Below are spewing I think about when listening to Classical Music. They are likely wrong, insultingly innacurate, and offensive to anyone who'd really understand music, but it is what it is.
|
||
Take everything with a grain of salt, and read seeking conflict and superiority.

<p>Classical season has started earlier this month, and I’ve been having a blast - attending two concerts, as well as a rehearsal - which have all been outstanding. As awesome as those have been, tonight has been particularly spectacular - I had the great priviledge of inviting my parents to listen as well.</p>

<p>It’s always the same.
|

A quiet, mysterious opening, slowly picking up intensity and volume.
|
||
Growing louder and louder, increasing in complexity - new sounds slowly file in.
|
||
And somehow, it snuck up on you - you’re bathed in symphonic might, overflowing with emotion.
|
||
It’s the Bruckner symphony.</p>

<p>I am a symphonic person. There’s no denying it - I’m gobsmacked by sweeping orchestral manuevers. Romantic symphonies, such as Brahms’ 4th and Tchaikovski’s 4th (both likely mentioned here already) are firmly where my tastes lay. To be a good listener, however (and to actually realise what is your ‘home ground’), I’ve heard the essentials of other types of classical as well. I still feel at home with chamber music, and a passionate string quartet never fails to sucker-punch me in the feels. And of course, I’ve heard some essentials of the solo piano - Chopin’s Nocturnes and Beethoven’s sonatas.
|
||
Franz Liszt, however, is a composer I’ve had trouble connecting with - and this enigmatic piano sonata is deep, deep piano territory. It is also one of my absolute favourites.</p>

<p>My favorite streaming service (Primephonic) was bought by Apple, declaring imminent shutdown.

Naturally, I switched to Apple’s platform ready to be all condenscending, when it immidiately suggested one of my favorites - Mozart’s 20th piano concerto (K466, in D Minor) brilliantly performed by Seong-Jin Cho.</p>
