How long does folio society take to process orders, usually? I ordered something on the 7th, about 6 things on the 9th, and one thing on the tenth. Yet it still says it's processing on my account, and I wasn't able to get a hold of any representatives at folio society. Has anyone has experience buying over seas with folio society? I just want to know how long it might take to finally get my order shipped.

Wow. I never knew Mahler was a manlet. I guess he tried to make his music sound more grandeur in order to make up for his stature.
>>9744078
but look at this jawline
>>9744078
It feels strange looking up the height of a conductor, that's not something I've ever cared to know until now. He is curiously short.
>>9744078
Not only a manlet but also an actual cuckold.

thanks - so just start listening to shit?
>>9744147
yep
>>9744147
That's a collection of links from the classical thread on /mu/. All of the links are collections of users. I uploaded folder 8. Yes, just start listening to stuff. Look up top 100 greatest classical recordings to get various people's opinion. Look up most important classical recordings, etc. Do as you will, eventually you will find your own preferences.
>>9744174
That's not necessary. Classical music is for listening, not just studying.
>>9744174
You don't need to play an instrument. Books can be helpful, especially books focusing on specific composers/compositions. If you have a little bit of background information lots of music becomes much more illuminating.
>>9744174
You should read because it's very interesting. Like the tritone being forbidden by church or single chord shaking the whole tonal system
>>9744206
recs?
>>9744220
I can't recommend anything in english, I read only native textbooks.
>>9744220
Also, maybe you should ask in /classical/ thread on /mu/
I'm still curious about the question in the OP. lol
>>9744139
Most of it is pretty garbage. The only composers I consider worth listening to are Mozart, Vivaldi, Bach, and Tchaikovsky.
>>9744517
not that poster, but how would i even listen to mozart? all of his different little pieces, how do i even figure out what is out there
>>9744522
It might seem pleb but just youtube a composer you like and let it link you to other videos.
>>9744517
You're retarded
>>9744517
You couldn't be more pleb if you tried.
>>9744141
can I have the debussy chart?
