You should be the host for Crash Course Classical Music. That would be awesome.
Crash Course was a pretty big influence on why I started this channel!
That's so cool! Thanks for answering :)
"Awesome"... every American's go-to adjective 👎🏿
@@finlybenyunes8385 I'm actually Russian 😂
To be on CC, he would have to rewrite the lectures to make them focus on how classical music oppressed marginalized people. That’s their entire focus.
Schubert may not have been recognized as a great musician at his time, but his pieces became immortal.
we don't know whether he met Beethoven, actually
15:31, ok, that's sacrilegious.
Anyway, can you do a video about Francis Poulenc?
Brilliant analysis. I absolutely love your channel! It feeds my need to research about classical music. Keep up the incredible work! ❤️❤️❤️

I absolutely loved your Schubert presentation Thomas !
I'm listening to Gundula Janowitz singing a Schubert song right now.
Irwin Gage on piano.
thank you. I just listened to the winterreise and fell in love with his music a few days ago.
Thank you ... I love your videos!
I just found your channel and I'm very glad I did because you're hilarious. Please never stop.
You are so awesome in taking about all the composers, you even pronounce their name correctly 👍🌹👏thank you
Thank you so much! I've gotten better at it over the years.
Classical Nerd I really appreciate you for great resources 💗
Haydn did write an introduction to a symphony, whose striking theme reoccurs dramatically at the end of the first movement. The symphony known as the drumroll. Beethoven’s use of this idea in the finale of the Fifth Symphony may have been an inspiration for Schubert, but Haydn imagined this breathtaking idea decades before.
Perhaps he wore his glasses in bed in case
1. he was inspired during the night and
2. he did not want to burn his manuscript by knocking over a burning candle while blindly looking for them?!
In his defence I could give him a masterclass in "slobbery!" He is just a starter! I am not proud of this ability!
Thank you as always sir. Blessings and peace
Schubert was a true Genius in his IMPROMPTUS for Piano.
I can never understand why Schubert never wrote a concerto for any instrument. Nobody has ever been able to explain this to me. It's a musical mystery. Great video.
Weil er nur 31 Jahre alt wurde. Vielleicht hätte er noch eins oder mehrere später komponiert.
Just a tiny suggestion. After you're done with Great Composers, could you do a series on Great Musicians like Martha Argerich, Horowitz, Arthur Rubinstein, Heifetz, Perlman etc.
I'm not ever really going to be "done" with talking about composers because there are too many of them [ lentovivace.com/classicalnerd.html ]. I have, however, stopped calling this series "Great Composers" in favor of more unique titles.
Heeeey! Love these videos, you really know your composers! Could you please do one on Verdi? I've found him to be far more interesting than many books and authors led me to believe in the first place... I'd also love to hear your take on Puccini!
Verdi and Puccini have been bumped in the request pool.
would be amazing if all the composer could be organised by their time in history. I'm using this channel to help me pass praxis exams and it's fantastic , the only thing that could make it better is if it was organised in categories of Renaissance, Baroque , Classical , Romantic and Modern periods.
"I am in the world solely for the purpose of composing."
Did Schubert reincarnate Mozart...?
Musically. Philosophically. Literally? (including the partying)
As if Wolfgang Amadeus returned to finish his work (and "respond" to Beethoven), an immense bestowal on prodigiously prolific Schubert, who felt himself divinely inspired: "I am composing like a god, as if it simply had to be done as it has been done."
Thank you!
Great video!!!!!!! I enjoyed this one so much. I must watch the Janacek one soon.
Could I add Bruckner to your list of requests? Great series by the way.
Bruckner has been bumped in the request pool.

I can't wait for Zappa
Ozzy Osbourne of the time
I doubt Ozzy could compose a symphony.
These videos are the best man, keep it going
Excellent. Thank you.
Thank you for all the great work.
great bio!
Impeccable Video! One on A. A. Saygun or T. Хренников would be great.
Saygun and Khrennikov have been added to the request pool.
Genius
Schubert's experimentation with form and harmony is drastically different from Beethoven's most of the time - usually much more progressive. Both the romantic characterpiece and the romantic symphony were pioneered by Schubert, not Beethoven (so was the romantic piano sonata, although that form didn't enjoy great popularity in the late romantic era). Not trying to take away anything that's due, but Ludwig certainly cannot get all the credit, especially for things he didn't do.
The parents were not really 'immigrants'. You are not an immigrant when you move from NY to Washington DC.
A few months ago I saw "Die schöne Müllerin" live sung by Ian Bostridge and had that same reaction at 11:48!
And I'm still wait for you music how long does it speechless to be play some Schubert
What I learnt here is that it's better put work on hold for operas. Need all the time you can get.
Please include your name and maybe even where you are. Your composer videos are entertaining and interesting and it would be good to know more about you.
Another one of my favorites.

I would politely disagree on the Unfinished Symphony - Schubert did indeed start writing a scherzo third movement. You can hear a speculative completion of it by Brian Newbould, who discusses the matter in his book ‘Schubert and the Symphony’.
I don't have that book but I have Newbould's biography of Schubert (a primary source for this video). I should have been more clear-Schubert did seem to attempt a continuation but broke it off, and if I recall correctly, it had something to do with not wanting three consecutive movements in triple meter.
Yes indeed - well, that’s one theory anyway!
YES finally
So is Weimar Classicism part of the Romantic Era?
The dates are ill-fitting and illustrate the myriad problems with the way we categorize musical (and other artistic) eras, but-broadly speaking-if one considers 1772-1805 to be the era of Weimar Classicism, then it would be considered the beginning of _literary_ Romanticism, but it predates _musical_ Romanticism by several years.
Can you please do one on Arthur Sullivan?
Sullivan has been bumped up in the request pool.
😢
Do you have a Patreon? Would love to donate!
I don't have one as yet, but crowdfunding plans are well in the works and should be coming along within the next month!
11:31 did you have a stroke?
How else is one supposed to pronounce _Die schöne Müllerin?_
Classical Nerd it just sounded funny lol. Also while I have you on the line I was wondering if you could put Georges bizzet in the question?
@@ClassicalNerd due sheleiemirinilininin
Considering that Goethe returned the manuscript unopened, how can you assert that he hated them?
Love the video, but I have one small correction to make: Goethe wrote in the german classical period and the one preceding it. While the romantic movement was allready in full swing during his later years, he never adapted to it.
Romantic composers extensively drew upon Goethe and his works, all the way up through Mahler. It's often hard to clarify artistic eras simply because of music's tendency to lag behind visual or literary developments and trends, or interpretation of previous-era trends in other fields as a touchstone of inspiration.
"Swathe" rhymes with "lathe" NOT with "moth"!
It does in American English.
@@ClassicalNerd I just checked by watching a How to pronounce... video on UA-cam which said that SWATHE has a long A sound in both UK and US English, like "bathe"...
I trust dictionaries' IPA spellings, which lists both as valid. What I said is what I have heard quite literally all my life.
@@ClassicalNerd So how do you pronounce SWATHED (as in "swathed in velvet")?
Like an American.
