I have 500GB and 100 cds of classical music mainly from early 20th century composers, but that barely scratches the surface of what’s out there.

What I have: Near complete collections of Mahler, Prokofiev, Shostakovich, Vaughan Williams, Ravel, Bartok, Webern, Dvorak, Penderecki, Copland, and lots of other huge orchestral works.

What I don’t have: Chamber works, anything pre-Beethoven (some exceptions, but not many), but request them anyway because hey, you might get lucky

What I’m looking for: symphonies by Rautavaara, Myaskovsky, Havergal Brian, Malcolm Arnold, Popov, etc.

For those of you with access to a university/college library, those cds aren’t doing them any good gathering dust on the shelves, so get plundering!

Edit:
Here’s everything posted by me thus far. If anyone else wants their links posted here, let me know.

Please let me know about any dead links or if you have any requests for 19th-20th century classical music/composers.

I have all of Hanson’s symphonies, and Rautavaara’s 7th and 8th, plus a few other works (Angels and Visitations, Piano Concerti, etc.) I have Arnold’s 1st and 2nd Symphonies.

I have Havergal Brian – DEFINITELY sure about 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 16th, 17th, 31st, 32nd. Think I have the 10th somewhere. Not sure about the rest – they might be on other hard disks. Also have numerous other Brian pieces.

The bootleg LP of the Gothic is amazing (the famous Aries recording.)

Matey, you have EXCELLENT taste, and I can just tell that this is going to become my favourite thread…

streichorchester

07-30-2008, 11:39 PM

Symphonies, Serenade for Strings, Manfred, The Snow Maiden, Piano Concertos 1 and 2, Concert Fantasie… but it’s not like I’m going to post ALL of them right now. You have to be specific.

Believe it or not, I don’t have a decent version of The Nutcracker (terrible orchestra) or Swan Lake (artifacts in compression), though I could post them if someone wanted them disparately enough. If someone has a good recording of the two, I’d appreciate him posting them instead. I’m also looking for Romeo and Juliet, tone poems, Queen of Spades, etc.

I have The Gothic too, obviously :D, it’s the only thing I have by him. But how are the rest?

tangotreats

07-30-2008, 11:57 PM

NOT a great deal like the Gothic!

Some of the later symphonies are very, very brutal. Not just in their tone, but in their construction. Some of them are less than ten minutes long – fragmentary, almost annoyed pieces. Like Brian was writing it down and thought, "Aw, I’ve had enough of that!" and suddenly there’s a new theme or just a big, unexpected orchestral howl of aggression, then it’s the end. It’s fascinating stuff.

The 4th is a lot like the Gothic – it’s choral, again, but with (slightly) smaller forces.

My own favourite is the 3rd – it started off as a concerto for two pianos, so in its final symphonic form, it retains very prominent parts for pianos. The scoring is absolutely magificent. The third movement is Brian chanelling Strauss – a lovely lilting waltz. The whole symphony lurches around from dissonant terror, MASSIVE orchestral grandeur (almost religious fervour), pastoral subtlety, vicious percussion, a jovial waltz, and back again – and yet, it ALL fits together so beautifully.

Since that’s my favourite, I’ll upload that one first, if that’s OK… 🙂

streichorchester

07-31-2008, 12:19 AM

Yes, please do.

Also, what other unknown choral symphonies do you have? I have Pettersson’s 12th, Myaskovsky’s 6th, Scriabin’s 1st, and Hamerik’s 7th (along with his amazing Requiem.) Still looking out for Holst’s Choral-Symphony and I hope it’s better than The Cloud Messenger.

Thank you so much for the Scythian and Quest.

My contribution of a lesser known romantic composer –

Joly Braga Santos
Symphony 4 & Symphonic Variations on a popular song from the Alentejo

Joly Braga Santos was born in Lisbon in 1924 and died there in 1988, at the height of his musical creativity. Although he composed only six symphonies, he was undoubtedly the leading Portuguese symphonist of the century and, in a way, of all time. Apart from an innate sense for good orchestration, his musical language is based on a strong sense of musical architecture as well as drama, with long melodic lines and a natural instinct for structural development as well as formal coherence. In his own words, he wanted to contribute "toward a Latin symphonism and to react against the predominant tendency, of the generation that preceded me, to reject monumentalism in music".

That’s a LOT of music. As I don’t know very well this composer, I trust your taste (wich I know is excellent ;)). Could you please select some of his works you find most interesting, especially if pastoral.

Also, a pastoral-like symphony with sax seems highly worth listening.

edit: oops, I didn’t notice the link at the bottom. Thanks a lot!

By the way, what do you mean by "non-symphonic orchestral"? That it’s played by a smaller orchestra?

streichorchester

08-03-2008, 12:03 AM

If I rip the Gothic Symphony, how would people prefer it: as individual mp3s or a large image file with cue sheet? The mp3s would be smaller, but the breaks in between tracks would be noticeable when you play them (CD1 is 25 tracks, CD2 is 21.)

Quality is good (well, just a slight problem if I may : "Vaughan Williams – Five Variants of ‘Dives and Lazarus’ – Theme.mp3" has a peak volume level of -13,5 dB and the others vars are moreless similar. But no big deal, can be easily fixed with mp3directcut or mp3gain).

After all I can split ’em and convert by myself:). So yes, ape would be nice:). And about Philip Glass – I’ve got full Akhnaten, Dracula – performed by Kronos Quartet, Illusionist, Notes of Scandal, Heroes Symphony, Koyani and Naqoykatsi, Solo Piano, Symphony no. 6 and 8 and Einstein on a Beach. But I’m not familiar with all those rapidshares etc. so I need a tutorial:).

Really nice music, very soothing and gracious. Particularly appreciated the Oboe Concerto.

That’s not a problem – it’s a sign of a sensible engineer in the recording studio. The peak volume is low because the piece is quiet. In classical music recordings, the quiet bits are quiet, and the loud bits are loud. Generally you won’t find much (any) dynamics compression going on turning the whole sound into a blasting muddy mess of white noise… 😉

What I’m looking for: symphonies by Hanson, Rautavaara, Myaskovsky, Havergal Brian, Malcolm Arnold, Popov, Kabalevsky’s 4th, and the rarest symphony of all: Kabalevsky’s 3rd.

Popov, eh? You might be interested to know that I own all three Popov CDs that were released by Olympia back in the mid 1990’s. They’re long out of print. I remember special ordering them after reading an enthusiastic Gramophone review for them. Give me some time and I’ll post up all three.

You say you have Dvorak, Prokofiev, Shostakovich, and Webern? Do you happen to have these CDs?

Vaclav Talich and Karel Ancerl conducting Dvorak’s Eighth Symphony DG’s Webern 6 CD box set conducted by Boulez

Also, what recordings do you have of Prokofiev’s Sixth Symphony and Shostakovich’s Fourth and Fifteenth?

As I said, give me some time and I’ll post up the Popov CDs. They should be ready by Friday.

Also years ago I borrowed at the library an incredible version of Dvorak’s 7 and 8 symphonies conducted by sir Colin Davis. Absolutly fantastic conducting and performance.

I recorded it on Lp (yes, it’s THAT long ago), and tried later to borrow it back but it was gone and replaced by an horrible version by an obscure eastern Europe orchestra.

Maybe you have the first one, and if so could you please up? thanks.

08-04-2008, 11:19 PM

Olympia CDs are hard to come by these days (see Kabalevsky’s 3rd) so it’d be awesome if you could upload those Popov, especially if you have his first symphony.

Vaclav Talich and Karel Ancerl conducting Dvorak’s Eighth Symphony DG’s Webern 6 CD box set conducted by Boulez

For Dvorak’s 8th I have the Zubin Mehta+LA Philharmonic one from Naxos, and the complete symphonies conducted by Istvan Kertesz with the LSO. The complete Webern by Boulez is exactly the one I have. I grabbed it from avaxsphere before it went down. Unfortunately I didn’t keep the CD image files and split it into wavs. It’s not like there was anything lost, and I can upload it if you want, but I’m guessing you might have preferred the ape+cue files. They’re posting them here http://pqpbach.opensadorselvagem.org/ (as mp3s I think.)

Also, what recordings do you have of Prokofiev’s Sixth Symphony and Shostakovich’s Fourth and Fifteenth?

For Prokofiev’s 6th I have the Rostropovich with the Orchestre National de France collection, and the silly White Box which is arguably my worst classical music purchase of all time, but it was cheap. For Shostakovich’s 4th I have the complete symphonies by Rostropovich (also includes the 15th) and for the 15th I have the Olympia with Mravinsky and Stravinsky’s Agon.

I know (believe me, I know) it’s tempting to battle these morons, but all you will do is make yourself upset, and fuel their fevered ranting. Their actions are more than enough to demonstrate their idiocy to the people around them. Particularly when said people are known bastards – vicious, ignorant fools with a superiority complex – who are best left to their own devices. To any sensible person, you’ve already won your argument – to everybody else, you will never win… Such is life, my friend. 🙂

streichorchester,

I’ve never listened to the whole cycle of Glazunov’s symphonies except the 5th. could you upload the 7th symphony (Pastorale) please?

Also besides the Pichas Zuckerman recording, how many other recordings of The Lark Ascending do you have? please list them down if you can.

And lastly, do you happen to have Glazunov’s Saxophone concerto?

Thanks so much, you’re thread is legendary!

Tsobanian, for the prokofiev Symphnoy No. 5, there are 2 recordings on P.Q.P Bach.org

Okay, I’m going to upload Glass’s Dance from Akhnaten then Glazunov’s 4th and 7th (because they’re on the same CD.) And yes, I have the saxophone concerto.

For The Lark Ascending I also have Nigel Kennedy/Rattle and the City Of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra from 1997.

Tsobanian:
I have Swan Lake, Manfred, Prokofiev’s 5th, The Year 1941, Lt. Kije, Love for Three Oranges (both suite and opera), Romeo and Juliet, Cinderella, Execution of Stepan Razin, October, 5 Fragments, The Fall of Berlin, The Unforgettable Year 1919 Suite

I don’t have Voyevoda or The Red Poppy (which is on my toget list for emusic actually)

If you have the alacrity upload some stuff such as: Swan Lake, The Year 1941, Lt. Kije Suite, Cinderella, Execution of Stepan Razin, October, 5 Fragments, The Fall of Berlin, The Unforgettable Year 1919 Suite.
I also surmise that you have "Ivan the Terrible"….

streichorchester, thanks very much for elaborating on your Bartok collection. I would be very eager to get my hands on just about all of it, but I don’t want to pressure you to upload them all at once since it’s hugely inconvenient. Whenever you get to uploading more things though, I would appreciate it if you could throw in a Bartok item or two for me.

Thanks very much!! 🙂

08-24-2008, 08:32 AM

No, sorry. I don’t have any of Britten’s Operas, not even Peter Grimes (in its entirety, that is.) I’m more an orchestral/ballet/oratorio person with very specific operatic tastes:

Prokofiev – Love for Three Oranges
Shostakoivch – Lady Macbeth of Mstensk
Vaughan Williams – The Pilgrim’s Progress
Wagner – Der Ring des Nibelungen
Poulenc – Les Dialogues des Carmelites

I have some others, but those are my favourites.

The Pilgrim’s Progress would be a good addition as well.

I don’t have any of Hindemith’s operas or Kammermusik, but I do have Mathis der Maler, Metamorfos???s Sinfonica, and Nobilissima Visione. I’ve been meaning to pick up his chamber works, but it’s just another thing on the list.

I will upload Vaughan Williams’s The Pilgrim’s Progress, Walton’s Symphony No. 2. I didn’t know there was a suite from Troilus and Cressida so I’m going to add that to the list of things to find too.

Dharma: Have you heard Myaskovsky’s 6th? That’s the only one I have at the moment.

Cristobalito2007

Yes please, I would be very grateful for Walton 2. I think I can get the Troilus and Cressida Suite from a friend. I think the forum would love either a suite or complete. Its amazing.

I’m beginning to regret not downloading that complete Myaskovsky symphony cycle from avaxhome before it was shut down. If someone was up to it, they could do a google search for "myaskovsky complete symphonic works rapidshare" and find those txt files that link to the rars.

Here’s Vaughan Williams’s opera A Pilgrim’s Progress which he based his Symphony No. 5 on. The Walton Symphony is going to take a little longer to compress and upload because it’s >300 megs.

As discussed in another thread, here’s a collection of classical pieces heard in James Horner’s score to Willow:

http://rapidshare.com/files/140382218/willow_-_classical_sources.rar

Bartok’s Cantata Profana – III. There Was Once An Old Man. Moderato (heard in the choral parts without lyrics, fastforward to 1:45)

Grieg – Peer Gynt – 12 – Arab Dance (heard on various occasions in Willow and Once Upon a Forest)

Janacek – Glagolitic Mass – IV. Veruju (Credo) (also heard in the choral parts without lyrics, fastforward to 3:21)

Le Mystere des Voix Bulgares – 11. Mir Stanke Le "Harvest Song From Thrace" (Willow’s theme played by a shakuhachi, probably one of the most blatant ripoffs of Horner’s career)

Prokofiev – October Revolution Cantata – VI. Revolution (the loud horn parts are used for Bavmorda’s theme/motif)

Rachmaninov – Symphony No. 1 – I. Grave – Allegro ma non troppo (the source of Horner’s infamous 4-note danger motif)

Schumann’s Symphony no. 3 "Rhenish" – I. Lebhaft – vivace (heard in Escape from the Tavern)

Also, smaller bits from Alexander Nevsky (Battle on the Ice) and Mahler’s Symphony No. 1 (the low rising line in the cellos/basses at the beginning of the first movement) can be heard. I have a note about Mozart’s Requiem making an appearance, but I can’t remember where at the moment.

edit: oh yeah, the opening of track 08 – Willow the Sorcerer is Mozart’s Requiem

kingnazgul: Sorry, I don’t have very many works by Messiaen or Crumb. That’s sort of getting into the late 20th century expressionist/avant-garde sound that I can only listen to in small doses.

Here are the works I have by Messiaen:
Quartet for the End of Time
Et Exspecto Resurrectionem Mortuorum
Chronochromie
La Ville d’en haut
???clairs sur l’Au-Del???…
Illuminations of the Beyond
Turangalila Symphonie
and the stuff on the 2001 soundtrack

Prokofiev’s Cantata for the 20th Anniversary of the October Revolution is my favourite piece by Prokofiev, narrowly beating out the Symphony No. 5 and Alexander Nevsky. In a sense, you can think of it as a combination of those two: powerful choruses, highly motivic development, and what I believe is the culmination of the Russian colourist period that began with Borodin and Mussorgsky, and ended with Shostakovich.

Some interesting things to watch for:

02 – The Philosophers: as heard in Horner’s score to Red Heat
05 – Interlude: I made a mistake including the Revolution track in the Willow collection, since this is actually where Bavmorda’s theme came from
06 – Revolution: This track is very powerful as it depicts the gunfire, sirens, and Stalin’s call to arms during the Russian revolution
07 – Victory: as heard in Horner’s The Land Before Time
09 – Symphony: this is Prokofiev at his best, writing much in the same style as the Symphony No. 5 and filmscores/ballets

Also included on the CD are excerpts from The Stone Flower ballet.

