You could say the same about the Rite of Spring. There are plenty of flashy instrumental bursts, but all the themes are simple, most are diatonic and harmonically the block-structured sections are built on pedal-point ostinati. This doesn't take away from its revolutionary character, though.

@@Snardbafulatorthis isn't classical in any sense. In narrow sense, it's not a period before romanticism. In the broad sense, classical music is academic music, created by trained composers who follow some canons and traditions. In the third sense, "classics" can be some very influential or important compositions of any style or genre, for example, the classics of popmusic of 90s. You don't call Jazz classical music. And you don't call electronic music as classical. And the same way modernist experimentalism of Ornstein is completely a different trend in music, but not in classical music.

People generally dislike Boulezs piano works, but he doesn't come close to this on sheer discordant and unrelenting aggression. Oh la la!
@commentingchannel9776Ай бұрын
Speaking as someone who absolutely LOVES Boulez, this piece is far easier to get a proper hold of since you can latch onto very well-defined rhythmic patterns and even some motivic elements. Boulez comes off to me as mostly textural in nature; it is rare that something other than a specific gesture is consistently present throughout an entire work of his.

Except there is a structure and there are themes, of sorts. It's not accidental (though there are plenty of accidentals in the score -- OK, bad pun). It does seem to have only one thing to say, though. I know there are plenty of sweetness and light piano pieces that also have only one thing to say. Another commenter described it as "unrelenting aggression." Yes, unrelenting. One can ask if unmitigated savagery is all that interesting. King Kong, with his affection for Ann Darrow mitigating his anger at being captured and his savagery is much more interesting than the original Godzilla, who seems to revel in destruction. I suggest that if you want to force James Bond to give you information, though, you put him in a cell with this playing in a loop. Of course, you do have to reckon with Q having given him a pill to make him temporarily deaf.
