nganong wala namay maminaw ug Classical Music?

[gibra'al]

---

question, i-loudspeaker nimo sa office ninyo ts? ky gisungog man gud ka. don't you think that gesture alone is rude? because lahi2 man gud ug panlasa ang taw, and a person's choice of music does not define him/herself.

maminaw sab ko, but i don't feel the need for anyone to know.
besides, it's much more immersive if earphone kesa i-loudspeaker.
naa ra ko playlist. particularly mga violin concierto. paganini, tchaikovsky, bach etc.
pero maminaw pud kog EDM, pop, rap, OSTs ug uban pang genre except sa metal/sya-ok2 ky samok sa dunggan. miskan autotuned maminaw pud ko, basta nindot lng ang melody.


but i'm more into OST instrumentals (korean), most of which are inspired ra pud sa mga classicals.
labi na kanang paspas ug tempo.

I have to disagree with you...I believe classical music have a lot of exposure already, considering they exists for over 5 to 6 millenia already...they still do exists now especially in movies, though most people haven't realize it...imagine a horror movie without a background music, it becomes boring and less exciting than the ones with classical background music...

But I do agree with you when say that the younger generation, especially the millennials, have neglected it...probably because the younger generation are mostly visual thinkers that they need an image attached to the song just to like it...that's why music videos and gorgeous artists are popular these days...

I also disagree with you. Bangkilan was actually right. Existing for thousands of years doesn't mean it is popular as you think. In the Medieval Period, music/performing arts can only be seen or associated with the high society and not with the working class. It was mostly monophonic chants of 1-3 performers, mostly syllabic and mainly for gatherings be it for church and such noble parties. In the Renaissance, here the monophony mildly changed with contrasting harmonies and polyphony was created then later became a trend. String instruments took place but still, only a select few were skilled enough to play it and did it for the high society.

Then came Baroque, my favorite of them all, where diatonic melodies are fine tuned from various artist and performers. This is also the time where music was open to any society. However, playing an instrument needed proper education, let alone multiple instruments, that only the wealthy ones can afford to do. So, the lower classes had to make do with their resources and created versions of their own. They need not listen to whatever is playing inside the palaces coz they have their own. But, the lower classes' artistry did not transcend well for generations and died out eventually.

This is only as far as pop is concerned. Folklore/folksong comes from tribal traditions and sub-cultures. For eg, the Vikings and Celts can play certain instruments not included in the mainstream Germanic and Anglo-Saxon cultures. The Franks had their own. The Italics. The Balkans. The Slavic. The extinct Vandals. The Mongols. The Indo-Chinos. The Polynesians. The Arabs. The Canaanites. The Palestinians. The Ottomans. But their ethnicity and musical background had little significance to how the major pop culture evolved in the Middle Ages. The music scene during this time, I guess, was all about nobility. If one came from an upper-class family, chances are he/she will be exposed to literature, perfoming arts and entitlement, eg., knighthood for men and concubinage for women. People outside this circle are meager folks who wish they knew how to play the harp or a flute or to read musical notes or to dance. However, travelers/traders were often knowledgeable in literature due to the obvious fact that they immerse in varied cultures and sub-cultures from other places.

A couple hundred years more, Classical Period was born and then followed by the Romatic Period. This time, modality is the essence of every musical structure. For eg, an American composer has modes of American folk. A German has Germanic roots. But in general, these two subsequent periods transitioned into what now is known as 20th Century and in to the 21st. And as you can see, popularity was segmented and most instruments besides the strings were treated as appendages to musicians of differing tribes. Wars also influenced the popularity of local music coz the victors were always the game-changer.

TL;DR - Therefore, in the past, a mere farmworker or a blacksmith or a merchant or a temporary dweller has the possibility of dying without hearing a single popular song. And in modern analogy, those people are us. Some took the time to look deep into music however the majority do not. What's mainstream is considered the norm. A movie BGM is meant as a BGM and many, I mean, MANY people never thought of it as part of the 21st Century orchestral/classical music done by famous composers such as Joe Hisaishi, James Horner, Hans Zimmer, Marcin Przybyłowicz, Mikolai Stroinski et. al.
