This was embarrassing.

What a fucking goof сука. I was just waiting for him to tell him he is also a vegan crossfitter. It is quite disconcerting when some people talk to elders as if they were babies.

 

[Wadtucket]

The oboist here has the look of a GOAT. He handles that long, hard, pipe like a true master of blowing wad

That cembalo is quite neat as well. You can tell that it's a neat instrument because of the way it is.

 

[Wadtucket]

Blew my wad at this piano version of the GOAT's partita in D minor for solo violin. That Steinway blows that tomato can fiddle out of the water. Lisitsa is doing a very emotional Busoniesque version of this piece which is fine for a chaconne. If a GOAT fugue was played like this I would withhold my wad though.

 

[Rex Kwon Do]

Not too crazy about the lute being used in an orchestral setting--it's not powerful enough to hang, sonically--but this is a really nice composition.

 

[DiogenesOfSinope]

Nice thread.

Was actually playing a little Bach-Busoni on my electric piano today. BWV 998, to be exact.

Fuck yea, I love me some adagio on the weekend!



Great work from Elgar, and excellent performance by Sol here.
Sospiri = the Italian word for "Sighs".

Check out this old vihuela from the late 17th century. Still sounds great. It's a cool little instrument: looks like a guitar but it is actually more like a lute. Check out Lislevand's right-hand, you'll see he even plays it like a lute where the hand is almost parallel to the strings and the thumb often dips down lower than the index finger, kind of like the thumb and index are two sides of a single plectrum.

Chiptune contrapuncti are oddly satisfying. GOAT fugues composer.

 

[Rex Kwon Do]

This is a really nice piece played on vihuela by a hot Polish chick.

Give this a listen. After that subdued, peaceful intro you're going to blow your wad around 1:21.

 

[Rex Kwon Do]

A GOATly rendition of a Beethoven classic. Whether Walter or Wendy Carlos at this point, I'm a fan of he/she.

Not sure what I think of that rendition, but I did see my local symphony perform Pictures at an Exhibition a few months back, and it was glorious.
