I think we got it dukey; Max Richter Four Seasons

i'll listen and see if i like it

 

[Joe Mac]

i am kinda hoping its not wagner... its a bit too easy listening to me

Wagner? I’m taking it you mean the classical composer? Easy Listening? Oooooook!

 

[Satchmo2go]

If it's Richter I'm sold. Listening to it now and loving it. Got the instant familiarity of Vivaldi but doing something different with it. Will wait until it's announced, but I'll definitely be getting it.

Also remember liking the Ad Astra soundtrack, which is him as well.

Yup. Samesies. I love richters movie work. Like love. I am getting to the point where I can pick him out. His work on hostiles was superb. I hope this is it

 

[Thackeraye]

Wagner? I’m taking it you mean the classical composer? Easy Listening? Oooooook!

i thought the same thing, but it's the Walt Wagner pick earlier on.

All the talk of Wagner led me to this:

no i meant the walt wagner album that was the guess until max richter happened

 

[Joe Mac]

oh ok! Good! I was thinking Wagner absolutely is not easy listening .

also I must completely have missed fhat
Walt Wagner (never heard of) album being a front runner, i don’t even remember it being picked. Probably too busy talking about marmalade...

Go for it!

Cliff Martinez's Solaris soundtrack was my jump in point for a lot of this kind of stuff. Bit more electronic, but I love it.

 

[Joe Mac]

Just listening to this Max Richter Vivaldi recomposition. Wow this is magical, very impressed. I wonder if there is an SACD of it, I keep all my classical on digital...

 

[duke86fan]

well... this sure is classical music

i get the appeal but i dont have a connection to classical like that

If you want to explore more this is a great place to start. Classical has just as many sub-genres as contemporary music, and this pretty much a core text.

its kinda weird... like i know im supposed to feel emotion... and it does get close... but it doesn't really hit me with like a good pop song or a melancholy art rock piece does to me.. its a weird disconnect.. my brain isn't getting pathos when i feel i should be

Yeah, along with Beethoven’s 5th it’s one of the most ubiquitous pieces of music.

 

[supahypeag]

Just as an aside, I liked this scene

 

[TenderLovingKiller®]

Or a 5th of Beethoven...ammmirite!?!!!

Yesterday I watched Somebody Feed Phil's Chicago episode and he had a prosciutto, mellon, burrata and prosciutto butter sandwich at some place.
Today I made my wife that sandwich whilst (is that the correct use?) streaming Max Richter's Vivaldi Recomposed, we had some wine and my purchase was approved.
So, yeah, pretty good for a Thursday.

i mainly listen to classical music either early on a Sunday with a coffee or whilst cooking/eating! It’s a great accompaniment!

No dsd version sorry

There is an SHM CD from Japan though but that's 50 bucks on discogs

 

[gafacaode]

Boy, half a bottle of wine and I feel woozy and my wife is doing Sudoku...
I'm such a light weight, it's embarrassing.
Carry on...

I think the ubiquity of Beethoven and Mozart were the things that made me not interested in classical..

Like every music related or art course talks about them
