8 people here seem to be deaf.

Just shut the fuck up with your arguments and listen to the music. No one forced you to watch this.

[Irvinekinness]

this music is so good I can feel so many different emotion from different movement

[Piquet36]

To paraphrase Voltaire; the true achievement of an age is not measured by the deeds of its kings but by the creations of its artists. This music evokes the spirit of the Enlightenment like nothing else.

@sstuddert "Can you even read music?"

"And I don't care if you've been to a musicological convention, your argument is pathetic regardless."

"Such trifling and unimportant things distract only the most inconsequential of minds."

Listen to me very, VERY carefully. You are in a case of Intellectual Superiority Complex.

Bounce off will you? Shove your Ego elsewhere. Discussion with you is finished.

[sstuddert]

@fujianprince Are you truly concerned by the fact that Bach copied a basso continuo or that he didn't compose a march? Such trifling and unimportant things distract only the most inconsequential of minds.

Though I fear you have insulted the intelligence of anyone who is unfortunate enough to read through this failed attempt at discourse, I would be delighted to respond to you again should such a time come that you at last produce a valid argument.

but no sooner.

@sstuddert Arguing with an irrational "free thinker" who is heavily biased on Bach (and thinks that the "Common Practice period is supreme") is a waste of my time. Goodbye.

[sstuddert]

@fujianprince I use technical language on the presupposition that you understand it, if I try to "prove [my] intellectual superiority" (which I don't), at least I do so by producing an intelligent argument rather than by boasting my attendance at some convention.

As for Chopin's comment, it holds no weight in this argument because he didn't support his claim with evidence or reason.
