Hi.

It's me, the fellow Hungarian who visited your home recently. I will talk about it a bit since you can't see it anymore.

Yes, it is indeed a museum nowadays, it's in the same building as the old Music Academy (the other building of the Music Academy is one street away and has a big Liszt statue on it). You lived here while teaching and the curators of the museum tried to place your belongings as accurate (to the state when you lived there) as possible. They also get lot of your pianos back (one of your pianos is in the Hungarian National Museum, tho - that's the one what belonged to Beethoven before you). You can even buy small Liszt statues at the museum shop.

Next to your home, there's also a chamber music concert hall, sometimes I go there - I live near to the capital city, so your home is pretty easily visitable for me.

If you wanna look at some pictures, here's the museum's website. The texts in the museum are also both Hungarian and English.

If you accidentally get resurrected, come and stop by. People would be happy to see you.

Good evening, my dear.

Ah, how warm and comforting, to hear a fellow Hungarian speak about your own home! Thank you so very much.

If I ever resurrect I will visit my home once again, the Academy and then shake your hand.

Happy Valentine's Day to those who celebrate the holiday! While I was away at my robotics course, my mom baked oatmeal cranberry cookies (pictured above)! My dad also picked me up a new squishmallow! Her name is Aidy (pictured above). Isn't she so cute?

The cookies were delicious too, although I only ate one because I have dance. It merely looked strange to have one on the plate for a photo. I will eat another one tonight before bed with my snack I think.

[thecryptidcomposer]

Hi!! Do u have any recs for someone who knows practically nothing abt classical music? I've been studying music theory and I feel it's a good genre to learn from :)

sure thing! however, i just want to talk about two things beforehand.

first, classical music differs from other genres of music in that the recording matters. this is because different performers have different interpretations of the music, among other reasons. for this purpose, i have provided my recommendations for recordings with the pieces ill be listing, however i strongly encourage you to find what you like the most.

the second thing i want to talk about is basically me getting into semantics. there are a few different eras of classical music, and they are all stylistically different. the main eras are the baroque era (~1600-1750), the classical era (~1750-1830), the romantic era (~1830-1920), and post-romantic/contemporary classical (~1920-present). i just want to point this out because the stylistic contrast between these eras is quite pronounced, and will help explain some things.

and with my ramblings out of the way, here are my recs!

Baroque:

Antonio Vivaldi - La Folia (Op. 1 No. 12) (Il Giardino Armonico [ensemble])

Johann Sebastian Bach - The Art Of Fugue (BWV 1080) (Joanna MacGregor [pfte.])

Moritz Moszkowski - Piano Concerto in E Major (Op. 59) (Markus Pawlik [pfte.], Antoni Wit [cond.] w/ Polish National Radio Symphony Orchestra)

Igor Stravinsky - The Rite of Spring (Leonard Bernstein [cond.] w/ New York Philharmonic Orchestra) * **

Dmitri Shostakovich - Symphony No. 5 (Op. 47) (Yevgeny Mravinsky [cond.] w/ Leningrad Philharmonic Orchestra) **

Alfred Schnittke - Concerto Grosso No. 1 (Gidon Kremer [vln.], Tatiana Grindenko [vln.], Heinrich Schiff [cond.] w/ Chamber Orchestra of Europe) *

Alberto Ginastera - Piano Sonata No. 1 (Terence Judd [pfte.]) *

Maurice Ravel - Introduction and Allegro, for Harp, Flute, Clarinet, and String Quartet (Skaila Kanga [hrp.], Academy of St. Martin in the fields)

* - this piece is fuckin SPICY. you have been warned.

** - if you're interesting in music history you should look up the backgrounds surrounding these ones

*** - the recording quality is shit

so yeah. i prefer more modern music so i put quite a few more modern works on the list than most people would.

anyways, happy listening!

Camille Saint-Saëns

Paris’s writers and painters were not the only ones in the mid-1880s to feel the pull and tug between the new and the old—or the new and the newer. A certain amount of tension was beginning to emerge within the city’s musical community as well, with the imposing figure of Camille Saint-Saëns standing firmly in the path of whatever threatened tradition.

A brilliant man and a Parisian from birth, Camille Saint-Saëns had been one of the most remarkable child prodigies of his — or any— era. He began piano lessons at the age of two and composed his first piano piece at the age of three. He learned to read and write at a dismayingly young age and then proceeded to vanquish Latin by the age of seven. His first drawing-room recital, at age four, found him confidently playing Beethoven, while his first public concert (in the Salle Pleyel, no less) came at the age of ten.

