Aphex is our Mozart. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
are you high on paint? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
I mean it's 170 CD boxset ! That's incredible ! Nobody can handle this ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It even beats the Merzbox. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
who would want to handle it? mozart is boring. i'd rather have 50 merzbow cds. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
some Mozart now and then can be fine, but why would you want 170 discs of it, even if it's cheap? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
how does that work then? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the only reason i can think of why someone would want this is to impress a fifty-year-old music professor. do you want to impress your teacher, combo? ...or as a doorstop. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I won't buy this, are you nuts ? I can't even listen to a whole 5 CD boxset because i want to listen to each carefully ! But I don't find Mozart boring. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cd cases always come in handy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No music lover will buy this, only people who know nothing about it but think Mozart is hype and guess it's a bargain ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you think it's a bargain. |
||||||||
|
|

i can't read french, but i can't see a name of the performing orchestra on that page.. they're probably shite recordings. and mozart is not boring music. it's simple, but beautiful through its ingenuity. you especially realise this after sitting down and listening to some concerti while studying their scores. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It seems that all the comments say the recordings are very good. =S |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if is the same thing, i've never heard of either of the performers: # Performer: Christian Ivaldi, Noël Lee but it seems as if this product only has 2 cds.. and none are pieces for more than two performers. so it's unlikely to be the same. can you tell me who the performers are on the cd box-set that you linked to? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Common ! My boxset has 85 times more CDs that yours. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you especially realise this after sitting down and listening to some concerti while studying their scores. like i said, boring. |
||||||||

ur weird! i <3 u |

i know someone who offered this to someone at christmas... the orchestra and stuff is listed on every cd on the back, every cd is in a paper slipcase and they have different colours, organized so it makes some kind of rainbow inside the box. the latest cd is a cd-rom of liner notes. ...actually it made me think of a , beause of all those little thin coloured paper bags. |

"i'd rather have 50 merzbow cds." > me too. |
||||||||
|

I'm happy with my handful of Mozart comps and concise collections, but dang, I almost want to get this just for the novelty. And it might make a good battering ram. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have it already, not as a big box but in sets of 5 to 10 cds. It's not that many really, concidering what people download every day... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i don't download that much... i have a 40gb hard drive anyway |

DVDs are quite cheap for storage: +/- 440 gigabyte(100 DVDs) for 35 euros. thats enough to store about 1200 albums lossless or 3600 albums as good mp3... |

IT'S THE MOZART EFFECT! BE WARNED! |

Yeah man, that's pretty posh. Classy. |
||||||||
|

wow. that makes my head hurt. quit it : ( |

now it's gone :( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cheap? id say thats quite expensive. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i know someone who bought this and/or a bach one some midlife crisis kinda thing i guess |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
some classical music is fine, but most of the "old" stuff like mozart does just bore me. apparently Stravinsky wrote experimental aphex-style classical in 18th century rusia, but i havent heard any. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, but goshdarnit, mozart was a richard d james of his time well maybe even with pr craziness but as ive come to understand from people who've studied it he was groundbreaking with compositions. this is the whole idea behind classical or "academic" music: that it explorers new grounds. that's why you won't be added to the canon when you make music like mozart these days. i don't like mozart music because i don't, too happy and sweet mostly and otherwise just not my style (i prefer haydn of the wiener classics, maybe because he's most unknown, im not without blame). but i have been stupid enough to not like mozart because he's so popular. im pretty sure amadeus wouldnt have liked his oeuvre to be raped into 10 hits on classical fm either |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh and the outbreak at the premiere of stravisky's sacre was prolly staged so he's the twin alright (but alot of the theme's in that piece are ripped from russian folk songs and richard would never do that!) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'd rather have a Rachmaninov one. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
amadeus loved analogue and pissed on his online fanbase too actually |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i agree |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
respekt to that. if you ever need to be hit up with some quality rachmaninov, give us a shout, i have some really decent recordings.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
rachmaninov was like the vsnares of his days because the critics had grown pretty weary of romantic music around the turn of the century |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
HE WAS KEEPING THE DREAM ALIVE |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
amen to that |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
writing music expressing the way he felt instead of succumbing to the critics big up yaself sergei |

i meant to say that that is the encapsulation of romanticism.. but err. yeah. fucked that up royally didn't i |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'll be hitting you up later most likely then mate. I did have some recording of a recital he did but, for obvious reasons, the sound quality was awful. I love his music though :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like that prelude with ragtime influences (maybe i made that influence up) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
me too |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
excellent.it'll remind me to get that audio conversion program from you too :) and yeah i think i have that same recording - rachmaninov plays rachmaninov is it? it has all of the variations on a theme by paganini and one of the piano concerti i think, but not only does my recording have bad sound quality (naturally), the cd it was ripped from was obviously scratched to fuck as well. gay! |

you sure you're not thinking of george gershwin? rhapsody in blue? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
What I like most about mozart is the little "dialogues" in the music. Just listen to the first movement of Sinfonia Concertante for Violin and Viola, KV 364. |
