Is there a fan of Mahler who can make a music appreciation guide?Mahler has 9 Symphonies and more than 20 art songs. How do you listen to them step by step?. In September 4th, I heard the scene of "Resurrection". Frankly speaking, I didn't quite understand it.
First of all, make sure, I'm not a professional, but amateurs, talk about superficial views for reference. Mahler's music seems to be more difficult, there are some music that philosophers like Bach, Mozart, what is the pure music, unlike Mendelsohn, Chopin romantic beautiful delicate, unlike Beethoven labeled hero, struggles with fate label, introspection and rational thinking is not the same as Brahms.
Mahler's teacher seems to be Brukner, Brukner is a loyal supporter of Wagner, Brukner's music is more inclined to religion and divinity. To understand Mahler, you can look at the course of his life, such as early poverty, discrimination against the Jews, the child died, Mrs unfaithful to husband and, in addition, can see some professional music reviews, there is to see the symphony itself chapters and so on. As for the order, I don't feel very important. I listened to symphony ninth (the song of the earth, actually tenth), and then listened and watched in the order of the first Titan and the second Resurrection
I don't know it myself, of course, after listening to it, I will listen to it a lot again. Classical music especially symphonic music everyone understand feelings are not the same, there should be three aspects, one is the composer composer itself is a feeling, two is a command, and a band interpretation of feelings, such as Karajan and Abbado as the conductor of the Berlin Philharmonic, the feeling is not the same, terminal, feelings and understanding the audience, different professional backgrounds, different life experiences, and even the same person in different stages of life, different mental state, listen to the feelings are not the same. Finally, Liu Xie was quoted in a word: View thousand swords then knows, listen to one thousand and then xiaoyin. Learn more professional knowledge, listen more, feel more, and gradually will feel.
