I woulda laughed had it not been so sad to read this. But, it typifies the purely lost mentality of this age - artists "supply" artwork for a "low-cost mutual benefit"....how very capitalistic. I'm moved. You'd have gone over big during the Rennaisance. I can imagine the convo with Mozart:

"Give us something in C. A bouncey C. And...put in a lot of drums. People love drums! Can you add some bass to that?"

Mozart: Loads large firearm.

While I agree with your point, the analogy is kind of not chosen right. A large percentage of what we call now "classical music" was made only when it was ordered by the monarchs or rich people of that time.Big smile Without significant financial support the music was just notes on a piece of paper. And I can imagine that exact conversation taking place, but instead of a large firearm, it would probably be something like "Yes, sire. As you wish, sire. Do you wish fireworks to go with it as well?"Lol

THEN...you don't know much about Mozart. And, no, the work wasn't done by commission as you say. Artists were invited to court in accordance to their talents and allowed to compose as they saw fit. The only thing was, people had to like it. I'm sure you're thinking of a TV show, or some book of fiction you read, like maybe Game of Thrones.

Paradise is like where you are right now, only much, much better.

You might be right about Mozart... Tchaikovsky and Mussorgsky were known for that Blink (edit: although Handel did it as well):

Yeah Emperor Joseph II was well known for letting people do wtf they wanted.

"Like many of the "enlightened monarchs" of his time, Joseph was a lover and patron of the arts and is remembered as such. He was known as the "Musical King" and steered Austrian high culture towards a more Germanic orientation. He commissioned the German-language opera Die Entführung aus dem Serail from Mozart. The young Ludwig van Beethoven was commissioned to write a funeral cantata for him, but it was not performed because of its technical difficulty."
