I hear Tumblr is getting woke
I swear I used to know what all that meant back in my Music Appreciation elective class
In the sense that they’re banning all pornography, which floats 99% of Tumblr? Yes
@RoadtoDawn and I thought I was being outsider friendly 😣 Still top tier pieces
a concerto is basically a 3 movement piece with a full orchestra centered around a single instrument playing as a soloist
I insist on not adjusting your terminology for my sake, proper language is always important
Oh right
Yh the problem is it’s a whole field of study that hasn’t really been active in the past 50 years in regards to new *actually* famous composers
So people kind of shy away from it because of how complex it is but also because it seems outdated
> famous composers
> modern ones
M8
But its still high quality art that relates to life in every way
I don’t know much about this shit right
Yeah its kinda becoming a lost art :(
But as far as I can see the only “classical” pieces produced and got/made famous in the past fifty years have been Commie inspired bullshit
Of course it’s gonna degrade
Communists ruin everything they touch
Postmodernist works lol
People like xenakis
I was raised Protestant (not Protestant anymore) and had the delight of listening to an organ and choir during church services. I think it stuck with me all of my life and plays a large role in my appreciation of classical
And game soundtracks. Like jeremy soule with skyrim
Like as I said I don’t know much about this area of music/musical history in general, but whenever I see modern works it’s always got that French/South American revolutionary zeal
Exactly
And I’m sitting here thinking what the actual fuck
Pinochet didn’t go far enough with the helicopters
lol
@yuma_8 going to an orthodox church now bro
I stopped going years ago. But I lm still sort of an agnostic, cultural christian
Dawkins turned me into an atheist years ago, Peterson reeled me back in
Dawkins turned you away? Of all people?
Yeah ikr
He actually has impressively bad arguments against Christianity haha
I just had a personal revelation about realizing the classic idea of heaven was impossible, and I couldnt shake it
@yuma_8 yeah I was a diehard Protestant before. Would have defended the denomination to the grave had it not been for gaining a deeper understanding of the faith, scripture, church history
But Ive come back to defending christianity, I just have vastly different ideas about are place in the universe and shit
Our*
Maybe ive been listening to too much Phish, Scriabin who was a full blown mystic, and listening to Rogan
Its cool that Jordan Peterson has pulled you back a little, but know that the classical liberalism has issues of its own. I call it being blue pilled, but others would just say its generally incoherent
That’s fine. I’ve had many conflicting perspectives, I’m settled on classical liberalism for now, but just learning things as I go