1337: I don’t have the Lalo. Actually, I don’t have anything by Lalo, probably because I hear him all the time on the radio. Him and Max Bruch, for some reason. They kind of fall into the catagory of "concertos everyone likes, but what else did they write?" Kabalevsky, on the other hand, I’m sure everyone would love his Requiem if I could only find it somehow.

Horner also uses the Morning Serenade in the 3rd scene of the 3rd act of Romeo and Juliet in The Land Before Time, not to mention the dozen or so references to Peter and the Wolf.

Streich, in your post about Kanno http://forums.ffshrine.org/showpost.php?p=1138374&postcount=219, you say this :

It is the near-pinnacle of orchestral achievement to sound like Prokofiev, Copland, Ravel, etc. but Kanno can accomplish this with such ease. It is only one step down from the top tier: Mahler (whom is strangely absent from Kanno’s long list of sources.)

Is Mahler’s music so great ? And if it’s case, could you upload a selection of his music for the neophyte ?

streichorchester

09-02-2008, 08:35 AM

Mahler and his work was one of my main areas of study in university, so here’s a semi-short bio:

Mahler is generally considered to be the ultimate evolution of the symphonic form that began with Haydn, Mozart, and continued through Beethoven, Schubert, Brahms, and Bruckner. But he took things one step further and combined this "absolute" musical form with programmatic ideas of operatic proportions; his biggest influence being Wagner. He was the end of the "first Viennese school," but didn’t come into mainstream popularity until Leonard Bernstein regularly performed concerts of his works. Now any major orchestra worth their salt performs a Mahler symphony at least once a season, the most common one being the ever-popular fifth (the first one I heard.)

Mahler’s symphonies are usually 1 to 1.5 hours long and are always scored for huge ensembles. Even the trombone-less fourth is massive, not in size, but in content. Mahler takes you for emotional rides employing funeral marches, l???ndler (kind of a like a folk waltz), German lieder, and extra long scherzos that show off his amazing ability to juggle 3-4 contrapuntal lines at once.

There are the recurring themes of nature, death, and the innocence of childhood in Mahler’s music. He always feared death, and many say he predicted three fates in his "tragic" Symphony No. 6 where he uses a massive hammer blow to the stage to represent 1) his being fired from directing the Vienna opera due to pre-war antisemitism, 2) the death of his daughter due to fever, 3) his own early death due to a bad heart. He is a tragic figure, and shortly after his death his beloved wife Alma (who regularly cheated on him) was an unreliable authority on his life and work, but the only authority there was.

Mahler actually didn’t care much for religion, and like many Jews living in the German empire converted to Lutheranism. He was a deist like most composers in that he believed in a God-like power that ruled over nature and the universe and man. His Symphony No. 2 "Resurrection" is not religious in nature at all, despite what many (Christians) would tell you. It was simply a ode to the death of a friend and the best way he knew how to cope with it. Similarly, though his Symphony No. 8 "Symphony of a Thousand" (which employs a large 200 person orchestra and 800 person chorus) begins with a choral outburst of "Veni Creator Spiritus" in Latin, it goes on to the story of Goethe’s Faust for the majority of the symphony.

Mahler wrote 9 symphonies, an unfinished 10th that others have attempted to complete, a symphony-like cycle called Das Lied von der Erde, and several lieder in the style of Schubert and Hugo Wolf. Since Beethoven, Schubert, and Bruckner all died before they could write a 10th symphony, Mahler feared writing the 9th hence the reason Das Lied is not considered one of his symphonies.

I could go on to break down each of his symphonies, but I’ll save that for if and when I get to posting them. You can hear Mahler influences in composers such as Arnold Shoenberg, Anton Webern, Leonard Bernstein, Dmitri Shostakoivch, James Horner, and pretty much wherever there is ingenious motivic development. The thing about the scores is that they’re the most detailed scores you’ve ever seen, with an articulation or performance indication on practically every note, which causes extra-long rehearsals. But the effect is great and you can hear every solo instrument, every combination of instruments, and every section reaching their full potential.

Here’s a short list with descriptions in case any of them interest you in particular:

Symphony No. 1
Mahler shows his love of nature through the German lieder he wrote and turns it into a symphony with a dance, a funeral procession, and a massive grand finale where the horn section is told to hold their instruments in the air.

Symphony No. 2 "Resurrection"
This one is darker in tone as it begins with a funeral procession*, a light-hearted, yet deceiving dance, a huge scherzo again based on his lieder, a song, and an operatic finale with chorus.

*As with most of Mahler’s music, it’s difficult to describe a single movement as being one thing like a funeral procession or dance. While it might begin one way, it is always evolving into something else, and the genius lies in Mahler’s ability to interweave several contrasting ideas.

Symphony No. 3
This symphony is almost 2 hours long, but every movement is like its own little symphony. In this Mahler explores mountains, flowers, animals, man, and love. You really have to hear it to get the full effect.

Symphony No. 4
This one is not as massive as the first three, but it carries an important message of death and heaven. Originally Mahler wrote a song about heaven for the end of the Symphony No. 3, but felt it would work better on its own. So he took material from the song and made three movements out of it, then put the song at the end. Genius. Listen for death playing the fiddle in the scherzo.

Symphony No. 5
This is the most popular of Mahler’s symphonies, and for good reason. It begins with a fanfare and march full of memorable themes, then another march, then a scherzo, then a heart-wrenching adagio (the famous Adagietto), and a massive ending based on another song Mahler wrote. Since in Mahler’s time it was still considered strange to write war-like music for the concert hall, it is thought that this symphony predicts the coming world wars. Indeed, if you wrote this kind of music in the early 1900s people would be wondering what was wrong with you and wonder why you’re so violent. Funny enough, Mahler did feel himself unbalanced enough to regularly visit with Sigmund Freud.

Symphony No. 6 "Tragic" (in A minor)
Almost as if to cash in on the success of the fifth, Mahler wrote this one much in the same way. The march at the beginning is memorable, but something new emerges and that’s the idea of "fate" (using an A major chord crescendoing to an A minor chord, then fading out.) There are many themes in this one, including a theme for Alma, and as I said earlier, the hammer blows in the third movement represent Mahler’s struggle against fate. The finale movement is quick and sounds like something out of a movie score (reusing themes from the first three movements.)

Symphony No. 7
This one is not generally liked by Mahler enthusiasts because it seems like more of the same. The opening march is not particularly likable, but it’s still genius in orchestration and development. Mahler again plays with the idea of a central "scherzo", but the biggest draw is the Wagner-like finale.

Symphony No. 8 "Symphony of a Thousand"
This symphony is glorious because you have two separate choirs, 4 soloists, and a children’s choir dueling out their contrapuntal lines against the orchestra. It’s very hard to follow along with the score and you wonder how a human could have written such a thing. It’s epic, but also thematically intricate. Mahler is one of the only composers who can have 1000 people performing one minute, and the next minute 1 or 2. This is also the origin of the famous Schindler’s List theme (which Horner used in Balto, Apollo 13, and Enemy at the Gates.)

Das Lied von der Erde (for two solo vocalists and orchestra)
Mahler gets philosophical on us in writing about the beauty of life and nature based on Hans Bethge’s volume of Chinese poetry. There are many themes, but the main attraction is the beauty of the sound. Except for the opening movement, this isn’t your usual dosage of funeral marches and dances and scherzos. But to many people, this is their favourite Mahler piece.

Symphony No. 9
Mahler didn’t live to see this performed, but many feel he made peace with the world by the end of it. It is similar in some respects to Bruckner’s 9th, ending with a long and tear-jerking adagio. The off-rhythm opening is said to represent Mahler’s failing heart, and the middle lander has some funky time signatures as well.

Symphony No. 10
Only the first movement and middle "purgatorio" section was completed, but from sketches of the other movements scholars have attempted to recreate Mahler’s world, including the melancholic ending where large drums represent the funeral of a fireman Mahler heard outside his New York apartment window one morning.

Mahler’s Symphony No. 5 in c# minor (that’s 7 4 sharps!)
Leonard Bernstein and the New York Philharmonic

http://rapidshare.com/files/142423844/Mahler_Symphony_No._5_-_Leonard_Bernstein.part2.rar

(note: if you’re having trouble extracting the first movement because of its absurdly long filename, try extracting it to your root C:\)

This symphony is generally considered to be the most representative of Mahler’s style. It’s 5 movements (Mahler was fond of breaking traditional symphonic form and adding an extra movement or two) but split into 3 parts:

Part 1

I. Trauermarsche
It all begins with a fanfare for solo trumpet that was foreshadowed in the Symphony No. 4. Mahler was frightened, if not a bit fascinated with death, and loved to begin his symphonies with a march in a minor key representative of a funeral procession. In true sonata-allegro form, the secondary theme appears around 1:20. Notice how Mahler plays with dynamics, switching between f and p for emotional effect. Where the classical symphony calls for a direct repeat of the primary and secondary themes, Mahler returns to the primary and then secondary in variation. Keep in mind that every little bit of instrumental ornamentation is its own motif that is heard throughout the movement in different voices and variations.

6:10 is the beginning of the development section, and though it hints at snippets of the trumpet fanfare, the theme here is new. The fast-moving violins and winds will also play a role in the final movement. At 7:47 there is a climax that marks the return of the primary theme. The secondary theme returns at 8:55, and Bernstein takes this really slow. The trumpet theme is played in the solo timpani at 11:00 marking the end of the development and the beginning of the coda. There is another climax at 12:50 that again leads into the fanfare, and then the end.

II. Sturmisch bewegt (moving "stormingly" or "stormishly")
The opening movement wasn’t exactly an allegro, so this is essentially a continuation of the idea of symphonic formality. The falling winds at 1:15 also will play a role in the final movement. At 1:35 a kind of variation plays on the funeral march from the previous movement while the winds play this neat motif figure over and over. It gets somewhat "romantic" like something Rachmaninov would write, but before too long returns to the quick, Wagner-ish action it opened with. At 4:25 a haunting solo for the cellos plays over a quiet timpani roll until 5:50 when the funeral march returns and things get more agitated. Here we can also hear foreshadowing of some ideas that will appear in the Adagietto and Symphony No. 6.

At 8:40 the orchestration begins to sound like John Williams in that the voices are all over the place, and when the funeral march returns take notice of everything else that is going on motivically. Each sound is found earlier in the movement and maybe has to be seen in the score to be appreciated for its complexity. At 11:00 a variation in the solo cello melody is heard with some awesome counterpoint in the trombones. At 12:00 things get very Wagner-ian as it wraps up Part 1 with a brass chorale and fanfare; a very awesome moment. If you didn’t know better, you might have thought this was the ending. But those wind runs interject yet again and the agitation persists. There is some more foreshadowing of the 6th, and a familiar motif ends the movement.

Part 2

III. Scherzo
The scherzos are really where Mahler’s orchestration shines, as if it hasn’t shone enough by now. Here he plays with dance-like melodies in triple-metre, but this movement is like its own self-contained, little symphony complete with allegros, adagios, and a grand finale. Notice a little bit of fugal writing between the top and bottom strings. There is also a little quoting of the "devil’s violin" from the 4th symphony’s scherzo. 2:40 is the beginning of the secondary theme which takes after the German l???ndler. Mahler’s dance music always gives the impression he could have made it big as an alternative to Johann Strauss, but Mahler instead tells a story with the music which is why it can never seem to settle down. It’s always going places, always developing, and any indication of a dance is to establish the rural setting for which the story takes place.

5:05 is the beginning of a new theme (B) that is almost Slovakian in nature since the harmonies are not your typical candential-Germanic. This is the style of Mahler’s "Wunderhorn lieder", the songs he wrote before the symphonies about nature, man, and death. 5:45 is the first climax of the scherzo (Mahler’s scherzos often have this sort of "moment of resolution" over a pedal.) The horn solo here is tragic and very lovely. At 7:20, the strings imitate a mandolin or some kind of guitar used for folk dances. The interchanging themes almost make you think there are two dances going on at the same time. And what else could 9:20 represent but a harsh German winter? The "lieder" continues on at 10:08 in the horns, and you can almost imagine a baritone singing that line.

10:40 is an interesting return to the quick dance as it becomes more waltz-like than l???ndler. As things become more agitated there is more motivic development of ideas heard at the beginning of the movement until 11:50 when there is a complete return to the beginning (A’) and the dance develops more. At 14:15 all of a sudden we’re back in the B section of the scherzo with the lieder singing over some new harmonies. This doesn’t last long as the dance takes over once again. The buildup at 15:45 is great and reminiscent of Holst (who actually came later.)

16:00 marks the beginning of a neat effect while the song in the horn tries to play out, but it is interrupted by the dance. If you want to get metaphorical, the dance is moving forward quickly into the new century while the slow song of the wise old man is holding things back as if to warn about the future. 18:11 to the end is quite a rush as Mahler brings back the themes from earlier and resolves them with a fanfare.

Part 3

IV. Adagietto
There isn’t much to say about this except it is scored for only strings and harp and is one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written, and was used in the film Death in Venice. It often draws comparisons with Barber’s Adagio for Strings in the use of chromatic harmonies to pull and release. There is some foreshadowing of the adagio in the 6th. If you like this sort of music from Mahler, also check out the final movement from the 3rd, the adagio movement from the 4th, the adagio from the 6th, the adagio finale from the 9th, and the opening movement of the 10th (the last thing Mahler wrote that wasn’t just sketches.) Many of the themes in this movement will return for the 5th and final movement.

V. Rondo-Finale
In sharp contrast to the seriousness of what preceded it, this movement starts off very playful in the manner of Mahler’s first symphony. Again we hear some "Wunderhorn" lieder and some fugal interplay in the strings. The Symphony No. 5 also marks the end of Mahler’s basing his symphonies on the songs he wrote, or what are known as the "Wunderhorn symphonies." As with each of the first 5 of Mahler’s symphonies, the light-hearted tone of the final movement represents victory and the celebration of life. It is the 6th that is the bleakest and more representative of death. This movement moves along quite quickly and uninterrupted as it reiterates some ideas from the adagio over the double-bowing cellos. A neat aspect of this is that with each incarnation of the theme, it changes key. It’s almost as if Mahler couldn’t yet allow things to end, so he’d begin anew in a new key.

At 9:00 things begin to sound as though they’re wrapping up as it builds to the final variation of the song. There is even more fugul interplay over a rolling timpani in a kind of extended build up to the end. At 11:10 things are interrupted briefly for some great stringless wind playing. What’s great about Mahler is that one minute the entire orchestra is chugging along, then suddenly a wind octet or some other chamber ensemble takes over. It really adds to the "bigness" of the sound by drawing this contrast between formal styles. 13:49 is a glorious brass choral of 1812 Overture proportions. I don’t know how he does it, but Mahler always manages to find the best harmonies to end a symphony with (see the ending chorals from the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 7th, and 8th.) At 14:48 the wind runs here heard back in the 2nd movement are a nice touch, and a great way to have the winds do something without being overpowered by the brass.

