Making this thread in case someone wants to post something because I'm going to fucking sleep. Thread is probably going to die. Oh well. Also, first for petzold
not very good at all, but this is a VERY hard piece to play well. The bach partitas are like the final boss of solo violin music. There is more complex music out there, but none that requires such emotional control as well as mastery and technical ability.
You're a damn good violinist to be able to play this at all though.

Yea Forums I'm getting into this classical music. I wanted to find some solo piano or duo with violin stuff. Not those orchestras with 30 different people. I liked chopin nocturnes, exactly the type of stuff I was looking for. What term do I need? I tried the chopin piano concerto but it seems that's not what I need, it's too 'grand' if that makes sense.
Julian Torres
you're looking for chamber music. start with solo piano stuff, check out violin or cello sonatas, then move towards string and piano quartets/quintets.

>sonata Sonata is the term for just 1 or 2 instruments? Are nocturnes sonatas too?
Logan Reyes
A nocturne is a pretty flimsy, romantic definition. It just means that the piece is supposed to invoke a nocturnal feeling, whereas a sonata is a more structured, concise term.
I dont know if this is too heavy for you, if you're just getting into classical, but this video explains sonata form really well :) youtube.com/watch?v=2npBcyrXHO8
A lot of romantic-era pieces have pretty vague titles attached to them, f.ex. nocturne, prelude, arabesque, so sometimes it can be hard trying to find pieces that are alike from the title.
If you like Chopin nocturnes, I suggest you listen to Debussy's solo piano works. He's a GOAT composer, but very accessible by people not used to classical, since he's been a huge influence in modern film music.
If anything can be called a meme instrument it's that, some weird hybrid that only became popular because some rich dude played it and his pet composer wrote endless amounts to keep his master happy.
>The original score was composed by Hans Erdmann to be performed by an orchestra during the projection. It is also said that the original music was recorded during a screening of the film. However, most of the score has been lost, and what remains is only a reconstitution of the score as it was played in 1922. Thus, throughout the history of Nosferatu screenings, many composers and musicians have written or improvised their own soundtrack to accompany the film. For example, James Bernard, composer of the soundtracks of many Hammer horror films in the late 1950s and 1960s, has written a score for a reissue.
Although wikipedia may say otherwise, there's no such thing either as a "lydian mode".
It is a phrygian mode in G major, like if you started your C major scale on E.

Listening to Baroque has greatly improved my social, financial, and sex life. After just 2 weeks of actively listening to it daily, I went from being a hopeless virgin to fucking multiple women daily. My penis has grown 4 inches and I’ve grown from 5’8” to 6’1”. I have almost doubled my muscle mass and I went from barely able to keep a stream of cum to being able to bust massive loads on women. Life is the greatest and I owe it all to Baroque.
I'm a sucker for meme instruments I guess, especially baroque. I'm also just a fan of bowed instruments with resonant strings in general, since they remind me of scandinavian folk music. youtube.com/watch?v=r5zYan2JZ_o youtube.com/watch?v=p7WKhsKWcHc

This symphony has also an unfortunate past as it was one of Adolf Hitler's favorite works. According to Frederic Spotts' Hitler and the Power of Aesthetics, Adolf Hitler compared this symphony favorably with Beethoven's Ninth Symphony. When he consecrated a bust of Bruckner at Regensburg's Walhalla temple in 1937, the Adagio from the Seventh was played as Hitler stood in quiet admiration. A recording of the Adagio was played before the official radio announcement of the German defeat at Stalingrad on 31 January 1943 and before Reich President Karl Dönitz announced Hitler's death on Radio Berlin on 1 May 1945; a recording by Furtwängler was used.

an absolutely unattractive woman, 26, living in nyc, not good at the oboe, nobody even says shes good. but she gets scouted by this other aging slut who plays the cello who says shes good. so she auditions mozart, and this tripped out mexican manlet decides she plays with pure fire (the shows trope is "the blood") so he proceeds to groom this young woman and allows her to enter the gynocentric world of the ny orchestra, her lifelong dream omg
proceed with women occupying all positions of power slutting around with rich brown boys. fuck with all interpersonal dynamics (its an amazon show) and surround it with expressions of ecstasy and some all-right classical repertoire almost always performed poorly
the show elevates musical mediocrity at the expense of community found in both erotic and familial love. i think the only true message here is its not how well you play but who you know and, most importantly, how well you fit in
it does nail some of the tropes surrounding musicians but it does so only to give itself something real to project its psychological programming via ie racemixing and femininity and homosexuality
it has a few honest moments and some good cinematography but its still not worth. also their two pianists, one is an eccentric andreas schiff as played by wallace shawn, which is funny, and the other is a cameo by LANG LANG
i often found myself laughing at how terrible the writing is, maybe thats why i watched it all. im not sure
You’re rushing but that’s to be expected and it’s not terminal; you’re just struggling a bit. Some of these double stops want to ring a little bit longer I think. You need to mold everything together into a unit. The other user is right though I’ll say slow way the fuck down on your practice. So slow you can’t even recognize what’s being played. But this is a piece you’ll spend the rest of your life interpreting Sounds pretty good though, you’re definitely almost actually playing it which is an accomplishment in itself. I think it’s just out of your performance range right now but give it a few months of slow deliberate practice and I think you’ll have what’s given on the page down pat
Listen to more recordings and really study the interpretations as that’s going to be where the real work is. But don’t forget to let yourself go when you’re performing. Don’t think about anything but the music etc. have you watched the yehudi Menuhin violin how to’s? Some of those exercises might be beneficial for your hand flexibility. You sound tight on the transitions
I got you. I'm dating a cute Iranian - aint no classical music for that.
Daniel Clark
>an eccentric andreas schiff as played by wallace shawn [citation needed] There's no indication that he's supposed to be Schiff
The show is trash, but it does sometimes have contemporary classical compositions and composers on it (Muhly, Shaw, Ades(iirc), etc.), so props to it for that.
