I'm trying to imagine the music genre of Mozart Death House..

Classical instruments, but played in beat and repetition like house, and with death metal growling vocals πŸ€”

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you also add some industrial elements to it bands like igorrr come to mind.

Amazing! Thanks for this.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

It's been 4 years since his last album. I need more Igorrr.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yes. I've been trying to remember this band. Thanks.

Isn't that just generic epic trailer music?

Mozart + Death Metal + House

Not going to lie, my entire work music playlist consists of rock and metal songs played by string quartet.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Apocalyptica? I ask because they're the only ones who come to mind. If you've got others I'd love to check them out.

Vitamin String Quartet and Midnite String Quartet

They are both on Spotify

I'm imagining Mozart like an elephant where he knows when he's close to death and goes to a dedicated place to die.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago (2 children)

This is a myth btw. The elephant graveyards turned out to be former wells where elephants spent alot of time and – according to probability – many died there

TIL. Thanks!

Wait, is this a tweet with a YouTube comment?

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It's a screenshot of a tweet but shared on YouTube as a community post, which has comments. Lmao

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

And now posted on Lemmy.

Yep, that's it.

So, a screenshot of a tweet shared as a YouTube β€œCommunity Post”. (Long name, Alphabet could afford Twitter’s old naming rights…)

35 years old! Makes me wonder what he would've come up with next, where music would be today if he'd lived to a ripe old age.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I'm already 2 years older than Mozart was when he died, the fuck am I even doing with my life

You underestimate my capacity for failure.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Not unless you'll fail to fail.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

the fuck am I even doing with my life

Living. Unlike Mozart at that age. You're doing fine. Just keep shining on...

Duh duh duh dom

Honestly his later works were so much better than his earlier ones too. The 41st symphony contains what is probably in the top 5 greatest post-Bach fugues, and it's definitely the best post-Bach fugue that was around at the time. The clarinet concerto is easily one of the best works for that instrument (I say this as a clarinetist), and it's also among Mozart's greatest concerti for any instrument. And the brilliance of the Requiem he was ironically writing at the time of his death speaks for itself.

If he had lived longer, we might have been saying that Mozart, not Beethoven, ushered in the next era of music. Sadly we'll never know.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah but he drank himself to death by writing Requiem

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What are the other greatest post-Bach fugues? Including the modern era; I love fugues as a form but don’t have a theory or composition background

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The next obvious one that comes to mind is Die Große Fuge. This video has a bunch of examples of fugues in Beethoven Symphonies, though IMO none of them are among the strongest like Die Große Fuge is. That said, this guy disagrees with me and claims the fugue in Beethoven's 9th Symphony's final movement is the best Beethoven. He also says that of the Romantic and post-Romantic eras, Mahler's 8th Symphony, 1st movement, is his favourite. I'd have gone with the Bruckner he references, which is probably from the finale of the 5th Symphony, but I'm not the biggest Mahler fan in general.

Thanks! I’ll check these out.

Yeah well it'd been difficult for him to be him and to live to a ripe old age, given that he was a severe alcoholic and overall incredibly crazy

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'm older than he was. I guess I'm lucky that I'm a drunk and not an alcoholic (no, really, send help please).

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Considering he wrote a song called Lick Me in the Ass, we're probably missing out on classics like Shit in My Mouth, and Fuck me in the Ear.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Isn't there a theory that Mozart was murdered?
