While looking for a release by early music group Musica Ficta, I was surprised to find their name on an album of Danish folksongs. Turns out it was another group with the same name, but the music really gripped me and reminded me that I never really dug into Nielsen's songs.

Decent intro into the Second Viennese School and "atonality". Each quartet gets progressively 2deep4u. Intense stuff though, great when you're angry.

hi /classical/ gents. /jazz/fag supreme here. im doing a project on the 3rd movement of messiaens quartet for the end of time. i heard theres a recording that messiaen put his stamp of approval on. does anyone know anything about this? i usually look for recordings on deutsche grammaphon and i see they released the piece on there but i dont know anything about messiaens personal approval of it or anything
>>
>>72392860
maybe make one on 4+4chan?
>>
>>72395259
Messiaen put his stamp of approval on many recordings. At some point I think it just became a formality.

Though if you want the ultimate in authenticity, you need go no further than a recording he actually played in.

We see above an interesting relationship between the 432 and the number of completion arising as we look at this material below. The numbers suggest that the “universal” or solar constant of 432 has to do with the “completion” (or completeness) of the manifest material world.

Diameter of sun = 864,000 miles (432 x 2)

Interestingly 8+6+4 = 18 (1+ 8) = 9 the number of completion
Diameter of moon = 2,160 miles (5 x 432 = 2,160)

2+1+6+0 resolves to a 9, as does 4+3+2 = 9 and 5 x 9 = 45 and 4 + 5 = 9 as well.
Precession of the Equinoxes of Earth = 25,920 years (60 x 432) [x]

2+5+9+2+0 also equals 9, while 6 x 9 = 54 and 5 + 4 = 9 also.
Interestingly, the leading acoustician in Beethoven’s time was Ernst Chladni (1756-1827), the godfather of cymatics. His music theory textbook explicitly defined C as 256/512 Hz, the “scientific” tuning. (The A above middle C in this standard scale is 432 Hz.)

Perhaps this is to do with 432 squared — 186,624 (1+8+6+6+2+4 = 9) — being within 1 percent accuracy of the speed of light, (186,282 miles per second, which also resolves to a 9!). The square root of the measured speed of light is 431.6(!) By deductive reasoning, we might speculate that “notes tuned relative to A432 harmonize directly with the light body [auric fields] allowing the vibrations to penetrate, and through entrainment, bring your energetic essence into balance. Entrainment is the tendency for a strong vibration to influence a weaker vibration.”[xi]

Inversely, A=440 tuning may produce a dissonant or “agitative” effect on the aura/mind — and anything that disrupts/disturbs DNA will create contraindications in the aura due to DNA’s innate sound-light translation mechanism. The human aura, of course, is the closest thing we have yet been able to point to as “consciousness” or “mind” in the manifest measurable world, as I demonstrate in The Grand Illusion : a Synthesis of Science & Spirituality.

Ok. Here it is:
(cw: antisemitism, Holocaust mention)

Whenever we hear about him, Wagner is remembered for revolutionizing opera and helping move tonality to its greatest heights. And while this is mostly true it is also very important not to gloss over the fact that he was also one of the biggest anti-Semites that ever lived, openly espoused his racist views in his operas, subscribed to the idea that races shouldn't mix, had a bastard son with Liszt's daughter, catfished a gay king to settle his debts, and that his music was used extensively by the Nazi party in efforts to show "pure" and "real" music as well as to demonstrate the virtues of Teutonic music to prisoners of concentration camps. The fact that we can still perform his music today without discussing many of the issues that Wagner helped perpetuate is disgusting and offensive. As performers and artists, it is our job not only to perform music at the highest level we can, but also to increase social awareness of the issues that have plagued Western music for centuries.

tl;dr, Wagner was a racist proto-Nazi and his music shouldn't be performed, let alone without historical context

Did you know Edgard Varese once conducted a group of jazz musicians (including Mingus) and was into jazz? This website has the recordings. It was done in 1957 and is in the free jazz style- which this article notes was 4 years before Ornette Coleman's album "Free Jazz"

Monteverdi was reincarnated as Bach who returned as Mozart who was reincarnated as Hector Berlioz who returned as Maurice Ravel who was reincarnated as Chick Corea (who as a scientologist believes in reincarnation).

The first thing you look for in 'direct reincarnations' is 'continued mission(s)'. This one eternal soul has the continued mission of being a great performer and composer who broke musical boundaries while leading the evolution of serious music through the centuries. The second thing that must be considered is timeline, e.g. Berlioz couldn't have been reincarnated as Claude Debussy because Berlioz was still alive when Debussy was born. Google: Reincarnation Theory & its 26 Principles including Theory* of Luck Equation (ex. Einstein returned as Watson).

When 'child prodigies' in history are discussed, usally Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is at the top of the list. Where did his 'gifts' come from? GOD chose him at random? No, GOD is just and random selection would not be morally right and fair. The 'random universe' produced him through probability theory and the law of large numbers? No, chaos theory states that there is only an appearance of randomness in chaotic systems and everything is connected with an emphasis on the 'initial state' of a system.

The law of attraction and the conservation of momentum strongly affect reincarnation as does the conservation laws of energy, consciousness, and information can't be destroyed, only transferred. In 2010, Stephen Hawking said, "I regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when its components fail. There is no heaven or afterlife for broken down computers; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark." Besides being very insulting to billions of people, there's an obvious fallacy here. Everyone saves their important information from their old computer onto a separate hard drive/flashdrive/the Cloud, loads it into their new computer and then begins to add to that.

I am sure there are some in this thread who know quite a lot about music theory and the technical side of musical composition.

The question I have is what are the best books and other sources of knowledge to become more well versed in musical theory and reading musical notation? I think it's about time I learned this shit and stopped being lazy, however I could never afford music school or classes in my life. I heard Frank Zappa taught himself everything in a library, which seems absolutely insane, but I perhaps I could give my shot at it, no fucking around, I really want to learn this stuff.

He's very different.
Steve Reich's is based on Gamelan and (retroactively) electronic dance music.
Philip Glass' is based on Indian Raga and Eastern European dance.
John Adam's is more Western and Postromantic; Shaker Loops, Harmonium, and Harmonielehre all reflect this.

They're all great.

Cantatas are an incredible achievement. It's one of those things that had Bach only composed ~20-30, everyone would know each one intimately. It's the fact that there are ~200 of them that precludes such a thing. Plus the fact he was basically composing one per week over the space of three years (and probably had even less than a week, since he'd give the musicians their music on Wednesday or Thursday for the Sunday)
