Now that Youtube has full albums uploaded at Opus 160kb/s, it's super easy to find almost anything.

Here's what I do now:

>Follow a reviewer or seek out reviews on Amazon or somewhere for an album you're interested in

>Search Youtube for the artist, filter by Channel, select the one that says X - Topic

>Click Albums

>Bam, you've got CDs and full fucking boxsets arranged in playlists automatically

I don't even know why people bother with Spotify or radio anymore. It's especially great if you're browsing different performances.

hey what do u guys Think of Gorecki's 3rd
I know it's a meme and it's really bad but something about those descending melodies at the end are sort of strange to me, has this lulling sense of calm with something horrible present, like a scene from a soap opera where Everything is covered in cobwebs and there's morning dew in the cobwebs and there's this mellow orange light over Everything and it's all gross and strange while still being comforting in some way. I feel like it has the emotional range of a soap opera, and doesn't express actual angst or sorrow like let's say a bartok string Quartet. But i Think there's something enticing in how it's so tame and eventless while still trying to be emotional and sorrowful, creates this gross sticky aura about it. What do yu guys Think

Mahleranon are you here?
How is Oskar Fried's Mahler? Especially in comparison to Mahler's other groupies like Walter and Mengelberg?
>>
>>72267644
He's definitely the best in that particular interpretive approach
>>
>>72267724
My only problem with the auto-generated Youtube stuff is that a lot of it is incorrectly tagged/organized. I suppose this is to be expected with auto-generation, but it can still be kind of annoying.

But, yes, there's a surprising amount of stuff on Youtube, even some rarer recordings which I am surprised are on there at all.

>>72269736
He's interesting in the sense that he and the audio engineers of his time managed the feat of a full acoustical recording of Mahler's 2nd, but that's mostly it.

The only Fried I've listened to have been acoustic recordings, so I've always been a bit ambivalent about them, as they're only barely musical. I can tolerate acoustic recordings when it's a solo piano or a violin, but a full orchestra is rarely done justice, and the recording conditions themselves were often poor and very cramped. I remember reading an article regarding Walter's first time recording in the early 1900s, and he said it was one of the most unpleasant experiences he had.

I know there's a few non-acoustic recordings of Fried, but I haven't heard them. iirc Arbiter issued some of his stuff from the late 1930s, right before he died.
>>
>>72269981
Oh, right, I did hear his Beethoven 9th, which was a very early electric recording.

Unfortunately I've only heard it in a pretty bad transfer, and didn't find it particularly remarkable aside from the astonishingly well sung finale.

Doing something a bit different this time : second exposition is an inversion of the first theme. Not sure if I like it or not. Usually I intuitively write the second exposition, as a more organic permutation of the theme.

>>72274066
>musicology
>composing
musicology composers are somewhat rare. Composers tend to study composition, musicologists tend to study musicology. Occasionally you have ethnomusicologist composers like Bartok or Kodaly, or Psathas today, who study folk music and notate it out. The stereotype is that musicologists are very dry and scientific and don't have a creative bone in their body, whereas composers tend to be all creativity and 'just enough science to get by'

how long does it take to learn enough theory to be a composer?
>>
>>72277443
a day
what you really do is learning other composer's pieces, not some abstract theories
>>
>>72277443
Some composers don't know any theory at all. I would say to be recognized as a composer, you need to be able to write scores for classical performers without any help from an orchestrator, and have at least a basic understanding of music theory - chords, keys, instrument limits and capabilities.
You never really stop learning as a composer, there's always something you don't know, or an area you haven't discovered yet. I would say a 3 year music degree at a college or university would give you a good grounding for being a composer. I would only recommend that if you already write a lot of music. You don't really learn to be a composer, you learn to be a better composer. Being a composer is either something you are or aren't.

Vexations is a single page work, just because Satie added a comment about playing it hundreds of times, that doesn't mean you should. A few overly literal comedians doesn't make it HIP.

This is a good recording and has a lot of other similar works.

Mind spelling out for me what the 'point' is exactly, and how it couldn't possibly be worth listening to in full? Most historians view it as significant BECAUSE of it's length; it wasn't even recorded a single time until Cage interpreted it literally.

