Mahler pffft. I think he's overrated.
Kalevi Aho-severely underrated. Simon Proctor too. Come on, Serpents and Contrabassoons and Tubas need love too-we're the black sheep of the orchestra. PS. i take that back-Schoenberg is SEVERELY underrated-he's a goddamn genius-so is Toru Takemitsu-I know way too many classical composers lol

Having said that, he wrote a piece called "Das Lied von der Erde" (The song of the Earth) of some oriental lyrics. This piece is one which, I think expresses those same values of worldly description. |
