I choose which classical music to listen to solely based on how much I like the painting in the album art. Is this based or cringe?
both
>classicalfag doesn't actually care about the musicevery time
>>128720230At least Deutsche Grammophon generally has good recordings
>>128720230I really hate when they just choose the face of the performer. Really underwhelming representation of the music
>>128720230I’m no one to judge, if it’s too modern looking and the graphic design work looks too new/modern I won’t listen to it. Pic related serves as an example: she’s cute and has nice feet but I don’t trust it.
>>128720230it's kinda strange, but I also kinda dig it
>>128723421i also found those covers suspect. her stuff is usually more tasteful, maybe someone is trying to turn her into a classical "rockstar"?
>>128723286>music needs representationthe music is the music, popfag
>>128720230Less cringe than listening to minimalists or avant-gardists.
>>128730130That's what Brahms said, but he's wrong.t. Wagner
>>128730206so sad about reich fucking your mom but you will get over it
>>128723421>>128728653classical labels can't into cover art. but the second one isn't too terrible, if it's a hot girl they usually put her on the cover (look at all the old martha argerich album covers)
>>128730415>Classical music is not inclusive enough because mentally challenged people can't enjoy the details of complex musicReich: Hold my beer
>>128730564have yet to encounter a poster who understands the complexity of reich while still disliking itits funny since these people do exist irl but its just faux-trad midwits yapping on here
>>128720230I mostly just look for a "DDD" on the cover. Analog sucks.
>>128723421Same. Worst is when they look like perfume ads.
>>128721426What? If anything, it's the opposite; popfags usually care about everything else (visuals, politics, music videos, album covers) but the music. OP is an exception for classicalfags.
>>128730438>look at all the old martha argerich album coversDon't mind if I do
>>128731408Based. It really does, doesn't it
>>128723421Nice foota
>>128732199Exactly my thoughts, when I see that I expect nothing but classical crossover and popera shit. You know, stuff like Andre Rieu, Andrea Bocelli and entertainers like that.
>>128735983She likes to perform barefoot
>>128736100Fucking based
>>128735983>4.82 stars on WikiFeet
>>128736134
>>128720230if you are into abstract art based, otherwise cringe
>>128737216Fair take
>>128720230what else should you judge it on before you have heard it? the reviews of others?
>>128723286
>>128720230What's your opinion on picrel?
