Why are you wasting your life by listening to commercial garbage produced by sub 80 IQ, for midwits and normalfaggots, are you a masochist? Serious question.

Music has been shaped by artists, musicians, and composers who studied their predecessors, learning from both their successes and mistakes. This evolution spans over a thousand years, starting with early music, progressing through the Baroque period, and continuing into the Classical and Romantic eras, which were rich in artistic and cultural developments. These composers infused their own unique styles with those of their predecessors, producing some of the greatest music ever created. Yet, here you are on Spotify, listening to a mere fraction of Beethoven's Pathétique Sonata or any of his other Mid/Late works. So I ask you this simple question, why are you wasting you time by pretending to be dumb, ignorant sheep that is part of a controlled herd?

Music is part of all human experience. Like cooking. Not one group or culture. It's not particularly special.

Well you are not listening to classical, so maybe it's not for midwits after all.

Classical music is so evidently superior to all other kinds of music, yet we keep lowering the standards when we talk about other types of music, to avoid the uncomfortable situation where the butt rock dude or the druggy EDM boy gets anal pained when they are told the great masters are better than their shitty hedonistic hero.

Instead of white guilt, in the music world there is "classical" guilt. We keep lowering the standards for other kinds of music to compensate and preserve our dream of marxist culturalism. Of perfect musical relativism. Guess what? It isn't true and the compositional talent and imagination displayed, which is all that counts in the end when we have to say what is worth being saved and what not, is infinitely superior in classical music than in any other form of music.

If your shitty pop muzak is an 8 what the fuck are Beethoven's late string quartets? a 400? most music is barely a 1 to 3, the Beatles fall in here and so do most other popular music with very few exceptions that reach a 4, even a 5. Bartok string quartets would be a 6, 2 degrees of magnitude higher you have works by Brahms and other great masters. Then 9 and 10 are reserved for the highest achievements of human race like Beethoven's late string quartets or his Missa Solemnis or Mass in B minor by Bach or his Brandenburg Concertos.

Classical music is a different type of music then modern/contemporary music. I can't really compare the experience of Bach's Prelude No. 1 to Hendrix's Foxy Lady, because their goals and context are completely different. I enjoy both but I consider them separate mediums that just so happened use music

Prescriptivism or whatever aside, this image is extremely fucking dumb. If something can be literal or ironic, then to be unironic is to be literal. Nothing at all precludes a word that is un-something if a word that is opposite to that something. This argument is retarded and so are you.

No, not wrong. No one on this planet who isn't a tourist tastelet thinks Death and the Maiden is bad, in fact everyone knows it is one of the highest achievements of humanity. It is known.
