*disclaimer*- I know this isn't the right board technically but everybody on /mu/ is a 16 yo pleb. This is the board with the most patricians as well

This is actually Ravel playing the btw

>posts entry level Ravel piece, claiming it's the best classical piece
>thinks he's too good for /mu/
>doesn't post Shostakovich's 8th symphony or other sublime work

might as well have posted Clair de Lune, you pleb.

they are literally entry level because they are the most popular. Popular classical isn't like a popular movie. Only patricians listen to classical.

music taste is subjective

/thread

>thinks he's better than /mu/
>makes a desperate, attention-seeking blog post topped off by a "You have 30 seconds to" meme

none of you /mu/ crossboarders are fooling anyone, btw. yes, everyone can see your illiteracy from a mile away. and yes, everyone is laughing at you.

is classical the only music with merit?

the answer is yes. if you disagree I have a hipster music board to link you to

>implying the music of Johann Sebastian Bach has no merit

Fuck off, pleb.

who cares if it's entry level. It's still an incredible piece. As is Clair de Lune

>Bach isn't classical

straight off the stupid train kid?

now he is trying to defend his entry level taste! how pathetic

>"You have 30 seconds to tell me why this isn't the most beautiful piece of music ever composed."

LOOKS LIKE YOU JUST ANSWERED YOUR OWN QUESTION. IN THE FUTURE PLEASE REFRAIN FROM MAKING THESE FAGGY MEME THREADS FAGGOT

>being this pleb
youtube.com/watch?v=FrN0pqmwk-I

hell, even ravel's tzigane or tombeau de couperin is better than this.

>a string piece
>better then the piano

He's baroque you dip

>thinking that the piano isn't still a stringed instrument
what a pleb.

>impressionism
>good
You're the 16-year-old here.

Impressionism is the Dark Age of music, even later modernism is better.

Impressionism is pure sentimentalism and 'le emotional piano' bullshit seen in popular music.

go fuck yourself no offense though

you fucking disgusting newfaggot you probably think it's normal and cool to unironically use the pleb/patrician distinction. not only that but you took the first thing you got from youtube's classical suggested vids and try to talk about best of all time like a fucking child

you make me sick, go the fuck back to /mu/ you worthless newfaggot.

blow me you nearsighted kike (no offense my main man)

whoa, off the meds today are we faggot

>this is the board with the most patricians as well

should we tell him?

You have 30 seconds to tell me why this isn't the most sublime piece of music ever composed

youtube.com/watch?v=7maJOI3QMu0

Do I not have the greatest taste in the entire world? I know this isn't the right board, but everyone in my graduate composition school is a 16 yo pleb. This is the board with the most patricians as well

shut the fuck up, don't imply you weren't using classical in the broad sense of "ohh classical music is the only real music fuck justin bieber and all modern trash"

if you wanted to distinguish eras you would have first categorized OP's piece

Don't fucking reply to me OP you trash

Roman Forum sure looks amazing in your pic, OP.

that wasn't me you goddamn mongoloid
classical is what illiterate morons use to refer to art music, thinking they are the same thing

that's very nice, thanks.

kill yourself basement dweller

you don't think glenn gould is good?
must suck to be you.

although, i gotta say, not enough singing for me.
youtube.com/watch?v=qB76jxBq_gQ

Only idiots think Glenn Gould is good.

He has no discipline as a studio musician, and treats it like his living room. You confuse his celebrity status with quality.

the new death grips album is objecively better than all this old pap.

music has moved on retards.

You're like the type of faggots who still ride a horse to get around instead of driving.

>le clip clop sound is le patrician XD XD
>born in le wrong generation

kys immediately for the good of the world

sounds like whining to me.
i bet you're a failed musician jealous of pure talent.

>Only patricians listen to classical.
that's patently false and the only people who think this are plebs who think they get a get out of pleb free card because they listened to Chopin once

Project harder.

He has no talent, this is obvious to anybody with any education.

i bet you think tolkien was a good author too, eh?
god, the plebs are out in full force today.

Nope.

Stop projecting, dear.

you do realize that projection is not always replaceable for contempt, right? i am neither a failed musician, nor do i like tolkien, whereas instead i am accusing you of having poor taste. if one might use your poor argument against you, when you implied that people who found talent in glenn gould's work had no education, you were projecting. see how useless that proposition is?

You're a failure of a musician (by praising a hack) and enjoy the equivalents of Tolkien.

Nope.

Stop projecting, dear.

Enjoying music does not make one a musician.

OH MY GODD SHUT THE FUCK UP

I did not call you a musician, I called you a failed musician.

Is English not your first language?

oh, i see, you're an idiot.
carry on, friend.

>not liking tolkien
well this is how I know you're both plebs.

>Shostakovich
>sublime in any way
>not entry level

If your idea of sublime is using established elements of the Romantic idiom to achieve a predictable effect, then yeah. Shostakovich sure is great.

Beethoven is the greatest of all time and deserves the distinction. The only people who come close are Mozart and Bach.

>Beethoven is the greatest of all time and deserves the distinction.
beethoven and mozart are shit

Bach is great

0/10

no one would ever consider rap as actual music

Because the greatest work for keyboard (perhaps the greatest overall) is the Hammerklavier. The greatest short work for keyboard is a tough one. Perhaps Chopin's first ballad, if you can consider it short.

