Sex in music?

frank zappa has some great scenes from freak out album with "suzy creamcheese".. which are very much like crazy sex.

And once again, Corbin proves how extraordinarily helpful he is.

That's what the second tuba is for!

Oh believe me, this is WAY different than someone asking me what would the best viola strings.

I've STARTED threads about this with lots of information. Go use search and don't complain.

*mopes off mumbling something about G strings*

*is shot*

My music abstains. :cool:

you mean your music masturbates.

gee, i dunno, wasn't the opening of "Der Rosenkavalier" about sex? I am not sure, but it sure sounds like the noise of the beast with two backs.

Scriabin's 4th sonata. done.

Susan McClary,

Enough said.

hehe, that's what I was thinking.

Abstinence isn't natural, I think the more sex there is in music, the better it is.

P.S. Obvious virgins are obvious

I know, why else would someone think "more sex there is in music, the better it is". They are not getting it at all in their real life, so they try to find escape in music. How sad:sadtears:

Funny... I've always wanted to compose a piece about sex... or masturbation anyway. Perhaps one day I will find the rhythmic support.

Pardon me, but a friend of mine (who is a Professor) once told me about a piece where you play the piano with an erect penis!

Haha. This thread is optimistic! :)

Okay, but you won't think about Shostakovich's 10th symphony, that that was about sex.. :)

The 3rd part contained the Elmira-theme (E B(La) E(Mi) D(Re) A). Elmira was a celliste

I was thinking of Strauss as well. Salome's pretty sexy (especially if you're into necrophilia). Some musicals have sex scenes coupled with singing, like Rent and Avenue Q. And there's a great scene in The Red Violin involving Paganini and his two instruments (although that's probably more like sex with music than sex in music). I wonder what it would have sounded like if Freud and Kinsey composed?

The Red Violin is precisely why I refuse to see what Hollywood will do to classical music anymore. :)

CORIGLIANO!!! WOOO!!!

Paganini's not in The Red Violin. The character's name is Frederick Pope. (EDIT: Wrong name... Alexander Pope's the poet.)

yeah, but the character pope is supposedly modeled after Paganini.

I'm modeled after Paganini.

I'm modeled after Paganini.

That's cool, cuz I'm modeled after Berlioz. Piss in my face and take your viola elsewhere.

Basically, sex/lust is a major part in lots of operas.

Carmen was put down because it was TOO hot blooded!

I think Carmen was "put down" because it blows.

Well, everyone's entitled to their own opinion, but Carmen was the first opera I ever saw, so I think I like it so much for that reason.

Yeah, but either way, whether it's "too hot" or it blows, its sex in music. :P

Cinq Rechants - messaien. He basically took the erotic undertones of Song of Songs and tried to translate them into the choral idiom to a greater degree than his predecessors.
