TRANCE vs CLASSICAL

I listen to alot of different types of music for various reasons like many. Music from every genre gives you the listener a certain feeling for many moods you may be in from day to day.
Some of the classical music I enjoy like Tchaikovsky and Vivaldi tell a story without words and bring emotion to the listener much like TRANCE. I would have to believe that todays TRANCE is the CLASSICAL music of today. If you have ever listened to Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto No.1 you will get the same highs and lows you get with TRANCE. With the creative styles of TRANCE artists around the world I think that one day a story could be told from an album and brought to stage like the Nutcracker and Swan Lake.
Just my take on why I enjoy TRANCE so much! |

Not really, no. Classical has many different parts, trance does not.
Just because some trance breakdowns use classical elements in them doesn't make it classical of today. |

| I wonder if people had the notion of cheese, commercial, underground, etc. back in the day. Say in 1700s? |

Thats one of the reasons i like trance too , its realy easy to combine classical melodys.. and probubly the closest modern genre to classical music.
But still, so less complex.. just one repeating melody.. u cant compare the two .. i dont think there is any modern music that can be compared to classical when it comes to melodys..
its actually sad that music became dumber :\ |

Some trance does, actually. Goa and psy producers regularly explore three or more themes per song. Indeed, many trance tracks have at least two themes that never overlap.
Making this comparison is very cumbersome, though, do to the imprecise definition of "classical" (that is, unless you mean Classical, as in the specific subgroup of the oft-confused classical). There are many styles of music that constitute classical, and they all differ from one another in their own ways. |

Yes, but that kind of stuff is still a minority.
Edit:
And psy/goa is very far away from classical even when it does have multiple parts. |

| As much as I would like to compare the two there really is no comparison, Mozart still owns any trance producer. |

| lol I wonder if people in high society talk about Mozart, Bach, Strauss, and Beethoven like we talk about PvD, Ferry, Tiesto, and Armin. |

The thing is, that people who really are music geniouses today they create classical music, not Trance.
The complexity in classical music is NOT, and will probably never, be met (even halfway) by the complexity in Trance-music. (EDIT: I mean the other way around, I think :S What I meant is that Trance is MUCH less complex than classical music.)
Though, there are other drives in Trance than just musical notes, which classical music is mostly. Trance is more about the exploration of sound, not acctual music. But it's still not the classical music of today. One day though, it might as well be. But not today. |
