Stop shitty anime OPs 2k17
>>70285698
OP is a faggot
I started the CIA meme
pets sold; never patted
>>70285794
you're right
OP should post BETTER anime pics where all the composers are busty babes
except for chopin who is flat (don't mention it to her - she's v insecure)
poly is sexy, but he should fuck off
Are video recordings of operas, ballets, works containing narratives like passions or masses, etc. commonly done? Are the better recordings usually just audio?
Also: anyone know a good video recording of Tristan and Isolde? Preferably something with English subtitles.
>>70286724
or how about just posting a picture of a composer, and not some animated shit. Cutesy cartoon composers is just faggoty
>>70285759
bullshit, I learned the church organ at 28 yo, and can play decently. Just changing registrations mid-piece is still a bit hard.

There's a 2007 Glyndebourne one which is pretty good. It's got Stemme as Isolde and she's one of the best for the role that's currently alive. Behovalek's conducting isn't bad either. Problem is that all the GOAT Wagner recordings were made before visual recordings of them really became a thing.
There is one from 73 with Nilsson as Isolde opposite Vickers, conducted by Bohm which I'd imagine is pretty good but I've not watched it so I couldn't confirm.
There are pianists here.
What are you currently practicing ?

The organ in that place looks like great fun. But really nice looking building overall, I've been following the development. Germany seems to do classical music very well
>>70289018
That's one expensive building
>>70289115
yeah it looks pretty cool though
bet Scriabin would've loved it because it's a total lightshow
Cool poll reveals that /classical/ actually likes poly, and hsi haters are just a couple really persistent assholes with no life

A piece by Josef Hofmann titled 'Kaleidoscope' and the rest of the Weissenberg-Trenet chansons, already performed and recorded En Avril a Paris but I want to have the other five done soon so I can rent a studio over the summer and record the entire set.
Might as well shill myself a little:

He has certain composers he hypes that became a bit of a joke by association, no real harm. I do like how he anonymously argues with plebs outside the general despite claiming he only prefers classical. Somebody's gotta rattle the circle jerks or else nobody will try different genres. I'm too apathetic and dumb to do my part.

I'm actually considering boycotting popular music along with him, but I really don't want to give up my morning ritual of dancing naked to (Not Just) Knee Deep by Funkadelic (full 15 min ver. ofc) to get into the groove of the day. Is it OK if I only listen to popular music made by black people? That might be a bit racist, but whites should be held to a higher standard anyway. Plus, I still get to listen to jazz without having to worry whether it's popular music or real music (except white jazz, but that's not real jazz).
Anyone know where I can find a full English translation of the libretto to Intolleranza 1960?
>>70285759
It's just to get people to fuck off with asking the same variants of that question.

Poly is a Xe/ Xyrkin.
Name one reason why I shouldn't invent a time machine and erase Mozart from ever having existed. Fuck that smug prissy faggot.
>>70289938
Then there would be no one to BTFO Salieri.
>>70289938
Because he'd reincarnate as Grimes anyway.
>>70289962
I agree. Mozart is for babies.
beethoven is way more influential than mozart and his music is better
what happened to the beethoven hater

>>70290088

Unless you're planning on learning violin you can become a virtuoso at any age. It's not really about talent, it's more about wether you can afford daily lessons while not working.
If you can do it full time you can become a great instrumentalist, even on instruments as hard as piano.
>>70290266
>you can become a virtuoso at any age. It's not really about talent
Please stop lying to people.
>>70290088
You mean the Bach/ B*g hater?
>>70290282
Go to any conservatory and see it for yourself, or ask to any conservatory teacher, if you're too lazy to do so. Talent matters only when it comes to personal interpretation. Hard work is enough to acquire virtuoso technique, and if you're not a real artist (aka you can't come up with your own interpretations) copying them is easy, and virtually no one will give you shit for that.
Of course you won't become as famous as Arrau, but that's not really the point.
>>70290301
>Hard work is enough to acquire virtuoso technique
kek
>>70290324
It literally is. If you can shut yourself in a room for a decade you can do it. Again, if you don't trust me just go to your local conservatory, find the piano interpretation course and talk with the old people you will find there.
It's snowing but I don't need to listen to Winterreise for the fiftieth time. Post Finns.

