My last MOD test is today for McGraw Hill. I wish I could see all your videos throughout my semester. But I am grateful to have seen it at all. :) Thank you so much for making music knowledge more relatable to present times.
First of all, thank you for your wonderful video! I could watch all the images on the video at home. But when I played it for my virtual public high school music appreciation classes, we could not view the video images. We could hear only your lecture voice. I am wondering why... .
The Romantic Music Era starts once Beethoven stopped performing live and turned to compositional form as his sole expression. Hand in hand with this was the evolution of the piano, which allowed for the display of greater dynamics. Overnight, all other composers and performers took note and started to explore the territory that Beethoven mapped. Also, I suggest scripting out what you're going to cover. This will a) provide greater clarity to your topic, b) cut down on the rambling drone of voice, c) limit your use of crutch words.
I noticed that he mentions Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven were "the three only real composers of the Classical period." I'm not here to provide a critique of this video, but I feel like the musical world in general does a great disservice to the Classical period by focusing strictly on the 1st Viennese School. Some composers get left out entirely who did more than just write quality music, they were revolutionaries in their own right. The genius of Gluck provides a vital link between the Baroque and Classical periods, as does the progeny of JS Bach, one of which, Johann Christian, was a direct influence on Mozart himself. On top of that, if there was no Mannheim School, its arguable the Viennese school itself might not exist. I feel like it should be standard for a discussion of the Classical period, in all music appreciation classes, at the very least a include Christoph Gluck and Johann Stamitz, in addition to the monopoly holding Triumvirate we're all familiar with.
Thank you :) I am not one of your students sorry. I stumbled across this while I was trying to find a summary. It's exam week and I've not finished two tests for my professor. Thank you.
@@UnderstandingMusic maaaaan. That sucks! Your videos are helping me prepare for my graduate music history placement exams! I'm glad all the others are here to help me review. Thanks for making them!
1820, bah. I never agreed with that nonsense. Whoever made that date was waiting for Haydn to die. The Classical era died with the powdered wig's popularity! Beethoven and Schubert are Romantic through and through, and even very late Mozart was going into EPIC territory rather than his usual fluff.
Odd, because I never considered him romantic beyond his requiem and a few of his other late works, such as his 40th symphony. (Or maybe I'm just a sucker for G-minor.) But most of his music is just silly "la dee da dee da!" rather than the "DUN! DUN! DUN DUN DUN DUN DUN!!!!" I'll have to look this up.
While the documentary (mockumentory?) put me in a place that gave me comfort, I didn't really agree with the message of it. I mean Eine Kleine Nachtmusik having some hidden depression in it? Fucking hell, that's just the filmmaker's bullshitting! I never realized Mozart made that just after his father's death, and I never would have guessed it either! But if that is actually the case, that is precisely what makes Mozart the epitomy of the Classical era and all its ideals! Also, I understand that he didn't really know why he was composing a requiem, and joked about how he was composing a requiem for himself! tl;dr Mozart is disgustingly overrated, and bleh.
tl;dr you have no idea what you are talking about and should be ashamed to post such uneducated and narrow-minded comments on a "music appreciation" channel.

Thank you very much! Very helpful!
First five minutes: there's another video about art songs, study guide is in the comment.
Does anyone know why Part 2 says "Blocked in country?"

I wish American speakers could be more precise, rather than meandering with vague descriptions, you knows, and pauses.

way too long video
Oh nonsense! I like my videos how I like my music: long and hard.
Not the only thing you like long and hard...
I'm sorry, I had to ;)