His prodigious achievements continued through his years at the Paris Conservatory, where he wrote his first symphony. Franz Liszt became a friend and admirer, and Hector Berlioz, another friend and enthusiast, called him “one of the leading musicians of our time.” Disappointingly, Saint-Saëns failed on two occasions to win the Prix de Rome, but the first time it was because he was too young, and the second, because his head-spinning talents seem to have attracted professional jealousy.

One might expect some slowing down as he grew older, but as an adult, Saint-Saëns continued to dazzle. In addition to turning out symphonies, concertos, operas, chamber music, choral works, and compositions for the piano and the organ, he held down the demanding job of organist at the Church of the Madeleine, where he earned the reputation of being among the finest organ virtuosos of the time. With energy and brilliance to spare, he toured as a concert pianist, conducted, and studied geology, archaeology, botany, astronomy, and (no surprise for a musician) mathematics. Later in life he would continue to amaze by his scholarly knowledge of subjects ranging from literature and the theater to philosophy, acoustics, and ancient musical instruments. He wrote poetry and drama, mastered several languages, and by the time of the Franco-Prussian War, he was a veritable national treasure (and by 1881, one of the Academy’s confirmed Immortals).

It was in the wake of the Commune, as Paris was trying to revive itself, that Saint-Saëns helped found the Société Nationale de Musique, with the goal of promoting young French composers —a goal that had a forward-sounding ring. But the vastly cultured Saint-Saëns had little patience with new ideas, at least musically speaking. As the organization’s copresident, he shaped the direction of French music according to his own tastes, which were unquestionably traditional. Indeed, when Debussy’s music became better known, Saint-Saëns would become a severe critic —warning his colleagues that “we must at all costs bar the door of the Institute against a man capable of such atrocities, fit to be placed beside Cubist paintings.’”

Not that anyone, let alone the great Saint-Saëns, had yet heard of Debussy. But at least fate was about to deal the younger man an unexpected favor. Camille Saint-Saëns, who in 1886 debuted what would become one of his most beloved works, the Carnival of the Animals, ran into trouble that same year at the Société, where he was maneuvered out of his long-held leadership post. His main rival within the organization, the composer Vincent d’Indy, engineered the coup and succeeded in putting César Franck in his place (although d’Indy would hold the reins, as secretary). D’Indy was an aristocrat and a royalist, but despite some notable right-wing proclivities managed to produce pupils such as Erik Satie, Arthur Honegger, and Darius Milhaud. And although he had little in common with Debussy, d’Indy would prove to be a reliable champion of music by young French composers, even when he didn’t like what they wrote. Debussy was fortunate, for in this capacity d’Indy would become one of his first supporters.

Walking around Budapest, it’s always exciting to imagine the city as it was in its heyday in the late 19th century. For many years, the Matild Palace, guarding the entrance to Elizabeth Bridge with its twin sister, the Klotild, was caked in grime. More recently, it has been festooned in planks and scaffolding, as a painstaking renovation unfolded. Now the Matild Palace is not only a five-star hotel in the Marriott Luxury Collection series but a restaurant, cabaret and sky bar. The atmosphere and image of Pest in the late 1800s were completely changed by the construction of Elizabeth Bridge, and many buildings were demolished. Of the plots left vacant in the 1880s, the two most valuable were bought by the wife of Archduke Joseph Karl, Princess Clotilde, who envisaged elegant palaces standing at the gates of the future bridge. With this in mind, the commission was given to two young, talented architects of the day who had already shown their advance thinking in the design of the New York Palace.The eclectic Klotild and Matild Palaces, which rise like a graceful princess on either side of the road, were designed by Flóris Korb and Kálmán Giergl, the same duo later behind Franz Liszt Music Academy. The most famous craftsmen of the period also worked on the building, namely the renowned trinity of Zsolnay, Gyula Jungfer and Miksa Róth, masters of ceramics, wrought iron and stained glass respectively.The architects quickly built the two mirror-symmetrical palaces in three years, a major feat, especially because they were experimenting with the novelty of an iron structure, The building was so innovative, in fact, that lifts were installed for the first time in Budapest.Business premises, associations and companies were located on the ground floor and mezzanine level of the southern palace, while rented apartments were located on the upper floors. The 48-metre-high corner towers were immediately distinctive. The Habsburgs had three Mathildes: a medieval Bavarian princess, another who set herself alight with a cigarette at the age of 19, and the ninth child of Buda-born Marie Valerie, but there is no evidence that they named the southern building because of any specific one of them.

