Strauss wrote his best works in a Neoclassical style. Everything Strauss wrote from 1889 to 1909 is garbage.
>>123345372Which Strauss? Johann or Richard?
>>123345386no one cares about viennese waltz in these threads
>>123345395That's because Johann Strauss the first was better than his son but no one knows this.
>>123345372His best works are for the soprano voice.

>>123345649do tranime sisters really think they’re fooling anyone with this?
>>123345664You know that appreciating cute girls means you are interested in women, i.e straight?Your post implies I am a homosexual man pretending to be a woman, logically speaking, this implies there is an interest in men. One I have not displayed at any point in any thread. You seem to be projecting a lot.
>>123345743we know you’re an AGP tranny, tranime sister. no need to stay in your egg, /classical/ is a safe space.
>>123345776ywnbaw, TJ.
>>123345776you are cancer. Total tranny death can't come soon enough.
>>123345776wash your dilator.
>>123345776Trannies don't live in anybody's head rent free. They kick in the door to your head down and shit on the carpet. These fucking people do not leave you, your space, or your thoughts alone. If you try to have a discussion without them, they insist on making it about them. They put themselves everywhere until there is nowhere left to enjoy. I can't even click a YouTube video anymore without some faggot putting on a fake girl voice and trying to act like a cute anime retard. It's painful. It's dishonest and inauthentic. The entire trans movement is dripping with aggressive dishonesty. When you tell me to refer to you as "she/her" you are telling me to see a woman when I look at you. I don't. I see your imitation based on what porn ridden men like you find attractive, but more than this I see male aggression. I see the demand to dominate. I see acts of assertion and imperialist reeducation. You demand that I tell you 2+2=5 and when I refuse you become angry, aggressive and seek my removal or destruction. You are bullies who want to assert yourselves over others but have no field in which you're competitive except in social manipulation. You demand female spaces, you demand female aesthetics, you even demand the female label. You have entered into thievery and barbarism. You are dishonest, inauthentic and aggressive. You are not, will never and can never be a woman. You are the aggressor in every space. Your insistence on being called a woman is your demand to be given the girlfriend you were denied through your roleplaying as that imaginary woman. You are your father's son and that is how you will die.
>>123345776All the “validation” you get is two-faced and half-hearted. Behind your back people mock you. Your parents are disgusted and ashamed of you, your “friends” laugh at your ghoulish appearance behind closed doors.Men are utterly repulsed by you. Thousands of years of evolution have allowed men to sniff out frauds with incredible efficiency. Even trannies who “pass” look uncanny and unnatural to a man. Your bone structure is a dead giveaway. And even if you manage to get a drunk guy home with you, he’ll turn tail and bolt the second he gets a whiff of your diseased, infected axe wound.You will never be happy. You wrench out a fake smile every single morning and tell yourself it’s going to be ok, but deep inside you feel the depression creeping up like a weed, ready to crush you under the unbearable weight.Eventually it’ll be too much to bear - you’ll buy a rope, tie a noose, put it around your neck, and plunge into the cold abyss. Your parents will find you, heartbroken but relieved that they no longer have to live with the unbearable shame and disappointment. They’ll bury you with a headstone marked with your birth name, and every passerby for the rest of eternity will know a man is buried there. Your body will decay and go back to the dust, and all that will remain of your legacy is a skeleton that is unmistakably male.This is your fate. This is what you chose. There is no turning back.

trying out a handful recordings of parings of Schubert's 8th and 9th. Szell and Munch were stellar and will probably end up being the best, but still fun to try out others. Next with be either Bohm / BPO or Bernstein / NYP.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRSRSdi4xUk&list=OLAK5uy_nJ-63p2gJNefsuB7PORdkz9vsD1KwG92k&index=1
What's everyone else's favorite recording of Schubert's 9th? I remember when I first got into classical loving Furtwangler's but that was years and years ago.
>>123349949Wand, but with NDR
>>123349949Furt's is actually not bad at all. I have a lot of favorites. Szell and Munch are both obvious choices, Leibowitz goes fast and blasts, Maderna is extremely autistic and stubborn, both of Mengelberg's are thrilling. Probably Leibowitz for me overall, though.
>>123350010This one? Added, thanks.>>123350013I've definitely be down to try a faster one after listening to this slower (but still nice) Wand recording. Are you the guy who uploaded your own fixed versions of Mengelberg's Schubert 8 and 9 the other day? I downloaded that, maybe that should be one I listen to next. Just added Leibowitz's with the RPO, thanks.

When I was listening to mostly piano music, it's there; mostly chamber music and string quartets, it's there; and now symphonies and orchestral music, and it's there!>>123353834Hope you try him out and enjoy! I love the first symphony if you're into going chronologically and it's a great way to enjoy and approach Mahler, otherwise the fourth is probably the most conventional and a masterpiece and thus also a great starting point.

