This is wonderful! Superior to the Romantics. I always enjoy a piece by the Neapolitan masters of which Piccinni was. As to Markusboyd3, that is because these men were taught the same musical formulas in the Neapolitan conservatories and each applied them in differing, but similar ways. The Romantics destroyed this school of thought and for that I have no love for them.
Why wouldn't anyone want new or at least more imaginative ideas. Formulaic gets dull. I dont want to hear I,Iv,V forever its makes pop music always the same no matter voice,lyrics or instrumentation.
@MrInterestingthings It's the presentation and expected use (or delightfully unexpected failure) to use certain schemata that makes the music so charming. It's not a continuous progression of 1-4-5 chords, there are many others, and even the 1-4-5 chords have a great many subtleties to their deployment and usage. There are at least 20 different types of cadence's commonly used in the 17th and 18th century all based on 1-5-1. Much romantic music is just noise to my ear, unpleasant chords and progressions. Unorthodoxy.
in realtà Piccinni era di Bari, non fece granché in patria, arrivato a Parigi fu introdotto a Corte. E' famosa la sua polemica con Gluck che divise Parigi fra piccinnisti e gluckisti.
I agree to a certain extent, that composers can be consumers of a particular style. I just feel that I have not heard anything new after listening to this. However, many composers could not afford to be original, in the sense of breaking the norm, as their career depended on public opinion. And so, we have mass amounts of music from this period, in which conformed to the status quo. Composers of such, sadly fall into abandonment, in the shadow of the 'great innovators', such as Haydn or Mozart.
If you view it by another point of view, great innovators appears to be like that because of other composers being "abandoned" in the shadows…. And count that composers such as Mozart and Haydn (more Mozart than Haydn) was also abandoned. So it should be more correct to say that some composers hasn't still been re-discovered.