You trying to tell me Thelonius Monk and Charles Minus are without merit?

Jazz isn't even music.

why?

>le black people hooga booga bee bop doo wop

That is very nice, reminded me to get more into Ravel, always like this by him, especially the first movement:

youtube.com/watch?v=al7I97UsuYA

You have no idea what classical music is, do you?

It's a percussive instrument

You're such a pleb it's even sad

Johann Sebastian Bach was a German composer and musician of the Baroque period - you horrendous fucking moron.

"Pavana para una infanta difunta" Olga Orozco
Pequeña centinela,
caes una vez más por la ranura de la noche
sin más armas que los ojos abiertos y el terror
contra los invasores insolubles en el papel en blanco.
Ellos eran legión.
Legión encarnizada era su nombre
y se multiplicaban a medida que tú te destejías hasta el último hilván,
arrinconándote contra las telarañas voraces de la nada.
El que cierra los ojos se convierte en morada de todo el universo.
El que los abre traza las fronteras y permanece a la intemperie.
El que pisa la raya no encuentra su lugar.
Insomnios como túneles para probar la inconsistencia de toda realidad;
noches y noches perforadas por una sola bala que te incrusta en lo
oscuro,
y el mismo ensayo de reconocerte al despertar en la memoria de la
muerte:
esa perversa tentación,
ese ángel adorable con hocico de cerdo.
¿Quién habló de conjuros para contrarrestar la herida del propio
nacimiento?
¿Quién habló de sobornos para los emisarios del propio porvenir?
Sólo había un jardín: en el fondo de todo hay un jardín
donde se abre la flor azul del sueño de Novalis.
Flor cruel, flor vampira,
más alevosa que la trampa oculta en la felpa del muro
y que jamás se alcanza sin dejar la cabeza o el resto de la sangre en el
umbral.
Pero tú te inclinabas igual para cortarla donde no hacías pie,
abismos hacia adentro.
Intentabas trocarla por la criatura hambrienta que te deshabitaba.
Erigías pequeños castillos devoradores en su honor;
te vestías de plumas desprendidas de la hoguera de todo posible paraíso;
amaestrabas animalitos peligrosos para roer los puentes de la salvación;
te perdías igual que la mendiga en el delirio de los lobos;
te probabas lenguajes como ácidos, como tentáculos,
como lazos en manos del estrangulador.
¡Ah los estragos de la poesía cortándote las venas con el filo del alba,
y esos labios exangües sorbiendo los venenos de la inanidad de la
palabra!
Y de pronto no hay más.
Se rompieron los frascos.
Se astillaron las luces y los lápices.
Se degarró el papel con la desgarradura que te desliza en otro
laberinto.
Todas las puertas son para salir.
Ya todo es el revés de los espejos.
Pequeña pasajera,
sola con tu alcancía de visiones
y el mismo insoportable desamparo debajo de los pies:
sin duda estás clamando por pasar con tus voces de ahogada,
sin duda te detiene tu propia inmensa sombra que aún te sobrevuela en
busca de otra,
o tiemblas frente a un insecto que cubre con sus membranas todo el caos,
o te amedrenta el mar que cabe desde tu lado en esta lágrima.
Pero otra vez te digo,
ahora que el silencio te envuelve por dos veces en sus alas como un
manto:
en el fondo de todo jardín hay un jardín.
Ahí está tu jardín,
Talita cumi

:'(

Too carnal and ego-focused.
Said every uneducated teenager that just discovered a new meme ever.
Bach is baroque.

Classical music is a catch-all term for a certain stylistic and transcription-oriented musical tradition from Europe.

The Classical period is a time period in which composers had a particular shared tradition within classical music, ending around the time of Beethoven.

Bach was a Baroque composer of classical music. You're autistic.

>Bach was a Baroque composer of classical music.
That's an oxymoron.

lel
Classical music wasn't even used as a term until people wanted to complain about how "the new music" (read: Mahler) was destroying the tradition of the period from Bach to Beethoven. Classical music refers to both the specific period and the overall form. Deal with it.

Nice literature.

it looks better when it's drawn in the anime style

So what music do you like anons?

You're thinking of the common practice period. The classical period was roughly 1750 to 1820.

wow i didnt know ravel could play the btw

grody

Man this thread
To answer your question, OP, while it is a beautiful piece, I'm quite a fan of simplicity and just longing beautiful phrases, it is in fact Debussy's "La Damoiselle Elue" that is the most beautiful piece composed. That or his Pritemps. Listen and know the truth.

You have 30 seconds to tell me why this isn't the cutest pianist on the planet

thank you. First post in this thread that wasn't obnoxiously negative.

this is just not true. Just because Beethoven and Mozart are the most well known, doesn't mean theyre shit

Bach is trash

Mmmm, Mozart though.

Do I REALLY need to post CP so mods actually come ?

imo gaspard de la nuit is Ravels best work

1/10 b8
10/10 pleb

The Pilgrim's Chorus is great. Just like the rest of the piece..

They're talentless hacks. Mozart was literally autistic and beethoven was literally deaf. Meme composers

delet this

Wrong. It's alright, i'll point you in the right direction:

Am I pleb if I think the main themes of the first and third movement of this quartet are some of the most beautiful? I still haven't found anything that moves me in quite the same way as this quartet.
