On the topic of last thread with romantic vs classical. Is there any classical period composer that does extended development besides Beethoven? I was listening to Mahler's 4th recently and it impresses me how much mileage Mahler gets out of a very traditional sonata-allegro structure in the first movement.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41b0Jh8xRhk
My main issue with a lot of classical period music is that it feels like it builds up a lot towards the development section, and then the development is like 16 bars or something. I guess they weren't really focusing on development back then as much as they would in later periods, but development is one of my favorite aspects of classical music as a whole. Is there any composer from that period that had more meaty development sections present?
Note that it doesn't have to be 10+ minutes, a 7 minute movement with a 2 minute exposition, 4 minute development and 2 minute recapitulation is perfectly find and interesting too

>>127178480>Transhauser overturePEAK
>>127178735>>127178742> want the most famous or renowned works out there covering everything if possible.Depends on what you specifically want. If you are mainly interested in the symphony, I'd say listen first to some of Haydn's later symphonies, then Mozart's last 4, then Beethoven's entire output of symphonies, then Brahms.

I think the logical conclusion here is to not wate our times with music before late Beethoven and after death of Wagner. Maybe make exceptions for Bach and Scriabin, but that's it. And micro-composers (as I like to call them) like Mozart and Mahler for a snack every now and then (but not too much, lacks nutrients).

I put on a set of the symphonies for listen to one and next thing I know I've ended up listening to three or four or five because it's so good and flies by. Instead of some composers who make me feel like changing to something else when I've had them playing for too long, with Sibelius I just wanna keep listening to more and more, until I realize I've listened to entire set worth of music in one or two days.

>>127182037 Alwyn's Harp Concerto.
Gloomier harp piece than usual. I think I was in a much better mood than would be recommended to properly enjoy this melancholic, brooding piece. Sometimes I felt harp was overshadowed by the orchestra, not sure if it was authorโs intention or not. 3>4>1>2. Also, why four parts in a concerto?
Adagio: nice harp entrance solo.
Listened two times in quick succession.
>>127182072 Symphony No. 8 in C Minor, WAB 108 (Remastered): I. Allegro moderato
Just one movement? Ok. I can do that. Damn this guy really likes his tubas and horns! Also, a very down, oppressive movement. Is the end supposed to be dying heartbeat?
Started the whole symphony. 1:15??? Who Bruckner thinks he is? Mahler?
Really like the end of the second movement. Overall liked the second movement more than the first. Adagio: Would I have almost half an hour of peace and quiet? Listening to Adagio now.
>>127182561Uppity pup thinks he grasps the Atman who am the dark God? Hah! You're fortunate that your feeble "brain" can even interpret Lord Scriabin's spellcraft as "music" at all. Little does the whelp know that his organs are melting as he speaks, unable to withstand the profane sonorities of Pater Scriabin's tenebrous craft...
>>127181770LOLOLOL! An eyesore like you would die of a gay orgasm from simply "listening" to Scriabin were it not for the obscurity of your own primitive consciousness protecting you from such effects.

>>127185339>wanted to know hear /classical/'s opinionHuh. Yeah, that *is* pretty dumb
>>127185339I like Hindemith for his free use of the chromatic scale in counterpoint which has been described by Glenn Gould as quasi-tonal. Similarly, Hindemith's all-encompassing system of harmony solved the then centuries old paradox of "non-harmonic tones".

>>127185660bait should be believable
>>127185677What about his symphonic/chamber music? Would you say his music has had staying power? I mean regardless of popularity, would you say the music he made was notable/memorable/interesting/unique enough to be worthy of remembrance, like a number of his contemporaries (Bartรณk, Milhaud, Messiaen, etc)? Is he more than a product of his time? Is his neoclassicism even as partially as devoid of identity and personality as Stravinsky's?
>>127185702Dogma should be defensible
Ritual should be repeatable

What fulfils these conditions in the decadent modern world in which "God is Dead"? Answer: the holy poetry of Richard Wagner and his "Sacred Festival Stage Play" which transforms and supersedes religion.

>>127185857I gather that he's important, and I realise (my having to ask about him being evidence enough) that he's relatively obscure, which is why I'm asking for personal appreciations/impressions of his music and how it compares to his contemporaries. Just giving a kind of back-cover blurb won't cut it. Anyway sorry, at least someone's taking the time to reply.
