That makes sense. Thanks for the explanation. I did know that communism had a long history in Italy with Gramsci and Malatesta etc., but I didn't know it was still socially acceptable to be a communist in the modern day.

You know, I admire Starker as a player; he has insanely virtuosic/mechanical precision that it's uncanny. But when he says he plays without sentimentality, I can't help but think he means any emotion at all. His Kodaly interpretation is just so lacking in what I think the spirit of the piece is...

Well I'm twice as interested now. Probably why I liked him in the first place. Will check Obukhov and Wyschengradsky too. Double thanks
Not Russian, but in a similar vein to Shebalin, have you heard Ernst Toch? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CO4cNb317TQ

I'm only now discovering classical music lads. Went through the "Best of"s of all the greats whose names even I know over the past few days.

Brahms and Haydn were by a significant margin the most pleasurable of all. Am I a pleb for enjoying them far more than the likes of Mozart or Chopin? What others would you recommend?
>>
>>64107128
Nah you're not a pleb. Though what have you listened to by Haydn and what have you listened to by Mozart? And why do you prefer Haydn over Mozart, out of curiosity?

Thoughts?
>>
>>64107207
I have only listened to:

Best of Haydn: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmZF3kBZQ6E
Best of Mozart: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rb0UmrCXxVA

As well as similar extremely basic collections of Brahms, Beethoven, Vivaldi, Verdi, Liszt, Bach, Chopin, Tchaikovsky, Schubert, Strauss, Handel, Dvorak, and Debussy over the past week, mostly while working.

I mostly wanted to sample a bit of everything to select a few I liked the most and get more in depth with those. I guess the contents of the selection itself might have as much of an impact on my reactions as the general character of each artist though. The fact that I was working at the time and the music was just background most likely had a huge effect as well.

Brahms and Haydn had a very enjoyable mellow flow throughout - I could hear, appreciate, and actually really enjoy the music, while at the same time being able to concentrate on other things without being distracted.

Listening to Chopin was the polar opposite of Brahms and Haydn, I couldn't focus on other things at all.

Mozart was enjoyable but didn't stand out particularly, most likely I've listened to too many different things one after the other. I should have taken notes.
>>
>>64107560

You're right, I heard the transcription first and thought it was alright, but the original is noticeably better.

Are there any particular recordings you'd recommend for his stuff?
>>
>>64107895
Well to be fair, that Haydn selection is way better than the Mozart selection.
Listen to the entirety of Mozart's:
>40th and 41st symphony
>20th, 21st, 24th Piano Concertos
>Requiem in D minor (you can stop after the Lacrimosa, the rest was written after Mozart died and pales in comparison)
>Sonatas K310, K311

Also listen to Haydn's 104th Symphony, I'm appalled that's not on the list.

The Furtwangler recording.

Of almost all the conductor/performers who are also composers, his are some of the best compositions. Very cool modernist works rather than crappy neo-romatic 2nd rate Mahler pastiches that most conductors manage.

He wrote his own Mozart cadenzas too which are extremely good

>Of almost all the conductor/performers who are also composers
Not exactly an uncommon thing, though. A good majority of the composers I know were also at the very least competent performers. Though it differs from composer to composer whether or not how actively they engaged in performing.
>>
>>64127130
Not that I know of sadly

Schoenberg could apparently play just about every instrument and even wanted to join the Hollywood Quartet and do a Quintet recital with them sometime (with him on cello).

Only a few recordings of him conducting actually exist though, but they are interesting

This general is almost an anomaly on this board, and since the death of CLT it has been so uneventful and slow.

I suggest we gradually migrate to /his/ - history and humanities with a parallel general. /his/ is literally "high culture, the board". Already literature and art film are discussed there instead of remaining on the more plebeian /lit/ and /tv/.
>>
Romanticism is trash.

Prove me wrong: you can't.
>>
>>64131393
Prove yourself right first.
>>
>>64131260
/his/ is mediocre. It's mostly threads about war/conquests and 19 year old's from /lit/ posting about philosophy and religion. Yawn.
>>
>>64131546
It's not like this board is better.
>>
>>64131260
Do you think any of the people there could provide discussion?
>>64131546
When I went there, it seemed like people who played Civilization larping about ancient warfare.
>>
>>64131260
>>64131708
/his/ is slower than /mu/, so it would be even deader than here. Not to mention that they're only interested in marching band music and folk tunes. You may get something akin to the fine arts threads going twice a months with threads consisting of nothing but youtube link dumps, but it's unlikely you'd get any meaningful discussion going with the /his/choolers. You'd have better luck over at /lit/ desu.
>>
>>64131849
/lit/ usually has an inferior catalog to /his/, imo. I think that's because it is for those who respect classics, have a scientific/historical approach to knowledge, and are multidisciplinary. The opposite of those makes for worse posting.
>>
>>64131849
>/lit/
Yes, but this isn't literature. Discussion of poetry in Classical music might fit in but a /Classical/ thread would be baleeted.
>>
>>64132027
>>64132152
I agree completely but I'm not surprised to see dissent ITT. Music has a much younger tradition and the masters of the art were in many respects tradesmen. Compare that to something like literature, ancient and aristocratic, and you might understand why music enthusiasts would be more against of joining a synthetic enterprise like /his/ than the other demographics.

I also think /his/ has more postgrads or higher, just going off the references used and amount of niche stuff.

Are there any good composers whose sole talent lay in their good taste in music, which they used to basically plagiarise and combine snippets from other sources to great effect? So their knowledge of theory and performance would be amateurish at best in this case.

I remember reading a biography ages ago, and I know he had some sort of difficulties at school but I thought that was the non-musical subjects?

Why? I'm not looking for inspiration. Just thought it would be interesting, the critic as composer. Schumann was really talented all-round of course.
>>

You sounded like a person that wants to compose, but realizes their lack of talent.Now you hope you can "make it" with knowledge alone and are trying to learn if that's possible.

He had to write a lot of music, it was his job. You try writing some thousand works without borrowing from older ones.

With the exception of the Hammerklavier fugues (both of them), those aren't his best or most original ones. I'd list Op. 101/IV's development, Op. 110/III and the penultimate variation of the Diabelli set instead.

Wow, some of Debussy's stuff sounds like modern piano jazz from over 70 years later. Amazing.
