worshipper pa Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 Mozart => #4Beethoven => #10=> Mozart<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Why is Mozart better than Beethoven?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Beethoven has some foolish things in his music, his orchestral music is too ambitious compared to the use of orchestra. Also, Beethoven was not that good in contrapunct.Don't get me wrong, I like Beethoven a lot, especially his 6th symphony, missa solemnis, late string quartets and piano concerto no. 4. Quote

Overall, I think that Mozart is better in faster, inspiring music (Marriage Of Figaro, Eine Kleine Nachtmusik); while Beethoven is better in slower, relaxing music (Emperor, Moonlight Sonata). Quote
slea Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 beethoven, if only for the second movement of his 7th symphony - it's incredible. Quote
red_ed Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 If only I knew something about classical music...I used to enjoy listening to it as a kid, but not anymore.i couldn't tell you the technical aspects to music, though <_< Quote

Often people who had studied some instruments like piano for quite some time, know little about the technical details of classical music. Quote
red_ed Posted September 12, 2005 Posted September 12, 2005 Well I have no idea about music full stop. I think the only instrument I can play is the triangle I THINK!!! How how do normal people differentiate the good from the bad then? Is there a set method? Quote

Is there a set method? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I don't and can't play any musical instrument at all and know nothing about music. But, I do listen to a lot of classicals. There is no set method. You just listen and think what sounds better to you. It's just how you perceive, at least that's how it is for me. But, for those musicians, they really analyse the sound structures and quality as they listen. 10___Canon__London_Symphony_Orchestra.mp3 10___Canon__London_Symphony_Orchestra.mp3 Quote

red_ed Posted September 13, 2005 Posted September 13, 2005 Nearly everything sounds good to me though I'm not too fussed about what I listen to. Actually that applies to most parts of my life e.g. I'm not too fussed about what food I eat either and most things come across as tasty Quote
Lorelei Posted September 13, 2005 Posted September 13, 2005 I vote for Beethoven I have also a Mozart CD but I don't like his music... fortunately, I purchased it for 1 Quote

Anouk Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 Mozart. I'm fan of him. He has composed the best Requiem, i think. Quote
