¿Is classical music simplex or complex?
I recently saw some videos that I have drawn much attention. This is a program that lets us see the music, shows us a beautiful and harmonious as the music of different themes of classical music.
We can see and hear the difference between playing an organ or play a whole symphony. There is more complexity in the second, but I think both sound great. What is the difference?
I will place different videos, the first of Chopin, Bach and two of Beethoven. This exquisite music with us while we learn the crucial difference between the simple and complex:
First I want to hear (and see) this beautiful piece by Chopin. Simple and solemn. From the beginning, it tell us how are relate the colors to the notes (octaves blue for example). This type of music is soft. Soothing music usually brings very simple schemes, few instruments, tones and patterns that repeat themselves easy to spot. Its simplicity makes it beautiful:
In contrast to the previous piece. I want you to hear and see this work of Bach that I love. First movement of the third Brandenburg concerto is a piece of music full of instruments, colors and joy. Complexity is undeniable. There are short and one long colors, tones that rise and others fall, there are pauses in some instruments and fast sounds in others. Although there are thousands of regularities in this video, in this concert Bach master the complexity and makes it in a wonderful way:
Now we have is "Toccata and Fugue in D minor" by Bach played on the organ. It is a simple piece of music. A single instrument that goes up and down, few colors, long tones and a style full of regularities that recur. We can see waterfalls up and down accompanied by his own sound. The sound is clean:
After listening please compare it with the well-known Beethoven's 5th Symphony. After his famous ta-ta-ta-tan! described by a simple repeated regularly, is a series of musical movements that sweeten our hatred as we see the colors of the bars light up according to different patterns.Repeating patterns for each instrument but also bring harmony in general:
Music is an art full of simplicity and complexity
Both sides are wonderful
