This is better known as "speed up ... Lenny has to pee" recording.

Just watched Amadeus again last night - I love that movie...

Mozart reminds me of Sunday mornings

/and being hung over

Rock me (pops)

I'm 26 and the only thing I've accomplished is beating Guitar Hero III on hard....

/really

Lacrymosa is one of my favorite things ever.

My favorite piece of classical music ever. I'm 26 and suffer from Mozart Inferiority Complex like you wouldn't believe.

/Haven't accomplished shiat.

Was I the only one that thought this would flip into a rick roll part way in?

irae - "eer-eye", not "eer-ay"

Stick yer church Latin. Go vulgus (that's pronounced "wulgus", or go home.

/Robbie Burns day soon, too! A great proponent of popular speech.

Subby should of searched around for the original video.

In 1791, Mozart composes "The Magic Flute"

/Ama- ama- ama- ama- ama- amadeus.

Ah...the saddest of all keys.

Magnificent piece of music. Truly magnificent. Turned up my computer speakers loud enough to annoy the guys in the server room.

/ told them to get off my lawn

here is part of his masterpiece or hear part of his masterpiece?

When I was 26, I was still trying to finish up my undergraduate degree while taking bong hits in my parent's basement.

When I was 26 my wife and I had been married 3 years and were expecting our first child. Same year I bought my first house. Welcome to '92....When we couldn't agree on a 386DX33 or SX. And a 120 meg HDD.

I hate this POS song man.

nirwana: Subby should of searched around for the original video.

/blinks eyes

I've gotten a chance to perform this one twice as part of the baritones. Love it.

frostus: Rock me (pops)

Er war ein Punker !!!

/oh, oh, oh, oh

A concertmaster? I'd venture to argue that playing first chair violin would rank fairly low among WA Mozart's accomplishments.

At age 26, Britney Spears is a confirmed whacko.

Atomic Spunk:When I was 26, I was still trying to finish up my undergraduate degree while taking bong hits in my parent's basement.

/so true my friend.

I'm only 21, so I still have plenty of time to accomplish great things. I think I'll get started on that soon.

/plays some more Call of Duty 4

Damn, in five months he'll have me beat. Guess I better get crackin on that novel.

HighVoltage13: I'm only 21, so I still have plenty of time to accomplish great things. I think I'll get started on that soon.

Same here. I'll review the Classical Sanskrit verb conjugations.

/screw you, Panini

Well, I've got six years...


...ah, screw it

Ah, they don't write 'me like that anymore...

I love watching Leonard Bernstein bounce and dance around at the conductor's stand. hehehe. He's awesome.

I liked Mozart until he sold out.

frostus: Rock me (pops)

Mozart would've almost certainly loved that. Now if only more people who go gaga about Mozart had a sense of humor like Mozart had.

and what the hell, here's some Salieri (pops)

thanks fark, now i feel like a total failure.

/26
//college degrees are worthless

So very awesome.

\always preferred this Falco.

In all fairness to the underachievers in this thread, he didn't write this piece until he was 35.

When Mazart was my age he had been dead for twelve years.

////sigh.

Dr. Nick Riviera: In all fairness to the underachievers in this thread, he didn't write this piece until he was 35.

Didn't he die at age 33???

The movie 'Amadeus' was one of the best movies ever to hit the screen, even though it was a tiny bit dramatized. While his requiem is not my favorite song of his, I am in awe of what Mozart accomplished during so little time alive. His work was simply magnificent.

das: Dr. Nick Riviera: In all fairness to the underachievers in this thread, he didn't write this piece until he was 35.

You're confusing Mozart with Chris Farley. Common mistake.

Epsilon: even though it was a tiny bit dramatized.

yeah just a wee bit, like in the movie he only has one kid, in truth he had six, four of whom died young.

And for the fun of it, here's one sheet of the original score for the linked to piece

WhyteRaven74: and what the hell, here's some Salieri (pops)

I forget which piece by Salieri my husband & I were listening to one day. Mid-way through the piece, it changed keys abruptly. Jarring change--no reason for it. We were bewildered for a second & then started cracking up.

/"I'm Salieri--the patron saint of Mediocrity!"
//Mozart's always been a favorite. Try Mozart for the Morning Commute for a fun drive.

brigid_fitch: Jarring change--no reason for it. We were bewildered for a second & then started cracking up.

hmmm can't recall what that would be, though a key change like that, doesn't surprise me.

I don't have time to listen to this b/s

Tupac is still alive, long live Tupac

Mozart....meh


Beethoven>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Mozart

It's a definite toss up for me between Mozart's Requiem and Braham's Requiem - two completely different styles, both equally as enjoybale to listen to.

///just finished my Requiem Mass. Not really.

Pepehomer: It's a definite toss up for me between Mozart's Requiem and Braham's Requiem

Since we're comparing, I recommend Faure's Requiem.

More about his sense of humor - he wrote his horn concerti for a good friend of his and left many notes in the margins of the one we now call No. I. Things like "wow, this is hard!" and "don't screw up" and "ha! you made a mistake!" and "Finally, we're at the ending".

"Mozart, Mozart don't play loud"

but he would anyway.

/spinal tap

awww... no body bit my troll...

I performed the Robert Levin version of the Requiem my 2nd year in college. Dies Irae, Rex Tremendae, Confutatis, and Lacrimosa are arguably the finest notes ever put down on paper.