And that’s all there is to it. Many of the best orchestrations of all time within one symphony. You could spend a lifetime analyzing the score, and no one has come close in classical or film music to matching the ingenuity of the motivic development herein.

We’re both wrong, it’s 4 sharps (7 minus 3) but who’s counting? 😀 I don’t know what I was thinking of. Anyway, thanks for catching my error.

A neat theory about the 5th is that it’s connected to the 9th by its key signature. The 5th begins in C# minor and ends in D major, whereas the 9th begins in D major and ends in Db minor (the enharmonic equivalent of C# minor.)

Richard Strauss is the one composer who gives me the most trouble getting into his music. I’ve heard Also sprach Zarathustra, Don Quixote, Death and Transfiguration, Der Rosenkavalier, Metamorphosen, and The Alpine Symphony many times, and they always bore me stupid. You’d think for someone who likes Wagner, Bruckner, and Mahler that Strauss would be no problem. I’m going to try Ein Heldenleben and see how that goes, maybe even write down my likes/dislikes about his style. Any other suggestions?

Hi everyone, I’m sorry if I seem to be interrupting your pretty hardcore classical thread with some silliness, but I have a special interest in popular classical themes that can be commonly heard in cartoons, TV commercials shows, movies, etc. It’s always been a problem for me to acquire many of the classical pieces that I hear on TV, movies, etc. (which I know are classical and not from any particular soundtrack), simply because I don’t know their names and they usually don’t appear on TV credits. Many examples of what I mean can be found here:

http://www.kickassclassical.com (http://www.kickassclassical.com/classical-music-popular-famous-best-composers-a-z.html) (quite limited if you ask me 😀 )

My question is, should I use this thread to post my collection and encourage others to share their popular classical music here, or should I start a new thread to do that, so that you keep managing these much more obscure requests?

Thanks for spreading the love for classical music!

It’s a classical music thread, so post as much classical stuff as you want. There’s really no limitation on era. It’d be nice if we had some Baroque and pre-Baroque stuff posted as well since my collection is severely limited in those areas, but pop classical would be a welcome addition.

arthierr:
There is not a lot of classical ripping going on in Krull. There is a brief quote from the ending of Wagner’s Gotterdammerung in Ride of the Firemares and a quote from Holst’s Mars for the bad guy music. That’s really it. No stolen melodies on the level of Willow or The Land Before Time.

I downloaded a whole bunch of Myaskovsky’s symphonies from emusic and decided to start off with the Symphony No. 5, because hey, the 5th is usually the best and most representative of a composer’s style: Beethoven, Schubert, Vaughan Williams, Prokofiev, Shostakovich, Mahler, etc.

All I can say is it’s not as action-packed as Shostakovich, and not as melodic as Prokofiev. It doesn’t sound as Russian as the 6th, and drags through the impressionist tuttis a bit like Bax.

I can’t seem to find much discussion on his work through google, and what I’m interested in is how other people might rank his symphonic output as they would Mahler’s or Shostakovich’s. Is the 6th really the best? I have high hopes for the 10th.

Yes I really didn’t know that myself ’til recently…. And I really want to hear Mussorgksy’s original 1867 version.

http://www.answers.com/topic/night-on-bald-mountain-noch-na-l-soy-gore-symphonic-poem-edited-by-stokowski

Upon reading Gogol’s classic Russian short story "St. John’s Eve" in 1858, the young Modest Mussorgsky found the perfect narrative vehicle for the dark, dense musical language he was beginning to develop. The shortest night of the year, June 23, St. John’s Eve is known in Russian folklore as the night in which witches and demons gather on Bald Mountain (now known as Mount Triglav, near Kiev), for a yearly "Black Mass" and devilish revelry lasting until dawn. Despite the vividness of the scenario and Mussorgsky’s original realization of it in 1867, the composer struggled to cast the music in its ideal voice, off and on, for the rest of his career. It appeared unfinished in various forms, including a version with chorus meant for a ballet, as well as an operatic intermezzo. And although a few conductors in recent years, including Claudio Abbado and Esa-Pekka Salonen, have given successful performances of the original 1867 version, the one most familiar to modern audiences is the version completed in 1886 by Mussorgsky’s friend, Rimsky-Korsakov, known as Night on Bald Mountain. The famous conductor Leopold Stokowski, however, was so unsatisfied with the 1886 orchestration that he traveled to Russia, studied Mussorgsky’s manuscripts himself, and in 1938, prepared his own orchestration. Writing in the notes accompanying his 1954 recording of the work, Stokowski explained that Rimsky-Korsakov "had more technical skill than Mussorgsky, and so generously, and with good intentions, gave of his precious time to assist his friend." The problem, however, was that Rimsky-Korsakov "sometimes misunderstood Mussorgsky’s uncompromising originality in harmony and rhythm." In other words, Rimsky-Korsakov’s orchestrational skill rendered the diabolical scene altogether too tidily. Stokowski’s version sought to mediate between Mussorgsky’s visceral, weighty sonority and Rimsky-Korsakov’s skill at instrumental balance and contrast. There is, perhaps, a natural affinity between Stokowski’s orchestral sound — which is often characterized as bombastic, vivid, with a low center of gravity, and a broadness of gesture — and Mussorgsky’s compositional style, which for Stokowski betrays an obsession with "the dark, fantastic, grotesque, mysterious, and terrifying side of life." Ultimately, however, Stokowski’s more exaggerated orchestral realization of Mussorgsky’s demonic fascinations serve to contrast all the more starkly the visions of dawn that end the work: the early morning church bells, the bird call of an oboe solo, and the peasant song of a lone flute. ~ All Music Guide

http://www.answers.com/topic/st-john-s-night-on-the-bare-mountain-ivanova-noch-na-lisoy-gore-symphonic-poem-for-orchestra

Like nearly every piece Mussorgsky wrote, the compositional history of Night on Bald Mountain is convoluted to the point of near total confusion.
The work was first mentioned by the 19-year-old Mussorgsky on Christmas Day 1858 when he and his brother and a few other friends including Mussorgsky’s composition teacher Mily Balakirev, proposed a three-act opera on the subject of Gogol’s St. John’s Eve. A year and a half later, Mussorgsky writes to Balakirev to tell him that he has been commissioned "to set to music of whole of act of [Baron] Mengden’s drama The Witch depicting a witches’ Sabbath on St. John’s Night." There is not, however, any trace of either a commission nor a drama by Mengden called The Witch. Six years later, Mussorgsky mentions the piece again, this time as an orchestra tone-poem, in a letter dated April 20, 1866, to Balakirev: "I have started outlining the witches. Got into trouble. Satan’s journey does not please me yet."
After completing the original version of the work on June 23, 1867, now called St. John’s Night, that is, midsummer night, the night of the witches’ Sabbath, Mussorgsky wrote the following description of the work to Rimsky-Korsakov, his friend and fellow composition student with Balakirev:
"All your favorite bits came off splendidly in the scoring. In the Black mass there is a bit in B minor (the witches glorifying Satan), thoroughly foul and barbarous….The form is rather original….The whole thing is fiery, brisk, close-knit without German transactions. In my opinion St. John’s Night is something new, and ought to produce a satisfactory impression on any thinking musician."

Mussorgsky also wrote a description of the work to his friend Professor Nikolsky:
"My St. John’s Night on the Bald Mountain (A far better title than The Witches) is, in form and character, Russian and original;…I wrote it very quickly[!], straight-away in full score without preliminary rough drafts, in twelve days. It seethed within me, and I worked day and night, hardly knowing what was happening within me. And now I see in my sinful prank an independent Russian product, free from German profundity and routine, and, like my Savishna (the song O Darling Savishna!), grown on our country’s soil and nurtured on Russian bread.
At the head of my score I’ve put its contents: 1. Assembly of the witches, their talk and gossip; 2. Satan’s journey; 3. Obscene praises of Satan [titled in the score Black mass]; and 4. Sabbath….The form and character of composition are both Russian and original."

The original St. John’s Night is indeed wholly Russian and highly original. Compared with Rimsky’s tepid reorchestration and turgid recomposition, it is an infinitely more characteristic and effective work

http://www.answers.com/topic/sorochints-fair-dream-of-the-peasant-gritsko-night-on-bald-mountain-for-chorus-orchestra

The history of the composition of Night on Bald Mountain is as confused and confusing as any piece Mussorgsky ever wrote. Originally conceived as an opera on a subject from Gogol in 1858 when Mussorgsky was an army cadet of 19, re-conceived in 1860 as incidental music to a drama which apparently didn’t exist, re-re-conceived as a tone poem in 1866 and completed as a tone poem in the early summer of 1867, the work was then a wholly Russian and highly original orchestral tone poem which, in Mussorgsky’s words, is "free from German profundity and routine."

That was, not, however, the end of St. John’s Night. Mussorgsky revised his 1867 original version in approximately 1872 as his part of the joint commission for the composers of Balakirev’s Mighty Handful, the ballet opera called Mlada. This version is lost. However, it is apparently the basis of the third and final version of the work.

In the late spring of 1880, less than a year before Mussorgsky’s death at 42 from alcoholism, Mussorgsky unaccountably decided to re-re-re-conceive the work as an entr’acte with bass-baritone soloist, children’s choir, mixed choir, and orchestra for his opera The Sorochintsky Fair. Based on Gogol story of a devil turned out of hell who had become a drunkard, Mussorgsky apparently thought that what had been St. John’s Night would work as what was in effect a dream sequence in his never-to-be-completed opera.

In a letter to his friend Vladimir Stasov, Mussorgsky describes the work which is now called The Parobok’s Dream Vision (The Peasant Boy’s Dream Vision):

"The parobok sleeps at the foot of a hillock…In his sleep appear to him:

1. Subterranean roar of non-human voices, uttering non-human words.

2. The subterranean kingdom of darkness comes into its own — mocking the sleeping parobok.

3. Foreshadowing of the appearance of Chernobog (a Russian folk devil) and Satan.

4. The parobok left by the spirits of darkness. Appearance of Chernobog.

5. Worship of Chernobog and black mass.

6. Sabbath.

7. At the wildest moment of the Sabbath the sound of a Christian church bell. Chernobog suddenly disappears.

8. Suffering of the demons.

9. Voices of the clergy in church.

10. Disappearance of the demons and the parobok’s awakening."

Every bit as savagely original and brutally Russian as the 1867 version, Mussorgsky’s 1880 version seems not only extraneous to the plot of The Sorochintsky Fair, its size would seem too great for the opera to contain. However, since Mussorgsky never completed the opera, it is impossible to guess how The Parobok’s Dream Vision might have fit into the opera

About the Overture 1812 Op. 49, I have the version with Kiev Chorus and the Children’s Choir of Greater Cincinnati.

streichorchester: You seem to be a big Mahler fan. What is your opinion of Mahler’s re-orchestration of Beethoven’s 9th?

Ok, I know, I’m not Streich – but I am a great advocate of Mahler, and am familiar with this arrangement.

I’ve always, always, questioned why it was made in the first place. Mahler remains one of the greatest orchestrators of all time – but what was the purpose of this?

He had two choices – a) Reimagine the piece in his own style. b) Do virtually nothing, just thicken up the orchestration slightly but leave it basically unchanged. It would’ve been interesting had he gone with the first option – although purists would have derided it, I’d quite like to hear Beethoven’s 9th, as filtered through Mahler’s psyche. That would be quite exciting. However, he appears to have taken the second option and basically done bugger-all. This is still Beethoven’s 9th symphony – the changes are awfully pedestrian. He changed a few dynamics here and there, thickened up the woodwind compliment, and threw a Tuba into the finale. The implication is that there was something wrong with Beethoven’s arrangement. Yes, the guy was deaf, but is that any reason to pee around with his symphony? Wasn’t he (isn’t he) recognised as one of the great geniuses of music?

I can see that this arrangement would be useful if performing at a concert where you’ve got a few spare woodwind players sitting around (say, for another piece in the same concert) so at least they have something to do… But it’s basically pointless, and barely existant change.

It’s change enough to infuriate the purists (Mahler’s orchestration? Sacrilige – Beethoven’s arrangement of his own symphony is obviously definitive) and change too little to excite Mahler fans. I don’t see why he needs his name all over it when all he did was shift a few dynamics around and chuck a pointless extra instrument into the last movement. If I’d done it, I would have done so without credit and just published it as an additional performing version with minor orchestration tweaks.

Why it’s lauded as "Mahler’s Re-Orchestration" I do not know – changing a few "ff" markings into "fff" markings and copying the bassline over to another instrument is barely orchestration at all – and it’s definitely not worthy of the term "re-orchestration" – implying something built from the ground up.

Beethoven’s 9th is a great symphony. It’s a great symphony in its original arrangement, and you won’t be disappointed if you listen a performance including Mahler’s tweaks… But in summary, I don’t see how it has justified its own existence. 🙂

Thanks for contributing to the discussion. Your post has given my a lot to think about, and in the meantime I’ve actually found a copy of one of the (I think two) common recordings.

During the 20th century, as classical music has been increasingly confined to acedamia, classical musical practice and objective classical musical study have become conflated. The performer is free to interpret within the subtle and narrow constraints of the score, but certainly not to re-interpret or improvise. A book I read concerning Franz Liszt’s concerts decried his practice of performing works of the past in his contemporary style and freely improvising based on the themes contained within, saying it would be "unthinkable today" and could lead only to "musical anarchy". It seems a great number of musicologists want to make classical music into an untouchable pristine museum exhibit of "authentic historical practice". Liszt would have disagreed. So, too, it seems, would Mahler.

What Mahler seems to have done is no more or less than adapt Beethoven’s score to the idioms of the larger and more versatile late romantic orchestra of his day. Where there were two timpani, there are now six. Where there were two natural horns, there are now six valved french horns. (Parts are written for them that would have been physically impossible with Beethoven’s horns) There are also extra doublings in the winds and the addition of bass clarinet. Finally there are some additional string doublings and counter-melodies.

If one goes into this expecting Mahler’s unmistakable music fingerprint or reinterpretation on the scale of Barry Cooper’s completion of the first movement of Beethoven’s 10th, the work will be a great letdown. But what we really have is not so much a Mahler piece, but simply a fuller, bigger, (and in my opinion) more epic and heroic Beethoven 9th. It’s probably a waste of time to try to consider what Beethoven might have done himself is he’d had Mahler’s orchestra or still had his hearing when he had written the work, but to take the piece at face value, as a more grandiose version of one of the greatest pieces in the classical repertoire, I’m not sure if its existence really needs to be justified, and I’d go so far as to say I prefer it to the original. Then again, I am utterly unconcerned with musical historical accuracy for its own sake. I’d rather just hear great music. If only there was a Karajan or Bernstein recording of it!

I’ve I get some time later, I’ll go ahead and upload it so everyone else can hear what we’re talking about.

