Russian Composers, Part III

classical — Thu, 02 Dec 2010 20:57:59 +0000

This time the whole thing is devoted to Dmitri Shostakovich, who I think I like even more than Stravinsky.

Russian Composers, Part II

classical — Thu, 02 Dec 2010 20:56:26 +0000

This whole show is devoted to the incredible Igor Stravinsky. I wish my name was Igor so I could be a great composer.

I love Russia! Today we listen to Rachmaninoff, Tchaikovsky, and Prokofiev.

A Couple Piano Pieces That Are Only Vaguely Related

classical — Thu, 02 Dec 2010 20:52:53 +0000

I just felt like playing them. I think I try to give some reason why they’re related.

Tchaikovsky

classical — Thu, 02 Dec 2010 20:50:53 +0000

Today we listen to some pieces by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky that are cooler than his name.

Beethoven’s Fugues

classical — Thu, 02 Dec 2010 20:49:26 +0000

Today we listen to some pieces of Beethoven’s where he writes fugues, a huge aspect of his late period. If you don’t know what a fugue is, listen and I’ll tell you! Or you could look it up. But listen anyway.

Schubert

classical — Thu, 02 Dec 2010 20:44:09 +0000

Franz Schubert is pretty cool, & sounds more like Beethoven than Beethoven himself.

Austrian Composers
