You either profess George Gershwin an abomination of a composer and jazz a plague upon the world ---- or you possess the intimate knowledge that the 'swing to bop' tradition is not diametrically opposed to art music, but rather a interlaced exploration of musical progress, both antique and modern. And we need not question where the old master's thoughts abide, for they have already spoke and they have spoke well.

I'm almost done "learning" the major scales (being able to play 2 octaves in contrary and parallel motion at a decent speed) so now it's time for the minor scales. My question is should I learn the natural, melodic, and harmonic minors for a single key at once and then move onto the next key, or should I learn ALL the natural minors THEN the melodic minors and THEN the harmonic minors? Also what else should I be practicing besides scales? Are Hanon exercises a meme?
>>
>>130688417
organize your subsequent progress into the following levels:

II - natural minor scales
III - modes (Dorian, Mixolydian, Phrygian, and Lydian)
IV - harmonic major scales
V - harmonic minor scales
VI - melodic minor scales
VII - flat 2 scales (e.g. C-Db-E-F-G-A-B)
VIII - sharp 2 scales (e.g. C-D#-E-F-G-A-B)
IX - chromatic scales
X - whole-tone scales

beyond that you can follow whichever order you want.

>>
>>130688417
The only minor scale you should bother with is the harmonic one. In general, scales are not that useful of an exercise. You should ask yourself: do the pieces I play contain a lot of scales (e.g. like in Mozart)? If not, then why are you practicing them? Same for other kinds of exercises like arpeggios. Hanon and Czerny are really just busywork for people who want to "put in the hours." A competent teacher would only assign you exercises tailored to the specific technical difficulties in whatever pieces you are currently learning.

>>130688417
Learn harmonic as it's the most important. Then you can practice natural (which is basically the same as major, starting on submediant). Melodic minor is used for ascending passages, whereas natural for descending passages, you can practice them that way or just understand the differences and not waste your time.
In fact, learning scales is kind of a waste of time. You learn scales by playing pieces.

I've tried to listen to Respighi's Fountains & Pines on at least ~5 separate occasions and every time the music leaves no impression on me whatsoever. It's melifluous and nicely orchestrated, but completely faceless. Is there anything else by him I should try or is all of it like this?
>>
>>130690785
>is all of it like this?

pretty much but it's pretty good stuff nonetheless. I hold similar views about Busoni's music.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgX7RNZ6P08
>>
>>130690785
I wouldn't call it faceless since it's hardly indistinct. But he's similar to other masters of orchestration of that period, like Ravel or Holst for example, in having a relatively impersonal and self-consciously artificial style. I think his Three Botticelli suite has some of the best tone painting I've ever heard.

Dear /classical/ friends, do you listen to classical music more in depth or in breadth? Meaning, do you focus intensely on a few composers and know their output really well, or do you try to listen as widely as possible across many different composers, periods, and styles?
>>
>>130690989
From what I noticed, about half of /classical/ leans to the breadth, whereas the other half - including myself - lean towards the depth. For example I often analyze form (not too deeply, but many people here seem not to be interested at all) as well as study harmony, counterpoint and piano. As result, I'm more familiar with the output of few composers rather than all the different styles and genres.
>>
>>130690902
>But he's similar to other masters of orchestration of that period, like Ravel or Holst for example, in having a relatively impersonal and self-consciously artificial style.
However one might describe Ravel's style, I just know that every one of his orchestral works is infinitely more captivating than what I've heard of Respighi is (I'll check out the Botticelli pictures). I would agree that Holst's impersonal, at least to my ear, though again I find his works more intriguing (e.g. Beni Mora and the Japanese Suite).
>>130690883
Listening to it rn, pretty nice so far, it seems to hold my attention better.
>>
>>130690989
Prior to ~8 months ago, it was breadth. Since then, I've changed to depth. I've changed to the "only a few composers are really worth listening to on a daily basis" camp. At least for now.
>>
phew, I almost starting listening to and posted a recording here before I noticed the album cover said "fortepiano" and I immediately backed out. Bullet dodged!

note to self: hiss recordings are not great for falling asleep to, because while with high volume the mono, historical audio quality is significantly neutralized, at low volumes, like one does when trying to sleep, you end up getting just a mass of difficult-to-decipher fuzz.

Cannot for the life of me imagine listening to more than 2, maybe 3 recordings of the same works. Why would I listen to 10 cycles of Beethoven sonatas/symphonies or Chopin preludes or whatever? Seems like a colossal waste of time.

So after you've listened to your three cycles of Beethoven sonatas you just never listen to them again?

Impossible to know that. I've known Mozart's sonatas for years but I recently enjoyed them significantly more than ever before because of a recording I hadn't tried before.
>>
>>130694929

>>130694155
I mean, why not try something different? Helps keep the work fresh.

