Highest form of culture in the form of music?

What music represents the height of European culture? Is it Baroque and the religiously inspired like Bach, or is it more the Classics and Romantics like Beethoven and Wagner?

How about some men only? Nobody wants to hear those cunts ruining the music with their impure satan souls.

I was joking nigger, stay mad. Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninoff are fantastic, the former being the Eastern European Beethoven in my opinion.

I played the piano from a young age and later learnt to play guitar, I was never into classical music
(MUH REPERTOIRE), from the very beginning I wanted to just play pop/rock/jazz/ragtimes because classical was just too boring. Chopin is massively overrated, Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata and some Bach are all I can listen to, but classical music is mostly a meme

Doesn't matter. White men haven't defended their culture or their countries. By 2100 whites will be gone and as soon as that happens Jews will rewrite history and take credit for everything we did; you know it's true and I don't care about your emotions. We'll be talked about in hushed tribal stories and fairytales for a few hundred years and then even those will disappear.

If you cared about white culture you should have defended it by creating high quality mass media and then monetizing it--instead of taking the path of least resistance by flooding into powerless and irrelevant trades job with your peers the Mexicans and browns. But hey, you make $80k a year with a highschool education, right? I'm sure that will be fine for a few more decades--until it isn't. A trap is being set for us all and we're walking right into it.

Future you chose really. Pic related. The culture white people now worship because white men failed to defend their race.

The Fall

>I never listen to any Mozart. What's the deal with Mozart?
If you really want to know, try listening to some Mozart.

mozart was the pinnacle, but all of it is good

music (like all art) represents the degree to which a society has achieved grace. When you appreciate music you aren't just appreciating the beauty of the music, you are subconsciously appreciating the ability for a society to create it.

Classical is based on folk music, elevated by the theoretical and practical study advanced society sustains

what an idiot. maybe you will grow up some day. i blame society for failing you.

Wagner.

Can't go wrong with Baroque, Classical, or Romantic. Anything after romantic is degenerate, with few exceptions.
>baroque refined renaissance music and propelled western music well beyond anything any other civilization had ever dreamed of
>classical embodies supreme, scientific order in music
>romantic music took the classical formula and added evocative components to bring forth great emotions, especially so for the purpose of telling a story
I'm highly biased towards Romantic, since I feel it can be used to actualize the human experience most effectively and completely. You really can't go wrong with anything pre-Modernist, though. Monteverdi will forever be my nigga.

Dropping some post Romantic pieces I like even though I mostly agree with you.

I don't think of Strauss as Modernist, I only think of him as a late Romantic. But he's definitely great. I think (traditional compositional) musical thought peaked around the turn of the 20th century with the last of the Romantics. Dvorak is definitely my favorite. Almost everything after that comes across as a commercialized, pop-Romantic piece or an exercise in "pushing the envelope" musically. I'll admit, I like some of it, and have a soft spot for Lutoslawski, but it cannot hold a candle to what came before it. Very, very little Modernist and Post-Modernist music feels like the monumental human achievement that it should feel like if it was truly following in the path of the great composers before it.

I don't know if you know anything about Spengler, but I think it's telling that we have much wider access to instruments and ability to produce with the advent and introduction of all sorts of new technology, but we don't come close at all to capturing the soul like we did in the past.

The decay of Western Civilization has made that clearer by the day, we've suppressed that spark of the divine and we don't know how to regain it. This shows through in everything.
Glad you made this thread, OP. Good to know there are others out there who have similar values and interests. Music really speaks to people, so a resurgence in sublime music might give us that spark again. To quote Kierkegaard, music "continually flows throughout immediacy", which explains why it's so powerful in our lives. It's truly the highest art form, and probably the greatest cultural hallmark of all. Let's never lose it.

Well said

I only listen to folk music and Chopin
everything else sucks
Especially the music that comes out of America

Now that's some god awful music
