I found this video tracing influence from Yngwie J. Malmsteen to Bach to Buxtehude. It's nice to see this relevant, well presented bridge of information.

The comments "no dead space" in the operas and comparing time spent at an opera to Hamilton is ridiculous - more substance please!

As a first exposure to an opera, do you recommend a traditional staging or an updated one? Personally, I prefer a traditional one.

Carmen plays with men because she sees right through them.

yo Jonathan goodman, big fan of your channel. Can you do a 360 while on the toilet for us?

A good opera singer does not need a microphone.

10:50 I think the Gloria in the communion service is also great

Amazing work. Now do videos about composers, pleaseeeeeee.

My love for opera began around my 11 birthday. First one in the family. At that age I enjoyed a good story. So, Mozart: Zauberflöte and Le Nozze di Figaro, Smetana: The Bartered Bride, Weber: Der Freischütz, Verdi: Macbeth. I got a lot of vinyl records and my mother bravely accompanied me for five years to our small town opera (around 30 performances). A very expensive hobby for a kid. My big projects before my 15 birthday: Wagner: Meistersinger and Verdi: Don Carlo. I was very thankful for the metropolitan opera‘s stream during COVID.

"Other entertainment"? Reminds me of how the government classified Ned Rorem.

I love the musical intro to your videos.

Lumping all of "opera" into one category is specious reasoning. They are not ALL "theatrical" genres or "musical" genres. Different works emphasize and function quite differently relative to the audience.

@Keep it classical Why can't this video be downloaded? Please i need to download it

"Great" can mean "large."

I'm experiencing library envy.

Classical Music is opera song?

The early Christian church's music was not covered in this video, but, apart from the unknown hymn mentioned in the Scriptures at the last supper, everything else covered was just Satanic organized religion's music. Constantine never converted, it was a political maneuver at best, and a devilish scheme at worst, and I think it was the latter given the prophecies found in both old and new testaments that speak of the Roman Catholic Church, whose secret religion is Satanism, and not Christianity, which is why they call the Pope, "pope" meaning Father, a title that Jesus is very clear in the Scriptures, goeth to no mortal man; that Christians have one Father, even God, not a devil possessed man in a gown. The story with Gregory and the dove could have been true, but if it was, then that was not the holy Ghost, but rather a devil, of whom the scriptures call birds in several places. Yes, I know the Holy Ghost descended LIKE a dove or in a bodily shape like as a dove in the gospels, but not an actual physical form of a dove. Please understand what you are dealing with when it cometh to the Roman Catholic and Orthodoxx and protestant churches. The church of God, Christians, are those that believe the words of God (and not merely professing to believe, actually believe), today found in the King James Bible, and who have been born again of the Spirit of God through faith in the Gospel and Jesus Christ, the Son of God, in his death, burial, and resurrection to pay for their sins: those who call upon his name and believe upon his name. All of these people parading around in robes and going to buildings they call churches and cathedrals are playing pretend at best and are engaged in withcraft and conscious devil worship at the worst. There may be some low level well meaning people who are deceived, to that the Scriptures say, Come out of her my people that ye partake not in her plagues. We have the words of God as the standard, because men are both fallible and corruptible and evil. But God is good, and faithful and his word is tried and good and faithful and powerful and is able to save thy soule from death. And God hath both promised and fulfilled that he would preserve his words forever and that he would shew his covenant to them that fear him. 1 Corinthians 15:1-8 KJV Romans 10:2-13 KJV Proverbs 30:4-6 KJV John 14:6 KJV John 14:22-24 KJV

Supertramp: Paris. Brilliance.

This period of late medieval is fabulous. More please. Warren

I didn't know I was making polyphony until my mentor told me, but this video helped to gain more knowledge in Organum Thank you, Mate!

Have you done a program on Monteverdi? He probably merits his own segment since he straddles the Renaissance and Baroque eras.

Bear in mind that this is a joke: Do you have an edifice complex?😀

Puccini's Gianni Schicchi is perfect for beginners. Short (1 act) and funny.

Here from PENTHOUSE KDRAMA ❤

Did Allegro Non Troppo bring anyone here?

Excellent video! Really I enjoyed it. You english is load and clear. I need to practice my listenning and your youtube channel is a very high quality video to learn classical music and english. Congratulations!

Fuvest, você me paga

A pretty ideal list I think. You do mention that Magic Flute has dialogue which can be easier for people new to opera--but many productions of Carmen do as well (in fact I've seen it live more often with the original spoken dialogue than the recitative added after Bizet)--Sondheim himself, who seemed to have a weird love/hate relationship with opera, called Carmen a "song opera" that plays a lot like modern musicals in its original version (his personal favourite Porgy and Bess, another good introduction to opera although perhaps a bit controversial, also fits that category despite originally having recitative that in various productions has been changed to dialogue.)

Thank you. Amazing work.

Thanks What about Henry purcell

Great Video! Thank you! Could it be argued that the parallel organum, although presented here as polyphonic, could be interpreted as homophonic since the voices appear to move not independently from each other? Asking for a friend who is about to take praxis II music content knowledge ; ) Thanks again for a great video and channel!

When I think classical music, I think Baywatch.

Check out Howells' Sonatina for piano , a product of his later years. It has some amazingly lively counterpoint in its outer movements, and a moody Sarabande, one of his favourite forms, as a second movement.

ur so entertaining(cough cough)

Bringing leftist political garage into this subject...nice 🙄

Another choral/organ composer, a contemporary of HH was German composer Hugo Distler.

Cool

4:04 its either star wars or symphony no 5 are my first htoughts

good first choices for beginners

You had me at "villain"

Super accurate and quick description of church history. It provides essential context for most pre-Renaissance music.

Smetana's Bartered Bride could be added to the list. Recently this was performed in Munich in German translation as a high speed comedy and the audience was enthusiastic.

Joke about banjo 😅

Wow the very last part (whom the music is for) was very well stated. I'll know how to tell my non-musical friends now!

To God be the glory wonder music and presentation may The Lord of GoD almighty richly bless thee!

cool video, thank you! One thought: Homophonic I would call Polyhonic but homorhythmical...

This video is sooo cool!

Where should I sit? I heard it in the middle or balcony. The tickets show from the stage: Orchestra Pit, Orchestra, Orchestra Terrace, Orchestra Rear, Rear Floor, Loge, Mezzanine, or Balcony. Please help lol