Digits don't lie, I used to geek out on this stuff, super long slowed down movies, repetitive sounds, night long light shows. After awhile the ridiculousness of it sets in, it's not art, unless art means a complete abandonment of intellect or spirituality. It's really a lot closer to a cat staring at a laser or staring out of a car window all day. It's reductive.

It's funny that you can embrace everything from gregorian chants to Shostakovich, but if you don't accept the latest greatest avant-garde academic promoted tripe, oh you simpleton art hating fiend!

Not him, but it's a new(er) codec which handles low-latency extremely well. It's pretty much going to be the new audio codec for the web since it's ideal for streaming and whatnot. The compression algorithm is impressive and it seems to perform better than vorbis and lame.

To make a long story short, it's sort of the new MP3. It was originally made for VOIP applications, but its extraordinary compression capabilities make it a sort of swiss army knife codec.

Pic related, sorta. I'm one of those assholes who can pick between 320kbps MP3 and FLAC, I have to admit it's much harder with OPUS at a far lower bitrate. OPUS 160kbps might be the 'lossy' lossless. It's excellent.

Not everything is Opus, some of it was encoded before the changeover. Most of it is though.

To make sure you're getting the best quality, make sure it says x/251 in the "stats for nerds" display. The first number is the video stream which is irrelevant here.

Huh. I compared spectograms of 320CBR Lame and 160VBR Opus, and, weirdly enough, Opus seems to have far less compression artifacts, but at almost 2/5ths the size. It's exactly as you say.

Compression black magic, I guess. Me and my friends would always use Opus in Ventrilo because the quality was ao obviously superior. Never really thought of utilizing the codec on music, but I might now, especially with my disc space starting to get restricted.

Saw Bernard O Hanlon recommend this today...

https://www.amazon.com/Schumann-Symphony-Bruckner-Beethoven-Coriolan/dp/B000063X2J/

...live recording, only his review, kinda rare...these are my usual steps when there's tagging problems like another anon saw.

>Search Furtwangler Haydn 88, a bunch of his studio recordings with the Berliners show up, check the album, add Vienna to filter them out.

>Filter by HD, these youtube autogenerated things are always HD

>Scroll down and see a track from the album, in a generic "Various Artists - Topic" channel...Well that's not helpful

>Open the video, open the description, see youtube lists the album as "Schumann, Bruckner, Haydn & Beethoven: Orchestral Works"

>Paste that in the search

>Bam.

This is why I like it so much, it's quite easy to filter down to what you're looking for quickly if you know what to do and there's no clunky UI like with spotify. The above took less than a minute. Enjoy.

Dvorak wrote a cool line at the very end of the symphony but he only gave it to woodwinds and 2nd violins which means it's getting buried by fortissimo long notes by everyone else. Many conductors choose to double the line in horns/trumpets so you can actually hear it.

>>
>>72304049
>opera was more like sport booing arias
not particularly. Baroque opera (at least opera seria) was mostly enjoyed by the aristocracy, with the more comedic operas being directed towards the bourgeois classes. By the time you get to Mozart, the split is a little more even, but it really remained something that didn't attract the lower classes. Wagner wanted his Ring cycle to appeal to the common man because he though opera was still too elitist (also why Bayreuth was built).
>>

Probably Furt or Hausegger amongst mono recordings. Kna might've been top-drawer, but he uses that cheesy Loewe edition which made numerous egregious changes. Great performance though; easily his best Bruckner.

For stereo recordings, I agree Jochum is a good choice, though I would also add Kubelik, Schuricht, and possibly Keilberth. Skrowaczewski's earlier recording is also a good listen simply on the basis on its audiophile production.

>>72309318
The conductor for the premiere studio recording. He was also a champion of the symphony in its original form at a time where only the inferior Loewe edition was known.

>On 2 April 1932, Hausegger presented a concert in which the symphony was performed twice by the Munich Philharmonic; first in Loewe's version then using Bruckner's original autograph. Today the symphony is almost always presented in Bruckner's original form. Hausegger assisted Robert Haas and Alfred Orel in preparing the edition of Symphony published as Volume 9 of Anton Bruckner

>It was the performance of this 9th Symphony in 1932 by the Munich Philharmonic under Siegmund von Hausseger at a semi-private concert in both the Loewe and the Orel editions that provided the impetus for the support and funding of the Bruckner Society to prepare authentic versions of all of the symphonies.
