    I'm currently doing an online course exploring Beethoven's piano sonatas and the lecturer has just pointed out the following: "Beethoven is [...] the first composer to be attracted to the dramatic possibilities that come from mere repetition. I was shocked when a composer told me that he thought of the second movement of the seventh symphony as being the first ever work of minimalism."

      It's not the first minimalist work. It's far too melodic...especially with the counter melodies. The first minimalist piece of music was the first movement of the 5th. The entire movement exists on the repetition of a single, 4-note motif that can't, by itself, be considered a melody. In the parlance of todays music, it's based entirely on "riffs".

    Once I had left the radio on when I went to bed, it was tuned to a classical music station. It was uneventful until I started dreaming of golden fields and wildly fantasist structures, and I was being pulled along as if in a ride. I couldn't see myself and I don't think I even was "me" in that dream; there was no plot or characters, it was just... like a bird flying in the airs with not a single care in the world, and throughout that dream I heard this song.
    When I woke up I heard the end of the song on radio and I felt well-rested. Music's a hell of a thing.

    • @taraemcintyre
      @taraemcintyre Год назад +2

      I so agree. The heartbreak is palpable. But I find a redemption in it too. Tentative, maybe; reached for, certainly. A sweet recall of what once was, or a longing for what could have been. Or both. It closes with a nod to neither heartbreak nor redemption. It's a settling in (especially organized graphically, in this vid; you can see it), an exhale. Acceptance, perhaps.

      Hari Seldon Depends on which rap music, some it will be a part of classic American music like Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five and Gil Scott Heron. The thing is much of the mass-produced music today regardless of genre is made for quick bucks and not for lasting power. Add to this the Cambrian explosion of modern music styles and outlets such that the even best artists only get clique audiences. Unlike previous eras there really is no "mainstream" like radio or concert halls that indoctrinates "proper" music. Amazing artists that are just as great as Beethoven like Frank Zappa, Coltrane, Thelonious Monk, Kraftwerk, Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, Autechre, and others fade in a generation. We are currently a very ephemeral culture.

Their understanding allows them to appreciate these types of pieces more, but causes them to be exhausted. It's all about perspective.

    Thank you smalin for the graphics, I finally realize now, this is pure genius in motion. I think I will attempt to learn to read/write musical notation properly this time around, begin to write songs once again myself, and attempt to rival this perfectionate beauty, at least in my spare time perhaps. But yes, it is a consideration I intend to venture upon. That said, Beethoven, though deaf, will always be the greatest composer to ever grace us. such beauty... such love in art. Aloha!

      It's the biggest problem with the human mind. We cannot describe anything we feel to another person without using coarse analogies and metaphors. I guess we just have to assume everybody feels everything the same way.

    Blah blah version: The graphic displaying the way the different instruments diverge and come together is really informative for people like me who don't read music yet appreciate how the disparate notes are formed to create a whole experience. For me the way one tune is played 'in parallel' to another creating a whole is just wonderful. I cannot get enough of music, be it classical, progressive rock or even pop, where many things are going on at the same time yet one part seems simply to enhance another. This man was a master at times and this section is a master at his best.
    Short version: Fck me that's beautiful. The gfx is just great, thanks.

    • @jonathanmacpac

      I like the slower tempo, probably because that is the way I was introduced to this movement as a child. It still has plenty of momentum, and feels allegretto, even if technically slower.

    Beautifully done. Really an enhancement of the experience for what it truly my favorite piece of music. Bravo and Thank You. I also love that you're using a version of this piece that is played in the perfect tempo. Having seen the piece done live a few times, sometimes it seems like it gets performed a tad quick for best effect IMO.

  • @krustykraken9331

    I think I can see why this version is worse.
    The song is ~10% too slow, the notes need to be held longer so it's not an abrupt pause and play when the notes change, and the pitch is off. Like at 2:51 the violin in the back is supposed to sound like something crying out, but the pitch and volume are too low, and the sound is supposed to vibrate like it's losing control a little bit, but it doesn't.

    Beethoven en su mejor expresión! Pero yo nunca la he considerado una marcha fúnebre. El Adagio de la Heroica sí que es fúnebre.
    Esta séptima sinfonía la llamó Wagner "Apoteosis de la Danza" por ese carácter tan particular de sus movimientos. Sobre todo el Allegro inicial y el sonoro final.
