The symphony bracket is here!
This is how voting will proceed:
Beginning on September 1, one poll (2 symphonies) will be posted per day. The poll duration will be 7 days.
The reason for the slow posting will be to give voters time to listen, in case one or both symphonies is new to them!
There are 64 symphonies in the bracket, meaning 32 polls.
Happy voting!

Most heartwarming things about every composer ❤️
Tumblr media
┏━•❃°•°❀°•°❃•━┓
Mendelssohn: the profound respect he had for others
The way he’s so cordial with strangers and even the people he dislikes
Man always remembers his manners and acts cordial as his family has taught him
And on occasions, his bursts of excitement to the point of switching languages highlights his joy to see who his loves
From the 1830's when he was in his 20s: “his excitement was increased so fearfully … that when the family was assembled … he began to talk incoherently in English.”
“His attachment to Mademoiselle Lind’s genius as a singer was unbounded, as was his desire for her success.” About Mendelssohn’s attitude to his wife
The amount of passion letters he wrote may be destroyed, but how his wife described him spoke it all: “He was the only person who brought fulfilment to my spirit, and almost as soon as I found him I lost him again.” ๐·°(৹˃̵﹏˂̵৹)°·๐ the feels bro
Recommended piece: Op. 34 No. 2
⊱ ────── {⋅. ♪ .⋅} ────── ⊰
Chopin: his love for family
Despite his disrespect and uncalled for criticism towards other composers, he still cares about his homeland
Even in his deathbed, he asked a soprano to sing the Polish national anthem
And he sent his siblings letters everyday when he was out of town
And through his ‘love’ letters to his friend, Tytus, you can tell he was passionate (;
“You don’t like being kissed. Please allow me to do so today. You have to pay for the dirty dream I had about you last night.” 👀 Chopin to Tytus — his ‘best friend’
We might never know if he actually meant it or if it was social etiquette back then, but the speculation is still there
Recommended pieces: Op. 22
⊱ ────── {⋅. ♪ .⋅} ────── ⊰
Liszt: everything about him
this man truly was an underrated jewel in the classical word
He was generous to the point where he went broke from teaching music free of charge and holding charity concerts all the time
People from his and our time both misunderstand him for being a womaniser, but he was more than that
He never disrespected any female composers and even when he criticised by his contemporaries, he always kept his cool and even complimented some of them
When Chopin criticised him for playing his nocturnes the wrong anr demanded an apology, Liszt still continued to admire him
Composer chivalry fr.
Recommended pieces: Totentanz
⊱ ────── {⋅. ♪ .⋅} ────── ⊰
Tchaikovsky: his devotion and mellow kindness
He was sweet and shy. Unlike Chopin.
Having only a few close friends and a tightly-knit family, he was fiercely loyal and to whom he loved.
As a gay man in the conservative 19th century Russia, he could only seek solace with his closest friends — his sister being the closest.
When his sister passed, all he could was to dedicate the entire Nutcracker Ballet to her as a part of his self-expression died with her.
And she meant a lot to him. Not only a part of himself was buried, the fact he loved her so much despite his depression and dissatisfaction towards his life, showed how close he was to his family.
Recommended piece: Pas de Deux (it showed his lonely yearning for love in my interpretation; those whimsical melodies and how he missed both sisterly and romantic love)
⊱ ────── {⋅. ♪ .⋅} ────── ⊰
Beethoven: man pulled 2015 pranks in the 19th century
Even though he scowled and raged throughout his life, he pulled pranks and laughed when his guests fell for it
He hid behind the door and scared his guests whenever they went through it
Laughing at their annoyed faces, he continued to turn annoyance to offence when he made his friends the butt of his jokes
To further gouge tears from his grumpy little face, he made more short songs solely as jokes about them
Besides being a hopeless romantic who made Fur Elise as a way to diss Elise, he wrote lyrics, “we all agree that you are the biggest ass” when joking about his violinist friend
Beethoven was either a great or absolutely horrible friend to have
⊱ ────── {⋅. ♪ .⋅} ────── ⊰
Shostakovich: a genuinely good guy
Every lonely person’s wet dream
Showing up on time, being nice back to everyone who was nice to him alongside living life the normal way despite being a composer, he never raised any aggression tendencies like other composers (take notes Beethoven :/)
Love extended beyond family and friends. He threaded and worded his letters with kindness and manners, especially to those who asked him for advice
Even under his intense stress and anxiety during the Soviet Union’s surveillance, the man loved his family.
And that in itself was impressive.
┗━•❃°•°❀°•°❃•━┛
Author’s note: I may not have written a recommended piece for all of them because I am not well-versed in most of their pieces yet
Do tell me what composers to do. I am happy to write about them <:
Much feedback is appreciated ଘ(੭*ˊᵕˋ)੭* ੈ♡‧₊˚

p.s. I can't seem to find the middle part (for higher quality) anywhere even on Mandarake and their official website. I'll definitely update when I got it!

Chopin and Liszt in traditional clothes from Poland and Hungary respectively. mw I apologize if there is any cultural error.

We all know that Chopin prefers fancy designer clothes but this one has flowers...
Dedicated to @foxynovacoda and @chopinski-official
