This is lovely in melody but I'm still disturbed at what contemporary taste does to classical music by bringing it down to a basic two chord progression.
The moment I heard the drums I knew what I was in for - repetitive meandering on a "catchy" song. And I would absolutely LOVE it if my favorite virtuoso violinists had accompanied percussion (the end result would probably be more along a chaotic form of math rock lol) but it just doesn't do these instruments justice in exploration.

In this video I used Johann Bach's classical piece "The Art of Fugue, BWV1080: Contrapunctus 14a: Canon per Augmentationem in contrario motu" (sorry for the long song title, folks!!!). The video itself is quotes I've taken from the book "A Christian Directory" by the Puritan Richard Baxter regarding "Obedience To God".

Your song is fantastic but what I meant was that there was hardly any movement in the song Simona posted. While restricting itself to two basic chords, it relied on boring, uninspired harmonies of the most generic kind; the modern, pop kind o_o
No offense to anyone btw!
I think the age old art of argument is quite fruitful when used properly and hold no ill feelings towards anyone I argue with

totally awesome!!! LOVE this piece by Handel. It's one of my favorite pieces. I've actually sung it before in a professional choir. I've sung professionally, and I have to say that this was one of the most gratifying pieces of music to sing in a group. I sang the 1st Soprano part (the highest parts you can hear).
I also like Claire De Lune by Claude Debussy. (he's my fave composer and I walked down the aisle to Clare De Lune). also, I like the 13th variation of rhapsody on a theme of Paganini by Sergei Rachmaninov is a great piece as well. Look it up! Thanks for creating this thread!!!!

. I agree that the rhythm based on the "two chord repetition" can become annoying. However, I love the song because it is very simple and naive (it goes well with the drawings - that remind me of the writer of my childhood, Roald Dahl) and I do not mind the pop influence. Maybe you will enjoy this one

maybe my favorite - & promise i'll lay off the Messiaen now -
Apparition de l'église éternelle
(Appearance of the Eternal Church)
composed in 1932. no idea who is performing or where in the vid.
no recording of organ music does it justice, in my mind -- you need to be there, in person, feeling the swelling and vibration in your own chest, to really appreciate it, but this isn't too bad
