Why did music go to shit after Baroque?

Because you touch yourself at night.

But Viennese classicism is considered the golden-age of music. Baroque is the intermediary between 'renaissance' music and Classical.

NO ONE TALK SHIT ABOUT MY FAVORITE COMPOSER

THIS IS A WARNING

Do you guys know any more light, happy classical music like this?

youtube.com/watch?v=N78NfMXeA4A

Sorry, I can't recommend anything like that because it's shit.

kek I came here yesterday and someone posted this

youtube.com/watch?v=tP_7SuJn10g

I wanted to fucking kill myself it was so bad, I can't believe you people listen to this dog shit

Dumb

wait, are you seriously telling me you listen to that fucking pile of shit hahahahahahahahha someone help me

It's significantly less boring and generic than what you posted, and I don't even like it that much.

You'd probably enjoy Chopin, who is famous for his short piano works, including waltzes, Anonymous.

What's the greatest musical composition of all time?

do you guys listen only to classical?

Yep. I don't listen to anyone other than Haydn and Mozart.

a little more melancholic but I'm sure you aren't picky

youtube.com/watch?v=J---aiyznGQ

Further proof that Mozart is underrated.

Despite the kitsch, Beethoven's ninth.

That's how pathetic the medium known as "music" truly is.

No. When it comes to the 20th century it's a red flag to only care for art music.

For me it's Chopin's fugue in A minor - intelligent, nihilistic, and with a wicked sense of humor

>No. When it comes to the 20th century it's a red flag to only care for art music.
there are people who actually think like this

Chopin - Nocturne Op. 9 No. 2 in E flat major

Canon in D

When it comes to food, it's a red flag not to care for McDonald's cheeseburgers.

they have good chickie nuggs

music sucks

Art music of our period neglected the body for the mind.

You can see this in the 4/4_allegro.jpg meme

All music appreciation is in the mind retard

Body-shaming is gross and harmful. Please don't post misandristic things like this.

How does it make you feel that you're perpetuating a culture of hatred and dehumanization?

hatred is solace :>

Der Ring

Can a beautiful melody be written for literally any chord progression?

Probably not.

beautiful melodies can be written without any definite chord progression. So provided your chords aren't distracting meme shit (like random dissonant chords rooted on any of the twelve tones that change every 16th note beat) it will probably work

Of course melodies are extremely subjective so someone like Rachmaninoff might not agree on its beauty. But would I be able to find beauty there? Probably

Fuck off.

Can anyone recommend some choral pieces? I just went to a recital yesterday and I'm really interested.

Bruckner 8ths and I'm not even memeing.

biber f minor requiem
Bartók cantata profane
Xenakis cenfrees
Smalldicksky Symphony of psalms

Thanks, appreciate the start. I definitely love the women vocals

Mozart's Marriage of Figaro.

Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 :^)

Thanks for putting the meme face in there. I wouldn't have known you were joking otherwise.

French Baroque has the fortune of not being autistic as the Germans or Mediocre like the Italians

Charpentier, Rameau, Couperin, Clérambault, and Chambonnières are all God-tier

What are some good classical guitar albums? Preferably acoustic but electric welcome too.

>Viennese classicism is considered the golden-age of music

Maybe by Rosen and his conniving sycophants. Everyone with experience and taste understands that Bach was the peak of human achievement in the medium of music.

Fuck off Bog poster

>liking Bogzart and Boghms

Isn't Dvorak's New World Symphony basically the A Love Supreme of the classical world?

>Meme in Meme minor

You probably think Mozart's memequiem is good as well

>Mozart poster thinks his shit-tier bait opinions upset me

You're going to have to try harder than that.

