Saw the movie A Late Quartet yesterday, what a load of melodramatic crap, I felt more at home during the harp scene in django unchained.

Best dumb pseudo-classical movie of the past few years was Grand Piano. It was basically Speed but instead of Keanu Reeves on a bus, it was Elijah Wood at a piano.

Because of all this music talk, what are some good classical-music movies I may have not seen?
>>63791215
Whoops, movie talk, not music talk (ironic I guess).
>>63791215
Tales of Hoffmann from 1951 is very good.

While loaded with memes, they do have some good recommendations. As far as Redclit goes, that sub is one of the less cancerous.

HA I bet you underrate Roslavets too pleb
I'm trying to assemble a (relatively) comprehensive list of contemporary choral composers. Thus far I'm familiar with Adams, Tavener, Jenkins, Whitacre, Williams, Brissoto, Shaw, Schnittke, Monk, Zorn, Williamson, Golijov, Durufle, Musgrave, Rutter, Esenvalds, Mealor, Gjeilo, Panufnik, Dove, MacMillan and of course Pärt. Who am I missing?
>>63793283
Richard Einhorn. He's not particularly given much attention but he's a personal favourite.
can anyone recommend more large choral + orchestra pieces similar to his requiem?
>>63794988
Haydn's The Creation and The Seasons, also Beethoven's D major mass.
>>63794988
pergolesi and scarlatti stabat mater
mozart mass in c minor
bach passions
brahms requiem
>>63793283
xenakis

Especially if you're striving to paint like that. Seriously why would you do that?
