great music? (continued from 'great music?' here ... https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2022/11/western-brook-pond-fjord-in-gros-morne.html


Stephon, 

Further ... :) ... and regarding your listening much to symphonic music ... and playing trumpet classically ... 

If a computer is an input-output device which runs code (one definition), and you and I are (as bodyminds with brains), conceptually, computers, 

. . . LISTENING to great music as input, 

... then processing 'this' by listening understanding feeling remembering +, 

... and then outputting 'this' 

on your trumpet, on my Scottish small pipes re Piobaireachd classical bagpipe music - (aka ceol mor, which can be translated also as great music ceol=music and mor=great in Scottish Gaelic) 

- how can we best LISTEN (input) to great music (whether a teacher says it is, or whether we feel it is, etc.) ... and then output (PLAY) this in GREATEST ways? :)


Have been learning the great Piobaireachd "Lament for the Children" (practicing it ... somewhat unmoved or not finding beautiful the recordings if this I've been listening to ... Piobaireachd is an unique classical music to play beautifully) ... and then I found this recording by John D Burgess whose playing of other Piobaireachd I've been most moved by ... Is it the way he 'bends' the notes, better since pipers don't bend notes, is it the length of the notes one to the other that he plays so well) ?



So inputting ... re a quite beautiful version is facilitating my outputting this Piobaireachd in the learning process somewhat enjoyably (in practicing it, for example). 


Here's "Hair: the tribal love rock musical" title song which is funny and great ... 1960s as counterculture (re my 2016 Harbin book's anthropological focus on 'culture' vis a vis counterculture ... newly digitally with its focus on creating a realistic virtual Harbin too) (where I think subcultures give form to a music eg the Romantic period as a subculture) ...

"Hair" Hair (the original Broadway cast) (lyrics) - 1968 


https://youtu.be/w_zaSKZks1A


and it's an interesting 'output,' long past the '60s & '70s ... like rock and roll itself 


How to listen and learn from this for my 3rd Scottish Small Piping album possibly riffing with classical Piobaireachd melodies with the Allman Bros with Jerry Garcia and Bo Didley at Cow Palace in '73 in SF (I'm asking myself)?  ... And with Google machine learning AI for music as well ?


And here's the actual recording of the 2nd greatest American composer I referred to IN LAST EMAIL - 
Amy Beach: "Ah, Love, but a day!"
https://youtu.be/d3FkjHc0hC8

(again, am not that into or moved by the European 'Lieder' or classical song tradition ... and maybe Symphony orchestras are facing this issue. Compared with large Rock concerts (like the GD from 1965-79 or the Allman Bros from and so many more) , ... they're aiming to do different things with series of tones 

Thoughts about great music, beauty in music ... Making the unconscious CONSCIOUS  ... to be able to PLAY MOVINGLY ... Making explicit in writing or words these great music experiences ?...

Cheers, 
Scott

Stephon, 

Regarding input and output and code processing - of computer devices - and humans learning music metaphorically, as I was sitting in half lotus in daily Yoga meditation yesterday, it occurred to me that inhaling and exhaling and the pause or stillness between these 2 breathing processes have parallels with this take on computers. Could the stillness in between be the code processing in listening for learning to music ... re unconscious and making conscious the input and output? C'est possible.

Blogged again a bit about this yestersay in the 11/12/22 Loch Lomond post - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2022/11/loch-lomond-and-trossachs-national-park.html.


And here's some of these ideas on Twitter -

Stephon, 

Am curious what best, and great, and beautiful is regarding music ... (and regarding identity questions too ... am an anthropologist and sociologist in some of these regards ...)

I find myself listening much to the Grateful Dead (1965 thru 1979, and Jerry Garcia died in 1995 and the Dead were no longer a group after this) and the Allman Brothers these days ... why I wonder ... because this Rock and Roll music moves me in specific ways 

... and I'm also asking regarding creating my Piobaireachd classical bagpipe album ... Honey Piobaireachd ...  (which is a classical music in some senses, because ... ) 


Per your observation yesterday evening about Copland's Symphony No 3 ...


Amy Beach makes the 2nd of 25 spots here ... 

2nd greatest American composer ever 
AMY BEACH (1867-1944)

per 
25 best American composers of all time
... but I've never really been that attracted to the European "Lieder" (classical music European and American song tradition) so the recording ... 


And 

Copland's Symphony No 3 (1946) makes 10th spot here - 

per
10 best American symphonies
https://www.gramophone.co.uk/features/article/the-golden-age-of-the-american-symphony

Looked up 
10 greatest Quaker symphony composers

... and nothing comes up, not surprisingly ... symphony composition hasn't played too big a role in Quaker's meme (replicating cultural units) spheres or circles either in the USA or the Great Britain or elsewhere 

I am however a big fan of Beethnoven's 9 symphonies ... (as possibly the greatest symphony composer ever) 

What do you think, Stephon? What makes a music best, or greatest, or beautiful ? (Have explored some in my blog about questions of beauty and what philosophically, and regarding Piobaireachd classical bagpiping music too - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/bagpiping - but earlier this year and last year mostly).

Cheers, 
Scott
