Feldman's "opera" with words by Samuel Beckett. One of my favourite Feldman pieces for sure, the oppressive atmosphere sets in from bar 1 and doesn't let up for the next 50 minutes.
>>44966375 Maybe it's just me, lnyd has a recognisable posting style.
>>44966417 I can't make a living doing the music I love because it is not "concertisable," it is written for computers and contains many parts which humans can't play, and it seems like most people aren't interested in "machine music" unless it's EDM or something. I do get some income doing vidya soundtracks under another pseudonym.
>>44966420 >boulez has a bad rep And I really don't understand why. It's almost like people dismiss him without listening. Although his contemporary music recordings are perhaps his most important, his Mahler, Ravel, Stravinsky, Bartok, Webern etc. are all first rate.
Next I'm going to put up the Domaine Musicale Vols 1 & 2, early Boulez recordings (some with Rosbaud) of his own works, Stravinsky, Webern, the Darmstadt composers etc. They're great. |
| >> | No.44967077 >>44966726 Our classical threads are reaching abyssal depths of populism - plebeians are starting to take over, while we sit and do nothing and the few good posters we had tend to run away. Bad classical music becomes the norm; champion-of-the-common-man trips become more and more popular - these are truly the last days. Whither are we going? - can we let ourselves become plebeians, become average music listeners raving about how all music is equally good? We have to consider this possibility, judging from the current deliquescence of /classical/'s post quality, quantity, and its general lack of elitism. Shall we become plebs chanting the Pater Noster of mediocrity, that is, that taste is subjective? This creeping rot is quickly spreading amongst most of /classical/'s spheres: you will see people agreeing with trips defending composers like Tchaikovsky or Bruckner, you will see people defending popular music, people hating on Classical music as they once did, overblown classical music shall become acceptable again, and all the good taste we took months to establish shall be brought down by the apostates, the ever-climbing wave of iconoclast plebeians. |