A book I read concerning Franz Liszt’s concerts decried his practice of performing works of the past in his contemporary style and freely improvising based on the themes contained within, saying it would be "unthinkable today" and could lead only to "musical anarchy". It seems a great number of musicologists want to make classical music into an untouchable pristine museum exhibit of "authentic historical practice". Liszt would have disagreed. So, too, it seems, would Mahler.

This is very true – music is, after all, something that lives and breathes. It’s open to interpretation and is coloured by the people performing it.

Purism is a funny thing, because I can see its great points, and also its terrible points. People shouldn’t get locked into expecting a piece of music to sound a certain way. Music isn’t music until somebody plays it – that’s when a bunch of academia on paper is translated into emotions by human interpreters. On the other hand, where does "meddling" around with a piece of music become *too* much?

Some conductors (Stokowski springs to mind) have been known to bugger with scores prior to performance, just because they felt like it. Stokowski, in particular, committed some terrible sins against The Planets – reorchestrating parts, adding instruments, taking them away, messing with tempi, etc – and (unforgivably) re-writing the conclusion of Neptune, so instead of fading off into nothing, it has a proper conclusion and finishes on a chord. That’s going beyond interpretation, into the realm of arrogance. It’s not about the music any more – it’s all about the conductor. "Look what I can do!" he says – somehow thinking himself better than the person who wrote the piece.

Interpretation is possible – to quite a considerable degree – without interfering with the composer’s vision. You have to at least respect the piece – I get the impression that Stokowski didn’t with The Planets, for instance – as he tried to turn it into his own showpiece – but succeeded only in ruining it with horrific reorchestration that made it sound like a dodgy music hall comedy.

By contrast, Bernard Herrmann conducted The Planets in a recording which is loved by some, and hated by an equally vocal group. But it’s down to interpretational difference – not intentional piss-balling with the score. Herrmann was a man of considerable ego, and made his interpretation of The Planets very much his own – but at the same time maintained respect for the original work. It’s difficult.

If anybody’s interested, I’ll upload them. I have Herrmann’s version on CD, but Stokowski’s is on Vinyl – it’s about time I dug it out…

Getting back to Mahler – and specifically his work on Beethoven’s 9th…

But what we really have is not so much a Mahler piece, but simply a fuller, bigger, (and in my opinion) more epic and heroic Beethoven 9th.

Indeed. I find it curious that history (or popular interpretation) appears to record Mahler’s work as considerably greater than it is. There is no creativity in his arrangement – it’s a completely workmanlike, mostly transparent effort (as it should be) that, as you say, simply helps Beethoven fit in a little better with the concept of the late romantic symphony orchestra.

It’s probably a waste of time to try to consider what Beethoven might have done himself is he’d had Mahler’s orchestra or still had his hearing when he had written the work…

It’s probably safe to say that, had Beethoven had access to the orchestra of Mahler’s time, he would most definitely have made use of it. Throughout his life he pushed the boundaries (sometimes further than was acceptable at the time!) and almost single-handedly kick started the transition from the classical to romantic eras. Without Beethoven, there would’ve been no Berlioz, and without Berlioz, there would’ve been no Wagner, and so on. I think it’s pretty much a foregone conclusion that if Ludwig had been offered this massive ensemble, he would have made the most of it, and still wanted more.

As to the hearing loss, you can certainly hear the effect it was having upon him in his later works. In a way, it made him less constrained – as his deafness developed, so his music became more brutal, extreme, and fragmentary. He stopped worrying about the practicalities of sound and concentrated on what he wanted to say. This made his music particularly hard on the ears (of the era). I wonder if his later works would’ve been as magnificent as they were had his struggle with deafness not happened. His BIG innovations started when his hearing loss became acute.

…but to take the piece at face value, as a more grandiose version of one of the greatest pieces in the classical repertoire, I’m not sure if its existence really needs to be justified, and I’d go so far as to say I prefer it to the original.

Oh, absolutely. I was merely musing over the extent to which the piece is still very much Beethoven’s, when the implication of a term like "Gustav Mahler’s 1895 Re-orchestration" is that you’d be getting something far, far different. It’s certainly enough to put off the purists. You could get away with calling it a performing version for modern orchestra and it wouldn’t raise an eyebrow.

I think it sounds more polished than the original, which in my eyes isn’t necessarily a good thing. One of the things I like about Beethoven (particularly later works) is that exciting, "seat-of-the-pants" feeling of spontaneous excitement, as if he’s thinking of it about two seconds before you’re hearing it. That raw, idiosyncratic nature is part of what defines Beethoven. After the rough edges have been smoothed out, it feels a little less passionate to my ears. Though I do enjoy it from a technical perspective (there’s no doubt that the changes – though minor – do create a more pleasing sound for somebody accustomed to contemporary orchestral performances) but I do feel that there has been slight loss sustained in the process.

Then again, I am utterly unconcerned with musical historical accuracy for its own sake. I’d rather just hear great music. If only there was a Karajan or Bernstein recording of it!

Well, great music needs to be preserved. Beethoven’s original MUST survive. But there’s nothing wrong with having a number of different impressions – as long as there is some acceptance that the original piece has the most right to exist. It may not even present the piece in its best light, but the efforts of the original composer should be remembered.

I would really like to hear a better version of this, too. The Brno Philharmonic is a good orchestra, but it’s not exactly world class – in terms of performance, interpretation, and recording. Something like this really needs the deluxe treatment. I’m surprised Karajan never touched it; I would have thought it would have been a dream project for him and the Berlin Philharmonic. Imagine that…

The Wagner piano transcription of the same piece is fascinating. I was thinking about it only a week or so ago – I’d never heard it, but had read a great deal about it and was quite keen to experience it. It’s surprisingly airy – this is no crazy Liszt transcription, and it’s distinctly un-Wagnerian – once again, as it should be. It sounds to me like it’s cutting straight to the point – which is quite a miraculous accomplishment.

Thank you to 1337 for posting it. 🙂

I haven’t heard the Mahler or Wagner reorchestrations of Beethoven’s 9th or seen the scores. I’ll get to it as soon as I have time, but I’m extremely busy right now.

My general principle on reinterpretations or reorchestrations is that they’re perfectly acceptable if they work. Obviously, great composers like Mahler and everyone who ever touched Mussorgsky’s music thought something was missing (or flat out wrong), and composers are competitive by nature, so why not add those missing parts and show off a little? Of course, it helps that Mahler and Wagner are well respected composers in the first place.

Also, maybe they felt that they ran out of Beethoven, so reimagining his music is just something to keep it fresh. As long as they don’t go all Berio on it, I’m for it.

If you can either upload something or just point me in the right direction of what to look for I would be most humble.

I’m working on getting Interview With the Vampire right now. I did check out the Concerto Grosso and it was very nice but none of the clips I found had any harpsichord in it, mostly just violins. But that’s okay, It was good stuff! lol yes, I guess Vampire music best describes it. I just love how it sounds, so powerful and meaningful, you know?

Thacrudd, Your best bet is music of the baroque era, some Bach or Vivaldi will do good for you (I never liked baroque music myself though…). For the Harpsichord, I’d recommend checking out Scarlatti’s Sonatas.

I’m assuming by vampire music you mean stuff from Castlevania? lots of Yamane’s work on the 3d Castlevanias are close to Bach’s music.

EDIT: For Rachmaninov, I recommend listening to his late works, especially the 2nd movement of the Symphonic Dances (Orchestral version), Op. 45. (the piece seems to remind me of an undead waltz)

Thank you all for your help, I really appreciate you all pointing me in the right direction. I really enjoy the "haunting" sound for some reason, maybe because I have been fond of the Castlevania series for a long time.

@streichorchester – The Rondo is amazing, really moving stuff!

Hello everyone, I don’t know if this is the right thread to ask… but I am a pianist, and I’m looking for the "Music Minus One" cds… they’re the accompaniments for the piano concertos for you to play along with them.
If anyone has them… or if you know where I can download them please tell me. I would buy them, but I live in Colombia and I can’t find them anywhere.

Thanks a lot

Anybody have a decent version of Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture without canons and Romeo and Juliet Fantasy Overture?

Here’s something I found: Salvation is Created, composed by Pavel Grigorievich Chesnokov, in 1912.

Orchestration for Mozart’s Turkish March. The piccolo, the bass drum, the triangle and cymbals bring a truly delightful touch to this legenderay Mozart composition.
Orchestrated by Leopold Stokowski for: 2 piccolos, 2 clarinets, 1 bassoon & contrabassoon, 2 french horns, 2 trumpets, 1 trombone, 1 tuba, triangle, bass drum, cymbals & strings.
http://www.sendspace.com/file/8hq0wh

Sousa/Stokowski "The Stars & Stripes Forever". The brilliance of Stokowski’s orchestration, with its use of sleigh-bells and xylophones, saxophones and harps, adds pure dazzle to this most famous of American marches!!!!!
http://www.sendspace.com/file/b1f4zj

Leopold Stokowski’s orchestral transcription for the Bach’s "Little Fugue" BWV578. Stokowski comments: "Although this fugue is short, it is one of Bach’s greatest creations. In its orchestral form it begins with the solo voice of wind instrumends. As each instrument enters, the complex weaving of the counterpoint becomes always richer, and the fugue ends with all the instruments sounding like a triumphant chorus!"
http://www.sendspace.com/file/204qin

The following mp3 contains Fugue No.2 from the "Well-tempered Clavier, Book I" scored for enormous orchestra by Leopold Stokowski. It’s short but it so representative for the infamous "Stokowski Sound".
The orchestration is gargantuan: 4 flutes, 2 piccolos, 3 oboes, 1 cor anglais (English Horn), 3 clarinets, 1 bass clarinet, 3 bassoons, 1 contrabassoon, 4 trumpets, 8 french horns, 4 trombones, 1 tuba, electric bass guitar, timpani and strings!

Arthierr, I noticed you said earlier in this thread you are a huge Grieg fan. I recently started searching for Grieg music after i listened to one album and loving it. So far I was able to find Summer Night (Piano and Saxophone), String Quartets Played by Auryn Quartett, and Six Orchestral Songs by the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic and the Peer Gynt posted in this thread.

Do you have some other Grieg besides those or any interest in any of the ones I mentioned?

(note: if you’re having trouble extracting the first movement because of its absurdly long filename, try extracting it to your root C:\)

Part 1

Part 2

Part 3

I have a small bone to pick with you sir. You see, the very first part, it has a filename so long, it is not recognized by Windows! I can’t play it in WinAmp, I can’t alter its filename – heck, I can’t even make a copy of it!

Any hopes of you releasing a version that doesn’t have a name the size of the Chinese Wall?

streichorchester

12-27-2008, 04:30 PM

Put the rar in your root C:\ then extract to C:\, it’s not that the filename is long, it’s that it’s too long for the directory which probably resembles C:\documents and settings\blah blah\blah blah\blah blah\etc.

It was a little exaggerated, but I quite appreciate his orchestral compositions. The problem is that there aren’t many of them. Other than what you mentioned, the only thing I’m used to is the Piano Concerto (can be easily found as a torrent).

Also if someone could please post his Symphony in C Minor, it would be great because I didn’t try it.

O hai! It’s me, the "pop classical" guy! :rolleyes: I’ve been busy expanding and polishing my popular classical music collection, and it turns out it became a whole lot bigger than I expected (over 450 megs 😯 ).

Found this blog: http://haloofthesun.blogspot.com/

Lots of links added what seems like daily. The top says it isn’t CD quality, but it’s pretty good, and I’ve even gotten a few FLAC, so it’s obviously a lie. There is no composer or performer information, so if you really care about that, steer clear. If you’re looking for just any recording or for new composers to get into, then this is for you.

I’m still around but haven’t had a chance to download much, or well, anything because my internet connection where I am now sucks and likes to cut out in the middle of downloading/uploading. Is there some kind of program I can use for rapidshare so if my internet cuts out I can resume downloading/uploading? Here’s hoping…

Also I got Sonar 8 and Kontakt 3 a few weeks ago so I’ve been scrambling to learn it and update as many compositions as I can. There are just not enough hours in the day.

FLAC version to come later but these high quality VBR mp3 should satisfy some.

As the review on amazon says (not a user review)
This vividly recorded new Tannh???user has much to recommend it. Daniel Barenboim’s leadership not only keeps things moving so that the somewhat stilted drama actually takes wing, he elicits some of the most beautiful playing ever from the Berlin State Opera forces: lush strings; pointed, crisp brass; reedy, articulate winds. Thomas Hampson’s Wolfram is sensitive and handsomely sung, if on a slightly small scale; Rene Pape is by far the most impressive Landgraf on disc; and the supporting cast is topnotch. Peter Seiffert sings the title role as well as anyone alive today could, but the natural youth and brightness of his voice do not particularly suit the character and his torment. Jane Eaglen’s Elisabeth is correctly pure and simple, and equally well sung. Waltraud Meier uses her unimpressive voice well as Venus, underscoring the character’s incredible sensuality with her intelligent use of the text. While this set has its excitements, better still is the one led by Sinopoli (with Domingo and Cheryl Studer) or the even older Solti recording (out of print) with Christa Ludwig as the finest Venus available and a very strong cast. –Robert Levine

There are dangers in getting to know a score through the work of a single orchestra and conductor whether on disc or in the concert-hall. The more powerful the interpretation, the more it can spoil you for subsequent readings. Not that Andre Previn’s celebrated, early-1970s recording of Rachmaninov’s Second Symphony is in any sense idiosyncratic. It is simply that, in the catalogue and out, its distinctive turns of phrase (and above all Jack Brymer’s magical way with the slow movement’s clarinet theme) have tended to monopolize mental maps of a once marginalized work. In putting over a quite different conception with similar conviction, Mikhail Pletnev’s achievement is to make us hear the music afresh. It isn’t simply a matter of timbral ‘authenticity’. His is a leaner, lither, more Tchaikovskian view which the sometimes muddling resonance of the Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatory cannot disguiseeven if one might wish for a more forward woodwind placement or a cleaner bass. Where an all-Russian recording like Valery Gergiev’s (Philipsto be reviewed next month) sounds solidly familiar in general outline (despite a first movement exposition repeat), Pletnev’s performance is characterized by relatively discreet emotionalism, stronger forward momentum and a fanatical preoccupation with clarity of articulation. When there is no Slavic wobble, it scarcely matters that his winds display an individuality which once or twice fails to transcend mere rawnessso much the better in this music! The strings, forceful and husky (with separated violin desks) are beyond reproach.

In the early stages, I did miss Previn’s dark, rhapsodic manner. Pletnev’s introduction is cooler, the line less obviously inflected. On the other hand, the extraordinary delicacy of the strings skittering into play at the start of the exposition proper is a miracle of control, and, after that comparatively unassuming opening, the development is as passionate and driven as anyone could wish. Again, the relatively backward balance of the horns in the second movement may bring some feeling of disappointment, but there are amends in the wonderfully natural, unselfconscious phrasing of the big tuneno over-indulgence there. Nor is there any risk of stagnation in the now famous Adagio. Taken controversially fast, this is perfectly effective in context without quite effacing memories of Ashkenazy’s warmer ebb and flow or Previn’s slow-building catharsis. Pletnev’s flowing tempo takes the spotlight off the non-occidentalized clarinet and is certainly in keeping with the taut ardour of his reading as a whole. The most remarkable playing comes in the finale, often bringing to mind the orchestra’s staggering display in the third movement of Tchaikovsky’s Pathtique on its dbut release (Virgin Classics, 1/92). The lyrical effusions are superbly characterized without undermining the sense of inexorability, the climaxes not just powerful but affecting too. The closing pages bring a rush of adrenalin of the kind rarely experienced live, let alone in the studio. This is great music-making, the rubato always there when required, the long phrases immaculately tailored yet always sounding spontaneous.

