First post, dunce.

I think there are a few but its a pretty weak meme. We like out memes pretty spicy. Stravinsky's nude penis, calcium's ejaculate on the cover of Koroliov's art of fugue, Chopin's Fugue, Bruckner's Virginity and love of teenage girls, Scriabin's shaving grace, Debussy's head shape, old scratchy recordings, Mozart's ass licking. Those are the /classical/ memes we endorse

FURTHER PROOF
>>
>>74691385
Mozart is literally the biggest meme composer of all time
>>
>>74707394
But he is not overrated
>>
>>74707508
He is. If you insist on listening to classical period stuff it should be Schubert or Beethoven.
>>
>>74707527
I wouldn't argue that Mozart is better than those two, but he does belong there with them
>>
>>74702012
Yeah, makes me think of how much he loved farts.
>>
>>74707597
Eh, every piece of Mozart I've heard has left me bored; his music seems to be pretty and intricately written, but it doesn't appeal to me on an emotional level. Do you have any pieces in particular you'd recommend? For reference, my favourite composers are almost all from the romantic period and Eastern Europe.
>>
>>74707641
Those are fair arguments, I was memeing with my persistence. I do like Mozart, his stuff is indeed pretty and masterfully crafted, I'll try my best to find some stuff that may appeal to you more.

His late symphonies (assuming you've heard them, linked to last mvt of 41)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=va8HF9L1Ans&t=50m18s

Quartet:

Concertos:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDitJ0WLhDY
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=he6kWtk-Pk4

I do get where you're coming from though, and I'm not sure I can get you to feel the emotion in Mozart. In my opinion it is there, but it stems from a different musicality than more romantic stuff if that makes sense

>>
>>74708210
taste has nothing to do with quality. Only conformity to aesthetic standards and to some extent culltural relevance can measure such things
>>
>>74708339
Clearly my aesthetic standards are different to people who like Mozart then - so I think he's overrated by the general populace when measuring him against my standards.
>>
>>74708339
>>74708089
why are mozart apologists so immature?
>>
>>74708489
The general populace never liked Mozart that much. Even within aristocratic circles the memory and legacy of Mozart was being preserved and maintained by romantic composers.
>>
>>74708544
I know he wasn't held in high regard at the time - I was referring to the general perception amongst today's plebs that Mozart = the pinnacle of classical music.

Dunno. I didn't have much time, because they were going out of town in literally 3 days, from the friday I was told they were leaving, to the very next monday. So I was told I had 3 days to download whatever I could, and they would not be back until next summer. So I went on a mad downloading frenzy. I had already been downloading parts of this collection, because it had interested me so much in recent times (it has many really interesting recordings), and I had already downloaded the whole mahler and bruckner folders. There was also a sizable mozart collection, but I never was able to get the whole thing. And other artists like prokofiev, vivaldi, schumann, schubert, which I wish I would have gotten more of. I'm really happy that I was basically able to get all of the artists I didn't know, and all of the recordings of compositions I really like from all the artists that I could find that are well known.
>>
>>74711134
Look closer. Purcell is on there.
>>
I also cannibalized a few of the albums into my main collection, like the schoenberg string quartets, and the schoenberg, webern, berg, orchestral recordings by karajan.
>>
>>74711305
So that's why you don't see them in that big list of albums.
>>
>>74708210
Russian Romantic is the most entry level classical out there
>>
Also, say what you will, but I skipped a lot of the medieval choir recordings, for the sake of saving time on which I could be downloading other stuff. It's not that I don't want those, it's just that I didn't have enough time to download them. There were so many

Jacob Obrecht
William Byrd
Tavern
Ockeghem
Telemann
Hildegard Von Bigen
Muzio Clementi Tomas Luis De Victioria Josquin Des Prez
Thomas Tallis

Unfortunately I did not get these, and there were maybe 1 or 2 I forgot to write down.

Not gonna lie, common practice period stuff sounds pretty tame and lacking in some of the more subtle complexities/variations compared to the 20th century stuff even before the 12 tone/post-modern stuff now that I have listened to so much of more "recent" stuff in classical. Even Bach sounds straightforward as fuck, almost like I am listening to some catchy radio pop.

learn to appreciate subtlety brainlet. Bach does everything those composers do just on a geological timescale your puny unmusical brain can't follow.
>>
>>74712874
Not at all. Bach's rhythms are too samey, with variations being very occasional like when he does that sorta trill thing that's in like everything he has ever made. Lets not even forget how samey his chord progressions are, too to the extent where he has a signature one. His counterpoint isn't honestly THAT creative because it's always one melody that's just doing straight up quarter/eighth notes usually and another that's doing some slightly more variable stuff rhythmically. This isn't even getting into how lacking in dynamics his music in general is.
>>

yeah he should drown out his incompetency with dynamics like Chopin. Oh wait he has no incompetency.

How do you guys deal with zhe hzge amount of material out there? I want to listen to some less known composers but I always end up going back to Beethoven or Bach, hell i barely even listen to romantic music anymore.

Apparently Mozart could have become the greatest violinist in Europe, had he wanted it. Even while keeping it as a side instrument, he was still among the top virtuosos of his time.
Beethoven could play all of his cello compositions by himself, although his technique was as sloppy as his piano technique (he never played it in public, though).
Hindemith was a virtuoso with no concert instrument, but he could play all of them proficiently.
As someone else noted, Paganini was a great violin virtuoso.
Harold Bauer started as a violin virtuoso, then switched to piano.

Also it's not technically an instrument, but Tchaikovsky and Saint-Saens were excellent ballet dancer, and were particularly good at imitating ballerinas (apparently they had a legendary 3-hour ballet duel, with Anton Rubinstein accompanying at the piano).
>>
>>74727951
>Mozart could have become the greatest violinist in Europe, had he wanted it.

Highly doubt this. His concertos are nice, but his weakest violin writing and I can't really think of anything in his sonatas that is that demanding. He was probably 'good' in the smooth parlor style that the nobility liked.

By comparison, Bach's solo violin writing is absolutely outrageous. Pretty much the Paganini caprices of his day, and I'd argue even more rigorous in some ways.

>>74730283
Reading an interview with Rautavaara:

"I think that the twelve tempered tones are the music-vocabulary of this century, but the question is the organization of that vocabulary. That is the great question, and my solution was to seek a synthesis of this modernism and tonal harmony, and to use personal variations of the 12-tone technique. That kind of organization did not have anything to do with that of Schoenberg or Webern, but was my way of organizing those twelve tones in a way which led me to use the harmony in the way I wanted. That was maybe the reason why I started to seek for a synthetic style. For instance, in the beginning of the 7th Symphony, there goes on a series of minor chords for six or seven pages, but the roots of those chords follow a 12-tone row. So I have both my beloved harmony and I have that vocabulary. That is very typical for my work."

Sorry, but I don't love this clip... nice timbre but her wobble is too big for my taste!
Have a different Bellini opera, I Capuleti e i Montecchi, this one with DiDonato, Netrebko, and Polenzani from about 10 years ago.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHW2ujnaoLs

Some highlights from part 1 of 2

I love the overture, especially at 3:15 and onward. It sounds so friendly, upbeat and fun despite being in an opera where both the leads die by suicide, and then at 3:47 it gets even catchier.

Tebaldo [=Tybalt] gets a beautiful aria and cabaletta from 12:55 to like 20 mins in

Romeo and Juliet get a wonderful scene from 46:25 for more than 12 minutes afterward, the climax is from like 59:00 to 1:02:30

There's much more to love if you listen to it all
