Jus wanted to know how many of you lot enjoy listening to (or playing) western european classical music (pre 20th century) and if so who are your fav composers? This question extends to 20th century Jazz as well --> ornette coleman and the free jazz movement in particular (any heard of James Carter?)... |

I like Tallis, my favourite piece of music of all time is by Thomas Tallis, and 16th/17th century choral works by the likes of Lassus. Also Purcell. And anyone who isn't moved by Fauré's Reqiuem is clearly dead from the ears down. |

I'm all about some jazz. I love playing it. |

Oh... Faure's work is exquisite. My 'favourite' composer is probably still Vivaldi (I thought it was a phase, but it's going on 5 years now). I'm very partial to early baroque, and mid-romantic. As far as jazz, I used to have a thing for John Coltrane, but saxophones are starting to get to me. Jazz is so much more moving to create than to listen to - it's more conversational than anything else I've done. |

As most of you probably know, I love classical music too. I believe it to be the highest and most hard-to-produce form of music (but that's just my opinion) |

I like Satie and Bach. And Mingus for jazz. |
||||||||

i think classical -- done correctly -- is one of the most hardest musics to do. you take something like the 4 hour Messiah peice and its just insane. INSANE! |

Satie! Fuck yes. He could do more with less. He singlehandedly invented modern lyrical minimalism (as opposed to modern I got no ideas and I'll call it art minimalism). IMHO. and listen to the Gnossiennes and Je Te Veux. Lovely stuff. I'm learning to stumble through the gnossiennes, so far just the first one cos it's simple. :-) |

xceque :: i'm a big fan of early choral music as well - not often you find people dropping Lassus into a conversation. Victoria, Gibbons, a contemporary of Bach called JR Ahle who's wicked - he's a bit obscure but see if you can find any - and Monteverdi - vespers being my favourite track. outside of that, i'm also a big fan of bartok, stravinsky, vaughan williams, rachmaninov and anything with emotion. here's to unpretentious views on classical music. nice one. |