DG’s unexpected coupling is The Rock, an early, rather bitty piece which is however very deftly scored and intriguingly Scriabinesque in places. There are few alternative recordings in the current catalogue: Previn’s (RCA, 1/68) has recently gone though Lorin Maazel’s retains its place. In Pletnev’s hands, the central climax is surprisingly powerful, with just a hint of the buzz-saw in the brass playing. The fabulous delicacy elsewhere is alone worth the price of admission. What with Mariss Jansons’s outstanding accounts of the Third Symphony and Symphonic Dances (EMI, 12/93), Rachmaninov’s admirers have been well served of late. Don’t expect the new disc to rival EMI’s for Previn in terms of technical refinement and you won’t be disappointed: these are performances of even greater temperament and fire. Perhaps DG could now give us Pletnev’s uniquely dark and cogent readings of Prokofiev’s Sixth or Shostakovich’s Fifteenth, great Russian symphonies by no means so well represented in the lists.

That recording of Rachmaninov’s 2nd is gorgeous. My own personal favourite is Andre Previn’s 1970s (1972? 1973? I’m only 25 and my memory is failing) recording with the LSO.

Here he is conducting the symphony with the NHK Symphony Orchestra live in concert in 2007. Not quite as lovely as the London studio recording, but still well worth watching. The whole symphony doesn’t appear to be available – only twenty minutes or so, but it does include the sumptuous third movement.

This one is rare. It’s not really a request – well, Streich sort-of requested it about six months ago and I forgot about it… And it just sort-of resurfaced in my mind and I thought now was a good time to do it so, here is…

HAVERGAL BRIAN
Symphony No 9
performed by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Myer Fredman

Now, here’s the deal. This is one of those rare 1970s booties taken from radio broadcasts. A record label called Aries got hold of transcriptions of recordings made by the BBC – in most cases, of world premiere performances – and turned them into LPs. Then they promptly disappeared. The recordings have never been legitimately released.

In order to elude capture, the record company used fake orchestra and performer details on their sleeve notes so the original rights holders would hopefully not notice that their recordings were being pilfered.

This particular recording – in reality from the 1971 performance by the RPO under Fredman, was attributed to the world-renowned Wales Symphony Orchestra, conducted by highly respected musicologist Colin Wilson. They also gave us such fine fake performers as the Sao Paulo Symphony Orchestra and the Edinburgh Youth Symphony Orchestra!

So, here you go.

A note about sound quality:

This is a bootleg of a radio recording made in the 1970s. Don’t expect auditory miracles. There isn’t a great deal of high frequencies present, and there are some horrific noises caused by a mixture of poor quality vinyl, poor quality source tapes, and broadcast noise. The occasional buzzing/scraping noise on the right channel is regrettable but you soon get used to it. All the above notwithstanding, it’s extremely listenable if only for the curiosity value – this is a fine performance of one of Brian’s greatest symphonies and it’s a miracle the recording survived at all.

I had the incredible good fortune to come across about a dozen of these Aries bootlegs – all sealed and untouched – a couple of years ago and I snapped them up quickly. I am slowly getting around to transferring them all and doing audio cleanup work. Though it has to be said, very little was required given that these records – whilst nearly fourty years old – are in mint condition and haven’t even been exposed to air any time since their manufacture.

So – enjoy! And I’d love to hear comments as well; any other Brian fanatics here?

Symphony No 9
performed by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Myer Fredman

Danny, Brian is totally new to me! I’m enjoying it so far. Will have to give it a more concentrated listen soon. In a similar area, I’ve only ventured as far as Robert Simpson (who impresses me a lot). I’ll definately dip into the Marco Polo series. Classicstoday recommend 11&15 very strongly.. what would you say?

Glad you’re enjoying the Brian!

I have less Simpson than I should; only one disc on my shelf at the moment – the ninth symphony, which I love. As a matter of fact, I think I’ll fish it out and give it a spin now.

I discovered Brian when I was 13 – whilst browsing in HMV; there was a dusty cracked CD case mixed in with Mahler and it was something like ???3. I’d heard the name and I was feeling adventurous so I spent my lunch money and picked it up; it was the third symphony which is still my favourite Brian work.

Since then I’ve developed something of an obsession; obviously the Gothic symphony (posted earlier in this thread) is essential listening but it’s all worth attention. Symphonies 3, 4, 10, the Violin Concerto… All stunning.

I don’t have 10 any more as far as I can remember; I used to have the old Leicestershire Schools Symphony Orchestra recording by Lyrita on vinyl but it completely vanished a few years ago. Great pity. I still keep on the prowl around eBay…

Sorry for the double post, but…

HAVERGAL BRIAN
Symphony No 12
performed by the BBC Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Norman Del Mar
(attributed to Colin Wilson and the Wales Symphony Orchestra again!)

The recording…

So, here’s another one of those wonderful bootlegs – again from a live radio transcription from 1966. There is a commercial recording of this piece (coupled with the 4th Symphony – I think it’s already in this thread) but I prefer this performance despite the less-than-stellar sound quality – there’s a certain excitement about it as you would expect from a live world premiere performance. The sound on this recording – though made some five years before the 9th Symphony – fares considerably better; as before, eminently listenable and surprisingly clear. Once again this is my own transfer from a mint condition LP; I have performed the barest minimal remastering – slight crackle removal and slight surface noise removal; both carefully applied so as to not compromise the original signal.

The symphony…

You never know what you’re going to get with a Brian symphony; this is about as far away from the Gothic as you can get; very short (only eleven minutes for the entire work) and very concise. Reviewers have described these works like this as being written in a very specific Brianic shorthand; almost like when you listen to them your mind is supposed to expand them out fully inside your head. The sheer number of ideas he pours into such a short symphony is absolutely staggering; you certainly feel like a great deal is being left unsaid – and there’s an unshakeable feeling that the composer is thinking of things too quickly to write them down.

Many passages have a certain feeling of going somewhere and then suddenly Brian says, "Ok, I’ve had enough of that now!" and then suddenly – in the space of one bar or even less, you’re in a completely different world entirely. Based on those descriptions, the piece should be fragmented and incoherent; but strangely enough it isn’t once you listen to the whole symphony – Brian never dwells longer than necessary and makes every single note count: As I say, very concise, and in its own way, incredibly eloquent.

Interesting article on the symphony by Paul Serotsky at MusicWeb:

Studies under Stanford gave Bliss a solid grounding in the English tradition, setting him fair to follow in Elgar’s footsteps. However, the Great War changed the things to come: home he came from France brandishing a bright trophy – a consuming passion for the brittle rhythms and iridescent textures of the likes of Stravinsky, Poulenc and Auric. This garnish of “French mustard” would spice up Bliss’s “roast beef” to a degree that would be unchallenged, even by the emergent enfant terrible, William Walton.

The first real fruit of this union, which paved the way for the brilliant film and ballet scores that were to follow, was A Colour Symphony. Our immediate reaction to the movement titles – Purple, Red, Blue, and Green – is to suppose that Bliss was trying to actually portray these colours in sound. Is such a thing even possible? That argument rages on. We can all distinguish music that is “colourful” from, well, music that isn’t! However, that’s not the same as telling what actual “colours” the sounds make. Some people claim they can – Messiaen was pretty hot on this – and there’s even a drug, peyotl, the effect of which is to bend your brain into translating sounds heard into apparent colours.

However, before I start getting myself “high” on this, I should say that Bliss was moved not by “colours” as in “of the rainbow”, but by “Colour” as in “Trooping the”! He had been invited by Elgar to write a new work for the 1922 Gloucester Festival. Completely stuck for an opener, one day in a friend’s library he stumbled across a book about heraldry. The heraldic connotations of colours, and especially the emotionally-loaded symbolism that makes much the easiest meat for music’s mincing-machine, instantly uncorked his creative juices. In next to no time, he’d served up four juicy courses of “spicy beef”. Sadly, at the premi???re most of the audience – including Elgar – found the dish too hard to swallow. Happily, tastes have changed since then!

Bliss turned a very neat trick, because composers usually express their own emotions. However,in selecting these heraldic colours, he effectively pulled clusters of predetermined “emotions” out of a hat, setting himself the challenge not only of expressing things that are at best only loosely related, but also of combining them into coherent musical statements. When you think about it, that’s a pretty tough test – and moreover one he passes with (dare I say?) flying colours!

1. Purple (andante maestoso) = Amethysts, representing Royalty, Pageantry and Death. It’s hard to imagine Elgar gagging on this! Taking two coiling melodies – a funereal processional and an ornate lament – Bliss forges a union of those three aspects. Over a consistent thread of nobility, Pageantry surges briefly in fanfares and Death surfaces in dark spasms.

2. Red (allegro vivace) = Rubies, representing Wine, Revelry, Courage, Furnaces and Magic. Can you see Wine and Revelry in the electrifying, spiky “scherzo” subject, and Courage in the emergent flowing “trio”? If so, you’ll appreciate the use of the jagged, vaulting music, that intrudes half-way through and then more pungently at the end, for the signature tune of the televised “Royal Institution Christmas Lectures”!

3. Blue (gently flowing) = Sapphires, representing Deep Water, Skies, Loyalty and Melancholy. I’d associate Skies and Loyalty with “light”, and Deep Water and Melancholy with “dark”. Bliss’s burbling arabesques of liquid flute (Skies) are spliced to long-breathed descending phrases on oboe then horn (Loyalty, which later borders on exultant). A third theme on cor anglais twists and turns on itself (what else for Melancholy?!). The recurrent jagged, rhythmic string accompaniment Bliss felt to be “like water lapping”. Near the movement’s end, this acquires a “big band” inflection – deep brass for Deep Water?

4. Green (moderato) = Emeralds, representing Hope, Youth, Spring, Joy and Victory. The two pairs of related elements – Hope and Youth, and Joy and Victory – are linked by Spring with its implications of both rebirth and optimism. Curiously these, the brightest, simplest sentiments of all, emerge through the most complex musical mechanism: double fugue. Then again, maybe it’s not so curious: didn’t Mozart do something similar to end his Jupiter Symphony? Hope springs eternal on strings, initially subdued but steadily blossoming. Midway, woodwind double the tempo of the materials, and the buttons of stiff collars are joyously loosened. Victory? Well, that’s assured!

05-14-2009, 12:01 AM

My God, what an… over-exhuberant, banal piece of writing that is! In addition to his "trophy" the most important things Bliss brought back from France were undoubtedly terrifying, first-hand experience of bloody war, coupled with the kind of psychological baggage that’s something of an inevitability. Bliss’s failure to musically embrace the Elgarian ideal is hardly surprising considering his experiences – I believe he himself admitted that he suffered night terrors for years after and the composition of his symphony "Morning Heroes" (a tribute to his fellow servicemen) helped him accept the horrors he had witnessed. And besides, Bliss was never going to be another Elgar, or another Stanford for that matter; his career was beginning just as Stanford’s and Elgar’s were drawing to an end and surely nobody expected a carbon copy…

There’s more to the man than "Roast beef with French spice" – how charming that the author choses to reduce the life experience of a venerable artist to a trite, poor quality attempt at humour courtesy of an old stereotype about British-French culinary rivalry; and then compromise the integrity of his essay still further with constant attempts at food-related puns – "spicy beef", "mincing machine", "creative juices", "four juicy courses" and "the dish too hard to swallow" – and he can’t resist another joke at the expense of the work’s title.

What a great pity as if you look beyond the childish, ridiculously shallow style, there’s a very interesting analysis of the piece going on there – it’s such a shame it’s couched in bull**** and obviously written by a frustrated wannabe-comedian-cum-musicologist who probably got booed off the stage at his local pub’s open mic night!

BBC Philharmonic
Rumon Gamba

From Gramophone:

Chandos continues its most enjoyable film music series with a disc devoted to Sir Arthur Bliss, whose score for Things To Come (1934-5) was the first important contribution to cinema by an established composer. It remains one of the medium’s finest scores. Bliss’s screen work also embraced both more functional cinematic fare such as the weekly Pathe Pictorial newsreel (featured here a Welcome March marking the return of the Queen from a Commonwealth tour in 1954) and television documentary – represented on this disc by War in the Air and 1966’s The Royal Palaces Suite. In all this music, played with fervour and flair by the well-proven Rumon Gamba- BBC Philharmonic partnership, the vigour and vitality of the composer’s musical invention shines through.

Listen out for the unbuttoned start to Welcome the Queen and, at the other end of the scale, the piquantly scored wind interlude in the brief War in the Air. The picturesque tuneful waltz, ‘The Ballroom in Buckingham Palace’ from The Royal Palaces Suite, reminds us of the composer’s earlier credits for the ballet and Bliss, the conjurer of magical orchestral effects, runs through the spooky dark alleyways of Holyrood House, where Rizzio the confidante of Mary Queen of Scots was murdered, to evocative effect.

Things to Come, with its compelling warning for mankind’s future, has lost none of its power to enthrall. In an opening maestoso modal theme interrupted by call signs indicating an outside presence, Bliss powerfully captures the potent compound of HG Wells’s hopes and fears. ‘The Ballet for Children’, a gem of fleet-footed scoring and counterpoint with a trumpet tune foreshadowing to uncanny effect the one in Copland’s Billy The Kid, is followed by a series of bleak landscapes rent asunder by war-like noises. The optimistic note sounded in ‘Building of the New World’ is affirmed by the surging tune in the ‘Epilogue’. Congratulations are due to Philip Lane who arranged and reconstructed this concert music from the film, a story told in detail by Giles Easterbrook in his booklet-notes.

Given its first recording here, Caesar and Cleopatra was an unhappy experience for Bliss. He walked out on the project after meeting the Hungarian producer Gabriel Pascal, who by most accounts was as mad as a hatter, a fact recorded by Alan Jay Lerner during his acquisition of the musical rights to Pygmalion. At the time Bliss had completed over 80 pages of fully scored music including some enchanting, luminously conceived dance episodes. Studio 7 in New Broadcasting House, Manchester makes an ideal recording venue for this kind of music with a dry acoustic that is able to absorb the large battery of percussion evident in Things to Come, as well as offering an appropriately wide view of the sound stage.