>Bachtist can't even have good taste in Bach
Typical.

more like Death Grips if Death Grips wrote a cyclical symphony in 4 parts with no black hobo rapping and instead it's a gorgeous english horn solo and if Zach Hill wrote string parts

>The Mass in B minor is widely regarded as one of the supreme achievements of classical music. Alberto Basso summarizes the work as follows:

>The Mass in B minor is the consecration of a whole life: started in 1733 for "diplomatic" reasons, it was finished in the very last years of Bach's life, when he had already gone blind. This monumental work is a synthesis of every stylistic and technical contribution the Cantor of Leipzig made to music. But it is also the most astounding spiritual encounter between the worlds of Catholic glorification and the Lutheran cult of the cross.[41]

>Scholars have suggested that the Mass in B minor belongs in the same category as The Art of Fugue, as a summation of Bach's deep lifelong involvement with musical tradition—in this case, with choral settings and theology. Bach scholar Christoph Wolff describes the work as representing "a summary of his writing for voice, not only in its variety of styles, compositional devices, and range of sonorities, but also in its high level of technical polish... Bach's mighty setting preserved the musical and artistic creed of its creator for posterity."[42]

>The Mass was described in the 19th century by the editor Hans Georg Nägeli as "The Announcement of the Greatest Musical Work of All Times and All People" ("Ankündigung des größten musikalischen Kunstwerkes aller Zeiten und Völker").[43] Even though it had never been performed, its importance was appreciated by some of Bach's greatest successors: by the beginning of the 19th century Forkel and Haydn possessed copies, and Beethoven made two attempts to acquire a score.[44]

[citation needed]

guys pause your shitposting for a hot minute i need halp

>Bachtists ruin another thread
Reminder that Handel > Bach.

If a modern pop star tried to make classical music it would sound exactly like one of Mozart's piano concertos

>Alberto Basso

Italians have no credibility to anything they say,

Wrong

true

how many more threads is this shitflinging going to go on for

Beethoven's quartets 13 (with the revised final) and 14
Mozart's "Haydn" quartets
Haydn's Ops. 33 and 76
Schubert's last 2 quartets

Until Mozautists realize they're wrong.

thanks dude or dudette

Why is Mozart being compared with the greatest composer of all time when he wasn't even the best of his era? He's a musical midget compared to Bach. Pit him against Haydn, that's more fair (and even then he falls short).

What is the Evangelion of classical music?

>He's a musical midget compared to Bach.
BACH vs. MOZART

Opera - Mozart
Chamber music - Mozart
Symphonies - Mozart
Choral - Bach
Concertos - Tie
Solo - Bach

FINAL TALLY:
Mozart: 3.5
Bach: 2.5

Chamber music - Bach
Choral - Bach
Concertos - Bach

You can't compare them in opera or symphony if Bach never made an opera or symphony, genius (if he had, he'd most definitely win).

thanks

whats this from? a movie?

>Mozautist thinks music is a sports competition

Typical.

It's strange how people from Haydn to Chopin to Schoenberg see Mozart as one of musics greatest achievements, someone with an endless creative mind who pushed the boundaries for composers of the future. But some Bachtist anons see him as boringand unoriginal.
It seems like even now Mozart is 2deep4u

Beethoven is the best desu senpai

>didn't even drop the bass
stay in the shallow end of the pool kiddo

>Cendrees
Is there really only one recording of this? wtf

Mozart is the best of the big 3 shitposting and trolling aside though.

The best thing about Bach is that no one has to defend him or aggrandize his reputation. The music speaks for itself.

The best thing about Mozart is that no one has to defend him or aggrandize his reputation. The music speaks for itself.

The best thing about Wanhal is that no one has to defend him or aggrandize his reputation. The music speaks for itself.

The best thing about Petzold is that no one has to defend him or aggrandize his reputation. The music speaks for itself.

The best thing about user is that no one has to defend him or aggrandize his reputation. The shitposting speaks for itself.

Not really.
Crawford Seeger and Carter are the superior Americans.

No. I listen to stuff like Sigur Ros too.

>listening to female composers

opinion discarded

Patriarchy pls go.

Gentle reminder that folk musics have higher emotional profundity than any other type of music.

The fact that so many books still name Mozart as "the greatest or most significant or most influential" composer ever only tells you how far classical music still is from becoming a serious art. Jazz critics have long recognized that the greatest jazz musicians of all times are Duke Ellington and John Coltrane, who were not the most famous or richest or best sellers of their times, let alone of all times. Rock critics rank the highly controversial The Beatles over rock musicians who were highly popular in imageboards on the Internet. Classical critics are still blinded by prolificity. Mozart wrote more than anyone else (not true, by the way), therefore he must have been the greatest. Jazz critics grow up listening to a lot of jazz music of the past, rock critics grow up listening to a lot of rock music of the past. Classical critics are often totally ignorant of the baroque music of the past, they barely know the best composers. No wonder they will think that Mozart did anything worthy of being saved.

literally what happened

It's hard to tell. Cred Forums and SA impacted language and humor, but not really anything else. And even then, only like 0.5% of the shit that comes from these places gets mainstream appeal.

