i wonder....

i've always wondered.... if musical geniuses like mozart and beethoven and stuff were born today, and we gave them a drum machine and a good synth, what kind of trance music would they make? i bet it'd en OWN anything out there... too bad they were born 300 years ago and are stone dead now...

just some thoughts...

I have ALWAYS thought that trance was the classical music of today. Classical music is the only music that embodies the sort of emotion and passion that trance conveys. I would give a limb for a tiesto remix of Moonlight Sonata.

Yeah, that's the point. It's like: not everyone understands classical music, such as trance music. IMO trance is the music for intelligent people. That's why it will never be very commercial. And it's VERY good.

I think the great classic genuis will never be able to play trance , as they are born into what they like . would you think paul van dyk could sing at an opera and have ferry and digweed in the choir ??

I totally agree with this topic. The many layers of synths are comparable to orchestral music, where all the different instruments produce a good noise.

Trance producers also take leaves from classical composers books too. Look at Magik Journey, Dido, Willow, and stuffwith classical influences1. Those tunes are generally amazing cos of those ideas!!!

wow.... word to all the replies... i love classical music too. i also really like any orchestral sounding trance music, anything with really good string samples like, darren tate - pulse... sounds almost like a real orchestra.

i really LOVE the breakdown of, svenson & gielen - we know what you did. the cello sounding thing sounds GREAT.

i've always wondered what it'd be like if you played a trance song using all acoustic instruments.... i think it'd be way cool to enjoy some trance music at roy thomson hall (home of the toronto symphony orchestra, for the non-torontonians, =P) or some crap, with some trance producer as the conductor. some people think i'm nuts though, =P....

let's clone mozart and make him produce trance music...

Yeah. I agree. Quite a lot of dance music is variation on a theme, with more sounds added to the theme as it develops - just like classical music.

I used to play in a large classical concert band back in high school and loved it! (We won many music awards and they have a loooong history).
Then I'd loose myself in the music room during breaks, lunch and after school to play with the drum machines, sequencer, DX21 and DX7 (Synths) for hours on end. (Why oh why did I ever stop!? :sadgreen: )

Philhormonic film scores are also a passion of mine.

Trance was an easy progression for me....

I guess that's why I'm a sucker for piano in a trance tune.
