B: It’s very lucky to see you. 太: Hello, hello *connection problem* B: *connection problem* 太: Hello! Happy new year! E&B: Happy new year! E: How are you? 太: I’m good, thx. Uh, so…due to time, because of time, I’m just gonna blast through my questions, okay. E: Sure! 太: Umm, so umm what aspect or element makes music music to you? Or in other words what is the quality or feature that makes a piece monumental on your perspective, and, in the sense, once this quality has been achieved, (achieved the) perfection, the music should be considered as a sublime piece? And, umm, do you need example(s)? E: Umm, sorry, I think the internet is a little bit choppy, so I only- like (heard) half of the words, but I think what asked was, you know, what do we listen out for what makes music music, and umm, something about what would make a sublime piece, right? Well, I’ll just answer that. B: Yeah. E: That is a (interesting) question, umm, I think there’s like- there’s- so there’s obviously kind of a more kinda physics side of music, which is you know, the way how ears perceive sound, and certain sounds have certain effect to how we feel. Right, so for example, a perfect fifth, kinda resonates together, versus a minor second is dissonance as (?) that feeling. Okay so I think, to me, what makes music music, from- at the first point is it needs to be away that it’s distinguish from noise, right. It’s a bit like what makes art art, like if you look at a painting or like a photo, and so, there’s always exceptions right, because of the art- there are- there’s always exceptions of rules. But let’s just say general rule, uh, there needs to be some form of harmony and and order of the elements, right. So for music, the sounds, they need to not sound like random noises, so how do you do that, or in music- you do that through tonality, through harmony, through rhythm, so you’re organizing through time, but you’re also organizing the frequencies, and the colors, and then from there, it’s like well- what is the style and what do you tryna express through that. And that’s where you have the different aesthetics and approaches and genres, umm from Bach, baroque of the counterpoint aesthetic, to like Mozart, where’s much more homophonic, umm, and then the romantic period, they started pushing the tonality for much more dissonance, but then you can also look at different cultures, like Korean folk music, which is like the way they articulate phrases and cadence through repetition or through like umm, ornamentation, right. A lot of folk music, they just have ornamentation, and I think that’s when it becomes more- like the cultural aspect, you have to understand the syntax of each culture, so that’s to me what makes music music, it’s at least- it needs to be uh- some way to unify the sounds, so that if- you’re experiencing something. Now, what makes a sublime music, I don’t- have an answer to that to be honest, I feel like that’s- I don’t even know if there is an answer to that. Like the perfect piece, but- B: Yeah, I feel lien, oof- once the fundamentals are set- E: Yeah. B: one can play with a lot of things right, and everyone, all the- you find out all of the great artist can tell story with the music, quite convincingly, you *inaudible*, and you feel something, and to me, that’s something really important, but you answered really well. *to Eddy* 太: Yeah, thank you so much! B: Hope that helps! 太: *chuckle* Yeah, cause I was actually inspired by an interview between, I think someone and this Russian director, Tchaikovsky. He really value(s) Bach’s music and sees him as the only person who’s capable of devoting the gift of eternity to God, in an other word, he think(s) Bach is the only human in this world who can make real art, and cause in his- B: *exclamation to “he think(s) Bach is the only human in this world who can make real art“* 太: concept, he thinks art creation is expression of what to God, so that like- E: Uhmm. 太: *chuckle* Kind of (shape the preference). *was covered by Eddy’s voice so not sure about this* E: Um. I mean Bach (is) definitely very, you know religious and devoted his works to God, and Bach- he’d be up there on one of my candidates for reaching perfection, that’s for sure. B: Oh yeah, woah yeah, he’s the- woah, the musical perfection, harmony and- he’s got it, he’s got it. E: Yeah. B: Cool, alright look, (太太名), we’d love to stay longer, but we have to run. 太: Thank you so much! E: Thank you for coming! B: Thank you! 太: Congratulations on you concert, thank you so much! E&B: Thank you! 太: Yup, see ya! B&E: Bu-bye! |
