| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @stuartk Before Western religion dominated the west, the Greeks and probably others used to have Dionysian rituals which included music and sex. And now that you mention it, I think that is one of the problems I have with the "classical" period ... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @frogman Yes. People get locked into other endeavors also. A pitcher pitches a perfect game. A basketball player scores 40+ points. When I was teaching poetry, that was the hardest thing to teach. How to get locked into a poem so that you're no... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @stuartk I’m posting the first movement of Weinberg’s 21st Symphony conducted by Mirga Grazinyte-Tyla. I think he is a modern composer that has enough traditional groundings that he might resonate with you. It’s called Kaddish. https://www.you... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @mahgister How did you rid yourself of the need to test your system? I hate when I'm listening to music and rather than enjoying the music listen to one piece of equipment or the other. How did you rid yourself? | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @frogman I agree with you on all counts, especially AI versus human creativity. And thank you for the information on the 60,000-year-old Neanderthal flute, with a diatonic scale no less! I had either not heard of it or forgotten that I had heard... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @stuartk That Lacrimosa must have been transcribed for the piano. Here is Karl Bohm conducting it. You might like this better. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fNs2J9U_W4 | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries Regarding the aliens theory, there is a fascinating documentary streaming called "Ancient Apocalypse." The theorist has done a lot of research, sailing around the world for evidence. I enjoyed his theory. | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries Everybody's best guess. I've spent many years doing research to shape mine, but it's no more true than anyone else's. No observers wrote down anything about upper Paleolithic people.Best we know about music, I think, is the horn flute that is 43,0... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries I don't think AI can produce "real" art until it has a sense of mortality, love, loss, hearbreak, and a number of other very human emotions that art comes from. I don't think what we consider art came along until we were considered to be Homos sp... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @mahgister Great! We agree. I'm listening to Cassandra Wilson. If you're not familiar with her, you might give her a try. Perhaps the greatest living jazz singer. | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @larsman @mahgister Prior to my research into the ancient past, I would have agreed with @larsman about the soul. Something like a deep and abiding conscience, which not all people have. Christianity would say, I think, that everybody is born w... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @mahgister @larsman I think maybe we should try to define "soul" and "spiritual depth," especially regarding music. I have some very definite and unusual ideas, so I won't begin. They would throw us into a different solar system. But I will go a... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @larsman I agree that everybody has their own musical taste. And I think it's all good because music of all types "soothes the soul." | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @mahgister I don't have time to read all the books you throw out. I'm writing and researching a novel. But inherent in what you say, it seems to me, that you believe that your experience of music is at a "higher" level than others. "For sure w... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @mahgister I agree with you that music can have deep spiritual meaning. I don't agree, however, that for me all music, whether I enjoy it for beauty or melody or just for fun, must have spiritual depth underneath. Since it just seems to be you a... |
