Date: November 23rd, 2017 8:43 PM Author: Flickering stage They werent trying to do the same thing. Beethoven was the king of the symphony. And his piano sonatas make up some of the most important keyboard literature. But Chopin was a *piano composer*, uninterested in other instruments, and his artistry was such that even the physical hand movements the pianist makes while performing his music are choreographed to the highest level of artistry. No other composer, besides perhaps Bach (and Scarlatti but that point is harder to argue), reached that level of pianism. Liszt was more concerned with virtuosity.
Having said that, I have the utmost respect for beethoven. He explicitly did not CARE about pianism and just wrote music to sound good. He also clearly had a much deeper catalogue of master works.
Comparing the two really isn’t fair and calling Chopin a “beethoven knockoff” or w/e is just hilariously misguided |
