  • Alright all of you classical music lovers, can you name your favorite composers and their pieces that you enjoy?

    My favorite composers are Beethoven, Mozart, and Bach and I really enjoy Beethoven's Ninth Symphony and Bach's Christmas Oratio.

  • Vivaldi, L'estro Armonico op. 3

    "Be kind; do not seek the malicious satisfaction of having discovered an additional enemy to the Church... And, above all, be scrupulously truthful. To all, friends and foes alike, give that serious attention which does not misrepresent any opinion, does not distort any statement, does not mutilate any quotation. We need not fear to serve the cause of Christ less efficiently by putting on His spirit". (Vermeersch, 1913).

  • All time favorites are classical guitar pieces by Bach, Scarlatti, and from the romantic period Tárrega.
    Some Beethoven & Chopin during my melodramatic youth.

  • I have had so many favorites over the years.  These days, it is probably Bach - Air.

  • Beethoven's Eroica symphony, though it was unfortunately written in tribute to the ideals of the French Revolution.

  • Raoul76 is a member whose past posts I have read a lot of and he has the right idea about music. As soon as music moves away from giving praise to God towards sentimentality, affectation and "art for art's sake" it becomes decadent and spiritually destructive.
    Don't get me wrong, I can listen to Beethoven and Mozart and more or less discern the colossal genius that is credited to them; but Beethoven's work is manic depressive, brooding, full of praise for the French Revolution, utopian, humanist, etc.; and Mozart was a Freemason.

    Stravinsky's music is so pagan. His Rite of Spring is a cacophany of lust and drunkenness, it reminds one of ancient Dionysus cults. A lot of the Russian composers are like that. Once the 20th century "empancipation of dissonance" occured in music it became more or less openly Satanic. Imagine if St. Augustine heard a composition of Karlheinz Stockhausen coming from a house; he would think that it had been taken over by demonic spirits, and he would be right.

    There is a place in Plato, I think it's in The Republic, where he states that good music is necessary for the proper ordering of a society. Pythagoras, whom Plato was no doubt influenced, was a gnostic occultist who also ascribed vast spiritual importance to music. The idea is that the right music will put you in the right spirit, and if you want a good society you need to put people in good spirits (and we know that the only good Spirit is the Holy Spirit). When you listen to much of 17th-20th century classical / art music you are basically being visited by the phantom spirits of the French Revolution, The "Enlightenment", Humanism, and further on, weird occultism and gnosticism. Watch this: Mozart wrote a piece for his Freemason buddies. It's very evil.

    Listening to Beethoven's 5th will fill you with a passion to conquer; listening to his 9th will put you in the mood to overthrow existing society to create a utopia where "all Menschen werden Brüder". Listening to 13th century will put you in a humble and contemplative mood where you reflect on the glory of God.
    Music is quite important in this sense.

  • Also worth mentioning is how the humanists made a cult out of music. I laugh when I think about that 20th century Jєω Adorno's lament where he states that society is corrupt because children don't know the difference between Bruckner's 9th and his 6th, or whatever. He was being sincere, too. Yeah, it's not love of God that will save us, it's being able to "appreciate the genius of the great composers". This is where I start to see the cult in culture. This is where all the snobbishness comes from where the "men of culture" look down their noses at others for not being able to "appreciate the sublime music of Mozart" (pronouncing "Mozart" in a refined way). Well, the "sublime music of Mozart" is humanist and masonic dreck, and I could chuck away all of Mozart and all of Beethoven for that old folk song Greensleeves. These people are more or less in a cult, the cult of "art appreciation and High Culture", which is Humanism, the worship of Mankind and its petty achievements. Think of those theater performances where the pianist is sat in front of an enormous crowd of overly-dressed buffoons who sit with sharp teeth ready to devour him with haughty contempt if he strikes a wrong note. It's a cult, more hilarious than Scientology because people are so ready to give to it the credibility that they aren't to Scientology.

    Yep, Beethoven is second only to Wagner for being the greatest Heavy Metal composer that there has ever been. Vivaldi's, Summer, 3rd movement, is pretty "heavy" too, and Paganini was the greatest "shredder" of all time.

  • This may be quite far out there for some, but they use popular music to program people in mindcontrol operations. Certain phrases are occultic. For example, "somewhere over the rainbow" is apparently a suggestion that they use to mindcontrol victims; as the victim is undergoing the trauma that is necessary to "split" their personality, they are told to "go to that place over the rainbow", that "happy place", in other words, to lose their sense of self, to "dissociate", as it's called. Elton John has supposedly admitted that all of his songs are written in "Witch Language". It's not just Elton John, it's virtually the entire popular music industry. Certain phrases occur over and over . . . like "follow your heart", which is the occult doctrine of "do what thou wilt", "do what you want to do". When you hear the word "love" being used in pop music it is almost always a reference to Eros, the pagan idea that there is this cosmic force that gets people to want to mate / perform sex acts. When occultists say "love" they invariably mean sɛҳuąƖ desire / lust. An obscure one is the use of the word "hater" that keeps cropping up, and I have this suspicion that "hater" refers to real Catholics, i.e. those that hate the New Age philosophy of "do what you want to do", "live and let live", "tolerate all religions and all points of view", etc.

