^^^ pinnacle of western art. Mozart without all the unmelodic crap.

Not sure it does what it says on the tin though.

just to prop up Geir's favorite strawman composer for more fun in this thread

No twelve-tone masturbation in front of the baby please.

I like how Nessum Dorma, Carmen, Jupiter and one of Debussy's drippier pieces are too unmelodic for Geir.

Not all of it, but a lot of it. Generally "classical" music from after 1900 is not wasting much time on. The true classical music of the 20th century were composed by pop composers.

Bach and Mozart were the greatest composers of the 18th century, Beethoven and Brahms may have been the greatest composers of the 19th century (a larger number of candidates though) and McCartney and Wilson were probably the greatest composers of the 20th century.

I have thought about this a lot actually and I still can't decide if I would try and show him the progression of music through time past his own, or just fuck with his mind.
Like,"Here's a great example of American folk music in the 20th century, Mozart..."*puts on Caroliner*
or
"Here's a great example of American folk music in the 20th century, Mozart..."*puts on Bob Dylan*
tough choices...