/prog/ invented a novel sorting algorithm. Several major contributors to mpv are Cred Forumsentoomen. Cred Forums made a visual novel which is probably the most famous English language one. /lit/ wrote a book. Cred Forums is probably the OpenBSD of Internet communities when it comes to influence/size ratios.

/prog/ wasn't the first to come up with the sleep sort idea (funny as it is), and even if they did, it's just one of countless programming jokes out there.

The vast majority of Cred Forums doesn't know shit about programming, and the ones who do generally aren't great. Contributions to a huge OSS project does not equal cultural significance.

Japanese visual novels are already niche as it is. I don't follow weeb stuff much but I doubt whatever Cred Forums made is significant.

/lit/'s book is hilarious but not significant or known.

Those things are only significant and humorous to people already highly familiar with imageboard culture.

Sadly, Cred Forums's lasting legacy may end up primarily being Cred Forums and a small handful of Cred Forums and /r9k/ memes; pretty much the 3 worst boards. At this point I'm just curious to see what medium will replace Cred Forums and the standard imageboard format.

Not creative enough to set trends and not productive enough to follow them. Italian music truly peaked at late baroque.

Italian Opera hadn't been good since Porpora. I blame the decline of castratos.

>today I learned that the harpsichord has been around since the 1300s

is there any survivng harpsichord/clavichord music from that era, i.e. pre-renaissance? I can't seem to find much information

what is some essential chamber music? besides the obvious (trout quintet, beethoven haydn quartets)

Borodin, Bartok, Schoenberg quartets
Kammermusik

What's the difference between all the memes like Sonata, Opera, Concerto, Chamber music?
It's all just beep boop on piano

sonata is a type of form - google "sonata form"
Opera is a drama with actors and singers singing parts, with an orchestra accompanying them live
Concerto is a piece for orchestra and a soloist, or more
Chamber music generally any music for 10 people or less

None of them inherently have anything to do with piano.

>tfw you realise the opening subject of Gombert's Musae Jovis is just the superius line from the beginning of Josquin's Nymphes des bois

Beethoven's 7th.

Get a trip, CLT!

>accused of being CLT
I don't know how to feel about this.

What are your opinions on popular music?

Do you mean the top40s or something? I enjoy a lot of poorly written stuff just because it's catchy, but the top40s aren't even catchy, they're just complete garbage

So what genres of music do you guys consider to be comparable in terms of complexity to classical? Because everyone I listen to Jupiter I feel like all those rock songs are just utter trash.

>I listen to Jupiter

wew lad

>complexity
memed well senpai
Besides classical I really like metal and eurobeat

I mean popular music. As in Rock and Jazz.

When you guys are getting new pieces to listen to, how do you decide what recordings you're gonna get?

Rock is mostly garbage except for metal, and jazz is boring as shit

I like a lot of French house, and a lot of electro-variants of various genres. Also artists with interesting/unusual vocals.

But I usually use it for background music anyways so w/e.

Depends on what it is desu. I've got a few basic gotos though

Piano: Schnabel/Richter/Zimmerman/Horowitz/Argerich
Violin: Kremer/Gilels/Mutter
Orchestral: Böhm/Walter/Abbado/Boulez/Vanska

i usually ask someone here or just browse amazon a bit and look at reviews.

but i usually wait until getting familiar with the piece before i get autistic with other recordings.

Answer the fucking question

[spoiler]p-please[/spoiler]

>unironically listens to Holst

Complexity is a meme, that's your answer
Classical isn't about complexity

So does a piano have the same range as a violin and double bass combined?

More range

It's understandable to think this way if you have never played an instrument before, or payed close attention to classical before. But musicians/conductors will play music with entirely different phrasing, tempos, etc.

Some stark examples:

Bruckner's 4th.
Celibidache vs. Karajan

Beethoven's Eroica
