What do you listen to while you read?
the wind, the birds, dogs barking, cars passing by
Music from whichever country the book is set in or from the author's country of origin
Also Chopin
Thats an interesting idea
If find Bohren & Der Club of Gore to be very relaxing while reading.
it's not
Beethoven while reading Tolstoy
Mozart while reading Kierkegaard
Schumann while reading Hölderlin
Wagner while reading Schopenhauer
ah hello fellow gentlemen (sips wine) i see you are men of culture too
nothing finer than imbibing a deep cantata from one of the renaissance Maestros so i can double dip on my culture, as i effortlessly appreciate both an Epic classical masterpiece that most normies wouldn't understand at the same time as i engage with a work of Literature, each artform magnifying and enhancing the other and i'm not at all using art music as fucking wallpaper like a gigantic fucking pleb who understands nothing except cultural signifiers
Music is not to be analyzed, but to be yielded to. Read Birth of Tragedy.

Came here to post this, get fucked pseuds
What does tact signify?
should i also listen to pachelbel's canon as i read it to enhance the experience?

So you think that people shouldnt listen to it because they might be pseuds
That makes no sense
Also the art you love has almost always been the result of commission work

Sounds are distractions. I even try to avoid sub-vocalizing because of that. But music? Who the fuck listens to music when reading? If anything, the sounds of nature or of the people shuffling around the house are my only soundtrack
no, i think people should listen to it
I perform my own music while I read
Not him but it is

On a related note I wonder what would go with

at ambiently low volume? TKK was always lounge in its way, and though I cant listen while reading, I almost always start with music to do highly subjective writing. Speedy-nutty or loftily esoteric, it all depends on the sound's power to make and remind moods.
