@gyro, definitely try mozart's clarinet concerto or his requiem. I'm pretty new to the genre but those pieces helped me get into mozart. The 2nd movement in the clarinet concerto is pretty much the most beautiful thing I've ever heard (shout out to keyblade for recommending it!)

no, part dabbles in minimalism (his masterpiece, tabula rasa, was composed using very little), but
it definitely evokes emotion
Of course it evokes emotion but let's be honest all music does "evoke emotion". The manner in which Pärt and especially Gorecki go about evoking emotion however is, to put it bluntly, at times very cheesy. That's what Havey is referring to when he calls them
melodramatic.
This isn't necessarily a knock against them. I really don't mind either. But while their music is partially by design "cheesy" this is mostly rooted in the 21st century perception of classical music. The mid-late 20th century "regenerate" movement had such a huge
influence on music as a whole to the point where in retrospect it comes off as cheesy or comparatively boring to people who are more experienced with classical music as a whole.
The reason I responded to your post and recommend listening to his Requiem (or just more of his and his contemporaries' work in general) is that your preference for Pärt/Gorecki is of rather remote relevance to your dislike for this particular work. Same goes for
the other dude I responded to. It's like going into an Arcade Fire thread and telling the boys you prefer listening to Godspeed You! Black Emperor. I mean they play the same instruments in the same meta-genre but they just aren't close enough in any way for that
reference to be relevant. It's essentially inadvertent name-dropping that makes you appear extremely clueless.
This kind of "but i prefer x" mentality is present in a lot of people that tend to like a bit of classical music here and there and it's rather unfortunate because they usually cling onto that and refuse to delve deeper into classical music as a whole or give a
given composer's opus the necessary attention. I'm not trying to offend you or anyone here, rather just make you aware of the fact that Mozart has worked in pretty much all genres of classical music and in the process produced both more and less "affecting" works.
Essentially, your first sentence was all gucci but the following two were kinda retarded tbqh imo god bless
