I freaking love bruce
Pure joy to watch.
I have been waiting this for a long time!! What a wonderful program!!
They were good Franz. Of course.
I disagree with Bruce when he says that F# note is a dissonance that doesn't have a name. It is obviously a chromatic appoggiatura. Doesn't change the fact that this dissonance is extremely effective in the context of the piece though.
That was interesting. Schubert still isn't a favourite composer of mine. He has only one famous melody (Ave Maria), and a few semi-famous ones (e.g. Unfinished I). This one we learn is derivative of both Beethoven and a folk song. It's not surprising that the lecture hardly touches on the themes of the other movements, which are nowhere near as interesting or coherent, and which rarely can be saved by interesting variations and modulations.
I would have thought that, as the song king, Schubert would have many famous melodies via the rhythm and inflection of words. Arthur Sullivan composed many quite famous melodies, but only via his excellent librettist.
Beethoven similarly has few famous melodies. Just Ode to Joy, Moonlight Sonata, and Für Elise, plus the fate motif. At least he learned to make his movements coherent rather than his early unconfident jumping from idea to idea, even in chamber ensemble works where it's more about mood and effect than melody. No wonder Schubert was so impressed with Beethoven's late quartets.
So I'm not sure I agree with Bruce's 22:02 opinion on some composers' contrasting melodic structures. Mozart has lots of famous melodies, but didn't jam more than one into a movement, instead developing each coherently and interestingly.
This is one of the most unintelligent comments I've ever read
@@garrysmodsketches agreed. 🤦🏻♂️
Dumbest comment in UA-cam history.
The lecture is on an academic level above that of the average listener. Those who really know classical music will, for one thing, understand the greatness of at least part of Schubert's music, maybe more than you do.
