Classical Music Thread

Discuss the classics...........

All genres, eras, and periods, like.......
Medieval
Renaissance
Baroque
Classical
Romantic

Styles of Music - both secular and non-secular
Opera both Seria and Buffa (Arias, Preludes, Overtures, favourite Canzone, etc.)
Symphonies
Chamber Music

Gregorian Chant....... those monks, lol.

No military music, lol. Although 1812 is kind of........... okay, not.


Your favourite composers........

Haydn, Vivaldi, Shostakovich, Mozart, Orff, even modern/contemporary classic composers, like Gershwin and Stravinski.

Oh, and favourite artists who bring the music alive. One of my favourites, Kiri Te Kanawa - funny how most people cannot pronounce it properly.

When I was studying music at UBC, I spent countless hours locked up in Sedgwick Library's listening room. Do they even have it anymore? Lol. The name Wilson rings a bell.

Anyway............ gear heads can appreciate the arts, right?

Dirty look from MG1 can melt steel beams.

"There must be dissonance before resolution - MG1" a musical reference.
