Bravo! Aside from performance, perhaps my favorite music courses at University were Music Literature classes. This video took me back 40 years. Though Music Lit classes were typically taught early in the morning, I had no problem finding the motivation to crawl out of bed and make my way to class. Thanks so much for providing this wonderful video.

[@MusicMattersGB]

It’s a pleasure Carl. Yes, this stuff is fascinating.

[@TinyEpics]

Nice! I live in Mannheim and my street is named Cannabichstrasse after the composer Christian Cannabich. Thanks for sharing. Viele Grüße aus Deutschland!

[@MusicMattersGB]

That’s great

[@michaeltaylor7407]

I just found your channel and it is great. Mannheim has the official title "City of Music" from the UNESCO. You can study classical music or Jazz at the Musikhochschule or you can study Pop-Music or Music Business at the Pop-Academy (both are run by the federal state of Baden-Württemberg, and that means no fees for your studies). In the region there is a great Jazz Scene and in October/November a big festival called Enjoy Jazz with about 70 concerts with international artists, in Mannheim and the "neighbourhood". In Mannheim is also the National Theater with its own orchestra. There is a great Jazz Club, Ella & Louis, they have a YT Channel. As a guitarist I would like to mention the guitar summit in september, that is Europes biggest guitar show with all the big names in the industry of acoustic and electric guitars, amps, effects. There is also some good church music in Mannheim, the Christus-Kirche has a wonderful organ that is just refurbished and one of the biggest an best organs in these parts of Germany. (But the cathedrals of Speyer and Worms are not far away...) On the other side of the river rhine is the palatia jazz festival in summer, with open air concerts in historical landmarks like castles and an ancient monastery. Historically this region was the "Kurpfalz" that had its court in Mannheim or nearby in Heidelberg. Xavier Naidoo has left the "Söhne Mannheims" (sons of mannheim) some years ago. The group still exists doing soul-pop with german lyrics and it has ineresting side projects, like the "Söhne Mannheims Jazz Department". I live about 15 Kilometers from Mannheim and I work as a freelancing journalist for the arts and entertainment pages of a local newspaper.

[@MusicMattersGB]

Thank you for the fascinating information relating to the musical life of Mannheim, which sits on a tremendous tradition.

[@harrietschack4873]

Very interesting video and hey your pronunciation of the German words are perfect. The recent generation of Mannheimer composers are the Söhne Mannheims with Xavier Naidoo. O tempora, o mores ;-)

[@MusicMattersGB]

Glad you’ve enjoyed it. I’m pleasantly surprised that my German pronunciation is vaguely accurate! Interesting re the next generation.

[@canman5060]

Stamitz father and son. Best know for their many sinfornias. I am looking for a complete recording of them.

[@MusicMattersGB]

Yes. Stamitz is the most famous name in there. Wrote some charming pieces.

[@clavichord]

I've still sometimes heard early Haydn and Mozart symphonies (and Mozart's flute concerto no 1) played with basso continuo though, and I've also see written on early Haydn symphony scores that basso continuo could be played "ad libitum"

[@MusicMattersGB]

Absolutely. It soon disappears.

[@yahyamhirsi]

Great video! Any suggestions on books/resources to read further about Mannheim composers?

[@MusicMattersGB]

Try Eugene K. Wolf, "The Mannheim Court" in The Classical Era, ed. by Neal Zaslaw, Houndmills, McMillan, 1989, ISBN 978-1-349-20628-5

How about the octave run - eg in Beethoven's First Concerto

[@MusicMattersGB]

😀

[@sureshambalayam2720]

Please explain the unison.

[@MusicMattersGB]

Unisons are perfectly acceptable possibilities.

[@sapiensfromterra5103]

Would you also do one on the Venetian school of composers?

[@MusicMattersGB]

Ok

The Mannheim School of Composers are mentors for W A Mozart.

[@MusicMattersGB]

Absolutely

[@canman5060]

They have tutti rather than alberti base !

[@MusicMattersGB]

Certainly tutti as well.

[@jakeblackwell9921]

Rock is by far the best thing to ever happen to music.

[@MusicMattersGB]

It’s one legitimate view.

[@lifepianolessons4681]

Hey I've been following this chanell for a long time and as a piano teacher myself I can tell you this man has the knowledge, he also inspired me to make youtube chanell where I teach piano lessons, hope that you will check it 🖤
