Gonna listen only to classical music for the next month as an experiment. Who are your favourite classical musicians? (I'm a n00b)
@mitokondriak Debussy, Chopin, Ravel, Faure, but mostly New World Symphony from Dvorak for long listening. All beautiful and nuanced.
@sourpatchlyds @mitokondriak That symphony is one of my favorites
@sourpatchlyds @mitokondriak People who are new to classical music shouldn't listen to decadent romantic era composers first, they should start with the 18th century composers - Mozart, Haydn, Bach, Handel, Vivaldi, Corelli, and then Beethoven and Schubert.
@sourpatchlyds @mitokondriak I forgot about Dvorak, but yes, would recommend!
@sourpatchlyds @mitokondriak Singing Faure's requiem in a couple weeks. 🥰 BTW, gotta add Tchaikovsky to the list. The pas de deux from the nutcracker brings me to tears every time. Most underrated piece from that whole show.
@sourpatchlyds @mitokondriak New world symphony -agree!
@sourpatchlyds @mitokondriak 4th movement knocks my socks off every time
