anyone familiar with Alfred Schnittke's "Concerto Grosso No. 1"?
well, that's PSYCHEDELIA with classical instruments...
it's one of most amazing musical pieces I ever heard...
It's written for 2 violins, harpsichord, prepared piano & strings and uses classical forms as Rondo and recitative only in a very psychedelic way....
here is a review I found in amazon:
"This was my first exposure to Schnittke, and it (the Concerto Grosso on this album) was hypnotizing. It sounded less like most classical pieces I'd been familiar with, and more like an hour-long trip of experimental mood textures built up upon each other, then destroyed dramatically, others thrust down your throat before you had a chance to take a breath (this is one of those few experiences when I sometimes had to remember to breath .. Dylan Thomas being another). It sometimes has the mood impression of a piece of 'trance' music, is sometimes wistful, sometimes angry, other times whimsical .. it is very hard to turn off after the first 10-15 minutes. The references to other classical pieces are also fascinating .. it is amazing how different familiar passages can sound couched in such different surroundings. This is a fantastic recording, and one which has changed my expectations for new music (classical or otherwise) forever. "
anyways it's very recomended!
write some psy-classical music you like too  |

is it really psytrance or just "close to" it? I have always thought it would be cool to create a psytrance track completely with real instruments...

it's not psytrance... and it's not meant to be live version of psytrance...
it's just very psychedelic music
if you read closely you'll see that I wrote Psychedelic classical music, not Psytrance classical music
is it just me or the word Psy appears too much in this reply? lol |

Probably because they don't know or don't understand the meaning of the adjective 'progressive'.
And psychedelia can be in any music, and if it's beautiful as well -- why not?

tom, isn't carmina burana like classical fullon? 
Anyway, I just adore Grieg and his psychedelic work with funky violins and stuff (i'm not a big expert in classical ).