Review of the Mackerras Janacek set from classicstoday.com:

Charles Mackerras speaks of this set as his last series of Jan???cek recordings, which is understandable–but let’s fervently hope that he hangs around to make many more discs for Supraphon (and other labels). Some of this material has appeared previously in the opera sets: the overtures and interludes to K???t’a Kabanov??? and S???rka. The rest of the items are new and wonderful. Most interesting for Jan???cek collectors may be this superb Suite from The Cunning Little Vixen that follows the outline of Talich’s arrangement (that is, Act 1 minus the voices) but restores the composer’s original orchestration. It’s wonderful. Equally wonderful is the performance of Schluck und Jau, certainly its finest on disc, and the same holds true of the Jealousy Overture (a bit messy in the earlier Decca recording).

This performance of the Sinfonietta is thrilling: swifter than the somewhat staid Decca recordings and even more exciting than Mackerras’ famous first effort with the Pro Arte Orchestra (now on Testament). He whips up the excitement at such points as the third movement’s central climax with uninhibited abandon, and the Czech Philharmonic responds with explosive enthusiasm. The same qualities characterize the second two movements of Taras Bulba; the first is a touch relaxed, not as violent in the battle scene as some others I could name (Ancerl, for example), but it’s never slack or self-consciously smooth. The recordings–both live and studio efforts from a variety of venues–sound consistently excellent. Mackerras did more for Jan???cek than any other conductor living or dead, and it’s fitting that he should leave his final thoughts on this music with the Czech Philharmonic and Supraphon. A set not to be missed! 10/10

Incidentally, this is a pretty good site for classical reviews. They’re mostly reliable and they cover a lot of stuff from the smaller labels that gramophone etc tend to ignore.

Oh yes that is indeed a great read, despite its length. I will of course update with the rest of the cds as I get them uploaded. Interestingly enough I got into the beauty of Chopin through the video game Eternal Sonata because it has portions about the life of Chopin and the circumstances surrounding various pieces he wrote. Each of those scenes, while boring because they were presented with really slowly appearing text of the stories, were accentuated by the beautiful music of Chopin and so I instantly found the best version of his music I could. I highly recommend that everyone at least download one of the cds and give it a listen because Chopin music is wonderful.

TRISTAN AND ISOLDE
Prelude and Transfiguration

FLAC / 70MB / 18:20
http://rapidshare.com/files/241992611/Tristan_and_Isolde.rar
MP3-320 / 40MB / 18:20

This is the first and last music heard Wagner’s Tristan and Isolde. Somehow by themselves these pieces imply almost the entire emotional and formal compass of this great opera. The last section – usually referred to as the ‘Liebestod’ (‘love-death’) – is performed here in its concert version, without the soprano vocal of the expiring heroine. Also the Prelude has a special ending to link the two together. It’s one of the most inspiring moving pieces I know, and in a way all the more powerful for being presented as gloriously abstract and transcendent, divorced from explicit theatrical context (though I also adore the whole opera).

Wagner described his conception of Tristan and Isolde as "a tale of endless yearning, longing, the bliss and wretchedness of love; world, power, fame, honour, chivalry, loyalty, and friendship all blown away like an insubstantial dream". The music generates this sense of longing through a linkage of swelling suspensions that appear to constantly turn back upon themselves, withholding traditional harmonic resolution until the very end. Bernard Herrmann must have been profoundly affected by this music. Of course Herrmann transforms this influence into something else entirely and its a testament to his genius that he can reference Wagner so directly in Vertigo and yet create something totally original, and equally moving.

This really isn’t the type of thing for a casual listen on the ipod. It’s music to close your eyes and be absorbed in. I hope you like it as much as I do.

..And apologies to all classical cognoscenti, who probably find this post insufferably obvious. I just felt in the mood to share 🙂

I haven’t played Eternal Sonata, as I don’t have a 360, but the concept sounds very odd for a japanese rpg! I can’t really imagine it working as a story premise. It’s obviously doing a good job though if it encourages people to seek out more Chopin!!
Oh yes I didn’t mention the actual story premise. Interestingly enough the company who developed the game is made up of musicians (thus the name Tri Crescendo). The game revolves around a story where Chopin is in a coma in the "real world" and is dreaming about his adventures through the "fantasy world" of the game. Occasionally the game switches from fantasy to show the people around Chopin in the real world as they sit by his bedside. Right around these times we get to see the short snippets of the beautiful music and information about his life. The game often questions whether the reality he experiences in his dream can be considered reality because he is living and interacting with people in the dream world as if they were their own alternate reality. Of course the wonderful Motoi Sakuraba weaves in beautiful piano melodies in his own music and, I believe, based on the game evolved musically to include more piano in his work and thus later release his piano album Forrest of Glass.

Apologies for the inherent cheesiness of such a compliation – some obvious choices here, and a few that, for various reasons, have romantic associations for me 🙂

:love: :swoon: :love:

This compilation is amazing! Even though I was looking for music more passionate, more furiously romantic, your selections are sometimes truly exceptional. Here are some of my favorites:

"Piano Concerto No.5 ‘Emperor’ – Adagio un poco mosso" is one of my favorite "tender" classical pieces since years. It has a special emotional value to me because I consider it as incredibly inspired. It’s a wonderful choice indeed.

"A Midsummer Night’s Dream – Nocturne" features a truly gorgeous melody, very relaxing and noble at the same time. Superb.

A very special mention for "Nocturnes pour l’orchestre – III. Sirenes", it’s just one of the most beautiful classical piece I’ve heard, thanks to you! Haunting, mysterious, otherworldly, and spellbinding, it fascinates you at very high level. Sometimes it reminds me of Horner (ethereal choirs) and sometimes of Alien and Poltergeist for some reason (maybe the revolving horns motif in the BG, among other aspects). I’d appreciate A LOT the posting of the full Nocturnes, if you could, thanks.

"Un sospiro (Trois ???tudes de concert)": as often with Liszt, we reach a rare level of sublimity. I usually don’t listen much to piano solos (sounds too "hollow" to me – I need the rich and full sound of an orchestra), but this piece, due to the incredible richness of the waving layers of notes, is extremely enjoyable.

I’d appreciate A LOT the posting of the full Nocturnes, if you could, thanks.

Sure! They are among my favourite pieces (only three sadly). You’ve got a good point about Horner/Goldsmith – Horner’s earlier scores and Goldsmith’s in the 80s very often bear the influence of composers like Debussy and Ravel. Secret of Nimh has some gorgeous ethereal moments with the choir too, as does Legend (this is one score where I just wish Jerry had ditched the synths). You’re very astute in pointing to Alien and Poltergeist – both of these, particularly the former, have a lot of ‘whole tone’ stuff going on, as does Debussy. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whole_tone_scale

I usually don’t listen much to piano solos (sounds too "hollow" to me – I need the rich and full sound of an orchestra), but this piece, due to the incredible richness of the waving layers of notes, is extremely enjoyable.

:puppydog: I’m shocked! To my mind the piano is one of the richest and most expressive instruments of all. [though of course, it can’t, on its own, compare to the meta-instrument of the orchestra in power and range, but what can?] Its essentially percussive nature (wires hit with hammers) means it can be as violent and abrasive as you like, but also it can be incredibly lyrical and flowing – I guess this is why, for me, its such an ideal instrument for Beethoven, who moves from masculine bravura and tumult to the most fragile kind of pathos. I know what you mean about hollowness sometimes being a problem – particularly perhaps in fairly simple use anime/game scores? But if you like Un Sospiro there are many others that you’d love. Perhaps at some point I’ll post a compilation.

arthierr

06-01-2009, 05:00 PM

Yes, I mostly listened to piano solos in anime / movies, and they can be quite simple in that context. But I agree on the fact that the piano is one of the richest sounding instruments (with which intrument a player can make dozens of notes playing at the same time? – including dying notes). But what I meant is that I need the multi-textural quality of an orchestra: many different timbres mixed together.

I was looking for music more passionate, more furiously romantic…

Have you tried Mahler? The last movement of his 3rd Symphony is incredible, but almost beyond passion, a force of nature. Or indeed, the Wagner I posted above. The only word for the Liebestod is ‘orgasmic’!!

I’m thinking of putting up Berlioz ‘Symphonie Fantastique’ soon. It’s basically about passionate love – but also disillusionment, humiliation and death – like so much great art 😉 It has some astoundingly imaginative orchestrations.

Hey, it’s not aversion! Just something I like less than other forms of music. But I’ll certainly try one of your CDs. Any suggestion about which one? Clue: I prefer upbeat and lively pieces, I tend to avoid slow / sad music.
Well considering they aren’t tagged properly and I can’t find the right tags I hardly pay attention to which CD I am listening to at any given moment. Although the pieces tend to be a little on the slow side I wouldn’t consider it sad, only relaxing.

ARVO PART – FRATRES
MP3-320 / 174MB
http://rapidshare.com/files/240490509/Arvo_Part_Fratres.rar

1. Fratres for violin and piano
2. Cantus in memorium Benjamin Britten
3. Summa for choir
4. Summa for string orchestra
5. The Beatitudes
6. Spiegel im Spiegel
7. Festina lente
8. Tabula rasa – Ludus (with movement)
9. Tabula Rasa – Silentium (without movement)

Gramophone:

Fratres comes bounding in on a breathless, arpeggiated violin crescendo that stops suddenly in mid-air, revealing—in its immediate aftermath, and beyond a masterful piano chord—music that is both harmonically powerful and profoundly peaceful. Tasmin Little is as adept at realizing the score’s ecstatic sense of ritual as either Gidon Kremer (on ECM) or Maria Bachmann (Catalyst), although Kremer’s febrile, attenuated tone particularly suits the music’s rarefied atmosphere. Yet Little’s zealous projection of the more passionate aspects of Fratres is no less convincing, while her skill in sustaining Spiegel im Spiegel (where the solo line seems more prayer than song) underlines Part’s telling use of the ‘home’ note, A. It is here especially that Part expresses the idea of ‘return’, with the violin line constantly oscillating either side of a soothing tonal mean, set to a simple piano accompaniment.

The Cantus in memory of Benjamin Britten and Festina lente are two sublime inhabitants of the one world, both of which operate at three simultaneous speeds: the one, a weeping veil of cascading A minor scales, the other a simple shared melody where individual strands entwine around each other. The Cantus is prompted by a distantly chiming bell, then falls across the ear like a tonal shroud, gradually gaining in intensity before settling, at length, on a single chord. Summa, on the other hand, is a sonorous and largely effective transcription of Part’s Creed for four voices, although I still retain a preference for the more cleanly delineated original. Lastly, there is Tabula Rasa, ”the most extended of the composer’s purely instrumental works to date”, to quote annotator Philip Borg-Wheeler, and certainly one of Part’s most striking creations—especially the second movement ”Silentium”, where the presiding chimes of a prepared piano set the atmosphere, and the whole gradually descends to a static duet for cello and bass. It’s the perfect ”Stressbuster” (to quote the title of a recent compilation album), although the first movement (”Ludus”) is one of Part’s most consistently motoric creations.

EMI Eminence’s admirable programme was taped in Abbey Church, Milton Abbey School, at Blandford Forum in Dorset, and Part’s bell-like creations are allowed to resonate freely within the church’s generous acoustic. The sum effect is one of immediate spirituality, and although Gidon Kremer’s ECM recordings have a moving (and appropriate) sense of the ethereal, Studt and Little convey a feeling of presence, of excited discovery that will surely win this fine composer many new friends.

classicstoday:

Anyone who has followed choral music during the past 30 years–and especially the last couple of decades–knows at least some of the works of Estonian composer Arvo P???rt. This compilation features a fair selection of his more recent (primarily a cappella) pieces from the 1990s–but if you already own the earlier recordings from which these are drawn, you’ll find a nice bonus here: the newly recorded Dopo la vittoria (Following the victory). This substantial (11-minute) "picola cantata", premiered in 1997, tells of St. Ambrose and his famous hymn Te Deum. No doubt this lively (some parts sound like folk-dance) and dramatically varied work–another masterpiece of text-explication and expressive use of vocal color and texture–will gain many performances and enthusiastic audiences, joining P???rt favorites such as Bogoroditse Djevo, Magnificat, and the Berliner Messe.

Although it’s these latter two works that perhaps are most closely identified with P???rt’s unique "tintinnabuli" style–the endlessly resonating triads and undulating, register-shifting consonances and dissonances–The woman with the alabaster box and I am the true vine may be his most purely, fundamentally beautiful compositions, melodically, harmonically, and from the standpoint of choral sound and texture. Whatever your preference, this is important and profoundly moving music in which almost anyone can find meaning, even spiritual resonance. The performances are uniformly excellent, even essential, and the recordings couldn’t be better. This tribute to P???rt on his 70th birthday is an absolute joy.

classicstoday:

Ren??? Jacobs turned in a sensational recording of Haydn’s The Seasons for Harmonia Mundi last year, and now he’s back with what I hope will mark the beginning of many forays into this composer’s inexhaustibly entertaining output. I loved this disc. Symphony No. 91 never gets played, but it’s a wonderful piece nonetheless, a svelte and sophisticated romp with a particularly wonderful variation second movement that becomes steadily more eccentric as it progresses, particularly in this performance. Jacobs and his crew then go absolutely crazy in the "Oxford" Symphony, particularly its finale, taken faster than even the excellent Freiburgers can comfortably play it, and if some of the rhythmic definition and textural clarity fall by the wayside, well, who cares? Haydn’s wig would have hit the floor if he could have heard it, that’s for sure.

In between the two symphonies, Jacobs and the superb Bernarda Fink give us the fabulous and far too little known (especially in its version for full orchestra) Scena di Berenice, a concert aria worthy to rank with Mozart’s best, and the piece on which Beethoven modeled his own far less interesting Ah, perfido! Containing two dramatic recitatives followed by two moving arias, it runs the gamut of primarily sorrowful emotions and Fink simply nails it (the ending will make your hair stand on end), enhanced immeasurably by Jacobs’ incisive leadership. All of these pieces were either written for or played at Haydn’s London concerts, and this stunningly recorded disc is probably the closest you’ll ever get to a front-row balcony seat in the Hanover Square Rooms more than two centuries ago. There’s just got to be more where this came from. Please? 10/10

Do give the "Oxford" a listen. It’s a stunning symphony. The slow introduction begins like a misty morning among the dreaming spires, and then the allegro kicks in with all the bustle and bluster you’d expect on High St – stressed academics and overeager tourists elbowing each other out of the way perhaps… [hehe – in actual fact the piece isn’t related to the city more than incidentally – performed at the ceremony when Haydn received his honorary doctorate from the uni, but was premiered in Paris] This is a *very* spirited period instrument performance but one of my favourite little details is the pianoforte ‘continuo’ that you hear giving cheeky little reflections every so often. The Finale is one of those infectious campy tunes that Haydn loves so much, and it gets whipped up into a storm here. Listen to the strings at 4:19 and 6:40 in the rapid approach to the coda – they sound like they are catching their breath from all the excitement!! 🙂

This is the genius behind the music

Isaac Shepard enjoys composing music across diverse genres, including classical, jazz, pop, rock, techno, electronica, and trance. He is probably best known for “Before Dawn”, a soothing track on his 2005 solo piano album, “Swept Away”. In 2008, Isaac released “Deep Joy”, his second solo piano album. Isaac’s music and orchestrations can also be found in several casual games, including “Airport Mania: First Flight” and “Build in Time.”

