But you said even a shitty one is better, dementia sister. And we get it, you haven't played on Roland Kawaii Casio hammer action keyboards, you also haven't played them with plugged on to latest VSTs. The difference between is so slim no one will be able to tell besides someone who spent their entire lives around pianos, and even they are impressed by latest models, they sound just as good as any piano.
For concert halls it's different matter.

correct, the range of dynamics and timbre you can get from the shittiest upright are still more analogous to a concert grand (which is really what any serious pianist should be practicing for) than any digital piano.
>And we get it, you haven't played on Roland Kawaii Casio hammer action keyboards, you also haven't played them with plugged on to latest VSTs.

A pianist can be practicing for his own pleasure, or to write pieces of his own. All of which can be done in a room with a good digital piano just as good. Not everyone is practicing for recitals and concerts.
>>
>>124218488
if you’re practicing just to dick around then you can practice on literally any keyboard, up to and including those shitty touch based roll-up pianos with no action whatsoever. but i seriously doubt someone with that little intent in mind would go out of their way to ask if they should invest 4 figures on a piano.

Gonna ask this question one more time: I've noticed on a lot of recordings, especially more recent ones, that the main work comes before the auxiliary pieces of the program, like overtures or short orchestral pieces or what have you. I understand why this would be done for CDs you wanna market and sell, but this can't be how it's done in an actual live performance, yeah? Surely the 10 minute piece from whoever comes before the hour-long symphony by famous composer that everyone came to see, and not the other way around?
>>
>>124218539
yes
>>
>>124218539
yes, music no one actually wants to hear like overtures and new music usually come first in a concert in that order.
>>
>>124218577
>>124218588
Okay, thank you, thought I was going crazy. Like why would you perform, I don't know, Schumann's Manfred Overture after Beethoven's 3rd? So here's the real kicker then: on recordings that were of live performances, this means the track ordering doesn't necessarily have fidelity to the actual program of that concert? That's real whacky. I even once heard a recording where there was only applause after the overture/orchestral piece -- I suspected it was either cut from the main work and added, or they audience applauded at the end of both and they just cut the one from the symphony, but I digress.
>>
>>124218161

>on recordings that were of live performances, this means the track ordering doesn't necessarily have fidelity to the actual program of that concert? That's real whacky
wait until you find out that most live recordings are actually stitched together from multiple performances, typically over 2-3 nights.
>or they audience applauded at the end of both and they just cut the one from the symphony
audiences always applaud at the end of each individual piece. frankly, i think it's overdone; they should boo more often.
>>
>>124218719
>>wait until you find out that most live recordings are actually stitched together from multiple performances, typically over 2-3 nights.

Ah now it makes sense, much appreciated, you've answered and solved my neurosis regarding this. I almost always just move the overture/orchestral piece to the front and listen to it that way, so I just wanted to make sure I wasn't actually doing something in opposition to how it would really sound live.

Then English critics at the time kind of swept him under the rug. His music wasn't "progressive" enough (because it actually had some memorable tunes and enjoyable moments). They thought he was "regressive" which is just so unbelievably stupid.

Your faith and wishes are of no matter. AI's is progressing exponentionally and it's only a matter of time (and luck, a war could slow down the progress). If you weren't living under a rock it's quite evident, the progress AI made in just 4 years is massive.
There already was an 'AI' (or rather a bot, BachBot I believe) that could write countrapuntal (sheet) music a decade ago, now we have an actual AI that is trained on various recordings to produce actual music. So in a way we're already close to something groundbreaking, however no one is working on music AIs as hard as text generating AIs currently. So again, it's all matter of time.

Excellent as a set, but individually only a few of the performances, namely the 7th and 9th, rise to the level of my favorites. The 3rd and 4th are quite good as well, but the lack of the repeat in the Eroica really bothers me. I don't think there's another set of Beethoven symphonies that I would readily recommend on the whole, other than Schuricht's maybe.

Kegel is one of my favorite conductors but I've never been super fond of his Beethoven cycle. It's fine but if I'm going to listen to slower Beethoven I'd rather just listen to Markevitch, Schuricht, Monteux, or even Furtwangler. I Kegel's Missa Solemnis, which is also outside of my tempo preference, but nails everything else IMO.

Again, if I asked one of those AI's to, say, compose a 5th Brahms symphony, I don't doubt it would be able to create something that both quite Brahmsian and of some quality. It would, however, be something derivative and lacking in any kind of artistic progression and formal innovation which a real Brahms 5th would possess.