Boulez isn't really all that inaccessible as some people make him out to be in my opinion.
>>70292044
his orchestrated Notations isn't too far off from the realm of something like Bartok or Stravinsky imo
>>70292111
I'm sure he's great, and I enjoy listening to that kind of music. I'm just curious who some of the recent more heavily tonalist composers are.

Brahms - Symphony no. 4
Wagner - Tristan und Isolde

The splice is completely nonsensical and way too late, it makes it seems like your answer is in the subdominant. 3/D -> 5/T?
At least I know now to laugh heartily whenever you proffer your worthless opinions in these threads lol.
Here's what Handel did btw. For your edification the splice should appear on a strong note and as soon as the dominant feeling of the subject ends (which here is when it goes to the F# in m.1.3). 1/T -> 5/D.

I don't hate Chopin. He's very pretty music. Who could wince at such modal pablum?
Reminder that it is Schubert, not Mozart, who is truly underrated.

What are some of the best, most god-like renaissance singers i can listen to?
>>70312506
hate to break it to you but all the renaissance singers are dead by now.
You could try some renaissance composers though, palestrina, lassus, morales, tallis, fayrfax. Those guys.
>>70312582
any ALIVE performers, i didnt ask like that. like the singer equivalent of yuja wang, almost alien
Any recommendations for works which are as sublime and beautiful as allegri's miserere? Preferably with vocals, not sure if that's what you'd call it in classical music.

What composers (other than Rach and sometimes Brahms) write music that requires big hands (a hand span that covers 11+ white keys) to be played on piano?

Recently found out about "Aeolian Harp".
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V7SvQzkZmuM
Can anyone recommend any more serene and beautiful sounding pieces like this? I can't get it off repeat, but I wish to find similar.
Horowitz plays it amazingly, as he does with #5. Though I prefer Sokolov's version of #5.
>>70313940
Have you tried the Clair de Lune from Debussy?
>>70313953
Ah, thanks for the recommendation but I know of Clair de Lune already sadly. Same as possibly "Blumenlied" which maybe(?) has a similar tone.
>>70313992
What about Arabesque no. 1?

Why is there so few good English composers, especially compared to Germany?
>>70315950
Because Germany has a stronger musical tradition. You might as well ask why all the great painters are from Italy.
>>70315950
There are good English composers. You're just a pleb.
>>70316386
I said "so few", not "none ever".

>>70317768
Ayy that nice, keep em coming.
>>70317574
Yes, and there are plenty of great Italian, French, and of course Austrian composers, in addition to the Germans. But the Italian tradition of painting is the most famous, even compared to the Dutch and the French, just as the German tradition is in music (though arguably the Austrians are about equal).
>>70317574
seriously dog?

Why do I like Rameau so much? Literally the most pleasing music I've ever heard.
are there any recordings of Monteverdi's madrigals but instrumental? or at least using instruments?
>>70319518
he has the best sense of orchestral color during that period for sure
also mood whiplash
>>70319518
>harnoncourt
>>70319065
Oh wow. How the fuck can there be no great Dutch composers though?
>>70319694
There's always Andriessen lol
>>70319681
I've picked a random youtube video, I usually listen to the Les Arts Florissants recording.
>>70319694
Sweelinck is good.
>>70319681
harnoncourt is good just not in that repertoire
What is the most RADICAL piece you know of?
Beethoven's Große Fuge is pretty RADICAL, I'd say.

considering that i'm studying with a pretty formal teacher, how much should it take me to be able to read comfortably scores and have decent hand independence, accounting for 3 hours of daily exercise?
>>70321629
Impossible to say. Too many variables.
>>70321629
for piano? couple years, maybe?
>>70321629
>when will i git gud
a few years
>>70322038
But even in a few years it still won't be for a few years
Rec angry music for a solo instrument.
>>70322080
a few years to not suck
a few more years after the few years to git gud
some more years after that to git really gud
>>70321629
8 years if you keep it up

>tfw this came out in 1922
Man, imagine the shock.
>>70317574
most of these came after the italians, didn't they?
>>70322581
They're all baroque, except for Bosch and Bruegel who are renaissance and Van Gogh who is modernist
>>70322581
well, yes, from 1400-1750 most of the innovations in art and music came from the italians and spread from there to the rest of europe
but netherlandish school of painting took it and ran with it, was very distinct and uniquely dutch at the time, the same way the german organ school took inspiration from italians but became uniquely german by the time of bach
