Any good fortepiano recordings of his concertos? The only good piano anything recording I can find of his works is the Hännsler collection with the laughably horrid covers. I actually like the trevor pinnock recording for the bigger orchestra. Is there any recording that has fortepiano + decent size orchestra?
What do you guys think of Dvorak's first four symphonies? Finally embarking on listening to Neumann's cycle and debating whether or not to start on the fifth symphony or from the first.

>>123379965There is nothing else like the Weberian melody, with its purity and chastity; every time I think of it, I see before my eyes a blossoming virgin, lovely in her modesty, whereas with Beethoven I receive no vision at all: he is just everywhere, like the great god Pan. It is like contrasting Shakespeare with Schiller.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DeqqLnsfZz8

>>123379965The real redpill is that all of these are second-raters at best.
>>123381630The best really does rise to the top over time. I do understand those who constantly desire new and fresh experiences though, and therein lies the value of listening to music from those other than the very best, as well as specific, differentiated tastes, but on the flip, as much as I understand and respect that, I also respect the person who wants to and is happy with listening to Bach everyday for the rest of his life.

>>123382289Telemann, Haydn, and Reger
>>123382349Wagner would call everyone a degenerate and demand to be sent back.
>>123382279mahler was a KEK which is worse
>>123382279mahler was a neurotic who second guessed his every move in a vain attempt to maximize his appeal to the viennese concertgoing public. there is no telling what he would have done to his extant music had he lived as long as, say, strauss; there’s really no reason to pretend that the last revision he made to the 6th is any authoritative statement on his true intentions. >>123382380put your trip back on, pedophile kraut.

>>123382461who are you quoting, pedophile kraut? i respect good music and good music only, and the revised movement order of mahler 6 is bad music.

>>123382827no, chomo germ.
Do people really not like Mahler 6? I feel like right after 4 and maybe next to 1 it's his most accessible, instantly gratifying, and immediately appealing. The first movement or at least the opening is very reminiscent of that of Brahms 4 imo, and again, as surface-level (and with depth, obviously) beautiful. I guess anon was just trashtalking but still.Also, someone a couple threads ago described Karajan recordings as 'soupy stringy mess' or something similar and it's all I can think about when I put on one of his recordings which has that sound, which is like 95% lol. On point tho
Guys, if instead of "A minor" I can write "Am", can I write "Ama" in place of "A major"?
>>123383050mahler 6 is a masterpiece. it’s just the andante-scherzo movement order that is unmusical and retarded.
>>123383161Of course. I was referring to this post: >>123382552Different strokes for different folks I guess, I can just understand hating 3 or 5 or 7 more is all, tho I guess some hate all.
>>123383139if you are referring to chords, they should be notated as follows:root tone, function of that root tone, type of extensionexample 1. G, A, B, C= Avi9 or CI13example 2. E, G, G#, D= Evi7+#3
>>123383211Ermmm, this is kinda too much above my level. I was just asking because I prefer to write "Étude in A minor" as "Étude in Am" instead, and I was wondering how to shorten "A major"
>>123383175that’s just the pedophile kraut being a retard as usual. >>123383211put your trip back on, pedophile kraut, and stop spreading misinformation to people who don’t know any better. >>123383264etude in A. if it’s not specified as a minor key, it is assumed to be major.
>>123383139You can write A instead
has the internet and streaming made the value of classical music knowledge less worthy in terms of how smart you, the listener, is? take someone like mahler. most people didn't know who he was before the existence of wikipeda/reddit/google where you could just google who the most important composers were/are, put their name in youtube and listen to some 90 minute symphony, all while lying in your bed eating doritos naked. as recent as the mid 2000s, to even know who mahler was made you somewhat of a smart-ass (in a good way). then to actually go out your way to find a recording of symphony xyz (having had to go to the library and research what he wrote/who he was/when shit was written etc). you couldn't do all that half-assed, naked eating doritos with no effort. so the value of that knowledge is surely multiple times less than pre-2000s.
>>123383264the standard practice is to write Am for A-minor and A for A-major.
>>123383282Yes
>>123383282mahler was already a popular composer in the 1960s. he’s not really a good example.
>>123383282Just because you've heard something doesn't mean you know what you've really heard and can talk about in a smart way. But yes, *just* namedropping a composer doesn't mean shit if you care about proof of being smart or cultured. Talking about the music itself and the differences between recordings is how you differentiate yourself.

Brucknerhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfSDyM1UfA0
I know all conductors have their strengths and weaknesses in the repertoire, but it's been especially fun going through Bernstein's catalogue after having avoided his recordings for a long time, and seeing which works and composers benefit or sound great with his approach and which ones sound worse given how expressive and all-consuming his style is, as anyone knows. For example, his Schumann is first-rate imo, as those symphonies become wonderfully exciting in his recordings (re: Sawallisch - his recordings are one of my go-to's, and while I think his recordings make for a more poetic and prettier Schumann, Bernstein's is more exciting and thus my current preference). However, now for the reason for this post, listening to his Tchaikovsky now, which is apparently even more lauded than his Schumann, and this might be the worst 5th symphony I've ever heard, it's like a caricature, an inside job of hyperbolic mania intent on making Tchaikovsky sound like unbridled hysteria. But hey, as they say you take the good with the bad, but damn, with how the reputation it has I really thought it'd be great.

Based. Join me in #NoDeadConductorsRecordings2024No but really he's right. I suppose the problem is similar to why people generally prefer reading the classics over contemporary literature: you have the benefit of the judgment filter of time so you know you have a higher chance of spending time (and money) on something genuinely good and not sold to you by an industry peddling false hype for primarily commercial reasons. But contemporary art has its obviously benefits too, and to not make this post too long, I guess the point of this post is to work out my thoughts to myself on that I should listen to more contemporary recordings of classical works. Or do ya'll disagree?
>>123384983he’s a retard and he’s wrong lol. modern digital recording usually sounds far worse than golden era stereo recordings as far as dynamics and naturalness of timbre go, and orchestras being more technically accomplished does not make up for the fact that they all lack distinct regional character and none of them seem to be know how to play a loud tutti to save their lives. this is to say nothing of the quality of conductors (objectively worse, there are barely any good major conductors alive today), vocalists (also objectively worse, none of them have a chest voice), or soloists (how many heifetzes or grumiauxs are there running around today? modern violinists may be just as technically accomplished, but none of them have nearly as much character of sound and intelligence in interpretation).
>>123384983For me, whether or not a performer is dead or alive makes no difference. I listen to recordings all the way from the earliest Edison recordings, to modern ones. I have a bias towards earlier recordings because they offer a tradition of performance that no longer exists. Modern day pianists rarely interest me, but we still have plenty of great string quartets around. Performance practice for piano and opera are really the two major pillars that have crumbled significantly, I think. Opera singing especially is pretty much not worth a shit anymore. Even though you occasionally still get a great singer or two, the standard of performance in opera has fallen to such a horrendous low that the few great artists that we *do* get are still forced to still work with garbage and they drag everyone else down with them.
>>123384983The problem with contemporary art is that academy values diversity and inclusiveness over quality and skill, on top of being a mega industry filled with neopotism to the brim. So, finding good contemporary art may be a herculean task. This is most obvious in painting and sculpture, where there are things like ebin banana on the wall, and to a lesser degree in literature, withall those terrible works selling millions of copies. I think the reason why music kinda escaped this fate is because the pop music industry was extremely successful, so it's pop music the one which "sucks" all that, and even recordings of classical music are extremely profitable on their own, so there's no reason the trick or deceive people into buying abstract compositions like Cage's works.That aside, I think contemporary conductors have a wider repertoire and tend to cover post-war composers. I also know of the Chineke Orchestra, which is an orchestra made of up of bipocs. While I think that the idea is terrible to certain degree, they aren't bad players and are one of the few orchestras to have recorded Samuel Coleridge-Taylor's works.
>>123385127none of this has anything to do with modern conductors being dogshit considering nearly all the major ones are white men.
>>123385138modern refers to the 20th century
>>123385175not in the context of recordings it doesn’t

What defines "lyrical" melodies in a objective sense? I just kinda know one when I hear one.
>>123386693You know there's no clear-cut definition, stop asking silly questions.
>>123386613>When I hear nutcases like Glenn Gould who do: [plays staccato version of J.S. Bach's Partita no. 1, BWV 825, Allemande], I say he understood nothing of Bach's music! I've listened carefully to his records: he didn't understand. He was very brilliant; I respect him up to a certain point. For me, the fact that an artist doesn't appear in public poses a problem. But at least he was a guy with the courage not to do things like other people. All the same, he was wide off the mark, so wide off the mark that you'd need a 747 to bring him back. I'm hard on Glenn Gould. Well, he's dead now, so I won't attack a colleague.[3]
>>123383345>being able to walk in cities is a meme to some people
>>123386693Ask ChatGPT. This is just a summary>A melody is lyrical when it is smooth, singable, expressive, and emotionally resonant. It often follows the natural flow of speech or singing, uses stepwise motion and expressive intervals, and has a clear tonal center. Lyrical melodies are often associated with vocal music, but instrumental melodies can also be lyrical if they possess these qualities.>Examples of Lyrical Melodies:Chopin’s Nocturnes: These pieces are known for their lyrical, singing quality, with flowing melodies that evoke a sense of intimate, poetic expression.Schubert’s Lieder: Schubert’s songs (Lieder) are celebrated for their lyrical melodies, which are closely tied to the emotional content of the text.Puccini’s Arias: In operas, Puccini’s arias are often cited as examples of lyrical melodies, with sweeping, emotional lines that are highly expressive and singable.

