What effect did the Art Nouveau holds 20 c. classical music and composers influenced AN mvmt.?
I am attempting to enter classical music and I'm hard to find something I like. Most of what I've heard it tends to come across too "academic" – Frivilous display art without underlying expression or reflection of the complexity of emotion. On the other hand, picture soundtracks are the opposite of me, silly and melodramatic – or insincere. I think the visual works of art Nouveau mvmt. strike a balance between the powerful head and heart that I am the hope of discovering the classical music. At this point, I'd love suggestions even if a specific job or too shows the same sensibility that these artists were smart. Do you know specific pieces of musicians that influenced this mvmt in visual art. Or gifted composers who were contemporaries came to the mvmt or shortly thereafter? 2 to art nouveau, I love the Italian Renaissance. The same question … that there are works by Bach and Mozart / Beethoven like me?
As far as I know, the Art Nouveau was no influence on classical music, but there were innovative and well-known composers in the final of the C 19th and early 20th C. Claude Debussy (1862-1918), who composed Clair de Lune among other pieces. Maurice Ravel (1875-1937) – Bolero, La Valse. Rachmaninoff (1873-1943) Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini "- 18 is the change (1841-1904) most famous of Dvorak's Ninth Symphony "From the New World" (as mentioned by others) is excellent. A little earlier the Russians are – Mussorgsky (1839-1881) (Pictures at an Exhibition, Night on the bare mountain), Rimsky-Korsakov (1844-1908) (Scheherazade) Tchaikovsky (1840-1893) – 1812 Overture, Nutcracker, first concert Piano etc. As for more "rational" to music, try Stravinsky (1882-1971) "Rite of Spring, which caused a revolt in 1913 when premiered, Firebird, Petrushka, Apollo. I also like the Violin Concerto and Symphony in Three Movements. Another composer 20th C. Prokofiev, who wrote – among others – Music from the film Alexander Nevsky Eisenstein and Ivan the Terrible. Try his first symphony, or ballet Romeo and Juliet and Cinderella to the "Big 3" – Bach, Beethoven and Brahms – try Bach (1685-1750) – the Brandenburg Concertos. Beethoven – Fifth Symphony and the Ninth Symphony – The Coral – here is a link to the poem Schiller that Beethoven originally adapted for the movement of the Fourth Sym ninth. http://www.raptusassociation.org/ode1785.html) Toscanini recordings I like best. Sonata Claro moon (for piano) is another favorite and was used by Alicia Keyes in his first album. Brahms – treat first Frederic Chopin waltzes (1810-1849) is another of my favorites. Fantasie Impromptu test. Mendelssohn (1809-1849) "Overture to Midsummer Night's Dream" is a real pleasure. As for Renaissance music, you may have to go to the sites of early music – I have old vinyl albums but most are English Renaissance with a little Spanish and French. I do not explore this music first. But you might like C. composer Joaquin Rodrigo "20th FOR A gentleman Fantasy, for guitar and orchestra", which is based on themes of the Renaissance. OK, I love classical music. Do not know what you've heard already, so I dont know what to tell you to try first. When I was young, I began with Rimsky Korsakov Scheherazade and Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker suite. But if you want something more sophisticated and if you like guitar music, try Rodrigo. Get a recording with Romero. Plus Amazon, etc, if you need to find a classical recording deal with the Musical Heritage Society: http://www.musicalheritage.com/cgi-bin/mhs I hope you come to love classical music eventually, but it might take a little trial and error.
