That version is amazing, and also a pleasure to watch him play.

On my to do list is go get my daughter an organ. They are practically giving them away on Gumtree.

Maybe I'll upload some audio of one of her pieces if everyone behaves themselves Wink

All we have seen are statements of preference. I will throw this in: complex music has no more aesthetic value than un-complex music.

I don't think much pop music will live for a long time in the public memory. Probably some Beatles' melodies are an exception.

Similarly I doubt much jazz music will survive into the future. There will be sub-cultures that will be an exception to the rule, and the same goes for pop music.

Ethnic & folk music I guess by definition are survivors, but again with minorities.

But I think these will survive virtually forever, well for centuries: the music of Strauss, Mozart, Beethoven and Chopin

I was a teenager in the 70’s and early 80’s I still love most of the music of that time, including some music from the 50’s and 60’s which was still played on radio in those years and of course some of the Greek music my parents played.

I think the golden era of Aussie music started in the 60’s, matured in the 70’s and started to decline in the 80’s, this music in all its forms from those 3 decades remain my favourite and it’s what I listen to today.

Music I don't like, devil worshiping head bangers and techno music..... Roll Eyes

The classics, by definition.

A classic means something that lives on because it spurs others on and makes them both copy/imitate AND improve on it. A classic is something to have a conversation and dialogue with. Something merely commercial an popular is quickly forgotten and dies without a trace. A fashion, a mania, a trend, a whim.

Not a classic.

You've just described Donald Trump.

Back to the topic, though:

- the masters of classical music, of course

- Beatles, Stones, Floyd, etc.

- Miles Davis

- Justin Bieber

Just kidding Grin

Most people will probably forget Miles Davis.

Don't get me wrong: I'm a big Miles Davis fan.

I just don't think he'll be remembered all that well.

He spent his final years as a used car salesman, so I believe.

So sad.

A great talent.
