I mean it's like 95% tonal but whatever. For the basic bitches that follow him it's a pretty good intro to classical music

What a newfaggy choice for your only Brahms

>>63832535
that's fair. and probably better than just telling them to listen to Schonberg until they get it.
>>
>>63832260
I wonder what limitations he put upon himself in formulating this list. It's so hard to form a list of best classical works. I'm a violinist of 18 years and I've never come across a professional classical musician who would even go so far as to say a single work was their favourite
>>
>>63832406
This

Beethoven's 5th and 7th symphonies are better than 9th.

Art of the Fugue and the Well-Tempered Clavier are better than the Brandenburg Concertos. He doesn't include cantatas.

>Verdi's Requiem and not his operas. Choosing Verdi's requiem over Berlioz's requiem.

>Including Wagner at all

>No Don Giovanni or Mozart's sacred music

Worst Brahms symphony.

No Dvorak chamber music.

>No Boulez, Berg, Bruckner, Sibelius, Ravel, Schumann, Haydn, Schoenberg or Mendelssohn

All in all, for someone who claims to be a patrician for rock music, he's the plebiest or plebs when it comes to everything else.

I sure hope you never intend to make a career out of music.

>>63832535
Mozart is better than whatever you listen to.

>berlioz symphonie

This is probably the worst list of classical music I've ever seen, if this is intended to be objective then I am fucking flabbergasted.

That's some shitty taste you have there, friend.

What are you smoking? Vivaldi was great.

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

No Chopin?

>>63834353
chopin is 4 fags
>>
>>63834472
Chopin single handed lay changed counterpoint
>>
>>63832260
well if it's anything like his jazz list than I know it's shit. also no Chopin, Saint-saëns Ravel or Tchaikovsky
>>
>>63834493
still 4 fags
>>
>Scaruffi's greatest classical list
It's a teaser, you imbeciles. He did this with his jazz and film pages. It's the lists on the right that people should be critical of.
>>
>>63832406
This and there's no Prokofiev
>>
>>63833736
>schubert quintet just why?

Uh, that's not an unpopular opinion...It generally ends up at the top of or at least 2nd to Beethoven op. 131 in rankings of chamber music.
>>
>>63835310
Can you point me to some credible classical ranked lists? So far i only scaruffi's lists to refer to.

>>63833736

seconding this question

>>63832260
>tfw no bruckner
>>
>>63833736

Le sacre was good stuff, although I do agree that more substantial works of Debussy could have made it on, or at least other French composers like Ravel or Fauré.

There's also a surprising lack of Chopin, Schumann, and atonal composers.