Here’s both solo piano albums, best quality i could find ><

I second this recommendation – a really lush account of the opera! You can’t go wrong with Barenboim in Wagner.

Also did you see I posted some music from Tristan and Isolde on the prevous page? One of his most inspired creations.

Sanico, I look forward to giving that selection a listen. The Ring has a special resonance for me. I first heard the Prelude to Das Rheingold at the age of 8, in awe that a human being could’ve composed something so sublime. The music felt completely beyond me and still does. It’s hard to say what so special about Wagner (particularly in his late operas – Lohengrin, Tristan, The Ring, Parsifal), to put it into words, or even to directly understand its effect.. he creates a feeling of another world, a magical feeling, that’s so complete unto itself, so comforting and terrifying.. not many ‘dramatic’ composers come close for me. I have the complete Ring cycle conducted by Solti (superb) and a cd of highlights from Bohm’s set (good for the singers, terrible for the orchestra).

I’m so glad to see the contributions here! Belioz and more Haydn coming soon 🙂

I have that Solti recording too, in digital format, but i have never listened to it entirely.
The orchestral parts are fantastic, but when those tenors start chanting i need to move on for to the next orchestra part, because i don’t undertand a single word in German. I suppose to fully understand an Opera you must watch and listen to it live within the context of the story, and that’s not what you can get in front of your computer or hifi stereo equipment.
That’s a reason i don’t have a complete Ring Cycle on CD, and this Georg Solti set is way to expensive for me to buy.

Wasn’t the Solti considered by the classical music scholars "the pinnacle of all the 20th century music recordings" and the definitive perfomance of the Ring cycle on CD, or something like that?

Lens of Truth

06-06-2009, 06:44 AM

Yes, you have to hear Wagner in the theatre really, to get to grips with it fully. When I first saw Tristan and Isolde performed we’d been allocated less-than-ideal (necessarily cheap) seats and we couldn’t read the surtitles – I don’t have a word of German either, so this meant concentrating on it purely as music (the stage action and sets were pretty minimal too). In Tristan, for the first time, Wagner composed the whole orchestral score first, as a kind of metaphysical ‘working-out’, and added the vocal parts after – strange as that might seem – so it absolutely rewards this kind of listening.

Solti’s Ring cycle is generally considered the best all-rounder: the orchestra, singers, and recorded sound are all good; there is even the odd stage effect to add a sense of theatre (though it was recorded in the studio, hence the clearer sound). But it doesn’t have everything perfect. No one recording can do justice to such a mammoth work of art.

In truth, I’ve only listened to the whole thing once, and I rarely go through the rest of my Wagner recordings. In the theatre though they transport you to another place, and are more moving than words can describe – Parsifal (his last) in particular knocked me out on just about every level possible!! 🙂

Before John Williams there was…

…one of the last great symphonists. Though not as long as Mahler’s or Shostakovich’s, Hanson’s seven symphonies are each spectacularly thematic, powerful, beautiful, and an orchestrator’s dream. If you love film music, especially the film music of John Williams, you will most certainly like this guy’s work. Start off with Symphonies 1 and 2, you won’t regret it. Look for the awesome parts for timpani and piccolo, as well as the stunning brass fanfares and chorales. For those familiar with Hanson’s work, it is no secret that this guy was one of Williams’s biggest inspirations.

Disc 1 – http://rapidshare.com/files/244271872/hanson1.rar
Symphony No. 1 "Nordic"
Elegy in Memory of Serge Koussevitsky
Symphony No. 2 "Romantic" (final movement remind you of anything?)

Disc 2 – http://rapidshare.com/files/244314962/hanson2.rar
Symphony No. 3
Fantasy Variations on a Theme of Youth
Symphony No. 6 (the final movement of this one is to be played at max volume)

Disc 3 – http://rapidshare.com/files/244362261/hanson3.rar
Symphony No. 4 "Requiem"
Serenade for Flute, Harp and Strings
Lament for Beowulf
Pastorale for Oboe, Harp and Strings
Suite from Merry Mount (Hanson’s opera)

Disc 4 – http://rapidshare.com/files/244341687/hanson4.rar
Mosaics
Piano Concerto in G major
Symphony No. 5
Symphony No. 7 "Sea Symphony" (for orchestra and chorus)

I ripped and compressed these mp3s myself on my girlfriend’s mac so let me know if there are any sound artifacts or other errors and I’ll redo them.

UNSUK CHIN – VIOLIN CONCERTO
BBC Philharmonic conducted by James MacMillan
Hae-Sun Kung, Violin
MP3-V0 / 40MB / 24:40
http://rapidshare.com/files/246348864/Unsuk_Chin_-_Violin_Concerto.mp3

"My music is a reflection of my dreams. I try to render into music the visions of immense light and of an incredible magnificence of colours that I see in all my dreams, a play of light and colours floating through the room and at the same time forming a fluid sound sculpture. Its beauty is very abstract and remote, but it is for these very qualities that it addresses the emotions and can communicate joy and warmth."

This is a stunning, imaginaive piece by contemporary Korean composer Usuk Chin. See what you think 🙂

From the Boosey & Hawkes website:

The Violin Concerto is cast in four movements, resembling the classical sequence of extended first movement, slow movement, scherzo and finale, but also weaves in cyclical material, recast and reinterpreted to bind the concerto into an impressive 27-minute span. If the structure is readily familiar, there is nothing conventional about the music itself, which revels in Chin’s fantasy-filled orchestral soundworld with its percussion-rich colourings and chamber-like clarity. The ear is constantly beguiled, then surprised by Chin’s keen aural imagination, while the concerto also employs a greater degree of drama and conflict than in many of her other works.

Chin’s music possesses something very rare: an attractive sound that proves accessible to a large audience without fawning. The gentle, seemingly directionless suspension of time that marks much of Chin’s music also leads to fractures and abruptness; however detailed and preciously polished in appearance, the sounds are not of unvarying smoothness. Moments of hard, elemental emotion flare up from this malleable medium and constitute the propulsive source of this music.

"Chin’s Violin Concerto lets the solo instrument sing by playfully employing open strings and their overtones in all conceivable combinations of harmonics in a way that is as harmonically simple as it is rhythmically complex. The orchestration is large-scale… however one of the piece’s strengths is that Chin does not aspire to constant orchestral occupation but consistently pursues the idea of fanning out and of transformation of the very basic sound whose essence is derived from the solo instrument… The violin part presents the soloist with an adventurous challenge with its frequent and speedily alternating harmonics as well as with the incredibly fast pizzicatos of the third movement."

OK, here we go, folks: The most WONDERFUL THING OF ALL TIME. This recording is the one thing I would retrieve from my burning house. It is a recording of a concert that took place nine years ago at the BBC Proms, on July 14th 2000 – one which I had the honour of attending in person. It lliterally changed my life. I have spent three weeks rescuing it from VHS tape, and present it proudly to you all today:

Glagolitic Mass

The BBC Symphony Orchestra and Chorus
The BBC Singers
Christine Brewer, soprano
Louise Winter, mezzo soprano

The reason it took so long is this: I spent a considerable time transferring and restoring the (EXCELLENT) quality sound from my VHS tape – and was all set to upload that some weeks back. Then I realised that the performance was visually electrifying as well as aurally – and so I set about restoring the video as well. The end result speaks for itself.

It’s on Youtube – but don’t panic. The sound and picture are both excellent. I have spent quite some time on making it so.

I have more comments coming up later, but for now – enjoy.

Ha, no probs, I was thrilled with your post! Glad you like the Chin. Once you get past the harmonics obsessing of the first movemnt there’s some really beautiful stuff.

Can I ask what contemporary stuff you’re into? What do you think of George Benjamin? I find the ultra virtuosity of a lot of modern music can lead to a sort of chaos of great technique and devolve into purposeless ‘soundscapes’. But when its done well it can be thrilling (.. this is obviously highly subjective anyway). Would be interested to know your thoughts and if you have any recommendations.

Here’s the reupload and repost of streichorchester’s HARDCORE BALLET, as requested.

HARDCORE BALLET

Thanks to streichorchester

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=G00UA1SB

streichorchester’s notes:

Bartok – The Miraculous Mandarin: It’s not an easy listen – no standout themes or tonal center. It kind of bridges the gap between Bartok’s colourful folk-like compositions and his forays into the avant-garde.

Bartok – The Wooden Prince: Ah yes, much more thematically connected and down to earth. It’s very reminiscent of Prokofievian ballet music or symphonies, which is why Horner used a bit of it in The Land Before Time.

Borodin – Prince Igor: Folk dances and choirs and beautiful chomaticism in the themes. It’s full of popular tunes, but lots of people don’t actually realize they came from an opera written by a chemist in his spare time. The Polovetsian Dances make up the most spectacular segment of this opera, and can easily be considered ballet music.

Copland – Rodeo: Speaking of popular tunes, everyone knows this one. Since Copland’s music is so schizophrenic it’s hard to find pieces that are through and through "action-oriented" so I went with the easy selection here you may remember from beef commercials. James Horner borrowed this sound for his score to An American Tail 2: Fievel Goes West.

Khachaturian – Gayane: pronounced "guy-nuh". The most famous part from this is the Sabre Dance, but everyone’s heard that a million times so I went with a more obscure selection. Also, you might recall Gayane’s Adagio was used in the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey, and subsequently Horner’s score to Aliens.

Khachaturian – Spartacus: Does Khachaturian’s genius know no bounds? He’s perhaps one of the most underrated composers if you look at his more unpopular works such as this two-hour ballet. While the Adagio of Spartacus and Phrygia is everyone’s favourite selection, for this I chose the Orgy at Crassus’s Villa which was used to great effect in the movie The Hudsucker Proxy along with the Adagio.

Khachaturian – The Valencian Widow: Another relatively unknown Khachaturian ballet that takes place during the Spanish Renaissance. It’s a comedy, so it carries that patented Khachaturian snare ostinato in full force.

Nielsen – Aladdin: The composer who will always be overshadowed by Sibelius was probably a better colourist than Sibelius as heard in his best work Aladdin. Yeah, he wrote six symphonies that people seem to like, but I can’t for the life of me remember how they go even though I own all six.

Prokofiev – Romeo and Juliet: Sergei Prokofiev, one of film scoring’s godfathers, was just as good at writing ballets, if not better. His Romeo and Juliet proved he was just as good as Tchaikovsky, and earned him a spot as the 20th century’s foremost ballet composer (along with Stravinsky.) James Horner steals quite a bit from this work, as heard in the selection here which can be found in the Stealing the Enterprise cue from Star Trek III: The Search for Spock.

Prokofiev – Scythian Suite: After hearing Stravinsky’s revolutionary The Rite of Spring, Prokofiev set out to do one better by writing a ballet called Ala and Lolli. He failed miserably (or so he thought) and the result is this colourful tale. James Horner used this in Battle Beyond the Stars.

Ravel – Daphnis et Chloe: When I first heard this I was in awe of its majestic grandeur and colourful orchestrations, not to mention it was a ballet accompanied by full chorus. The themes and harmonies during the openings of both acts really stuck with me, but here I present the exciting finale as per the action-oriented nature of my selections. There are also portions of this ballet ripped off by Joel McNeely for his Shadows of the Empire faux-soundtrack.

Shostakovich – The Golden Age: Here’s a Russian composer who is actually NOT known for his ballet music, though he tried. For the most part they just seemed like extensions of his symphonies and film music, and don’t carry the thematic inventiveness or pleasant listening experience of his Jazz Suites. This is only here because I’d hate to leave Shostakovich out. Go listen to his Jazz Suites and symphonies.

Stravinsky – The Firebird: Stravinsky is mostly known for his three big ballets: The Rite of Spring, Petrouchka, and The Firebird. Of the three, The Firebird is the most "listenable" in suite form since the melodies are simple, the harmonies are simple, and the result is good ol’ fashioned Tchaikovskian tradition. The more flowery sections seemed to have inspired John Williams for his score to Hook, but here I’ve selected the Infernal Dance heard in Fantasia 2000.

Stravinsky – The Rite of Spring: I couldn’t have made this collection of kick-ass ballet music and not included some selections from The Rite of Spring. Yeah, we all know the trivia: riots broke out at the premiere, John Williams borrows heavily from this, it scored the dinosaurs in Fantasia, etc. But did you know that Trevor Jones took a melody from this for his You Have the Power cue from Dark City? The more you know…

Vaughan Williams – Job: Vaughan Williams is a great composer who can write some of the most beautiful pastoral music you’ve ever heard, but he has a dark side that can be seen in his symphonies nos 4 and 6, and this ballet. His symphonic scherzos are often reminiscent of the kind his BFF Holst wrote, but this is just weird. Cool, but weird.

William Walton – The Quest: I think somewhere along the way Joel McNeely thought to himself "Gee, this ballet sounds a lot like Star Wars, so why don’t I rip it off for Shadows of the Empire? No one will notice because who’s ever heard of The Quest?" If you like Shadows of the Empire you will probably like The Quest, but if you LOVE Shadows of the Empire you’ll hate The Quest for reminding you that Shadows is just a rip off of this. The selection here actually isn’t any of the portions you hear in Shadows, but it’s still awesome.

And you can’t do without Vaughan Williams’ Job!! In fact I might post the whole thing when I get the chance.

I was lucky enough to attend an INCREDIBLE performance of this conducted by that great exponent of English music, Vernon Handley, shortly before his death. I know it doesn’t get much attention but it’s really an amazing piece.

Before John Williams there was…

Disc 1 – http://rapidshare.com/files/244271872/hanson1.rar
Symphony No. 1 "Nordic"
Elegy in Memory of Serge Koussevitsky
Symphony No. 2 "Romantic" (final movement remind you of anything?)

Disc 2 – http://rapidshare.com/files/244314962/hanson2.rar
Symphony No. 3
Fantasy Variations on a Theme of Youth
Symphony No. 6 (the final movement of this one is to be played at max volume)

Disc 4 – http://rapidshare.com/files/244341687/hanson4.rar
Mosaics
Piano Concerto in G major
Symphony No. 5
Symphony No. 7 "Sea Symphony" (for orchestra and chorus)

I ripped and compressed these mp3s myself on my girlfriend’s mac so let me know if there are any sound artifacts or other errors and I’ll redo them.

Ahem… I just started listening to these, and a) it’s gorgeous – consider me as a new Hanson fan :), b) the Williams similarities are quite obvious, no doubt about that. I thank you for posting these masterpieces.

BUT, I’m very disappointed in fact with the quality! This is music of the highest order, the compositions are remarkable and the orchestrations are masterful, so why 128 kbps??? I can actually hear the typical flaws of low quality mp3 encoding when I listen to these symphonies, and it really spoils a good part of the experience.

So, as you proposed me a favor in exchange of the reup of the HARDCORE BALLET, I’d like to request the reposting of these symphonies in HQ mp3, preferably Lame V-0 or 320k (there’s a quick guide here (http://forums.ffshrine.org/showpost.php?p=1271688&postcount=2554)).

