Someone at some point once described classical music as soulless. Classical music is not soulless. It just doesn’t have a human soul. It has the soul of the forest, of a swarm of bees or a colony of ants. It sounds like a storm through a small seaside town or the migration from a forest fire. It’s usually reflective of the place it was written and I haven’t heard one yet that’s soulless. All music has a soul even if it’s not a human one.

#idk if I made this connection cause my introduction to classical music was fantasia and forest piano #rather than learning classical music and actually interacting with classical musicans #also I detest the elitism of many classical music audiences like fk them music is for all #music #mmyspamthoughts
