/wagner/ aka /classical/

There is nothing in this world that is as interesting, majestic and powerful as Wagner. If a thought occupies your mind and its not Wagner, then just be silent. Don't talk. Don't do anything. Think only when Wagner comes to your mind, write only when Wagner is in the sentence, speak only when Wagner is created by your larynx. Nothing. Else. Matters.

This thread is for the discussion of music in the Wagnerian classical tradition, as well as wagnerian instrument-playing.

Hypocrite.

Edvard Grieg spoke more to the norse lifestyle

Wagner taught me how to get into classical by giving me resources including audio courses, textbooks and selections of recordings to help me start to understand and appreciate classical music

No, he spoke norwegian

The craving of the more mature and serious minds of our time for something of intrinsic worth, something durable and substantially sound in contemporary music has been too often disappointed. If one surveys recent music with the aim of discovering not merely interesting experiments and fashionable isms but an accomplished art of monumental aspect, weighty contents, and ethical values, with a philosophy of life as background, if one looks for something comparable to the achievements of Wagner or Brahms, a "great" art that satisfies many demands and appeals alike to the adherents of nineteenth-century traditions

and to the young radicals of our day, one finds it not in the work of Schonberg, Stravinsky, Ravel, or Hindemith, but perhaps in Jean Sibelius.

Still crying?

still projecting?

Make sense or don't bother, for fuck's sake

Wagner is Woody Allen

kill yourself.

rude

Wagner is anti-suicide

Wagner was a intimate friend of Moses

Wagner is a friend of all animals

Wagner was a secret spy for international zionism who fell in love with an anti-christian philosopher and had to destroy him with his brain-melting powers in a tragic twist of fate in order to keep his mission from failing

wagner committed multiple counts of diaper doodoos

Wagner almost killed a man once during a philosophical argument before realising that he was a jew. That man? Karl Marx.

wagner wore women's underwear throughout his adult life

wagner was literally obsessed with Nietzsche's penis

I believe arguing over religion, dogma and ideology is just meaningless at this point. We should concentrate our thoughts out of this mode of thinking (developed by Socrates and Sophists) and instead focus everything on unraveling the psyche. The real battle is between will to power and will to negation. Notice how your brain reacts to a powerful and pleasurable musical piece, now imagine that ephemeral state lasting for an eternity.

I believe

no one cares

so, is this the new iteration of the fabled sisterposter?

Not all shitposts are sister posts, anon

Wagner invented the electric chair, originally as an attempt to quiet down his intolerably genial thoughts down so that he could get some sleep

elaborate.

Presumably that Jazz and Film Score composing is more complex (a higher level) than Classical.

what is level 10?

It took me less than 24 hours to max out piano

Atonal

Anal

there is no such thing as atonality. take your meds.

thank you sister

oh God. the sister poster is back.

You're seeing things and hearing voices

Classical music transcends any mere style like Jazz because it is defined by form and structure.

No. take your meds. things like pic related are obviously atonal.

You're thinking of a different Britten.

that's just a Gii7+#7 - CV7#5 progression overlapping its transposition by a tritone in which the CV7#5 chord is enharmonically changed to an F#V7#5 chord.

*Gii9+#7*

I lied.

Szymanowski is one of the most important, unique, fascinating, and overlooked composers of the first third of the 20th century. Please take a moment to appreaciate Szymanowski.
