sometimes i listen to tchaikovsky's music and i get so emotional not simply bc of the music but bc of the thought that he existed and felt and created it and i get to listen to his heart a little like that. listening to the gentle warmth and exuberance of the nutcracker and im like he made that! for us! i love you

#waltz of the flowers making me emotional. ok.#maybe it's bc im so stressed anything is bound to make me cry nowadays #did you know i threw out my back again two weeks ago and still haven't recovered completely #probably bc im so stressed #im specifically saying tchaik bc no other composer truly makes me feel the way he does #actually so much to say about how if there's a popularity contest for composers he almost always wins by a mile #something abt the incredible potential for emotional connection in his music i think. he touches hearts.#if anyone says that he's popular bc his music is 'approachable' and not of high complex classical standard or whatever im killing u #(im looking at you spotify description)#'even if it lacks the formal boldness and harmonic sophistication heard in the compositions of wagner and bruckner'#BRUCKNER!?? BRUCKNER????? fuck off fr #wagner couldn't reach tchaik's emotional sweep if he tried. but i rarely listen to him anyway bc he was a massive antisemite #i should stop reading tchaik's description on spotify bc every time it makes me seethe it's so patronising and degenerative it's unreal #curry rambles
