My dear Ryan,
How dare you attempt to compare classical music with the likes of progressive? Undoubtedly, both have meter, both have harmonies (though progressive tends to be somewhat limited in this respect, and I use the term LIMITED rather loosely) and both can be categorized under the heading of music. However, the only comparison which can be made is purely on a basic structural level.
You claim that creativity and originality bonds these two genres together. Isn't the true definition of "music," organized sound? Therefore, any genre of music can be tied with progressive by this claim.
Which post-modern classical works are you citing which do not rely on patterns, harmonic layers and melodic themes? These are present in all types of music, from classical to hip hop. Even in the present day minimalist movement, all these aspects of music exist.
The repetitive melodic lines of progressive, which consist of only several notes, cannot be compared to the melodies found in classical music. I'm sure that any scholar will back me up on this. The rhythms, if you dictated them onto a sheet of paper, would be found to be extremely simple and once again REPETITIVE.
Please reply Ryan, with an example from the progressive repertoire, a theme that is so beautifully used as in the Rococo Variations for Cello by Tschaikovsky. Thanks.
P.S. Your lack of elementary theoretical knowledge leads me to question your alleged 13 years spent playing the bazooka. It is my opinion that the institution/s which you attended should refund you your hard earned money.
P.S, I've been trying to respond to your post, but in doing so I realized that I didn't really understand what you were trying to say. Enlighten me please? |
