for me, i like baroque (as well as medieval) and modern the most for their complexity (i must admit that classical and romantic are good if u don't wanna use ur brain for a while). i rlly recommend you to dig into schubert not only orchestral but also his lieders.

@francoismagne58633 ай бұрын
My classical music taste is highly specialized, heavily favoring romantic and post-romantic composers, so for me these questions ranged from 'obvious' to 'very hard'. I also used a bit of educated guessing: I identified Shostakovitch thanks to catching a Russian word, and Elgar because it was too vulgar to be Britten. THanks a lot anyway!

Got them all, but I've been at it 70+ years. As for who's conducting the Mahler, don't care. Difficult ones? The Respighi is identfiable by the orchestration (not a piece I listen to) and the Elgar by small stylistic licks amidst the melodic nullity. Again, not a fan. Thanks for reminding me of the Bartok, a snazzy piece II haven't heard in years.

The 20th century composers has a more distinctive style comparing to the 19th century that's why it's always difficult in distinguishing the 19th century composers like you can easily distinguish bartok from britten and Shostakovich as they have a very distinctive style in fact.

It can be found on Misha Horenstein's (Jascha's nephew) on KZbin channel. Figure 56 of the last movement is slowed to about half tempo for emphasis, as Horenstein saw tat part as the true climax of the work. Triumphal indeed.

The ones I knew within the first measure were the obvious ones. Revelle, Rossini and Gershwin come to mind. Tougher was the symphonic works. Shubert sounds very much like Beethoven I am familiar with all the Brhams, but still missed the answers. Not up on my Mahlar. knew the Rachmaninoff but thought it his first. The Vivaldi did not sound like a typical piece. and on the other hand, Other Debussy pieces could have been more challenging.
@angowong14073 ай бұрын
Yes I must admit both Schubert and Beethoven love to use subitos 😂 but Beethoven has a relatively "muddy" bassline and loves to use fugal structure in his late works (but Schubert won't). Schubert has a wider spacing and likes to use strings-woodwind Q&A (use more Horns in his "Unfinished" and "The Great")