I really like the word 'perverse' as a derogatory adjective to describe an interpretation on a recording, it's a vivid and devastating criticism.
A regrettable use of time, I can't believe people actually like and even love this recording.
>>123368778I can't believe people like Mahler.
I'm finding myself actually really loving Karajan's Haydn symphonies (and his The Creation recording is first-rate too). Gonna check out Harnoncourt / RCO too but this is stellar. Is it weird to prefer like Haydn's symphonies more than Mozart's?
>>123368810more like MEHler.

in love with Strauss' Ein Heldenleben currently, and I've read rave reviews about this recording, and have been pleased with all the Honeck I've heard thus farstart of Strauss' Symphonic Poem "Ein Heldenleben" Op.40:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=raQe_h6YpBE&list=OLAK5uy_kgO23MY-YLmUfuJ_VB29IGzHZ7Y-mVfcE&index=5the recording also contains ostensibly the world premiere of one Michael Rusinek's Concerto for Clarinet and Orchestra, here's the start of that:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NG08d4_e-n4&list=OLAK5uy_kgO23MY-YLmUfuJ_VB29IGzHZ7Y-mVfcE&index=3and the recording is opened with Verdi's Overture - Opera "La forza del destino"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I75poz8Dhu0&list=OLAK5uy_kgO23MY-YLmUfuJ_VB29IGzHZ7Y-mVfcE&index=1Posting the links to the recording in reverse order of the pieces isn't what I meant to do initially lol, I was only gonna listen to the Strauss piece at first but Verdi's overtures are amazing and it feels like an injustice to just skip over the world premiere of a contemporary composer, so I'm gonna listen to the entire recording start to finish instead. Rusinek could be in this very thread so it'd be very rude to skip over his Concerto! Could be very good, let's see.
poorfag question:so, I want to begin learning the piano, but of course, I don't have money for an acoustic one, so I'll get a digital one instead. However, I also LOVE harpsichord and organ, and wanted to play some little pieces for these instruments.How do I get around this? Should I get a 1001 features keyboard? Does someone know a good digital piano that has at least harpsichord "function"? I think the accordion can simulate an organ pretty well, but I don't know.Money is a problem in this case, but if this can be resolved in less than $5000 I think it can be done. Please help me, anons

>>123323881I've listened to the Karajan II like five times since your reply and I think I completely agree with you, those two are my favorite I'm come across, with most still being enjoyable.
>>123370364I've come across*Fuckin' been making typos in my posts all day.
The more I listen to Stravinsky, the more I think I absolutely love his ideas and themes and overall sound of his works, but his actual compositions and execution fall just a bit flat. Still fine-to-great, I just always find myself feeling "man, I should be enjoying this more than I do," loving his works more in the abstract and only liking them in the details.Or maybe it just hasn't clicked with me yet, I don't know. I just feel really drawn to his works but actually listening to them never lives up to it, I guess. Yes I'm aware I basically said the same thing three times in different ways. I'll keep trying though. Any recommendations for recordings of the Symphony in C and Symphony in Three Movements? Last one I listened to was MTT / SF and it's quite good, was gonna listen to it before or while going to sleep tonight but if anyone has a recording they'd like to recommend I'm all ears.
>>123370425Stravinsky couldn't develop a theme to save his life.
>>123370445I guess that might be where part of the execution falls flat for me. Here and there though, like in Petrushka, there are moments of incredible beauty and genius, but only a glimpse before it fades.
>>123370508Beethoven would be the opposite of Stravinsky. His motives are bland but out of those motives he develops masterpieces.
It seems interesting that given how the classical/art music tradition has always functioned, Stravinsky being contemporary enough to have conducted and recorded his own work isn't the final word of it, as it would be in any other music genre or tradition. I partly bring this up because I've always found it fascinating in itself, and also because I'm gonna give this a try and apparently Strav. hated Karajan's conducting of his music, which in this space is completely normal practice.
>>123370697Stravinsky wasn't the only one. Britten, Josef Suk, John Ireland and Ravel, among others, also have recordings of their own works. There also are conductors from the 19th century that recorded some works, like Thomas Beecham.
>>123370728Maybe it's because I only got into classical as an adult on my own as a casual listener, so it seems a little odd coming from the perspective of other musical traditions. Yes, yes, I know, 'pop standards' were always a thing, but that comes from the same folk/art music historical practice. I mean I get it, just kinda odd is all.
friendly reminder that haydn has a 70 minute long mass with a THIRTY (30) minute long gloria that no one knows anything about
>>123370728I guess the question is, did these composers with recordings of their own works feel they were definitive, or enjoy other interpretations, maybe even think they had surpassed their own?

>>123370752>it seems a little odd coming from the perspective of other musical traditionsHow?I always thought it was a curiosity because anything before the 1950s feels so far away and removed from today, so the fact that there are records as old as that amuses me.
>>123371094I just meant in the sense of in the musical industry today, in non-classical, if you write and record something, your album/recording is the definitive one, as in we would just keep listening to Stravinsky's recording and that'd be that outside of some covers but those are recognized as novelties. This obviously isn't the case within the classical music tradition.
>>123370763everyone knows about it you retard.