William Hanna and Joseph Barbera: "The Cat Concerto" (1947)

Tom and Jerry are one of those classic beloved animated series, it had its debut in 1940 and became one of the most popular and enduring animated franchises. The series made its debut with the film “Puss gets the boot” in 1940, by MGM studios, to this point the characters still hadn’t earned their names as Tom and Jerry, which they got until 1941 in their second cartoon, titled “The midnight snack”. The series received several Academy Awards for Short film during the 1940s and 1950s, they won seven Oscars in total, and today we are talking about one of those winners, “The cat concerto.”

This series of animations, as well as others made by the same studio, followed a similar pattern in their animation style as others in the era, they went through the storyboard process, character design and layouts, then hand drawing animations on cells, ink and painting, then they would photograph frame by frame and edit them together to create the final film, to end this process they would add the background music and sound effects and voices if needed, this to add the characteristic gags and humor of this series. In this case the short contains the piece Hungarian Rhapsody No.2 by Franz Liszt’s.

The short depicts Tom, a pianist in this case, about to start a concert, he sits and starts playing the piano, while he plays, we see that Jerry has mounted his house inside the instrument, so he begins to be disturbed by the movement the strings make, beginning the classic cat and mouse gag they were so known for, Jerry continues bothering and messing up Tom’s performance while Tom tries to catch him, including various gags and physical humor classic to this animations, in the end, after bothering him Tom ends up getting too tired trying to catch up with the peace after Jerry took control of the piano, so he collapses and the audience applauds Jerry, who is now wearing a dinner jacket.

I found about this animation due to the controversy it had with a very similar cartoon made by Warner Bros, in which Bugs Bunny appears playing the same song and having the same kind of gags, where a mouse appears and disturbs him while he tries to play the piano, I did a lot of research about this but couldn’t really find anything certain about it, it centers primarily around the release dates of this two animations, “Rhapsody Rabbit” was released in 1946, while “The Cat Concerto” was released a year later, so a lot of people assumed this one copied the other, but release dates aren’t all in the animation industry, because we need to have in consideration production and concept, in this case “The Cat Concerto” started production first. So it seems that it was just a big coincidence, because even if the idea is the same the gags and order of things are slightly similar, I really wanted to look more into this but each website has a different theory and no one can give me an exact answer, there’s a theory that technicolor sent the first animation to the wrong studio and that’s how it got plagiarized, but it’s still a theory that I couldn’t confirm.

This short was shown in the Academy Awards and won best animated short film in 1947, it had a pretty good impact and regarding the controversy is still very oved by the fans of Tom and Jerry, and I really liked it, I found in on YouTube and fell into a rabbit hole of the whole which one came first, its really sad that I couldn’t find a certain answer. But regarding of this it remains a pretty fun and classic Tom and Jerry cartoon.

Budapest: Franz Liszt (22 October 1811 – 31 July 1886) was a Hungarian composer, virtuoso pianist, conductor, and teacher of the Romantic period. He was the equivalent of a rock star in his own time. With a diverse body of work spanning more than six decades, he is considered to be one of the most prolific and influential composers of his era and remains one of the most popular composers in modern concert piano repertoire. This afternoon we had an excellent tour of the music academy named for him.

https://rumble.com/embed/v2n4w38/?pub=14hjof

György Cziffra ( Budapest , November 5 , 1921 – Longpont-sur-Orge , France , January 15 , 1994 ) was a pianist Hungarian. In 1968 he became French , adopting the name Georges Cziffra . He is considered one of the best pianists of the 20th century . Son of a gypsy family, his father played in cabarets and restaurants in Paris in 1910 . At the age of five he was already improvising popular tunes in bars and circuses. At the age of nine he was accepted at the Franz Liszt Academy in Budapest, where he studied, among others, with Ernest von Dohnányi . He made his first concert tours at the age of 16. He took part in World War II and was taken prisoner, which is why he could not finish his musical studies. After the war he made a living as a jazz pianist in bars and night clubs. He tried to escape from Hungary which was under the yoke of the Soviet Union , which led him to spend three years in labor camps (1950-1953). In 1956, he won the Franz Liszt prize, a fact that helped him boost his career. The same year, he fled with his wife and their son to Vienna , where he gave a recital that would open the doors of Paris and London . His fame was favored by numerous performances, also in the United States . In 1975, he created the Cziffra Foundation, to support young artists. The French thanked him for his commitment to the creation of a piano competition with his name. After the accidental death of her son in 1981, Cziffra appeared even more rarely in public. Cziffra died in Senlis (France) at the age of 72, of a myocardial infarction resulting from a series of complications also due to lung cancer. The composers he preferably interpreted were, mainly due to his excellent technique, Franz Liszt , Frédéric Chopin and Robert Schumann . A good example of his skill is his interpretation of Grand Galop Chromatique Liszt's . His arrangements for piano also belong to the most difficult works in piano literature.
