...at least here Vivaldi is mentioned

but aside from this, what do you think of this Bach?

Great Topa and infinite Bach

... Vivaldi "pulls" always

This shows us how much music is a woman today... of course, the genius is Bach, but the number of views is for her.

Well, I find that musically there are some interesting things.

For example, evaluate the Vivaldi at 1'51'', that passage is already sensual on its own (I mean Vivaldi)...as it should be, look at how it is prepared. But among the two videos I posted, there are several very effective passages.

But who is that loser in the Vivaldi video, some incredulous academic?

In summary, it is a clip with a girl dancing with a violin; I hope the arrangements are at least hers... otherwise she would just be the classic image girl, there are many of them in discotheques.

Like in this case

Bach always holds his own. Inspiration for everyone... and also good Vivaldi, honor to us Italians (of a time, unfortunately)

....obviously you're joking, right? Otherwise you have some problem

Just for completeness, I wouldn't want anyone to get the wrong idea.

I would say we all talk later, right?

...mmhm, I smell prejudice and I wouldn't be so offensive. Forgive my frankness.

But she is a goddess, I want to marry her!!!

I didn't know her, I think she has a good dose of genius

...."oh well"

Maybe wiki can help you

I mean... oh well, maybe I'll be the one to say it.

Either we talk about music, or I don't know... look, she is a musician.

Seriously, does anyone know if she is married?

To be honest, I don't love these kinds of arrangements. Judge me as an old man but... I just can't stomach this stuff.

More than anything, I believe they teach no one anything.

Above all, I believe they teach nothing to anyone.

That's what you say, so much so that in the Milan conservatory, this year Massimiliano Viel (do we all know who he is? Right?), in the electroacoustic music history course, will specifically cover the History of Electronic Dance Music (Techno House Breakbeat).

...so, as long as one stays within one's taste it's okay, but otherwise perhaps it would be better to study a bit first

Every now and then I love creating this kind of disruption in the forum to understand, as sometimes happens, where we stand on a "cognitive" level.

Techno music is a phenomenon of the '90s, so Vanessa Mae was doing what needed to be done at the right time; if I did it now, I would be at least anachronistic.... if anything, today I should aim for at least mash-ups. Therefore, it's not that you are old, but rather that the tracks you listen to, as Ilenia reminds us, are already part of history. And let's not even suggest that electronic music has nothing to teach; let's not joke around.
