so ded lately
>>63814029
Can I listen to Stravinsky without being considered gay?
Are Chopin and DeBussy allowed or are they entry level shit?
Is it edgy if I dislike Classical and Romantic composers and just listen to Baroque and Modern?
Am I a hipster if I listen to non-western classical music like Cantemir or Carnatic music?
Are Jordi Savalli's projects pleb-tier?
I'm not up to date with the /mu/ consensus on classical, I'm a noob to the "genre" in general.
>>63814076
It seems that all of the trips have stopped posting. CLT and Poly always got discussion going.
>>63814177
I like most of that stuff. Like what you enjoy and don't let others dictate what you like.
I dont know if this is the right place to ask.
Can anyone tell me a good site to look for LPs and shit?
My father is looking for "Largo : de skonneste melodier for cello og orgel" and i cant find jack shit about it anywhere.

my phone says it classical
Reminder that Stravinsky is garbage and Bartok is only mildly good. Listen to Debussy and Webern.

RIP in peace classical

Finally someone on here recognizes Lully's talent.
>>63816204
None of these composers are underrated.
If anything a few of them are overrated.
>>63816735
Tbf on /Classical/ they're underrated but that says more for classical's taste.
>>63816840
>no one but poly cares about Shitnittke and Martinu boo hoo
And people talk about Scriabin and Boulez all the time. Maybe a case can be made for the earlier composers on there since hardly anyone talks about music pre-Bach.
>>63816735
eh I kind of agree. They're underplayed as fuck though. Almost never hear any of these guys in concerts
>>63816884
desu Boulez's music isn't all that good. His prime function was conducting and getting the 20th century great into our modern performing repertoire.

This guy did a two-hour lecture on Grosse Fuge, but right at the beginning he says it's a double fugue.

Am I just a pleb for understanding it as a triple fugue, even when this graphical score video appears to agree with me?

shame he never conducted a cycle

>Boulez's music isn't all that good
Maybe he is underrated.
>>63814243
Well, here's how I did my sleuthing. You're lucky I'm bored, dude:
>google translate - couldn't get shit
>google the cellist's name. he's Danish
>try translating from Danish
>"de skonneste melodier for cello og orgel" suggested
>google that, found the tracklist:
https://bibliotek.dk/da/work/870970-basis:03211193
>search record label's site for other releases with Bruch
http://www.danacord.dk/frmsets/ud-comp.html
>still can't find it
No idea where you could actually find that one, but maybe the label distributed all the tracks among other releases, like this one
http://www.danacord.dk/frmsets/records/667-668-r.html
>>63818266
huh. the "o" in "skonneste" should have a line through it.
>>63816735
Disagreed. Joachim Raff has some of the best stuff I've ever heard, and I don't think I've ever seen him discussed here.
>>63816204
>Reicha's fugues are incredible
Why has no one heard of him?
Damn

so appropriate for /mu/
>>63819346
>la meme fugue
what did he mean by this?
>>63814029
Do any of you guys know of any books that can help me improve my musical literacy?
I want to learn how to read, and maybe one day write actual musical notation. Or at least have a better understanding of orchestral music and the amount of effort it takes to write symphonies.
I have a book on 20th century modernist composers and there are notations and large explanations on the appreciation of the intricate and complex scores of Schoenberg, Stravinsky etc. and I am completely lost.
>>63820021
How versed in classical music appreciation are you already?
>>63814177
Yes
Chopin is entry level to listen, except his waltzes. Everything but his preludes are mid-tier if you actually perform them. Only one or two Debussy pieces are entry level.
It's not edgy, but your a pleb if you dislike Mozart or Haydn.
No, unless you don't share some vids or links to some of the music
Yes
>>63818975
shit, I like what I've heard on YouTube, but why the fuck are the two recordings of 36 Fugues $74 and $80?!
>>63816204
>Shittke
ayy
>>63816204
>rest in peace in peace
Why is this ded?
>>63821459
Because most don't live over 250.
>>63821238
