I'm trying to write in the same vain as Chopin.
So far i've gathered:
>Uses accidentals sparingly
>High usage of chord-melody
>let root notes ring out
>minimal use of 16th notes to capture the solemn feeling
>Sparingly use the root
You guys got anything else for me?

Also, does /mu/ prefer Dvorak 7 with the reorchestrated final chords? What's your favorite recording?

Kubelik for the 7th, definitely.

Example?
>>63934725
that doesn't sound like chopin at all.
he uses accidentals all the time (his music is very chromatic)
he uses mostly homophonic tunes over arpeggio chords
like I said, root notes are usually arpeggiated chords instead of root notes, literally the opposite of letting a root note ring out
He uses 16th notes all the time
same with roots.
>>63942347
this happens all the time if you listen to well crafted music. Bach and Ferneyhough have this effect on me. No matter how often you hear the music, you discover new details. Like investigating a mandelbrot fractal

>>63948212
their schubert gave me a headache
>>63948229
What was wrong with it? Haven't given their Schubert a listen myself.
>>63948825
felt overly aggressive and tense to the point where such descriptions were no longer a good thing, in my opinion. very loud and brash.
they kind of reminded me of a worse Petersen Quartet in that work. similar kind of stark contrasts (very quiet, then suddenly very loud) though it wasn't as convincing.
i thought their Janáček was alright, but i couldn't buy into that Schubert at all.

Hello everyone.
Does anyone know where I can find the score to Gavriil Popov's first symphony? I cannot find it on the English internet. Thank you very much for any help!
New to classical here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1RtIQohcehw
How you define this? Neoclassical?
>>63937739
Go to /s4s/ if you have to shitpost.
>>63949433
neoclassical implies writing in the classical period style (~1750-1820).
There were no 80s drumkits or electric bass guitar in the classical period, so no, its not neoclassical. Its faux-classical. ersatz classical. classical for people who just listened to dire straits or def leppard.
THIS is neoclassical:

Anybody heard this?
>>63949691
thats how that meme always worked for me.
Whoever posts *tips fedora* is usually the archetypical fedora wearer
>>63949433
It's not even vaguely classical sounding though. Sounds like early 80s midi wankery. It's only the visuals that confuse you into thinking it is classical.

Is there any point in listening to classical if you can't play instrument?

It's one of the all-time great quartets. Seek out the recording by the Alban Berg Quartett though.
Is Saint-Saens a meme composer?
>>63956510
Like most composers he has some meme pieces, but a lot of his chamber music is pretty good.
>>63956551
what do you recommend starting out with?
>>63956576
Christmas Oratory is God tier
>>63956576
Start with his oboe, bassoon, clarinet, and violin sonatas.
If you're looking more for orchestral peices, his piano concertos and symphonies are decent. Similar to Mendelssohn if you like him.
If you like opera, listen to Sampson & Delilah and la Princess Jaune. The latter is only one act and does the whole western "oriental" setting quite well.
What is the best way to listen to Wagner? Just downloaded Tristan and Isolde, but it's like 7 hours long. While I do plan to listen to it all the way through sometime, do you just suggest listening to one act, then taking a break before the next one?
Hi, i've been lurking here for about a year and learnt a lot, never posted though, however i'm doing a school paper on attitudes towards classical music and differences in listening habits across different ages, and i would be forever grateful if you would answer some questions i have,
When did you first hear classical music?
What got you into classical music?
Do you believe adolescents nowadays discover music differently than before?
Do you think the way you discovered classical music is a common way?
Do you think the classical music scene can seem elitist and exclusionary?
How much classical music do you think adolescents today listen to, compared to previous generations?
How do you think the Internet has changed the way people discover and listen to music?
Thanks a lot in advance
>>63957262
I take breaks between the acts, like it's done at actual performances.
These are the only good threads in /mu/.
>>63958075
>When did you first hear classical music?
idk, when I was a kid I guess
>What got you into classical music?
Nothing in particular, I heard it quite a lot growing up and at some point I just started listening closely and realised that it was pretty cool stuff
>Do you believe adolescents nowadays discover music differently than before?
Yeah probably, the internet has really made a lot more music available to a lot more people
>Do you think the way you discovered classical music is a common way?
I don't know. I think classical music can be quite hard to get into unless you know someone who listens to it though.
>Do you think the classical music scene can seem elitist and exclusionary?
I think it seems elitist rom the outside. In reality though, it's not more elitist than other kinds of music really.
>How much classical music do you think adolescents today listen to, compared to previous generations?
Maybe a bit less but I don't think classical ever really has been popular among adolescents for like the last 50 years or more.
>How do you think the Internet has changed the way people discover and listen to music?
I think it has lead to people listening to a lot more 'weird' (for lack of a better word) music that they wouldn't have been exposed to at all without internet.
>>63958075
>When did you first hear classical music?
Dunno, grew up with it
>What got you into classical music?
Grew up with it / My fedora phase in high school
>Do you believe adolescents nowadays discover music differently than before?
Somewhat, but most of it is still through the radio
>Do you think the way you discovered classical music is a common way?
Somewhat, I didn't really have music education which is what I think brings a lot of people to classical
>Do you think the classical music scene can seem elitist and exclusionary?
No, but it's fun to pretend on /classical/
>How much classical music do you think adolescents today listen to, compared to previous generations?
Less
>How do you think the Internet has changed the way people discover and listen to music?
Yeah, it's a lot easier to dig into any genre and discover on your own instead of relying on others.
>>63958730

>What got you into classical music?

