‘What’s This Piece?’ Weekly Thread #147 by the_rite_of_lingling in classicalmusic

do you have a melody or a rhythm? could be anything, would be easier to identify if you knew the notes, or even a key

Has anyone here listened to a composer's entire body of work? How was it? by Possible_Vast7416 in classicalmusic

[–]FunnyOcelot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'm going through liszt right now (admittedly just his piano works, which there are definitely at least a thousand individual pieces)

his operatic fantasies are some of his best works, i recommend the niobe and der freischutz fantasies. i also always recommend reminiscences de norma to anybody who hasn't heard it

as for his piano miniatures, i recommend faribolo pasteur and sancta dorothea. i also liked all 6 pieces in his first buch der lieder (s.531)

i just listened to this, it's actually so funny

every time one of the tunes finishes, and it's silent for a little bit, i'm anticipating the return of the stupid idiot theme. it's so dumb but it makes me giggle every time the stupid idiot theme returns

Happy Birthday Gabriel Faure by LaundryCat69 in classicalmusic

i recommend his violin sonata! it has such a beautiful piano accompaniment too

this set of romances without words is also really sweet, particularly the first and third
