POLL: Bach vs. Mozart vs. Beethoven: Preferred Piano Music

A simple poll putting in the “big three” classical composers.

Pick the one whose PIANO works are your most preferred.

    1. J. S. Bach
    1. W. A. Mozart
    1. L. V. Beethoven

You may also leave a comment as to why you chose that composer.

My choice: J.S. Bach.
Reason: I just like Baroque keyboard works, the dryness of it yet the emotionality behind it. And the intellectual appeal. Bach is basically just a win-win type of composer.

(2nd Choice: Beethoven - Most overtly emotional, but sometimes too heavy and grungy; 3rd Choice: Mozart - Elegant and beautiful but can get kind of boring and repetitive, like a lot of pop music.)

If da :nigga: duznt win diz I vil be very zhocked

BEETHOVEN by a mile.

Especially since Bach didn’t write any PIANO works

Yes but hey, they are played on piano!

Overall (non-piano) I’d take Bach, because nothing matches the pre-existential intensity of Bach’s solo violin G minor Sonata (Grumiaux).

For piano, probably Bach too. Too many amazing works.

'Twas an embellishment.

Theoretically my studies could be stopped, but that doesn’t mean I’ll stop putting them out there!

I’m going to hound this forum. Hound it with surveys of the like. The world is a competition, piano is competition - that is why there are piano competitions. It is about a ladder of art. So it makes sense to uncover the truths of this unfortunate reality.

The education you provide will be worthwhile to the future of music, rest assured!

Be careful, ma brotha. U iz playing wiz fire n may be subject to our loving reeducation plan

My work is in the name of the light.

If I be martyred by it, so be it! Let the rebels rise up and overthrow your totalitarian tyranny.

And not in the name of state values n da common good??!!

Ok, I iz out before da state deems me unfit fo society.

But your state value is virtuosity right? Speed demondom? My research ought to contribute to the ingredients of this ubermensch aspiration.

Dat iz a question fo an SDC admin party official

I’m out.

I work for the light.

Stop calling this bullshit ‘research’ - you’re devaluing the term.

It isn’t really formal research, just easy to access knowledge for people like myself.
