bach wrote for the piano chud

I hate Bach, bros. The othe user was right:
>I'm just not into that cheesy melancholy schtick Bach has
Why the fuck would you listen to Bach when you could be listening to actually good, not cheesy shitposters like Petzold, Haydn and the like.

Richard D. James is the reincarnation of J. S. Bach. RDJ should be hailed as so much better than his contemporaries. His Soundcloud just proved that, unlike his contemporaries, his life mission has just been to craft thousands of solid contrapuntal compositions in a very bachian way, each one inventive, unique and full of emotion. Killer sense of melody also like you said. I agree on your pop music stance but only as so far as there is a dedicated portion of his discography that aims to, and perfects, the pop genre, with releases such as CtD and Windowlicker. He does however have other sides to him, tracks like this

are about as close as we have to a bach concerto format in modern electronic music. Seriously, I have taken the midi and replaced the pads with strings and flutes and the fast staccato synth with Harpsichord and it sounds really good.

THAT Johann Sebastian Bach was an admirer of the clavichord is evident not only from the fact of his having written for it some of his finest compositions but also from certain recorded observations. He appreciated it more highly than the harpsichord, on account of its capability of yielding to the intentions of the performer, and of permitting various modifications of expression to be obtained merely by the touch. He always preferred to play on the clavichord; the harpsichord was for him too soulless, and the pianoforte too coarse. This statement is to be found in the biographical sketch of J. S. Bach written by J. N. Forkel, who was personally acquainted with the two eldest sons of the great composer, Friedemann and Emanuel.
When, in the year 1726, Gottfried Silbermann submitted to J. S. Bach for examination a pianoforte which Silbermann had made, Bach declared that his clavichord was decidedly superior to it in regard to expression and delicacy of touch. No doubt he was right; and his candid criticism, which is said to have offended Silbermann, may perhaps evidence the imperfection of the pianoforte at that time rather than the excellence of the clavichord. It must be remembered that the pianoforte was then a new invention still in its infancy, dating from about the year 1711 when it suggested itself to Cristofori to substitute hammers for the jacks and crowquills in the clavicembalo. Moreover, it is recorded that in 1741, about twenty years after his first attempt, Silbermann succeeded in constructing two pianofortes which obtained the approval of J. S. Bach.

you can tell a lot of these were decided by the brainless scaruffi drones

what trite shite that is op

which ones?

varese, messiaen, boulez, stockhausen, schnittke, ferneyhough, probably others

oh ok, so just the most famous composers of the century

Boulez is good

can I get recs for shit as good as Beethoven's late quartets and sonatas. Been listening to tons of shit lately but nothing tops them

i looked at scaruffi's website and couldn't even find a couple of them on it, that particular stockhausen and hte ferneyhough. he only has one thing by ferneyhough in fact. i think you're full of shit

ferneyUGH

doesn't need to be on scruffy's page, it's just the typical shit clt and scaruffi drones listen to

CLT didn't listen to any of that.

hmm yes i also reflexively associate the most famous composers of the last century with random obscure internet personalities

terrible terrible performances, just awful

hmm yes i am also trans

if you want to play blind to the fact that the avant clique of Yea Forums listens to the same 7 composers, fine by me

i know i am part of them

Has any composer wielded a sharp IV well outside of jazz?

no jazz is the first genre of music to realize that tritones are dissonant, those niggers sure are snazzy!

Bach.
youtu.be/gfrI046SU3E?t=83

bach probably actually raising the root of the 4 half step gives V/V

The Velvet Underground

Pieces for this feel?

>Fauré, Scriabin, Rachmaninoff, Beethoven, Poulenc, Schumann

Eine Kleine Nachtmusik

If those composers are cheesy, Chopin is a stuffed crust pizza

Well yeah he's worse than them I agree
