This link works. - podgey22, on 10/12/2007, -3/+44Can people stop burying full duggmirror links?!
The referrer based ones ONLY work if you're going through a web browser. Not, for example, if you're using Thunderbird. I didn't see anyone else posting a mirror any sooner, so give the guy some credit. - Kbennett, on 10/12/2007, -1/+43He's probably just a big Beethoven fan.
- lava, on 10/12/2007, -0/+38They wouldn't have rights on the works of mozart, but whoever recorded it would have would have rights _on that particular recording_.
- linksdeity, on 10/12/2007, -2/+23You are a moron
- zcreem, on 10/12/2007, -0/+20Well he's at least the right age to start.
- tjtillman, on 10/12/2007, -2/+22actually sharing the mozart content would still be legal
- nakke, on 10/12/2007, -1/+18Damn it with these Beethoven fanboys.
Can't you respect others' work?! - jeru48, on 10/12/2007, -0/+17They'd say that Mozart's works are in the public domain, unlike the works of Metallica. Now, whoever recorded Mozart's music for this particular download might have something else to say....
- dillchuk, on 10/12/2007, -1/+12Podgey22 is right. Many of us Diggers use a RSS reader -- Thunderbird, for instance -- to view the stories on Digg. Only the full Digg mirror URL will work for those in our situation. As an added bonus, the full URLs work for everyone else out there too.
So what's the problem if someone posts the full link? Just askin'... - bromro, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12To chiefchuck0,
Mozart started composing at the age of four. He wrote over 600 compositions until he died at the age of 35. lets see you do that... - Gregd, on 10/12/2007, -1/+12A Wagner fanboy?
- greyfade, on 10/12/2007, -2/+12Thunderbird, as you're clearly unaware, has a built-in RSS reader and displays the full page - in the case of digg, we see the whole page, comments and all. We also see any duggmirror links anyone posts.
An unadorned duggmirror link is completely *USELESS*, since thunderbird launches a new browser to follow a link.
You asshats that digg down the full duggmirror links should be ashamed of yourselves. - Card, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10Legal as long as the orchestra that performed it says it is.
- gnomon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9Mozart just turned 250 shmarty pants.
- jacked, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8I think what podgey is getting at is that without the full URL you can' t copy and paste the address into an e-mail and have it work as intended for the recipient.
- drseth, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Here's the torrent for all 180 CDs of Mozart Classical:
http://www.mininova.org/get/409180
44 GB - nosebleed, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9Mozart is going to come back from the dead and sue us all! Then maybe release a hip-hop album.
- firehydra2k, on 10/12/2007, -7/+14I concur. No big corporation can own classical music, so they have no right to sue people for downloading it. Even the RIAA can't do jack.
- Poco, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6"Are the scores copyrighted, though? No. And I believe no one can claim ownership of those music sheets (if not, then classical advocates may attack the corporation that bought it)."
You are not downloading music sheets - you are downloading someone playing the music. As long as they don't still hold any copyrights on their rendition then this is free to download. - open_sauce, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7If I said "All your Mozart are belong to us"...would I get dugg down?
- Twango, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Yeah. Everybody knows Mozart has *too many notes*. Zooming up and down like that. If only he would have left out a few.
Whereas Beethoven ... ach du lieber! - JamesWilson, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7Its open source. Someone fix it. :)
- cphuntington97, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Listening to a Joe Blow performance of Mozart is like listening to a karaoke cover of your favorite tunes - it's just not that great.
Note: I have no idea who is actually performing on these recordings.
Somehow, in the past hundred years+, the trend has been towards a "cool, clean" interpretation of old music. But that is not how it was performed; genuine Classical Era music would have been played with more variations on tempo, more sliding around with the notes, and just in general more emotion and expression.
You'll find a few performers around today who are interested in playing period music in a period style on period instruments - complete with plenty of improvisation.
Listen to those artists if you really want to experience Mozart. - octopi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4If you want more than just Mozart, I suggest you go digg this:
http://digg.com/music/Huge_collection_of_free_classical_music_MP3_s
A giant collection of all kinds of classical music MP3's. - Obsydian, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4if anyone here has gotten all of these before we destroyed their server, can someone create a torrent of all of them and give us a link?
- Zippo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Classic compositions such as those of Mozart are considered public domain... mainly because they're so old. And obviously the RIAA doesn't have a contract with Mozart.
Downloading licenced music is only legal in certain countries, such as Canada. - thatbox, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I'm unfamiliar with these things - could you suggest a place to start?
- canewediggit, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4is anybody able to access this? i've been trying for 2 hours now w/ no luck. looking forward to it though, good find.
- shawnlane, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3The music Mozart composed is amazing. Those of you that have never listened to his music should give it a try. I bet you will be surprised that you like it.
- gnomon, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Some people prefer Taco Bell over caviar.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5Mozart is my favorite composer, I am influenced by his work all the time.
It's so freaky for me to think that he was just 3 years older than me (I am 19)) when he wrote my favorite piano sonata of his, his K331 in A Major. I can only pray to have 1/10th of his genius in my lifetime.
DUGG! - zcreem, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Why? At high sampling rates you can't hear the difference on the average HiFi.
- pile0nades, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/1807
Adds mirror links to every story. - cvp1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3It's illegal if the performer has copyrighted the work. I got into a bit of trouble for using some work by Vivaldi in a film I made because of this reason. Fortunately, Wikipedia has a recording of the same work available under a liberal Creative Commons license!
- skankyBacon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2That's the same source. Just a direct link to one of the sections.
- Twango, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2That's right. It's like photos of PD artwork: the artwork is PD, the photo belongs to whoever owns it.
Same with scores: the publisher owns the work they put into making the score. If you made a xerox copy of a Mozart original (PD), it would belong to you. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Holy mother f.. Thanks for that link dood my father is gona have a heart attack when I tell him this.
- dstz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2A problem of classical music is that there are a whole lot of recordings for the same work (and some composer have hundreds of works available), and part of them aren't very driven, very good. But I'm sure that Internet will help a lot of people to discover themselves a taste for baroque (ex: JS Bach, Pergolesi), classical (ex: Mozart, Haydn), romantic (ex: Chopin, Borodin), and modern (ex: Debussy, Stravinsky) orchestral music.
- lusername, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Heh. Move zig for great justice! Until then it's kind of academic. I think they pulled the plug on the server. May be time to try the torrent posted above...
- dstz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Yes period orchestras are mostly very good. Amongst them I like Gardiner (with its Monteverdi choir) a lot.
- bliz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1nope, because i just modded u up...
edit: oops i replied to the one above instead...
mod me down - rrobster, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Everyone knows Rachmaninoff rules!
- foolfromhell, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1oh..... I didnt know since this one wouldnt load and mine had a different URL than that
- foolfromhell, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2http://www.mozart-archiv.de/serie19.htm
From a Wikipedia article.
This works too.
Just another source.... - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1The man wrote over 600 compositions in his short life of 35 years. You listen to one piece of work and don't like it, and you call him "sad?" It's easy to tell your a fool when you don't even know what dissonance means, and how it relates to music. You judged Mozart's work by listening to .167% of it... Good job.

- shemuhelos, on 10/14/2008, -0/+0Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart nicest music:
http://globaltotalpage.net/genre-download-classica ... - nes1k, on 03/17/2009, -0/+0Nice! Finally an MP3 player for those times that you want music, but not your fancy expansive player! This would be great for Boating, Working out, Working on cars (doing anything that might damage the MP3 player) nice! And you can have 2 or 3 handy with batteries, so when one goes out, just switch MP3 players, and replace batteries when you get home.
