you are obviously and deliberately mongrelizing.
>When we're discussing a use of the term prior to Loewe, it doesn't really matter who was the first to use it with a 'modern definition'.
it does, because we first have to establish that beethoven's usage of the term is totally divorced from the romantic era definition of a tone poem. it is only after it is clear that we are talking about a completely unrelated usage of the same words that we can begin to discuss what beethoven actually meant, and once again, this is your invitation to prove that beethoven's definition of his "tone poet" aligns with your interpretation of his music and personal philosophy. if you can't, then the word may as well have been something nonsensical like boogiewoogie or crackerjack.

not liking classical singing just means you don’t like classical music. the entire tradition was founded upon sacred vocal music, where else do you think the term voice leading comes from? instrumental music is fundamentally just an abstraction of this concept, removed from the limitations of the human voice (breath, needing to be set to text, etc.), but all classical music at the end of the day is indebted to the classical vocal style.

For Bach I personally prefer WTC and Organ fugues by A LOT, not sure why Goldberg Variations is more popular. You have to listen to WTC little by little, not entirely. Playing on piano also helps. Bach's Keyboard Concertos are also easier to digest so listen to these as well

Sometimes you can just tell if something isn't for you, though.

I am not saying that Graun "stole" anything. This is not about "stealing." Quite to the contrary, he followed the Italian Neapolitan tradition. I would not call it stealing. That is why I like his music so much. It's fantastic. For comparison, it is often said that Schuetz was the first great German composer. But what they forget to tell you in the history books is that Schuetz would only recognize one teacher all his life: Gabrieli. He said it again and again. Schuetz's music is so good because it is Italian. So is Graun's. Modern western music is entirely owed to the Italians. That is not stealing. As even the greatest scientist of all time, Isaac Newton, stated: we all stand on the shoulders of giants. Later than Graun, from about 1800, it can be documented meticulously (but nobody reads it anymore) that German musicologists massacred the Neapolitan tradition and in general the Italian tradition. To use your metaphors, this not about stealing. It is about killing. It can also be documented in great detail that 100 years or so later some German musicologists felt killer's remorse. The eminent Kretzschmar of Berlin felt really bad about it and wanted to resurrect it. The great Leipzig musicologist Hugo Riemann stated that one can hear Pergolesi phrasing in ALL of German nineteenth music. You talk about "puristische Unsinn." Let me talk to you about "puristisch." Political Pangermania "puristische Unsinn" ended in a bunker in Berlin in April 1945 with a single bullet to the head. It is time for musical Pangermania "puristische Unsinn" to come to an end. There is nothing wrong with German music. I have nothing against Beethoven and Schumann and Brahms sonatas. Aber warum koennen wir auf dem Radio nichts anders anhoeren. Was ist ja los mit diesem bloeden puristischen Unsinn"?

>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.

>"I remember reading about a composer named Steve Reich who came up with a new idea called phasing, which is like windshield wipers going in and out of synch. Apparently he was caught in a traffic jam one rainy day and the rhythm of the windshield wipers caught his attention and he applied what he heard to his musical compositions. He has had a significant influence on contemporary music, and I think he's a great example as an innovator. Sometimes new ideas can come from something as mundane and functional as your windshield wipers. The key is to pay attention and keep your brain and senses open to new stimuli."

I really like Bach. Are there any other composers whose music has a similar level of clarity and robustness? Most of the other classical music I’ve listened to sounds cluttered and hazy, almost formless, by comparison. I hope I’m making sense.

HIP recordings sound better, though. When I listen to Bach, I don't exactly wanna hear a chicken wobbling and being unable to stick to a single tone. HIP performances tend to be the only ones with listenable singing.
>>
>>122890471
you're not fooling anyone with this, vibrato isn't nearly as significant in recordings from the 50s and 60s. vocal talent was much more capable of projecting and competing even with large orchestras, and producers like walter legge frequently used overdubs to achieve effects impossible in live concert settings (see the sanctus of klemperer's missa solemnis, one of the only recordings to have the soloists carry the pleni sunt coeli fugue as beethoven indicates in the score). if anything, the move to HIP is in part a coping method of minimizing the effects of a shrinking and weakening vocal talent pool in the modern era; all you're doing is covering the problem up, not actually solving it or achieving "authenticity" (which again, doesn't exist).

LOL, the absolute state of HIPsters.
also, as if the very forces for said performances of the cantatas and oratorios weren't moving targets in and of themselves and entirely dependent on what was actually available to bach at a given time. the unfortunate fact is that there is no representation of bach's ideal assuming unlimited resources as we essentially have today. every HIP performance is a bastardized amalgamation of various aspects of the limited resources that bach had; in effect, (badly) recreating the sound of country bumpkins moreso than it does anything bach might have truly intended (which, again, is an impossibility).

To a certain extent this is a false problem: every composer is influenced by his knowledge of what the piece will actually sound like from poignant past experience of the conditions of performance, but no interesting composer resists the repeated temptation to transcend these conditions.

