Wtf m8. You stopped before Wagner. Who we have the graces of being able to read his opinions on kikes and their lack of soul being the reason they cannot create art.

Wagner gets a lot of criticism from jews for his observations, which only strengthens his argument that jews are parasites who cannot create. It's fantastic that one of his greatest works, "Die Meistersinger", features Beckmesser, a jew who is a barely competent singer. It's almost like Wagner knew what he was talking about. For those not familiar with either this great work or the character, here's an article with a lot of jewing about "muh antisemitisms".

Richard Wagner deserves your attention and respect.

Vivaldi is so underrated!

[ - ] Ragnar 2 points 1 monthMay 4, 2025 00:16:09 ago (+2/-0)

Not entirely true.
Vivaldi was a contemporary of Bach and even Handel.
If anything, Bach is the godfather of baroque and inspired classical and later the romantic era.

Bach über alles

Correct, and Bach admired both Vivaldi and Handel. He made two attempts to meet Handel in his lifetime, but events never allowed it to happen. It would have been an incredible meeting of minds.

Bach über alles
Totally with you on that account. I like to think he's in paradise amusing himself by thinking about people futilely trying to play his work as well as he could. He had a mastery of style and technique no one ever matched. It's a shame the fugue went out of style shortly after his death, but it was inevitable because it's so complex, too few people can truly understand it. His counterpoint was extremely accessible, making his "easier" works, like the Brandenburg Concerti, very pleasant and memorable.

Exactly! I have always been really into Bach despite not being musically talented myself.

Don't get me wrong, Handel wrote majestic music as well, and Mozart, Vivaldi, Wagner, Beethoven all had extraordinary pieces. But Bach created surreal magic in his music.

Never heard any Bach that I didn't like.
While I appreciate others' works, Bach's moves me at a deeper level.
Very hard to explain in words, it's an experience.

Some say it's because his music is mathematical and the universe is mathematical so the vibrations are harmonious with external and internal energies which moves us so.

I don't know, maybe, but all I know is he was a genius beyond par

I don't know how to explain it or even describe the quality that I find so ethereally beautiful in Bach's work, but the closest I can come is "symmetry". There is tremendous balance in his work, which finds is greatest expression in his counterpoint. Every voice, every theme, every melody works in close cooperation with every other part. One part never overwhelms or dominates the rest, even in his concerti that feature a particular instrument such as a violin or harpsichord. His music is as balanced as a clock, with nothing superfluous or out of place.

You know you might be right about symmetry which I worded harmony but symmetry is closer to describing his work. But no matter what word we choose we can only approximate the feeling that's indescribable. If one needed an example of European genius, Bach is one of the finest

There’s a lot of 19th century late romantic music that sounds “jazzy” - and made by the likes of Edward MacDowell. Then you have the jewish music critics who downplayed his contributions to music after the niggers became more popular using his and others’ ideas (because a monkey that can play piano is actually pretty incredible!) - with one Gilbert Chase, an American music historian and critic, writing in the 1950s, "When Edward MacDowell appeared on the scene, many Americans felt that here at last was 'the great American composer' awaited by the nation. But MacDowell was not a great composer. At his best he was a gifted miniaturist with an individual manner. Creatively, he looked toward the past, not toward the future. He does not mark the beginning of a new epoch in American music, but the closing of a fading era, the fin de siecle decline of the genteel tradition which had dominated American art since the days of Hopkinson and Hewitt". In the 1970s, another kike John Gillespie reaffirmed Chase's opinion by writing that MacDowell's place in time "accounts for his decreasing popularity; he does not belong with the great Romantics, Schumann and Brahms, but neither can be regarded as a precursor of twentieth century music". Other critics, such as Virgil Thomson, maintained that MacDowell's legacy would be reconsidered and regain a place proper to its significance in the history of American music - ie niggers didn’t create anything special.

Mozart was the mother fucking man and all those other pussies knew it.

I have to disagree. He wrote some good works, but the fucking scales irritate me to no end. You should read Glenn Gould's criticism of Mozart. I think he was spot on.
