neonhorn22 Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 ;) [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UU9fCqnMlgU]YouTube - Vitamin String Quartet viva la vida - Coldplay[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r26kecngAjM&feature=related]YouTube - Sibelius Suite for Violin and Strings op.117[/ame] Seblius has nice stuff. Also check out Schubert, Vivaldi, or Bartok (for a more modern take on string quartets) EDIT: Also agree with those who have posted about "The Seasons." It's a great string piece. My brass quintet is currently working on "Autumn" for a wedding this weekend. It's pretty hairy for brass....lots of sixteenth and thirty-second notes....'cause we have to mimic strings, which is difficult for brass players.

ricardo Posted March 31, 2010 Author Share Posted March 31, 2010 Baroque blows them all! I'm into Biber's Rosary Sonatas right now. The fourth is easily among my favourite solo violin pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noonsun Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Listen to Camille Saint-Saens! I am an expert on classical music... because I am really into it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricardo Posted March 31, 2010 Author Share Posted March 31, 2010 I like him: Like romantic and some early modern composers his work is dense and intense, fantasy and feelings play an important role, but in my opinion, will never be as intense and deep as Bach's fugues and fantasies. I see most romantic, modernist, post-romantic, impressionist, expressionism etc (I'm unacquainted with the lots of other trends of the 20th century, like minimalism) as perfect soundtracks, while Baroque music is rather ethereal and deep. It's like grabbing a violin and make it speak to the infinite and receiving the response in your spirit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noonsun Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Yeah I tend to agree, I do tend to like Baroque better, but Saint-Saens is definitely one of my favorite Romantic composers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricardo Posted March 31, 2010 Author Share Posted March 31, 2010 I remember listening to Danse Macabre in a cartoon when I was a kid. Don't remember which one though. It must have been in Bugs Bunny, or Mickey or Tom & Jerry. Btw it's amazing that current toons (well actually I may be wrong, but last time I checked) are rubbish, when classic ones such as Bugs Bunny & Buddies and Mickey used looots of classical music. (And of course the plot etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(And of course the plot etc) Bugs Bunny first got me appreciative of classical music, the chase scenes combined with music are really amazing and also super impressive technically. I really wish cartoons were still like old Looney Tunes because I would unquestionably watch them all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
