Why are Pianos rarely used in orchestras in contrast to other instruments? Is it because of the steel piano wire making it not blend well with the other synthetic/nylon stringed instruments which have a warmer timbre?

...yes, why?

listen to this minuet i just wrote. this one comes with a trio you all let me know what you think now vocaroo.com/o9kpoWQVkM3
weird, can't remember seeing it posted before. I posted his sextet and his 3rd piano quartet on the previous thread for what it's worth
Grayson Anderson
quite a bit better than what you've previously posted, if indeed you are the same person I understand the constraints of midi but if I were to say something that I wanted more of it would be rhythmic variation: two hands going at different speeds, slower sections, all that sort of thing. That would give a lot more life to what you have been writing I believe.
If we can consider Brahms a continuation of Schumann, then I'd say Schumbrahns. If not, then probs Mendelssohn, Berlioz, Bruchner, Tchaikovsky or Dvořák.

Is Alma a meme or genuinely good? I listened to her piano-concerto like a month ago and really liked it, but I enjoy a lot of stuff on first listen I later get bored of very quickly.
her father thinks that everyone who doesn't like her is either a modernist plotting a worldwide conspiracy against her or a nazi. I'm not kidding.
Sebastian Johnson
how would you characterize her music?
Cameron Miller
genuinely unremarkable

Brahms for me. His style is always elevated. Unlike all other romantic musicians, he never has recourse to purely external effects; he never attempts to astonish us, to strike us by some new and brilliant orchestral combination; nor do we meet in his music with anything trivial or directly imitative.
Jaxson Collins
>to astonish us, to strike us by some new and brilliant orchestral combination but user, that's part of the charm of romanticism, it's only a problem when overdone or when it's all a composer has to give
Evan Lee
No it's being played by the uploader ('toothless toe' on youtube). He's a Sorabji shitposter and I don't doubt he posts here sometimes
Gabriel Evans
had you read literally one more post you'd have seen we covered this
not the other guy, but there's a pretty neat blog that analises and deconstructs most of his works stockhausenspace.blogspot.com/ >What beliefs did he hold he literally went insane in the 70s so who knows, but aliens were probably involved

Go look at yourself in the mirror. Recognize how desirous of attention you are. Recognize that garnering negative attention by saying hollow and stupid things does not satisfy the urge that prompted the act. Recognize that if you stopped acting like a retard for five minutes you might achieve the connection you seek so badly.

tl;dr

>Mozart was a bad composer who died too late rather than too early Glenn Gould
>Mozart's music is dull Maria Callas
>If a man tells me he likes Mozart, I know in advance that he is a bad musician Frederick Delius
That Delius quote is being misinterpreted, Gould was literally mentally challenged and Callas was a woman. None of those are valid arguments against Mozart.
David Butler
>How do I understand his music? not sure if I can answer this at once but my first advice is to look past whatever prescriptive title he gave his piece. there is always a very emotional element to his music >What beliefs did he hold many are well known. one that might be surprising given his child of love persona is that he was actually quite racist and only believed europeans could compose music. he even begrudged north americans

Considering you're the one hunting down obscure quotes from musicians to frame mozart as shit, clearly you're the one who's been coping bud.
>he was actually quite racist and only believed europeans could compose music. he even begrudged north americans Based
Brody Torres
It’s true though
Grayson Jenkins
>he even begrudged north americans why did he hang out so much with them and even wrote a piece influenced by LaMonte Young?
Jace Campbell
I mean he wasn't going to ignore that America was a huge country and some of them wrote music and they became famous and whatnot. But he felt that they were culturally stunted. Whenever my mentor gave a wrong answer to his spontaneous quizzes, he would always say "a European would have known that"
