      Except after finishing the Pathetique, he went on to write the Piano Concerto No. 3.

      It is often misconstrued as his final statement before his slow meander into the abyss, but his death was quite unexpected. Still, perhaps there are powers at play we could never begin to comprehend , and when I hear those final arching chords before the gradual end, I think maybe on some unfathomable level he perhaps knew.

      What is guaranteed to give me resounding fits of the vapors is his 1812 Overture, beginning with the very first bar with the Hymm, "God Preserve Thy People", and then all throughout the rest of the piece, I carry on as though I'd personally witnessed the sudden death of my entire family by firing squad!

    • @johnnidark6463
      @johnnidark6463 3 роки тому +50

      ​@@FreakieFan Correct, most masterpieces don't come out of thin air, but are the perfecting of predecessors' work and contributions. See Handel, who took from multiple different Baroque traditions throughout Europe, Bach's perfecting of contrapuntal forms he didn't invent, Mozart's entire output as an absorption, amalgamation, perfection of Classical styles invented by others throughout Europe, Brahms building on Beethoven, the Beatles taking from many people, etc. Mozart plagiarized and expanded on many others' works throughout his career; see for example the closing theme and chord progression from the 4th fugato movement of his Jupiter Symphony, which he lifted from the closing theme of the fugato 4th movement Michael Haydn's symphony of the same key, or his Requiem which is inspired by Michael Haydn's requiem in C minor (especially the Quam olim Abrahae, at the end of Domine Jesu, which is from Michael Haydn's own Quam oim Abrahae.) If they had youtube comments back then, I guess they'd be knocking anyone who used Alberti bass who wasn't D. Alberti himself, and Mozart's K183 Con Brio would be knocked for using Stamitz's Mannheim rockets. A composition building on preexisting music can count as creativity any day, and the quantity and quality of the creativity is based on what the new composer actually adds to and improves on the original. You didn't hear what Finn Music wrote, so of course you are not in any position to actually gauge what his level of creativity is. But we /do/ know that he imagines places where that music can be expanded/elaborated/ improved/perhaps built to greater heights and depths, even if a small improvement, and has the drive to execute, as well as the critical thinking attitude to not be easily satisfied with some predecessors' work as being sufficient. Much better that than a complacency and/or lack of imagination and inspiration to see past what Tchaikovsky created, as you have. IMO a great critical thinking composer should always ask of a piece, no matter how great it is, "hypothetically, if this is the threshold for garbage, what/where/how would great be?" Shakespeare, Mozart, Beethoven, Bach, Einstein etc didn't kick the ball forward by having the reverent attitude: "my predecessors did a great job, they are right, they did everything right, have perfected everything and did everything to completion; nothing more in this field is needed."
