Luxion Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 (edited) It's been two years since I got into classical music. However, I always come back to the "popular" music I liked before that. How do I fully get into classical music? If I stop listening to popular music for some months, would it help? How did you get into this wonderful world? tag: best ringtone Edited June 24, 2021 by Luxion OLESYA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jules Winnfield Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 don't try to get narrow minded like some others do. Every kind of music is wonderful depends on which mood you are. So why do you want to close one door when your soul needs variety? Better, open your mind and find more fabulous sounds from other genres too.

AHT Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Well usually we already know many from films or TV - usually the popular section - eg everybody knows Ode to Joy, but many would only know the very short part. So maybe start that way. Find a popular section and listen to the whole piece. I liek Beethoven's Piano Concerto nr 5. second and third movement being good. You could watch Fantasia as that is animation to classical music. I don't think dropping a type of music for another is the answer, though I guess as you get older your taste matures - though hey I still love Hey Micky Maxi and Jules Winnfield 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MintChalida93 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 I think each genre of music has its own interesting points. If you want to get into classical music, spend a lot of time listening to it. Listen more then you understand and deeply feel the melody of classical music.

Guest Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 (edited) I grew up listening to it. My dad would play it in the car, in the house, everywhere. He listened to classic rock on occasion as well. When I was a teenager I rebelled a bit and got into to hard rock and metal, went way deep into stuff like Metallica and then more progressive like Dream Theater. By my mid 20s I really started embracing new music, blues, jazz, soul, funk, and even getting back into all the music my dad would play, so J.S. Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, Chopin, Dvorak, Grieg, Mahler, Mozart, Rachmaninov, Schubert, Shostakovich, Tchaikovsky, Vivaldi. There is definitely more I could explore, but Dvorak’s Symphony No. 9 in E Minor is a favourite of mine. Speaking of rock and metal. One of my favourite Metallica albums is their collaboration with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra (RIP Michael Kamen). The music from Ride the Lightening and Master of Puppets really goes well with a symphony. Check out The Call of Ktulu and For Whom the Bell Tolls. The originals are heavy and epic, but the orchestra version just takes it to another level of heavy and epic for me. The track No Leaf Clover which they released only on this album is also one of my favourite Metallica songs. It is also probably the last album before Lars Ulrich drum sound went to complete shit (St. Anger LOL). I would love to hear more styles of music with a full orchestra, although I do understand that paying 100+ musicians is not really practical for most bands and not everyone has the music to match.

Paulanna Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 I was put in an advanced reading class experiment in the 5th grade. We would read Shakespear and the like while listening to classical music and that just kind of joined itself with my love of reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxi Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 I'd suggest opening it out a bit and approach it as orchestral music rather than 'classical'. That takes you into soundtracks and even into rock, from which you can find what you enjoy more and follow it down the rabbit hole (Mozart, for example, is very different from Rimsky-Korsakov). I fell into the more classical stuff through childhood exposure, but found my way into opera through cartoons, believe it or not! For example, here's a little Wagner (and this very cartoon was what started me off without even realising it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PluushPuussy Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 I was raised by grandparents, one being Italian and the other being 1/2 Cuban, so you can only imagine how volatile the atmosphere could be, and at a constant. He had these really huge speakers in each of the corners of our living room and would play Mozart and Mantovani at excessive levels, singing loudly in his Connecticut brand of Italian. We lived central to two barrios so the music wasn't popular with our neighbors either. I grew to thoroughly hate anything related until app. 13 years ago when the Scandi countries were pushing a lot of Gothic Metal and I loved it so much I began a two-year stint of freelance music journalism. I like strings now, but I particularly love the vocals. ♥ Vibeke Stene! AtticusFinch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PluushPuussy Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 (edited) 3 minutes ago, DustyWibbles said: My grandmother loved Mantovani. I was sadly introduced to him through her last days when I recorded her favourite Mantovani pieces from Vinyl to Cassette so she could listen at the hospice. He’s not my favourite but I can appreciate why Giagia adored him. Excuse the melancholy reply, it brought back fond memories. Oh, I hope you enjoyed the bouncy castle the other day lol The music itself is often hand-in-hand with melancholy, right? It's that phukked up stuff that makes us all real, even in spite of ourselves. So ^5 your post! Yes, it was lots of fun. I even liked that dorky dance move and watching the guys bounce their .. ya.