>>130695879
>>>130694155
>I mean, why not try something different?
Exactly that's what I say. Listen to something different, rather than the same thing you've already heard but with someone different pressing the keys and is 99% identical to every other version
>>
>>130695905
There's not a whole lot of good music out there unfortunately.
>>
>>130694155
I don't usually but I did sort of a few nights ago. I skimmed through a few different versions of Bach Italien concerto maybe 4 or 5 because I wanted to see if Glen Gould's version was the best. It is by the way. No one else plays it as well as he does
>>
>>130695905
The best pieces and the best composers are just that good. I've listened to many obscure 20th century composers one time. I still return to Beethoven and Bach and Brahms and Schumann and Chopin.

There's no way to describe Dvorak's 9th other than as "eminently listenable". It's just such a wonderfully melifluous work, every part of it flows beatifully and it's exciting throughout (e.g. I zone out during Symphonie Fantastisque's slow, tediously pastoral movement, but not during Dvorak's). I've heard the 8th once live and although I wasn't (and still am not) familiar with the work, I had a similar experience. Guess I need to hear the 7th too.

Heard Bach's Cello Suites 1, 3, and 6 today, played by Eliot Fisk (he did the transcription). I'm going to say it's worth a listen for the fans of Cello Suites. The lack of bow of course limits how close we can get to the original version, but overall I loved the warmer tone of a guitar. Looked very hard to play, not that I heard many pieces for classical guitar but still (my faves: Concierto de Aranjuez, Giuliani Guitar Concertos).

Meh. At least Chailly's has an aggressive nervousness about it that lends it some balls. Blomstedt's cycle sounds like an old man running through the motions. Too plain jane. If you want to hear Beethoven at the metronome maekings but without cucked modern phrasing and thin orchestral sound, Scherchen, Leibowitz, Gielen, and occasionally Toscanini are much better options.

>The rediscovery of the works of German composer Friedrich Gernsheim continues with this collection, the third from CPO focusing on his considerable output which spotlights his violin concertos featuring the noted chamber violinist Linus Roth with the Hamburg Symphony conducted by Johannes Zurl. Gersheim's long life improbably encompassed meeting Liszt, Brahms and Saint-Saëns and extended into World War I when he spent the last years of his life in Berlin. Due to his Jewish ancestry, Gernsheim's music was effectively banned and removed from German music libraries during WWII further burying legacy, a slight that is being slowly corrected with releases such as this. Gernsheim's unique contribution is the sustained beauty and expressiveness of his melodies, informed by the Brahms and Schumann influences yet wholly his own.

If he spent more time understanding the timbre of the instruments during his time rather than speedrunning to 1000 BWV numbers, then his compositions wouldn't sound like a typewriter mixed with chicken pecking at the ground in the most uninteresting motoric rhythm imaginable.

There are 24 TYPES of sushi and you want MORE? Maybe you're just not feeling the taste of those 24 types, that's why.
>>
>>130701037
...I'm saying I don't eat the same type over and over, like I don't listen to solely one recording of a masterpiece over and over.

>>130701080
And I'm saying there are 24 types in the container already.

No. Seems like a waste of time.

The greatest pieces in classical already warrant dozens and dozens of listens each. You're not wasting any time because you're already going to listen to the piece. Now, if you think, say, Chopin's Preludes or Beethoven's piano sonatas or Brahms' 4th Symphony are only worth a couple listens, then I can't help you.

>>130701100

Out of curiosity, what are the last couple pieces you listened to recently?
>>
>>130701132
holy cope.
>>
>>130701177
What kind of question is that? Grieg concerto and Janacek In The Mists.
Now you: why does this matter
>>
>>130701205
I was just curious, is all. Did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed today?
>>
Lastly, it's not just about finding the performance that works best for you and calling it a day. Alternative interpretations also are about revealing new ideas and details about the music itself.

Curiousity is often explained by something other than just mere instinct. I'm asking why are you curious
>>
>>130701356
I was curious about what someone who shuns the standard repertoire listens to.
>>
>>130701435
Okay nevermind, I get the confusion. You're talking to 3+ posters. Not sure why you didn't reply to >>130694155 instead of >>130701100
Even then, I don't think they shunned the standard repertoire.
>>
>>130701177
In the last 24 hours, I've listened to Boccherini String Quintets Op. 25, Janaček's String Quartet No. 2, Schubert's String Quintet, Scriabin Preludes Op. 11, and Brahms's German Requiem.

Ddoesn't the BABIAA anon worship Bach? He wouldn't hate on him Like I'm ironically doing right now.

And I'm pretty sure those are someone else's words rather yours you dilletante, you probably don't even play an instrument nor do you read academic research on any of these subjects. The first 20 seconds of the Zelenka piece was a closer swing feel than Bach's autistic shuffle in Contrapunctus II.

This one:

right? I liked it but I'll be honest - not very distinguishable from many other baroque pieces.

>>130703889
Bela Bartok Piano Concerto No. 3 is my favorite piano concerto. Let's try his second one. Abbado. Two and a half minutes later. Sorry, got a headache. Honestly, head has been bothering me for a large part of the day. Will listen tomorrow morning on a fresh head.