>Do you believe adolescents nowadays discover music differently than before?

I went on youtube searching "best romantic classical music"
>Do you think the classical music scene can seem elitist and exclusionary?
lmao fedora tipping virgins etilism? who cares
>How much classical music do you think adolescents today listen to, compared to previous generations?
I don't think classical music ever been popular
>How do you think the Internet has changed the way people discover and listen to music?
dunno how it was before but youtube is cool
where do I start with classical guys? any charts or info graphics out there?
I'm a complete novice and have zero knowledge of classical music

>When did you first hear classical music?
My great uncle had a lot of records, so I guess "since I was a baby".
>What got you into classical music?
I enjoyed it a lot as a child. It made me feel ias in an adventure.
>Do you believe adolescents nowadays discover music differently than before?
I don't think so, really. They have much more resources than before, but not that they care.
>Do you think the way you discovered classical music is a common way?
Yes, I do. I believe kids should be educated into classical music.
>Do you think the classical music scene can seem elitist and exclusionary?
Not at all.
>How much classical music do you think adolescents today listen to, compared to previous generations?
This is a tricky question. It is obvious, because of population growth, that there are much more adolescents listening to classical music than before. But thinking proportionally, I'm not sure.
>How do you think the Internet has changed the way people discover and listen to music?
You have a very big public library on the internet, so people now can casually listen to many things that were harder to listen before (specially if they are from lower classes)
>>63958075
>When did you first hear classical music?
I didn't listen to classical seriously until I started playing classical guitar when I was 11 years old
>What got you into classical music?
I can't really tell
>Do you believe adolescents nowadays discover music differently than before?
Sort of, yeah there's the internet and all but if we're talking about the average teen then the current methods aren't that different from before, just changed in form.
>Do you think the way you discovered classical music is a common way?
Probably, my old piano teacher didn't listen to a lot of classical until he became a musician
>Do you think the classical music scene can seem elitist and exclusionary?
Not really. People that flaunt about listening to classical are a minority and this kind of people are in every medium.
>How much classical music do you think adolescents today listen to, compared to previous generations?
Less but I don't think the number has changed so much since the '50s or so
>How do you think the Internet has changed the way people discover and listen to music?
You pretty much build your own path to find whatever appeals to you, it's a lot more personal now
>>63958075
>When did you first hear classical music?
Grew up with it, started going to concerts around 12 years old
>What got you into classical music?
I play the piano, so I started with that. Around 15-16 I started to actually listen to all kinds of music and that included classical.
>Do you believe adolescents nowadays discover music differently than before?
I'd say it has changed, but not that much. A lot of people still hear new music on the radio or by friends recommendations. What has changed is the possibility to access to that music.
>Do you think the way you discovered classical music is a common way?
Probably, I guess quite some people get into it by hearing it while growing up / playing a classical instrument.
>Do you think the classical music scene can seem elitist and exclusionary?
I don't think so. It obviously depends on where you go and who you ask, but I think the scene in general is pretty welcoming to people. For example, I've seen quite some effort put by the biggest orchestras and music halls around here to appeal to people that don't normally listen to classical.
>How much classical music do you think adolescents today listen to, compared to previous generations?
I'd say less, but I don't think it has changed much in the last years.
>How do you think the Internet has changed the way people discover and listen to music?
Now it's much easier to discover new artists and genres you'd never have heard otherwise, like more obscure and underground genres would have been pretty hard to find before.
> When did you first hear classical music?
At school. My music teacher played many pieces to the class during lessons.
> What got you into classical music?
Listening to Classic FM while driving. Without trying to sound like a Redditor, being taken on a mental journey by the music.
> Do you believe adolescents nowadays discover music differently than before?
Not really. There's a broader variety of pop music but you can find it more easily than ever before on the Internet.
> Do you think the way you discovered classical music is a common way?
I guess it was, yeah.
> Do you think the classical music scene can seem elitist and exclusionary?
Nope.
> How much classical music do you think adolescents today listen to, compared to previous generations?
No more or less so.
> How do you think the Internet has changed the way people discover and listen to music?
Now that faster connections, Spotify and YouTube are here, I don't have to wait hours to download a particular track hoping that it's not that "suck my dog's dick" thing.
Found out from my grandma recently that I'm actually a descendant of Dvorak on her side. Which made me realize that I never actually listened to his works. Where do I start, /mu/? (The only one I've heard of is New World)
