/classical/

I started with his Winterreise, it's fucking great. Go, listen to it right now.

You know, musically it's not that adventurous, especially in light of Ligeti's previous oeuvre, but I do have a special place in my heart for this, the last truly worthwhile opera ever. It's refreshing because the singing and the plot and the little details make it properly contemporary and thus feels less detached from reality. It's actually endearing to hear a singer burp between his lines, you know? And of course, musically it's as good as high modernist opera gets, this side of Berg. It's a meme piece, for sure, but it's a *good* meme piece. Unlike certain other even more contemporary operas that are an absolute mess *helicopter noises*

Its the general idea, I usually refrain from listening to people singing when I'm not actively listening.
How does it feel to have a reading disability? You listen to some Yas Forumscore newfag garbage and think I'm close minded? I said this is the only genre that truly puts me at peace, I have listened to more music than you can ever imagine.

What does /classical/ think of Peteris Vasks?

we don't

[Vienna
Summer, 1826]

Since you at least have followed my advice, all is forgiven and forgotten, more about it with you by word of mouth. Today quite calm. Do not think that any other thought weighs with me than that of your welfare, and judge my actions from this — do not take a step which may bring you into trouble and may shorten my life. I only got to sleep about 3 o'clock, for I was coughing the whole night. I embrace you heartily, and am sure that you will soon misunderstand me no longer, thus do I also judge your behaviour of yesterday. I expect you without fail today at one o'clock, give me no more trouble and anxiety, meanwhile farewell.

Your true and faithful father.

[PS] We are alone, I would not let H[olz] come on that account, all the more as I wish that nothing may be said about yesterday, come then — let my poor heart bleed no longer.
- Beethoven

Why is he so pure, bros?

Is Schubert just an inferior Mozart or how does it work?

please don't post again

I literally refuse to listen to Beethoven because he was less than 5'8.
What are some composers who aren't midgets?