About the six-voice ricercar of the Musical Offering

>A constant aural perception of six individual parts is neither a reasonable nor a desirable goal. An understanding of the achievement of this fugue and of the fugue in "antique style" in general depends on the knowledge that behind what one hears - the mass of sound and the intermittent prominence of the individual voices - lies a perfect musical structure of six voices, each beautiful in isolation as well as in combination, a structure that can never be completely realized in sound.
>>
>>122890530
>vibrato isn't nearly as significant in recordings from the 50s and 60s
depends on the performer
>Legge frequently used overdubs to achieve effects impossible in live concert settings
i dont necessarily think that's a good thing, dishonest engineering and all that. the effect is nice, though.

if Legge was going to used the studio to project effects otherwise unheard of in live settings, the least he could have done is made the organ stand out on that recording. as usual, it's buried in most of the places Beethoven wants it
>the move to HIP is in part a coping method
the HIP movement began in the 50s when there were still plenty of talented vocalists flying around, so I doubt it. even Klemperer made note of how bloated performances of Bach were at the time, which is why his St. Matthew has reduced forces compared to what was used at the time.
>>
>>122891640
>i dont necessarily think that's a good thing, dishonest engineering and all that.
i agree, i was simply making a point about vibrato or otherwise and vocal projection in the midcentury vs today.
>the least he could have done is made the organ stand out on that recording.
that's the case on most missa solemnis recordings, frankly. it's basically a piece for orchestra and voices for me at this point.
>the HIP movement began in the 50s when there were still plenty of talented vocalists flying around, so I doubt it.
i'm saying this moreso in reference to the motivation for the continued paring down of instrumental forces in HIP, rather than its initial impetus. besides, i strongly doubt anyone is thinking of karl richter in a discussion about HIP, even if he is technically "historically informed".
>>
>>122891604
>The art of J. S. Bach at its most learned - as in this ricercar - is based on a relation between the audible and the inaudible. The independence of the voices in a fugue of this kind is absolute, but it can only be partially heard. The junction of two voices in unison, wonderfully employed in the six-voice ricercar but a frequent effect in all contrapuntal writing, marks an extreme: the independence of the voices here passes over from the intermittently perceptible to the absolutely inaudible. The highest art of the composer is to make the counterpoint blend together into a continuum out of which the individual voices rise and are set into relief.

Bunch of gobbedlygook to cope with being a shit performer that cannot play a fugue properly with caution and care.

>>122891806
i’d sooner take seriously someone who understands the importance of the role of the subject and subordinate voices in a fugue than a dilettante who struggles to listen to counterpoint with more than 3 voices at once

HIP
>>
>>122892076
he said excellent
>>122892088
he is historically informed in the use of harpsichord and swifter tempos than the likes of klemperer or karajan. like i said, he is not HIP by modern standards, but in his day he was as "authentic" as bach performance practice got.
>>
I wouldn't classify harpsichord as "HIP". It is just another instrument, with its own timbre, harpsichord is not a 'performance'
>>
>>122892282
>swifter tempos

Interesting. Richter can still sound comically slow to me, like in Zion hört die Wächter singen from cantata 140 for instance, but most modern day hip recordings are completely over the the top fast of course.

I think Rotzsch generally gets the tempi just right in his recordings of the cantatas.
>>
>>122892371
using harpsichord over piano is absolutely a decision influenced by historical performance, which is precisely the definition of HIP. it's more of a question of how much influence historical performance has over the performance decisions that defines what we consider HIP today.
>>122892390
like i said, it's all relative. my whole point from the start i wouldn't include richter (or even some other early HIP that's considerably more like modern HIP like leonhardt) to be what people are referring to when discussing HIP; as far as i'm concerned, that discussion begins with the likes of pinnock, gardiner, harnoncourt etc.
>>
>>122892472
>using harpsichord over piano is absolutely a decision influenced by historical performance
It can be just a personal preference of timbre. I really like Harpsichord's sound personally whereas I dislike HIP recordings.
>>
>>122877953
No I object to Glenn Gould because his playing feels dead and lifeless to me.
>>
>>122892553
you’re not getting my point. i’m literally saying that usage of the harpsichord is not enough to fall under our modern definition of HIP, just that it is technically speaking a historically informed performance decision. i agree entirely that the harpsichord can and does sound great, and that what we consider to be HIP under the colloquial definition is generally garbage.

the recordings on this release are all an unbelievably important document regarding string playing in 19th century vienna, but why is the transfer a semitone sharp?
>>
>>122894333
beats me, the symposium release sounds the same
>>
>>122894333
It's either being played back at the wrong speed, a bad disc/transfer, or just the tuning that they played it. Europe, especially at that time, and even somewhat today, has incredibly variable tuning. A=440Hz is the standard these days, but even back in the 60s and 70s, Karajan's Berlin was operating at A=448.5Hz.
Vienna tunings could go from 442.5-449.5Hz depending on the decade.

Some transfers equalize the pitch back to standard modern tuning, but to do this without affecting the music too much you also have to lower/raise the speed of the signal, which means you're somewhat changing the performance by making it slower/faster.
>>
>>122894436
>>122894455
i have a suspicion just based on listening alone that this may have been the actual intonation of rosé and the vienna philharmonic in the 1920s. the tempo doesn't sound nearly fast enough on any of the performances for it to be a sped (and pitched) up transfer.

I have a low opinion of jazz musicians despite the fact that some of my earliest lessons in theory were with a jazz pianist.

jazz theory is mostly rote learning and the reasoning they use to arrive at a result is often wrong.

You could make the same argument with guitar driven genres like metal. Repetition and improv is a bell curve thing. Also some jazz has interesting use of pandiatonicism just like classical

the difference between jazz musicians and classically trained musicians is the fact that we:

a.) know how to correctly spell chords/scales and
b.) understand harmonic functions and inversions on a deeper level.

The jazz pianist who I once had lessons with would, for example, spell a IV11b9 chord as an Eb9#11, G7b9#5, and so on. Such an approach is very sloppy and unprofessional in my humble opinion.

mmm yes the dulcet and sumptuous tones of poowitz stands in stark contrast to the rather restrained gently percussive playing of hershstein

these massive retards actually think they can tell the difference between violin manufacturers with their sophisticated golden ears

i guarantee 100% if you a/b tested the classical population the vast majority wouldn't even be able to discern composers never mind fucking recordings or stradivariuses