When in December 1873 the Wagners lunched on a roast hare, Richard recounted a hunting trip in Bohemia during his youth. Apparently, he squeamishly fired at a hare without taking aim but somehow managed to wound the animal in the rear leg. At the end of the hunt, a hound discovered the poor animal and dragged it along. Its cries of terror pierced Wagner’s heart, and when he was presented with his trophy, he vowed to never go hunting again.Living in Zurich, Wagner was shocked by the sight of a poultry worker “putting his hand in a cage, seizing a live hen and tearing its head off. The hideous scream of the animal, and the pitiful weaker sounds of complaint that it made while being overpowered transfixed my soul with horror. It is dreadful to see how our lives, which, on the whole, remain addicted to pleasure, rest upon such a bottomless pit of the cruelest misery!”

>>123390459how so? can YOU name 10 great conductors alive right now? it certainly wasn't hard to do so back in the 1960s or even the 1980s. i'd struggle to name more than 5 today.
>>123390351>>123390398Bit of an overreaction. Even then I'm not trying to avatarfag, the vast majority of my posts are without images attached. I tend to use Maho reaction images when I think they fit. I do not think of myself as Maho nor do I think I look like her, I think she is a cute character from a VN that I like that has some funny expressions, hence I post those expressions as reaction images on a site designed for sharing images with text. A good example of an actual avatarfag would be the senkotard who spammed the board a week or so ago.Either way, the posts that have these images attached tend to be much more related to classical music than 90% of the posts on this dogshit general. I don't really get the complaints, if I was spamming off topic nonsense with these images, that'd be understandably annoying.Speaking of which, post music. https://youtu.be/1g22oKmx8LU

I would charge at any army, even a horde of violent niggers if Wagner gave me the command. His instructions are my orders. His sadness is my depression. His pain is my agony. He is everything.

>>123390590i'm sure i'd care a lot more about pittsburgh and honeck if reference recordings' production quality wasn't so consistently terrible.
>>123390486It's just one guy, ignore him.
>>123390603Their Mahler recordings on Exton sound so good, at least the 1st does. After hearing that I immediately obtained their recordings of the 3rd, 4th, and 5th, probably listen to one of those today and I expect similar stellar quality, both in performance and production quality.
Imagine being a bitter tranny janny-it must be awful
>>123390477I really like most of what I've heard from Petrenko, Honeck, Jurowski, Eschenbach, and Yoel Levi. Harding and MTT too. I'd even say some of their recordings rank among the very best (eg Petrenko's Rach and Tchaikovsky, some of their Mahler's, Strauss from Honeck and Harding and Jurowski, Bruckner and Schumann).

I listened to Honeck's Bruckner 9 last night and his 7 a little bit ago and they were very good too, the 9 was especially vigorous and exciting, quite unlike most 9s I've heard.

lol, Boulez has a Haydn Nelson Mass wtih Cleveland from the 70s
>>123391336lolI will say that the production issues were especially noticeable during the choral parts of this Beethoven 9 I just finished. Anyway, fun recording but doubt I'll be listening to it again.
>>123391466boulez doing haydn? nothing could be more terrifying>>123391505now you see why that boomer retard on amazon was being a deaf moron?
>>123391543Well, on the whole I've been enjoying including more modern recordings in my listening diet (playing the Eschenbach / Philadelphia Mahler 2 right now, for example), not necessarily because I think they're always better or whatever, it's just nice to see how people these days are doing it and I think it's important to support contemporary talent, whatever the medium may be.I just posted that part of the review to foster some discussion, anyway. People will have their preferences. Besides, I'd imagine that Honeck Beethoven 9 would be right up your alley given your tempo preferences (obviously that's not all you care about).
I read this really great quote about classical music. I can't remember what it was now but it was really amazing-it summed it up very well.

