- How has composition evolved since the early days of classical music, and where is it now? Meet Sofia Ouyang, an emerging 21st century composer and undergraduate senior studying composition at Columbia University. In this episode we'll hear her thoughts surrounding her philosophies behind composition, and where she places herself in this ever-evolving art practice.

It's so cool to see you conversing with a fellow Columbia / Juilliard alumna! I love the vibe as well as the deep-dive into the interactions between music, philosophy and aesthetics
Wow, I had no idea Tiffany studied philosophy.
Nice to see her expanding her involvement with classical music with interviews such as this.
You found a kindred spirit! Pleasure to meet you Sofia, found your YT channel will definitely listen to the pieces that you posted.
Great interview. Really enjoyable to listen to. I guess there is much more resonance with speaking to someone with a similar educational background.
I particularly enjoyed "As if sharing a joke with nothingness" and "Insects"!
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it as much as I did :)
Very lovely chat indeed! I enjoyed the thoughts on how a piece can evolve as people interact with it. While I get the desire to not limit the perception of art by explaining it, I personally have understood much more about it, and enjoyed it more, from listening to discussions by nice people such as both of you. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, and good luck in your future endeavors.
Sofia - an impressive young lady; very mature, quite deep, brings out some very good points. Thank you, Tiffany! (And I am particularly impressed by Sofia's and Tiffany's command of English language, as I am familiar a little with the deep intrinsic barrier between Sinitic and Indo-European languages; the barrier I have been trying to traverse in the opposite direction.) One advice to Sofia (we old people love to give advice): (i) Listen to the voices, the whispers from your heart, (ii) Throw aside all cliches, Western and Eastern, that constrain you and go ahead boldly!
Good to have Tiffany at the 'helm' to navigate us through a potentially frightening depth of emotional intellectuality associated with music composition and philosophy. Interesting to learn more.

I used to know the composers Smirnov and Firsova in London (and their concert pianist daughter - who is almost as good as Tiffany). We went to a Rostropovich concert once (he conducted Tchaikovsky and Rostropovich). They had written pieces for him. I find their music too 'avant-garde'. Interesting, though. My channel has a lot of my utter rubbish 'compositions'. They are all derivative and worthless. Most of them are dedicated to Tiffany. She is a 21st century fox. But my teacher teaches at Kissin's old school. And she comes from both the Beethoven and Tchaikovsky line. I also studied philosophy (at Kings College) and when I was studying Russian at SSEES, Derrida came to SOAS and gave a lecture. He deconstructed all the time, however.
nice

@ivan-astral why not do what you can locally before supporting a system you didn't make God bless
Life can be difficult sometimes, but remembering we're all in this together can help us feel more connected to those around us with classical music. By all playing our part to lend a helping hand to those in need, we can feel more like an active part of "OUR GROUP". Giving, not only money, can be a way of expressing gratitude or instilling gratitude, whether you are on the giving or receiving end; this gratitude is essential to happiness, health and social bonds. For example, when you do express gratitude in words and actions, you boost other people's positivity as well as your own. God bless 🙏
@@ivan-astraldefaming without presenting any proof sounds like an irrational belief.
No wonder not a lot of people would like to start any community project.
I wish we could be more respectful even in disagreement.
@@ivan-astral but can you basically answer what do you want to expose?? Proof?

There's something terribly wrong with your audio! Frequently there is a crashing noise or whooshing that is frighteningly startling. Please see what you can to to make it stop. Because if you can't, I'll not watch your videos any more. Thank you.
room seems to need better soundproofing
Why is this joke of a video showing up as a recommendation for me? Literally most boring and pointless video
Cry about it.
