I really dont know why those composers are considered the big 3.Personally I find Mozart very boring. If you've played one sonata, you've played them all. Bach is nice, but it is just too much of the same. I like the late piano sonatas of Beethoven. So Beethoven might be my choice of those 3.I think other composers like Chopin, Schubert and Schumann are much greater.
However the music of Chopin and the others i mentioned, is musically much richer and has more variation (every single piece, every single bar).
Are you kidding me? Try comparing one bar of a Bach fugue with a bar of Chopin. How is there any comparison in complexity and variation?Not that complexity necessarily implies greatness.
i have no idea how some think mozart is boring
I have yet to uncover a single work of Mozart which I would call boring (Haydn, on the other hand .....).
I have yet to uncover a single work of Mozart which I wouldn't call boring.
Have you listened to the A major concerto K488? Don Giovanni? the Requiem? Die Zauberfloete? Do you find these boring?
I find that Rachmaninov is the best of all the composers, but of the classical/baroque as this thread is going along the lines of, I would say... none. They are all no good for me. I like romantic and shall stay that way, i think, but i'm open to ideas. I can't stand the boringness and simplicity of mozart... sorry
Oh, come ON-- why do we have to say that one is greater than the others? Each man was a genius in his own (very unique) rite:Bach-- profoundly spiritualMozart-- profoundly sublimeBeethoven-- profoundly humanAll-- profoundly beautifulThat said, how could we possibly make a valid judgment? Now stop worrying and go practice
Rachmaninoff over Mozart... Right.
Lousy taste? You sure are full of yourself, aren't you.