>>124219743
For your first, as far as complete cycles go, I'd recommend starting with either Karajan (preferably the '63 or '77 cycles but the '84 is fine) or Szell.

Here's a playlist of Karajan's '63, the link starting with the 3rd:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKUkquBHRWg&list=OLAK5uy_nhN2Yat-dAC08OfZn3tg16DTkXr__iEcE&index=5

you should refrain from recommending recordings to people, this is just fucking awful.
>>
>>124219743
Oh and for someone like Kegel, I'd only stick to his recordings of choral music.

>>124219832
I suggested one of your favorite cycles too. The fact of the matter is, for someone starting out, it'd be a massive disservice and disingenuous to not recommend Karajan's, one of the most beloved, critically acclaimed, and popular of all Beethoven recordings and conductors, regardless of your own opinions on the matter; anon can make up his own mind from there, hence why I recommended Szell's as well.
>>
>>124219904
>it’d be a massive disservice and disingenuous to not recommend Karajan's
it’d be a massive disservice to continue to perpetuate bad recordings just because they’re popular. that’s how we ended up with barbirolli and horenstein as cornerstones of mahler conducting despite being some of the worst recordings ever made.
>>
>>124219743
>>124219788
But to answer your question I think it's fine to listen to whatever cycle as your first one, but I do think Leibowitz is a very good cycle to start out with since it gives you the appropriate expectation in regards to Beethoven's tempi, since for most of the symphonies he follows the metronome markings close enough (except for the 6th)
>>124219904
>I'd only stick to his recordings of choral music.
Kegel has excellent recordings of orchestral repertoire, though. SVS especially. And three excellent opera recordings.

Source: my ass.

The "progress" is inherent to any pattern recognizing entity. Why would Brahms make a progress, and not the AI? Was Brahms trained on a dataset that is no longer available? Why do you think humans operate differently from an AI? Not to mention that Brahms didn't have access to as much music as AIs do now.

Newest models of AI are now even "thinking", they're literally talking to themselves before responding. Also, recent studies show that language is not essential for thinking and problem solving, but AIs are thinking with words, so a new approach will be used in the future most likely. There's nothing stopping AI to replace everything and everyone in art&music.
>>
>>124219934
With someone like Horenstein, a lot of his praise and supporters is the result of, as you've correctly stated many times, an era of limited availability and being the proverbial only game in town. A better comparison for Mahler recordings would be Bernstein; a question of "what are your favorites" or "what do you think of Bernstein's Mahler" is vastly different to "where should one start?" and to that latter one, regardless of your own feelings on them, Bernstein's recordings should be mentioned as one of the first to try. This same applies to Karajan for Beethoven. Plus I do love his, and someone's gotta balance out you guys who don't :^)

>>124219953
>Kegel has excellent recordings of orchestral repertoire, though. SVS especially. And three excellent opera recordings.

Fair enough. Perhaps I'm unfairly lumping him in with other choral guru conductors, of whom I maintain my position of generally disregarding their non-choral recordings, and if so my mistake.

Except most people disagree with you and like Bernstein's choices. So odds are the person new to the works might too. Feel free to toss in your own favorites when making a recommendation, of course, but let's not forget the ones someone should still try even if you don't like it is all.

Oh come on. Are there plenty of people who think Bernstein, Karajan, and Abbado are the end-all-be-all of Mahler because they haven't heard any others? Sure. Doesn't change there are plenty of informed people who do adore them as well (less so Abbado's, of course), and you know that.

Anyway, if you genuinely think Karajan's Beethoven and Bernstein's Mahler are outright bad even when trying to view them from outside your own particular preferences and tastes, and that generations of classical audiences and respected, knowledgeable critics have just been wrong or, worse, bamboozled, cajoled, and seduced into praising them by marketing, peer pressure, flashy style, and otherwise, then fine, I vehemently disagree but it is what it is and I guess I gotta respect that.

