How to Listen to classical music 

Really great video in every aspect! Thank you. It's a shame RU-vid doesn't support channels like this one but I hope you keep doing your thing, I surely appreciate it!

I appreciate how u talk about a right way to listen, passive listening of classic music rly pisses me off, thank u for ur job)

It's very interesting the psychology of tastes, how our mind has to get used to new styles, of art for example, and then it can understand it and enjoy it

i call my abode the house of a thousand melodies: old disc and cylinder musical boxes, pre wwI player piano, roller organs, victrola phonograph for 78s and modern turntable for 33s. youtube provides rehearsal tracks for choir. i am officially crazy for analog.

Great video, thanks!

My major hurdle isn't that I have difficulty sitting and appreciating a classical piece. It's that I have a hard time selecting a recording I want to give my attention to. It's a problem of curation. Say I want to listen to Bruce Springsteen. I type his name into Spotify and I can listen to the exact recordings of his 1982 album Nebraska. Say instead I want to listen to a piece from Chopin, I type his name into Spotify and thousands of different recordings from hundreds of orchestras and conductors using different arrangements and recording equipment, and there's live or there's in studio... It's a boggling selection. For the lay person who just wants to jump in feet first, there's precious little direction. You may come across a song you like by Debussy or Bartok or Vivaldi, but have no idea if you're interested in other performances from the Orchestra you've listened to. I'm sure there must be trusted individuals in the field whose opinions are well-regarded and point the initiated in the direction of the best recordings and such... But that is incredibly opaque to the likes of the novice. I think the audience for classical music is much larger than people would assume. It just lacks a commonly accepted guided entry point. Something beginner friendly, clearly denoted, and even... Visually consistent.

Fantastic vid!

Great tips!

Different place than where I thought you were going to go, but cool.

Good video! Also you used Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto 1 which was the first concerto I was able to coherently follow along!

i love listening to it in ocncert halls and live and actively. of course i grew up playing the violin, was in the orchestra, played lots of great pieces, and also learned so many i did not get to play . i tis truly wonderful

Informative video. What's the title of the piece played at 4:40?

I listened to the whole of beethoven's 9th at my 4th attempt only. Watched Figarro in some 5 chunks.

Dang, this is a great video... Hope RU-vid decides to share this 😐🙏