    I'll summarize a few videos but I won't link to them, because they are evil.

    In Lady Gaga's "Judas" Jesus Christ and the Apostles are portrayed as being a Biker Crew, and Lady Gaga is a Mary Magdalene who has "fallen in love with Judas". The idea being that it's pretty hip for a young Christian girl to give up her Christian sense of purity and chastity for that heartthrob that's been seducing her.

    In Katy Perry's "E.T." she talks about wanting to be abducted by aliens and inseminated by them, producing offspring that are superhuman. This is one of the more deeply evil of the gnostic ideas that is becoming more and more widespread. You can see it in Spielberg movies and all over the place.

    In Kanye West's "Power" he is the Antichrist.

    In Katy Perry's "Unconditionally" she talks about having an unconditional love for the Antichrist.

    In Katy Perry's "Roar" she is presented as a kind of fertility goddess. "I've got the eye of the tiger", "You're going to hear me roar, louder, louder than a lion", are the lyrics. Tiger is a symbol of lust. I have a feeling that she represents the Whore of Babylon in this video and that when the Great Whore says "you're going to hear me roar, louder, louder than a lion" she is saying that her voice is going to be heard louder across the world than the voice of Christ, because Christ is the "Lion of the tribe of Judah".

    There's a new singer called "Lorde". The name itself is wicked. It's a perversion of Lord, God's title. It's linked to the gnostic idea of the "Eternal Feminine", that there is a divine male principle and a divine female principle. Her video "Team" shows a young boy being inducted into a cult. I believe that the lyrics are the Devil boasting about having all of the politicians on his side. "We are on the same team, and you know, and you know, and you know", are the final lyrics. In other words, "YOU KNOW THAT ALL OF "WE", THE ELITE, ARE CONSPIRING TOGETHER, AND YOU IMPLICITLY GIVE YOUR APPROVAL OF IT, YOU IMPLICITY WORSHIP THE BEAST".

    Miley Cyrus's "We Can't Stop" is more boasting on the part of the Beast. "And we can't stop, and we won't stop", i.e., we, the devils that control the nєω ωσrℓ∂ σr∂єr, cannot stop and will not stop. "It's our party and we can do what we want". You can link this to the current state of Rome. "It's OURS and if we want to mock Christ and mislead the faithful we can do that". "Remember only God can judge ya, forget the haters 'cause somebody loves ya". Here's that use of "haters" I was talking about, in other words: you can do whatever you want to do, and nobody can contradict you, because "only God can judge you". This is linked to that New Age blasphemy that God is some hippie that just wants us to "get along" and that doesn't mind us engaging in debauchery and perverting his image.

    Selena Gomez's "Come and Get It" is the Whore of Babylon literally telling you right to your own face that if you fall down and worship her she'll give you the world.

    Britney Spears' "Work B****" is the Whore of Babylon literally telling you right to your own face that if you fall down and worship her she'll give you the world. The only difference is that Gomez's is aimed at men, Spears' at women.

    will.i.am (another gnostic name. "I AM" is one of God's names. "Will I Am" is saying that the Will is God, just like Nietzsche and Aleister Crowley. It's the "do what thou wilt" mantra again) ft. Justin Bieber's "#thatPOWER" makes me believe that the Antichrist is alive in the world today. It is frightening. Bieber is the Antichrist in the video. "And, ohhhhhhh, I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive, and, ohhhhh, I can fly, I can fly, I can fly, and I'm loving every second, minute, hour, bigger, better, stronger, power." I just heard a prophecy recently too, I believe from Holzahauser, that the Antichrist would be able to fly.

    Once you see the gnosticism at work in these video they actually become extremely dangerous to watch. They are already dangerous to watch, but when you "open your third eye" and see that it isn't Selena Gomez on screen talking about her boyfriend, but the Whore of Babylon enticing you to worship her, then you are molested with temptations to worship the Devil. They are already dangerous to watch, because even if you can't see in the videos that the Devil is speaking to you and asking you to join his side, you still see all of the Devil's work - the debauchery, lust, idolatry - and you implicitly give your approval of it when you dance along and praise it in your heart. When I watch those girls go into violent convlusions when they see their favourite idol, it makes me want to despair. This is idolatry, it's an abomination. When after a singer as finished his or her song and the crowd ROARS with approval, it's as though I'm hearing them fall down and worship the Beast. I only have these insights in tiny glimpses and they shock me so much that I recede back into my acedia and forget that I'm living in Mystery Babylon and that I need to repent.

  • Look at this, lol,

    That beautiful architecture and that massive congregation all there to listen to the Devil play his fiddle.
    Are you ready as yet to accuse me of Puritanism? :farmer:
