edition
old
>>60237553
this is a horrible edition
I'm pretty new to going to concerts.
Seen Beethovens 5th and Mozarts Requiem.
It was all good and all and the orchestra was great.
One question though.
Is it like a tradition for the audience to applaude for five minutes and the conductor having to get on and off the stage three times? Or did I attend great performances and were to pleb to realise it?

Its happened at pretty much every concert I've gone to. I was super confused the first couple times I started laughing cause i though i was being fucking pranked like the 5th time he walked out and then back in.
Hell, I went to see la traviatta and the audience started screaming and banging their hands together like apes before the final cadences had even finished.
Pretty disgusting if you ask me.

It was almost comical. When the conductor got on for the third time then some giant fucking whale of a man who was wider than he was tall came wobbling out with and presented the conductor with a flower bouquet.
I almost lost my shit there and then.
I really want to get into Romanticism, I love the concept of it and want to hear something powerful that will make me swoon and seduce me. Recs?

Missa Solemnis
War Requiem
Verdi's Requiem
If you can't feel yourself being drawn inexorably to sing along joyfully as the Missa Solemnis reaches 'Et Resurrexit', soaring up through the voice parts and then declaring with loud voice, over and over again, 'Credo in Spiritum Sanctum, Dominum et vivificantem' then you deserve hellfire desu.
If you're not moved by the dialogue between a dead soldier and the soldier who killed him at the end of the Requiem, moving into the sumptuous 'In Paradisum' as choirs of men, women and children recite the latin over the interweaving voices of the two soldiers wishing for an eternal rest after the horrors they have experienced, then you probably have no heart.
And if the terror of the soprano soloist in the Libera Me of Verdi's requiem doesn't move you to absolute and abject terror in the face of judgement by the almighty, before the fugue sets in as the shrieking choruses of humanity beg to be saved whilst the trumpets sound, then you're either really brave or really stupid