However, I still think anons approaching the works for the first time or looking to expand their listening into deliberate and superior recordings than whatever they've had on hand or the first results on YouTube or whatever should be told about them in order to give them a listen and make up their own mind on the matter. Unless you worry they too might be seduced and corrupted by giving them a taste, I guess.

there are lots of boomers who are married to the recordings they grew up listening to, yes. still doesn’t make bernstein’s mahler or karajan’s beethoven legitimate.
>generations of classical audiences and respected, knowledgeable critics have just been wrong or, worse, bamboozled, cajoled, and seduced into praising them by marketing, peer pressure, flashy style
literal generations of beethoven interpreters have been fooled into believing that beethoven’s metronome markings are wrong because they grew up under wagnerian pretenses, to the degree that there are groups of people forming literal bullshit theories about beethoven’s metronome being wrong or that every metronome marking is actually intended to be played at half speed. how is this any different? people are easily convinced, especially when they don’t care that much about the subject matter to begin with.
>anons approaching the works for the first time or looking to expand their listening into deliberate and superior recordings than whatever they've had on hand or the first results on YouTube or whatever should be told about them in order to give them a listen
so they can be given faulty pretenses with the works? retarded.
>>
>>124220835
>so they can be given faulty pretenses with the works? retarded.

I'd say "faulty according to you" but that just leads back to everything else we've said again. That's the reason I suggested Szell's cycle as well by posting a link to a recording of the same symphony I did for Karajan, so they can make up their own mind with two distinct approaches. You saying they should avoid Karajan's like it's the plague, a literal mind-virus of misguided music taste (inb4 "yes, you're exhibit A")? lol
>>
>>124220671
For the first movement of the Eroica, Beethoven states a tempo of dotted half note = 60 bpm, Leibowitz takes it at about 54-58 bpm without the exposition repeat, and he times in at 12:47.

>Even when he was completely deaf, at rehearsals he used to “scan” the movement of string bows with his eyes with keen attention, “to judge the smallest fluctuations in tempo or rhythm and correct them immediately”.

>Beethoven specified metronome marks for the Eroica and the rest of his first eight symphonies in 1817,40 thirteen years after Eroica’s composition. By that time, he was already completely deaf but Eroica had already seen multiple performances under his direction, including when Beethoven could only partially hear. Therefore, for this symphony, he still could have some memory of the practical challenges associated with the physical realization of the symphony from the time of earlier rehearsals and performances.

>Although it is certainly possible that in 1817, when he specified metronome markings for the Eroica, his ability to remember the tempo of earlier performances would be impaired, it is hard to imagine that the metronome indications he then specified could be more than 3-4 BPM slower or faster from what he actually heard in earlier rehearsals and performances that he directed.

I like plenty of performances that take it at a much slower tempo than Beethoven's indication, Monteux is a long standing favorite of mine for its superb orchestral sonority and minute attention to balance and rhythm, but it's still objectively slow compared to what Beethoven wanted.

I was just joshin'. In seriousness, I believe music ought to be performed in whatever way best brings them to life and deeply resonates with the audiences of the era. For much of the 20th century, and most of the history of recorded media playable at home by the average consumer, it seems this was best achieved by slower tempos, among other things. Perhaps in our current time, in our digital age of near-instantaneous information transfer, it is time to swing the pendulum back in the other direction toward faster tempo performances.

Do you like his markings solely because they were his vision for his own works? Or is it, in addition to that, because it sounds better that way? If so, why do you think you prefer it to sound that way versus all of the previous generations who preferred it another way? And not only you, but many other performers and conductors and classical music listeners active today? Pure happenstance, luck? Or maybe something about how life is today influences our modes of thinking, our philosophies, our preferences, the manner in which we express ourselves, and our tastes in art? If so, what about life today are the sources and factors of these influences?

etc. But yes I'll keep it to /lit/, my bad.

>Do you like his markings solely because they were his vision for his own works? Or is it, in addition to that, because it sounds better that way?
obviously both, duh.
>why do you think you prefer it to sound that way versus all of the previous generations who preferred it another way?
because they grew up playing it that way and were trained to play it that way as a holdover from the 19th century, it’s not that deep.
>And not only you, but many other performers and conductors and classical music listeners active today?
because performances of beethoven’s symphonies at metronome marking only started to become more common at the end of the century, and now the internet has given every person in the world virtually unlimited access to every eroica recording in existence for comparison and critical listening. again, it has nothing to do with the gay sociological bullshit you’re interested in.
>>
>>124221898
And you aren't thinking about these things deep enough. You don't think your preference for faster tempi generally has anything to do with the pace and speed of life today? These things don't spring up out of a vacuum.
>>
>>124222134
no, it has to do with the fact that it’s what beethoven intended and it sounds more in line with the practices of the classical era, whereas the practice of slower tempi is a preference that stems from the romantic era and a romanticization of beethoven’s music as the progenitor of it.

