HOLY CARP!!!

All those pimply teenagers should throw away their angry rock music, hateful rap music, depressing emo music. Why listen to such angry stuff? Let's all be happy! Let's listen to some lovely classical music, which is so morally superior to all that depressing popular carp! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNPOZdztCP0 ![]() |

That's great, Sam. Frankly, Richter could be playing the devil's own dance and I'd listen. And the Shostakovich was powerful as well. Big Al |

Another "classic" that fits to this thread: Classical music is so natural, whereas techno is machine-like. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6AhHBu_A_U |

ZOOOOOM!
|
:lol: I'm not a fan of the "angry crap" either, but maybe stuff like this is a good way to introduce people who do to classical music? |

Somehow, I feel that there's a bit, just a bit, of disquiet in that music that makes it not something you'd want to listen to at diner. Here's a better example. |

Hi PianoJerome I never really got a chance to say hi to you. I admire your playing and I agree with your opinion of hateful deathmetal and angry rap. You asked why do kids listen to this? To piss off and shock their parents. Used to be just plain old rock and roll would freak them out, then it took heavy metal, punk rock, and thrash. In my day kids were getting mohawks and coloring their hair orange. When I was in college, HS kids were into the "Goth" look...like cadavers. Now its splash and crash bloody video games, body piercing, and yes....the lamest music spewing angst and stupid ideas. It's teenage rebellion in 2007. |

Hi Free Rider,![]() I was being a little sarcastic. How can I complain about other people listening to angry popular music when I listen to angry classical music? I certainly don't listen to Prokofiev and Shostakovich out of rebellion, to shock my parents... |

Do you listen to any pop music? Or are you strictly a classical music listener? What's a classical guy like you doin' in a place like this? :lol: |

Quite impressive, especially for a 16yo. Amazing speed. However, in the difficult parts her playing is not very clear anymore. Amazing, but not a match for Argerich's legendary recording. |
