Confess your /classical/ sins. I'll start: I don't like Tchaikovsky 5 even though I think his 6 is one of the best symphonies ever. And I like his other ones, especially 2, but 5 and 6 are usually considered as his best.
>>
>>132004700
I hardly like any classical between bach and beethoven
>>
I don't trust anyone who doesn't like Dvorak's late symphonies
>>
>>132004700
I would give up all classical just for Chopin alone. Same as Nietzsche.
>>
>>132004700
not a sin but its a hot opinion, I think that using a piano for baroque composers is a cardinal sin
>>
>>132004831
Harpsichord sounds like shit. Don't pretend it doesn't.

Worst opinion ive heard on /classical/ if this isn't just straight up bait

I'm not a fan of piano either, although agreed on solo harpsichord pieces being exhausting. I happen to like sounds getting louder or quieter as the piece goes. I do like harpsichord parts in Bach's St Matthew Passion.

Shostakovich - Fugue in A major, what are your thoughts on it? I want to hear some serious, spicy comments as well.

Two different interpretations:

Personally I find it nice but sometimes outright painful to listen to due to absence of dissonance. It also lacks depth, but sure, it's emotionally powerful, even though that alone doesn't mean much.

Schoenberg couldn't in a million years

>>132004700
Haydn, Mozart & co. (and even some Beethoven) make me zone out. I am sure it is the apex of cleverness and technical mastery, but it's just so limpidly bland. To be fair, I have heard very little pre-Romantic music, so this is likely my ignorance talking.

You're just classical-era skeptics. Classical period is not for everyone.
Doesn't mean you shouldn't try some every now and then though, people can change and so can their musical taste. But I wouldn't force it, that'll only make you hate it.

The absolute state of this general
Do people like this actually exist?

All kinds of people exist. And it's a good thing.

I don't listen to piano or harpsichord. I prefer organ for my keyboard works.
