    If you can recognise a piece by Meyerbeer, you've probably written a thesis on 19th century opera. Seriously, I've studied musicology for years and I'm stomped by many of these questions. Especially French opera kills me every time.

      @Ragnar Particularly to be able to answer these questions, you only need to listen to the music itself while knowing when and where it was written. You quickly become able to distinguish between various spatial and temporal styles. And even for general knowledge, no book beats scrolling around Wikipedia and articles elsewhere while actually listening to the music. Having said that, Aaron Copland's What To Listen For In Music is quite good.

    Some really good questions; it’s just a shame that the music is entirely 19th and 20th century, and as far as those setting the questions go, ‘classical’ music seems to begin with Beethoven.

      Lol being at Oxbridge doesn’t mean u suddenly know loads about everything including classical music. Just means they’re good at their specific subject (which for most of them isn’t music). Anyway, they’re under pressure & are probs kinda tired from loads of other questions so are bound to make a few more slip ups than normal. Anyway, ngl a lot of the composers / pieces of music selected weren’t that mainstream

    • @somebodyuknow2507
      @somebodyuknow2507 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Nope, dies is a Latin noun meaning day, and both its nominative singular and plural are dies. However the next word irae is the genitive SINGULAR of ira, if it was “days of wrath” it would be “dies irarum” not “dies irae”