>>123392948Just mentioned it because I've read it mentioned before as a notable 3rd. No idea about any of Gorecki's music desu
>>123386814its more the fact that "walkable cities" has become an obvious outlet of seething for people who don't have cars.
>>123393208there’s literally nothing wrong with not owning a car if you live in a metropolitan area where owning one is both costly and highly inconvenient.

np>>123393429NTA but been riding the bus and lightrail a ton in the past few months since I got a card that lets me ride for free through state insurance, and I love it. Nice to travel in a communal way like that, plus it's a great way to meet people. Granted I live in Portland.
>>123393448Most people also listen to pop music and think rap is good so I really don't see your point, the only good thing about cities is that they have orchestra's other than that i utterly loathe the places.
>>123393489congratulations, you are a normal functioning person and not an antisocial retard freak. >>123393491big fucking deal, music is not nearly as important to quality of life as you think it is. >the only good thing about cities is that they have orchestra'sand why do you think that is, hillybilly boy? could it perhaps be that literally the only way to get anything involving actual skilled people (including orchestral musicians) done is by living in a metropolitan area with a dense population?
>>123393517Because 90% of muscians are complete bugmen? Imagine not hiking a mountain every week and enjoying the smell and sight of God's creation it would drive me absolutely insane.
>>123393590then stop listening to music, or better yet, try to form your own little mountain hermit orchestra so i can laugh as your country bumpkin ass fails at accomplishing anything other than herding livestock.

>>123393853imagine being so utterly disconnected from civilized society that you think that banging rocks together in a forest like a caveman is somehow a reasonable substitute to classical music or pretty much any other achievement of western civilization that you can think of.

Reading through a review on Honeck's Mahler 5 and the writer names two other conductor/orchestra's I'm not really familiar with, anyone heard their recordings, Mahler or not, and any thoughts?>With the exception of CSO Resound, Exton is the most exciting label releasing new Mahler recordings. With Sieghart/Arnhem, Honeck/Pittsburgh, and Macal/Czecka, they are releasing breathtaking recordings of MahlerAlso I'll try looking it up but who's and which recordings is he talking about on the first label?
>>123395363kek, I mean, yeah, that's exactly what's talking about. I've always found it harmless and amusing, but I suppose /mu/ has one of the highest amount of normies on any interest board so the opposition isn't too surprising.
>>123395679>>123395693>you oppose transvestite pedophiles? normalfag!the absolute state of tranime faggots
Well that's just rude. Even worse though is on the Mahler 10 (Samale + Mazzuca ed.) recorded by this duo, you only get the 4 minute third movement! At least on their 5th they give you the first... I get it though, but still. Plus they still get money from getting plays on these streaming services I thought -- if I just get it from RT they'll get none, but alas...
>>123395817music board, maybe try >>>/a/ instead
>>123395841no thanks, i don’t watch tranime, the 41% isn’t in my future.

Chailly, Prokofiev? Let's try it.Also this review excerpt:>I purchased the recording for the Mossolov entry. Prokofiev is merely noisy bombast.I don't know what's funnier, purchasing a recording for a 3:36 runtime piece out of 56 minutes total, or dissing Prokofiev 3 as 'merely noisy bombast' while wanting this Mossolov piece; the Mossolov piece, which I'm hearing for the first time is whatever, kinda neat, would get annoying if it dragged on, but if Prokofiev 3 is noisy bombast, surely the other piece is...?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-yl4aI6xzU&list=OLAK5uy_kUNaLfqxFKW3Lzod_QS3zFlbpYH_3CgRY&index=1I mean c'mon
>>123396843nothing dramatic about calling pedophile cartoons pedophilic. seems like a pretty matter of fact statement if you ask me.
>>123396771I'm confused, you like anime so much you'll defend it in this absurd display, but you hate 'chinks?' Or is that referring solely to Chinese people? Actually asking.

Kossuth, a 20-minute symphonic poem, was the 22-year-old composer's first major orchestral composition. The conception owes much to Richard Strauss and the style to Liszt, but there are plenty of hints of material that show up in his mature works. The Village Scenes is a particularly exciting choral-orchestral expansion of a work originally for voices and piano, and the Concerto of course, is enormously popular. Fischer is a firm and skilled conductor, and his orchestra is made up of Hungary's finest players. The performances are thoroughly convincing; unlike many non-Hungarians, these players seem to take the composer's folk-based rhythms for granted, and do not exaggerate them. Despite enormous competition, this well-recorded performance of the concerto, along with the rarities also included, is well worth investigating. --Paul TurokAmusing cover too, Fischer looking like a Hungarian gangster here.
>One of my coworkers is a Hungarian citizen. One afternoon I tried to make common cause with his Magyar heritage by telling him I was spending a lot of time listening to Bartok. He looked at me quizzically.>“Bar-talk?” Is that a new Iphone app for picking up women in bars?”.>No, I responded, BARTOK, the most famous Hungarian composer of the 20th century.>“Ohhhh” he responded knowingly. Always one to keep up with the conversational flow, he added “I hear its really challenging.” I observed that Bartok was considered difficult 40 years ago maybe, but no so much these days. “No, no,” he replied impatiently, “Not Bartok….I was talking about saying the right thing to women in bars…. I’ve never been very good at that.” Oh, whateverrrrrrrrrrr.kek
