This Man is a Composer || Marvel at His Symphony

[@marijntenvelde8106]

Bach is of the Baroque period, ~1600-1750, and it was only in the Classical period, 1750-1800 that Mozart and Haydn started shaping the symphony genre. It that period they were mostly regarded as entertainment/background music (at social events). Beethoven was the one who shaped the genre into what we view it to be now.

[@markmark8545]

and Vivaldi..??...back end of the 1600's, early 1700's....the world's first rock star perhaps..?? His 4 seasons, apart from its virtuosity ( and an inspiration for Paganini), was perhaps the first cohesive work of 'modern' music, rather than individual tunes, of which Bach was a master.

Classical was 1750 to 1825 wasn't it? And Mozart and Haydn were the other two important classical composers. The Viennese School Giants

Dubov is one of my favorit chess players. Young but still a very artistic player. He have style and is a beast. Love from switzerland.

[@williamgoss4691]

I’m not sure that I have ever seen such an amazing game of Chess. Dubov moves his pieces with such ease, confident and sophistication it’s difficult to keep up with the ever changing web of inter-relationships between his pieces. And the threat of danger passes between at least eight pieces with just a single move of one of them; like the many headed hydra, each piece, almost in turn, threatens the end for Black. Even Black’s capture of major pieces seems to have no effect on White’s March to victory. Astonishingly.