Hit-and-miss, often has idiosyncratic interpretations and performances, which sometimes work very well and sometimes not so much, but in all cases you can get the sense that it's a well-thought out and developed vision.

romantic culture existed as both an individual musical movement and a larger intellectual and artistic movement in europe. i’m talking about the former; goethe didn’t magically convince people to play beethoven at 2/3rds the tempo marking by writing faust.

>French composer and conductor Pierre Boulez, for example, recalled that he had read 'with great interest what Wagner thought about conducting' and agreed with it. Like Wagner, Boulez argued that 'until one finds the right speed - not necessarily a constant speed, but one that fits the moment, and can vary with the context - until one finds that tempo, then even in one's own compositions the interpretation remains weak and prevents the music from swelling forth'.

Mendelssohn wasn't a metronome enjoyer, he was just retarded.

>Mendelssohn himself once remarked to me, with regard to conducting, that he thought most harm was done by taking a tempo too slow; and that on the contrary, he always recommended quick tempi as being less detrimental.

>Mendelssohn wasn't a metronome enjoyer, he was just retarded.
He probably wasn't exactly metronomic but he played Beethoven's symphonies fast, and Wagner was very butthurt about it.

>Now, the late Capellmeister Reissiger, of Dresden, once conducted this symphony there, and I happened to be present at the performance together with Mendelssohn; we talked about the dilemma just described [in Wagner’s opinion, a misconception about the very fast rendering of the Eighth Symphony’s 3rd movement], and its proper solution; concerning which I told Mendelssohn that I believed I had convinced Reissiger, who had promised that he would take the tempo slower than usual. Mendelssohn perfectly agreed with me. We listened. The third movement began and I was terrified on hearing precisely the old Landler tempo; but before I could give vent to my annoyance Mendelssohn smiled, and pleasantly nodded his head as if to say "now it's all right! Bravo!" So my terror changed to astonishment. Reissiger, for reasons which I shall discuss presently, may not have been so very much to blame for persisting in the old tempo; but Mendelssohn's indifference, with regard to this queer artistic contretemps, raised doubts in my mind whether he saw any distinction and difference in the case at all. I fancied myself standing before an abyss of superficiality, a veritable void. Soon after this had happened with Reissiger, the very same thing took place with the same movement of the Eighth Symphony at Leipzig.

Nigga was literally so buttmad about no one agreeing with his stupid interpretation of the third movement of the 8th symphony lmao

Hopefully, one not-too-distant day, there will be a clear demarcation between a great musician like Mendelssohn, who never sold much, and bloated messes like Wagner. At such a time, critics will study their history and understand which artists accomplished which musical feat, and which simply exploited it politically.

>Now, how does the true Beethovenian Allegro appear with regard to this? To take the boldest and most inspired example of Beethoven's unheard-of innovation in this direction, the first movement of his Sinfonia Eroica: how does this movement appear if played in the strict tempo of one of the Allegros of Mozart's overtures? But do our conductors ever dream of taking it otherwise? Do they not always proceed monotonously from the first bar to the last? With the members of the "elegant" tribe of Capellmeisters, the "conception" of the tempo consists of an application of the Mendelssohnian maxim "chi va presto va sano [those who go fast, go safely]
>I have, myself, only once been present at a rehearsal of one of Beethoven's Symphonies when Mendelssohn conducted. I noticed that he chose a detail here and there—almost at random—and worked at it with a certain obstinacy until it stood forth clearly. This was so manifestly to the advantage of the detail that I could not but wonder why he did not take similar pains with other nuances. For the rest, this incomparably bright symphony was rendered in a remarkably smooth and genial manner. Mendelssohn himself once remarked to me, with regard to conducting, that he thought most harm was done by taking a tempo too slow; and that on the contrary, he always recommended quick tempi as being less detrimental. Really good execution, he thought, was at all times a rare thing, but short-comings might be disguised if care was taken that they should not appear very prominent; and the best way to do this was "to get over the ground quickly." This can hardly have been a casual view, accidentally mentioned in conversation. The master's pupils must have received further and more detailed instruction for, subsequently, I have on various occasions, noticed the consequences of that maxim "take quick tempi," and have, I think, discovered the reasons which may have led to its adoption.
Based Mendelssohn
>>
>>124223897
But did Mendelssohn really not notice that nothing had changed? Either he was legitimately retarded or he thought Wagner was a retard and wouldn't notice.
>>
Wagner's music had never been particularly relevant but somehow the mainstream media realized it only after his embrace of racist, antisemitic and white-supremacist language. The fact that so many classical critics thought that Wagner was a great composer only shows how far Gesamtkunstwerk was from becoming a major art.
>>
>>124223897

It sounds like it was a wink wink nudge nudge moment between Mendelssohn and Reissiger where they mutually agreed that Wagner was a retard and that they would just perform it in their usual way, and Mendelssohn tried to gas light Wagner

Central to Wagner's understanding of tempo modification were the speeds of the first and second subjects in sonata form movements. For him a meno mosso at the second subject was crucial, and when his disciple Hans von Bulow reduced speed at this section in Beethoven's overture to Egmont, he announced proudly that his disciple had 'brought about a new reading of the overture - the correct reading'.

