Nah Bach shits on Mozart. Mozart make extremely catchy music like Justin Beiber. I seriously do love mozart, but he merely wrote music. Bach weaved math into his music more than anyone before or after. His music sounds dense and more multi dimensional than mozart or saint saens. It really doesn't sound like he was trying to write beautiful music ( even though it is ) , it sounds like he was solving an equation and just writing out the answers as a harmonic sequence

See, music isn’t just math, it’s feel. I guess that’s why I dislike him the way I do. It’s too robotic.

Truth is, they were ALL Justin Bieber. It’s all pop music of the time.

Also they were not all justin beiber. Bach was a working church musician when mozart was out touring europe getting drunk and shitting on women. Only one of them was in it for the fame. In fact you could say that mozart and liszt were 2 of the first "pop stars" because that archetype didn't exist before them. There was basically no "beatlesmania" over bach. He had a steady job, but he didn't die wealthy or famous.

Did not expect one of the most unhinged discussions on HN to start over classical music but aight.

When someone gushes over Bach, I tend to go off. Glad that others are just as knowledgeable as I am in Baroque.