>>123371180>>123371094To be clear, I think it's awesome there's recordings of Stravinsky conducting his own work. I just mean, probably how I should have worded it, from the perspective of modern day non-classical musical traditions, it's weird *other conductors* are making their own recordings of it when his exists. But of course within the classical tradition, that's how the practice works.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1g22oKmx8LUMan this sounds weird in retrospect. It's not yet a sonata form concerto but it's also losing that ritornello form of a baroque concerto. It's a really interesting inbetween.Did CPE ever truly start writing in modern sonata form, or was it Haydn that properly made it into what we know it as now?
Best Mozart opera Soprano?
>>123370425It's easy to admire Stravinsky, but it's hard to love him.
>>123370763Mass compositions shouldn't be that long because then they can't be used during actual mass. It's basically senseless. 20 to 25 minutes of music is enough.

>>123378656just like Mehler
>>123378632The exact wording was 'forced happiness,' so I was trying to cover any form of insincerity:>Cast in five movements the Tenth Symphony, even in the state it was left by Mahler, emerges with an extraordinary sense of structural balance. More so than that of the Ninth. Two Adagios frame two Scherzos, which themselves frame a strange, tiny, achingly descriptive intermezzo marked "Purgatorio" at the very centre. We walk with death-haunted nostalgia in the first movement. Then through rather forced happiness in the second movement. On to Purgatorial unease in the third and tragic bitterness in the Fourth movement. At last we arrive at a series of "death knell" drum strokes ushering in the remarkable last movement. Here the work's darker elements are reviewed and explored until terror from the first movement is recalled before serenity and heart's ease is won at last.https://www.musicweb-international.com/Mahler/Mahler10.htmThis a great site and resource I've been perusing lately, though I'm sure you're already aware of all this stuff so it's probably not as interesting for you.
>>123378722>Tony DugganI read his Mahler stuff back when I was first starting classical. I did think much of what he had to say was insightful back then, but he's very guilty of projection of pseudo-biographical elements onto Mahler's music.
>>123378722seems like projection to me. mahler did write very personal comments into the score, but they mostly apply to the 3rd, 4th and 5th movements. nothing he actually wrote about the 2nd implies that it is forced or farcical in any way.
>>123378722also, musicweb are one of the flagbearers for the boomer hisstard school of conducting; for mahler, they're part of the reason genuine dogshit conductors like horenstein and barbirolli have the reputation among talkclassical boomers that they have today. the only reviews of theirs that i think are worth referencing are ralph moore's opera surveys. https://musicwebinternational.com/ralph-moores-surveys/
>>123378932>>123378997It's funny you guys say that because the paragraphs continues, after a quote from Cooke:>So the Tenth Symphony gives us a further chapter in the autobiographical "novel" in music that was Mahler' life's work. What is being mapped in this work is Mahler's own state of mind. Especially under the pressure in 1910 from his tempestuous marriage which, at that particular time, was under the greatest strain of its short life. Exclamations of his torments litter the score's pages.lolI'm still not the best at emotionally or thematically analyzing classical/art music yet, so admittedly at the present I kinda just take whatever I read from whomever regarding that as a more qualified and therefore accurate reading than whatever thoughts I may have on the matter, if I have any at all besides 'this sounds good' lol.>>123379080I'll keep that in mind. Part of the reason I listened to the Barbirolli M5 yesterday was because his page on that work included it and praised it to the high heavens, so figured it was time I finally tried it. About half of the recordings he suggests are legitimately good though, or at least align with my tastes, and again as I said above, similar to that other anon's experience, I'm currently finding his analysis and takes on the works themselves very insightful.
>>123379080Maybe it's just very, very slow so I should let it sit for a while but I can't get any of those links to load, sadly.
>>123379080>>123379210Any of the .pdf ones*
>>123379127i'm not saying that all the recordings duggan recommends are bad, but he's especially fond of some particular stinkers for who knows what reason. i wouldn't take his word at face value.
Skrowaczewski's Bruckner 5 is just right, so good. I think his cycle might be my favorite.
>>123379080I like their picks for opera recordings because they give options between old/mono/live/stereo.
>>123379315yes, that's exactly what i just posted.
>>123379080Moore is OK. He's a bit too much of a Karajan simp (to the point of recommending him in his laughably awful Missa Solemnis recording), but he at least has a half decent grasp of historical context for opera, which is quite important in that genre. A lot of these guys were old Amazon reviewers that transitioned to other platforms after Amazon became a pretty hostile place for user reviews.
>>123379356yeah, i don't think moore is the gold standard of opera recommendations, but he generally gives good recommendations more often than not; certainly more often than duggan and his horenstein worship.
>>123379399A lot of old British critics have fond memories of Horenstein because he was "the guy" that made Mahler popular in Britain. He had a slew of concerts in the late 50s / early 60s, did interviews with Cooke, etc. Duggan was British, and he was a former Gramophone critic as well.Horenstein was not a bad conductor, but his approach to music, i.e. a generally rigid, "structural" approach to tempo, was basically the antithesis of good Mahler conducting.
Horenstein https://youtu.be/Gv690IezMCs?si=7E-I0nHDH_0IZ9C5
>>123379462why is it that so much unwarranted reverence of bad conducting stems from the british and gramophone? truly an irredeemable bunch. >>123379661an idiot talking about music he doesn’t understand