Having adopted Wagner's performance model, Bulow then modified it to meet the needs of his own distinctive Beethoven style. That style soon caught the attention of younger conductors, who embraced it enthusiastically. Richard Strauss was particularly impressed by Bulow's approach and recalled in maturity that 'the exactitude of his phrasing, his intellectual penetration of the score combined with almost pedantic observation of the latter, his analyses of the period structure and, above all, his understanding of the psychological content of Beethoven symphonies [...] have been a shining example to me to this day'.

From the internal tempo relationships found in Richard Strauss's score and the recordings of Wilhelm Furtwängler and Otto Klemperer clear patterns emerge that suggest a consistency of approach. Not only do they all use tempo as a means by which to underline the architectonic shifts within individual movements but they also exploit pulse as a way of integrating points of architectural importance within the symphonic structure as a whole. This approach is a direct consequence of Wagner's thoughts on interpretation and can be heard in the readings of most conductors from the 1880s to the 1970s. It would seem, then, that when Bulow 'brought about a new reading of the [Egmont] overture - the correct reading', he sparked a revolution that swept away all previous notions of symphonic interpretation and established a school of performance that shaped the way in which music was perceived and played for more than a century.

Higher frequencies are generally perceived as louder and more attention-grabbing by human ears, so they naturally draws more focus. Bass usually provides harmony, whereas soprano provides melody - what you sing and memorize most of all.

Disliking MOZART is a sign of low musical intelligence.

There's a reason why every major composer for the past few hundreds years has absolutely adored MOZART and been deeply inspired by his work. And that reason is because the music that MOZART created was simply brilliant.

If you don't Iove the classical style compared to later styles thats one thing. But you have to respect the ingenious of MOZART'S work.

Disliking MOZART is like disliking JOHANN WOLFGANG VON GOETHE or GOTTFRIED LEIBNIZ. It comes off as ignorant.

Is Simone Young an okay conductor? I'm suspicious of her because she's a woman.

>Astrid Varnay: Then I worked with many great men... I never worked with a female conductor, I don't know if someone else....

>Birgit Nilsson: No.

>Martha Modl: (laughs) Sorry for my reaction. I stand on stage and there is a woman in the pit, and I feel deserted, not defended or protected. I'm sorry, but that's how I feel.

Good 20th century violin and cello sonatas?

Rachmaninoff of course.

he said good

>>124233774
And I posted good.
>>
>>124233760
I do like that one, along with Shostakovich's and I love Prokofiev's. I guess I should have specified modernist, or post-romantic. Still, I appreciate it, wasn't familiar with that recording and that's a good duo.

>>124233793

all garbage

>>124233804

What even is that? I don't listen to modernism much. There's also Debussy one

>>124233856
Evidently yes since Rachmaninoff is never not-good.

>This set has been a favorite with critics since it was issued in 1979. Vlado Perlemuter studied Ravel's music with the composer. His approach is more colorful and dramatic than that of many other pianists. All the rigorous classical form Ravel used comes through, but so does a powerful musical personality. Just try, for example, the Toccata from Le Tombeau de Couperin, where Perlemuter builds up to a thrilling climax. The sound is more resonant than ideal, but this is still the best recording of Ravel's piano works ever made. Perlemuter's own Vox mono versions are poorly recorded; stick with the Nimbus edition. The reduced price of this reissue is a further asset. --Leslie Gerber

>>124234221

>>124234242
Evidence points to the contrary. Every critic and good composer adores it. The melodies speak for themselves. It is a masterpiece. You are a spammer.

no matter how hard you try i'm still not participating in your party politics or should it instead be referred to as a uniparty yeah you wouldnt like that yowuld you fuck you mozart rulez

>>124234294
(not true, by the way)

>>124234341
Yeah whatever you said is invalidated by a single bar of the Rach's sonata.

>>124234358
evidently not

>>124234214
This is excellent stuff, highly recommended for anyone looking to get into Ravel's solo piano music or explore another recording of it.