Thanks in advance. 🙂

…Could you send me the links to the Complete Ballet of Prokofiev’s Romeo and Juliet, on megaupload.com? I have a membership there, so it is much easier. On an additional note, I’ve had trouble with rapidshare.com in the past. I would say that it’s something with my internet, but I don’t really know.

"The predominant qualities of my music are passionate expression, inner fire, rhythmic drive – and the unexpected."
Hector Berlioz

BERLIOZ – SYMPHONIE FANTASTIQUE
The Mahler Chamber Orchestra conducted by Mark Minkowski
320kbps / 5 tracks / 57:37
http://rapidshare.com/files/251997401/Berlioz_-_Symphonie_fantastique.rar

1. R???veries, passions (Largo – Allegro agitato e appassionato assai)
2. Un bal (Valse: Allegro non troppo)
3. Sc???ne aux champs (Adagio)
4. Marche au supplice (Allegretto non troppo)
5. Songe d’une nuit du Sabbat (Larghetto – Allegro)

OK, I’ve been meaning to post this for a while – a breathtakingly powerful live performance of Berlioz’s masterpiece – a symphony unlike any other. The following, in the words of the composer, is the imaginary scenario that brings the sequence of movements into being:

‘A young musician of morbid sensitivity and ardent imagination poisons himself with opium in a moment of despair caused by frustrated love. The dose of narcotic, while too weak to cause his death, plunges him into a heavy sleep accompanied by the strangest of visions, in which his experiences, feelings and memories are translated in his feverish brain into musical thoughts and images. His beloved becomes for him a melody… an id???e fixe…’

Here’s some very briefly typed notes:

‘Reveries and Passions’- theme of the beloved is alluded to in the slow introduction and stated fully at the beginning of the allegro (5:58) with an excitable, thrusting accompaniment. Contrasts of ecstatic emotion and melancholy – enthralled love, obsessive devotion. Gorgeous, peaceful coda after all that tumult (14:56).

‘A Ball’ – two harps and shivering strings introduce an elegant waltzified version of the id???e fixe. Almost out of control by the end of the movement, whiling around in delirium – god Herrmann must have loved this!

‘A Scene in the Country’ – two shepherd call to each other with their pipes. Reminiscent of Beethoven’s ‘Pastoral’ of course (even in the same key, F major) but much more of a feeling of distance and isolation. Very beautiful, slowly unfolding movement, very understated compared to the rest of the symphony, transparent orchestrations. Timpani rolls toward the end suggest the impending nightmare world of the last two movements.

‘March to the Scaffold’ – sinister and fatalistically triumphant at the same time. The composer is witnessing his own execution. Brass dominate. Almost comic grotesquery begins with scampering bassoons and flatulent tubas. Guillotine falls on the composer (and his beloved?) at around 6:00 – plucked strings like the sound of the head plopping into the basket!

‘Dream of a Night of the Sabbath’ – final grotesque deformation of the beloved’s theme, as though she has destroyed him and now mocks in a frenzied satanic gathering. Almost mocking the idea of love itself (!). Amazing that the music is both very descriptive (suggestive of vermin, insects, witches etc) yet compellingly abstract, with its own sense of motion and purpose. The Dies Irae and a fugal theme are stated and then combined. More crazy syncopations (7:18 and 7:57), finally rushes to an awesome crescendo. Total orchestral tour de force!

Enjoy! 🙂

07-05-2009, 03:16 PM

I’ve heard much about this symphony but didn’t really have the opportunity to try it (even though BERLIOZ is a national treasure in this country). Your post is the perfect occasion to get into it.

Thanks for this great post and for the nice presentation, as usual. 🙂

And now, if I may do a request, I enjoyed a lot the aria in Tytania, posted in the Orchestral Thread by Danny. So maybe, if you have time, could you post here some great arias from the classical repertoire. Arias have often something so graceful, so moving, and even frequently romantic. It’s a sort of magical moment between a singer and an orchestra, bringing a lot of emotion and beauty.

Holst wasn’t exactly prolific – and of his somewhat limited collection of works, sadly very few are remembered and performed today. He was something of a one-hit-wonder – his music wasn’t massively popular even in his time; he was a teacher first, a conductor second, and a composer third.

Which is a great shame, because the music we do have is magnificent. The Hymn Of Jesus is absolutely gorgeous. If I can remember where I put the disc, I’ll upload it later along with my Janacek post I’ve been promising for weeks…!!!

That’s the one! 🙂 You have to take the rough with the smooth with Naxos – many of their recordings were my first and have since been ‘replaced’ and upgraded. I remember their Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto 1 was particularly ropey – I could tell at the time despite this being my first exposure to the music!

Out of interest, what’s your Planets of choice? On disc I have Karajan, Vernon Handley, Charles Dutoit (and said Naxos attempt), but recently I’ve been listening most to William Steinberg’s on DG Originals. It’s said to be the closest tempi-wise to Holst’s own, and it has a superbly detailed recording:

SAINT-SAENS – ORGAN SYMPHONY, CARNIVAL OF THE ANIMALS
MP3-V0
http://rapidshare.com/files/255448447/Saint-Saens_-_Organ__Carnival.rar

Thanks a lot for your posts, mates.

Now, about this wonderful ORGAN SYMPHONY, it’s quite a masterpiece I listened a lot years ago, when I had time to "explore" the vast continent of Classical Music. So powerful, so majestic… Here’s some comments about it:

The Symphony No. 3 in C minor, Op. 78, was completed by Camille Saint-Sa???ns in 1886 at what was probably the artistic zenith of his career. It is also popularly known as the "Organ Symphony", even though it is not a true symphony for organ, but simply an orchestral symphony where two sections out of four use the pipe organ. The French title of the work is more accurate: Symphonie No. 3 "avec orgue" (with organ).

Of composing the work Saint-Sa???ns said that he had "given everything to it I was able to give." The composer seemed to know it would be his last attempt at the symphonic form, and he wrote the work almost as a type of "history" of his own career: virtuoso piano passages, brilliant orchestral writing characteristic of the Romantic period, and the sound of a cathedral-sized pipe organ. The work was dedicated to Saint-Sa???ns’s friend Franz Liszt, who died that year, on July 31, 1886.

This symphony was commissioned by the Royal Philharmonic Society in England, and the first performance was given in London on 19 May 1886, at St James’ Hall, conducted by the composer. He also conducted the French premiere in January 1887.

Don’t spose anyone has these xD

I have Yellow River and Butt3rf1y Lovers but not those particular recordings. Any good to you? 🙂

Lens: I haven’t heard Steinberg’s Planets for years – I think I used to have it on LP but it vanished years ago. I remember it being a little frenetic…

I have a certain fondness for Holst’s own recordings (with a certain preference for the 1923) but I find the tempo to be too quick – I take the assertion that "it’s what Holst wanted!" with a pinch of salt, because in the twenties it was routine practice to hit the fast-forward button in an effort to fit a given piece onto one or two sides of a 78rpm disc (3-4 minutes per side) so it’s obvious that Holst was being hurried. Oddly enough, his later 1926 recording was much faster. The 1923 acoustic performance was certainly brisk, but the 1926 just sounds hurried. The first recording – for all its flaws, inevitably poor quality sound, and vastly reduced orchestra – seems to reach me the most. That violin portamento… Those were the days… 🙂

Naxos’ second attempt with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra is pretty good.

Boult’s wartime recording (January 1945) is absolutely ravishing. If you can get past the sound quality (which is actually not bad on Pristine Audio’s remaster) I always found this to be my overall favourite. The performance is absolutely spotless and the sense of atmosphere is tangible to say the least – the thought of the orchestra, exiled to Bedford, recording the relentless war-march of Mars, and the overwhelming joy and patriotism of Jupiter – it’s truly astonishing.

Obviously you’re much more of a connoisseur of this piece than myself. I regret to say it’s one of those works I take for granted somewhat – even though I rank it as the highest of masterpieces (isn’t this always the way..). I’d love to hear any of Boult’s recordings – thanks for the tip! For me, it’s a piece best appreciated at a live concert, with all the intention and imperfection that goes along with that.

Do you know, I haven’t heard Holst’s own!!! Soon enough…

The Planets is a lot like Star Wars. Everybody knows it so well and has heard it a billion times, to the extent where it’s difficult to take a step back and realise that it’s actually a great piece. Turn off that familiarity and just listen to it for its own merits. That’s hard work. I’m trying to do it more and more lately. Yesterday I did Beethoven’s 5th – and for the first time realised that virtually every bar of the first movement is a variation on "da da da daaah"; I’m not the biggest Beethoven fan but the greatness of it really reached me for the first time. Overexposure can be a bad thing and it can spoil great things if you don’t keep it under control. I know what you mean about taking it for granted.

It’s also amazing how much The Planets has influenced film scoring and how much it continues to do so, even after 90 years. Powell’s Ice Age 3 rips off Jupiter so bad you’d think it was Yoko Kanno in disguise.

The Planets is playing at this year’s Proms, coupled with Elgar’s Cockaigne and Delius’ The Song Of The High Hills – on Saturday 25th if I remember correctly. I’ve got my tickets. It’s going to be amazing. (Also, I haven’t heard Charles Mackerras live before and I’m particularly looking forward to seeing him conduct in the flesh.)

I actually don’t have Boult’s Planets on disc – only vinyl. Shame on me!

I WILL upload some later on. Holst’s own recordings I think I’ll start with, if you can stand 85 year old sound quality. 😉

OK folks, here we go: Two *very* historical recordings of The Planets for you to compare.

The composer recorded the work twice – once acoustically in 1922/1923 with a very reduced orchestra, and again electrically in 1925/1926 with a larger orchestra.

Now, these recordings are 86 and 83 years old respectively. If you don’t like that "vintage sound" then don’t bother with these – they’re good for historical interest but not for a hi-fi listening perspective. Get them if you want to hear how Holst interpreted his own music nearly ninety years ago.

Both are performed by the LSO, under Holst’s baton.

1923: WARNING – this remastering was done in 1989 and, not beating about the bush, it sounds like SHIT – there is a better version available from Pristine Classical (http://pristineclassical.com/) but if you want that one you’ll have to go and buy it. That company does GREAT work and the proprieter, Andrew Rose, in addition to being an absolute genius, is also a VERY nice fellow.

1926: This one sounds much much better. It’s a digital restoration made by EMI in 1992. It sounds pretty good. There is another version available on Naxos Historical done a couple of years ago but I think this one is better.

Both of these are out of print.

http://www.rapidspread.com/file.jsp?id=vqlh3srucr

As a little bonus…

Here’s Jupiter from Leopold Stokowski’s vile recording with the Los Angeles Philharmonic. This is a vinyl transfer – this monstrosity is available on CD but I don’t have it and I’m not prepared to dignify it by spending cash on it.

The sleeve notes talk a great deal of bollocks:

"This unusual music… has found its supreme interpreter. Stokowski captures its subtlest nuances of tone and its full range of orchestral colour, in an album that is a High-Fidelity showpiece!"

Believe me folks, that is nothing more than marketing puff. Listen for yourself! 😉

HOLST – ORCHESTRAL WORKS

MP3-V0 / 109MB / 8 tracks / 1:09
http://rapidshare.com/files/257289829/Holst_-_Beni_Mora_etc.rar

Quotation from Thomas Hardy’s The Return of the Native written above the score of Egdon Heath:

"A place perfectly accordant with man’s nature – neither ghastly, hateful nor ugly; neither commonplace, unmeaning nor tame; but like man, slighted and enduring; and withal singularly colossal and mysterious in its swarthy monotony"

Gramophone review:

This disc, superbly recorded in the Henry Wood Hall in Glasgow, makes a most welcome addition to Naxos’s growing collection of English music. In every way it provides formidable rivalry for the two excellent full-price Holst discs which substantially overlap with this in repertory — from Richard Hickox on Chandos and from Sir Adrian Boult on Lyrita in vintage performances from around 1970.

Like Hickox, Lloyd-Jones has as his two weightiest items the Hardy-inspired Egdon Heath, arguably Holst’s finest work, as well as the prelude and fugue. Hammersmith, comparably dark and intense. But where Hickox has the latter in its usual orchestral form, Lloyd-Jones chooses the wind-band version, achieving a subtlety of shading in phrasing and dynamic amply to justify that striking choice. The Chandos recording is sumptious, but the Naxos sound is at least as vividly atmospheric, while letting one hear more inner detail, particularly important in the fugue.
As to interpretation. Hickox is a degree warmer in phrasing and more passionate in his build-up of climaxes, where Lloyd-Jones, generally adopting more flowing speeds closer to those of Boult, is more objective, while bringing out to the full the tenderness and refinement of the writing. Particularly beautiful is the performance of A Somerset Rhapsody which opens the disc, with the cor anglais solo ravishingly played. Boult of course has unique authority in this music, and the Lyrita analogue recordings — among the finest of their period — still sound superb, with clean focus and separation.

Yet quite apart from the intrinsic quality of Lloyd-Jones’s performances with the Scottish orchestra, and the formidable advantage of price, his grouping of works is more generous than that on either rival disc. The six works are neatly balanced, three dating from before the climactic period of The Planets and The Hymn of Jesus, and three after. Particularly valuable — and not included on either rival disc — is the atmospheric Invocation for cello and orchestra of 1911, rather dismissed by Imogen Holst, but here given a yearningly intense, deeply thoughtful performance with Tim Hugh as soloist.

A highly recommendable offering, whether for the dedicated Holstian or the newcomer wanting to investigate this composer’s more characteristic work outside The Planets.

Turn off that familiarity and just listen to it for its own merits. That’s hard work. I’m trying to do it more and more lately. Yesterday I did Beethoven’s 5th – and for the first time realised that virtually every bar of the first movement is a variation on "da da da daaah"; I’m not the biggest Beethoven fan but the greatness of it really reached me for the first time. Overexposure can be a bad thing and it can spoil great things if you don’t keep it under control.

I’ve had exactly the same experience with the 5th. The rhythmic incisiveness of the first movement seems almost superhuman once you take a step back. The opening motif is there even underpinning the elegant second subject – but totally appropriately, inevitably. The bit that really takes my breath away though is at end of the exposition, when it transforms into a cascading major fanfare.

The 7th has a similar level of concentrated motivic development, and is definitely among my favourite symphonies by anyone. I love the way Beethoven seems to ‘explain’ his default tremolo string setting at the beginning of the coda to the first movement – a crescendo over a weird chromatic bass where violins gradually foreshorten a rhythmic figure until it becomes that orgasmic tremolo; as if this formal rigour and energy is latently there all the time packed into every gesture, every colour..

[sorry, that doesn’t really make sense – I get very purple sometimes thinking about my favourite music ;)]

I’m considering going to Unsuk Chin’s Cello Concerto on the 14th of August.. Also there’s Bruckner 3 at some point. It depends on work 🙁 Would love to have gone to tonight’s Creation (new translation and all). The Mackerras concert also sounds tasty..

It’s not quiet – it’s a truly glorious recording that captures the sound of a symphony orchestra in a concert hall, quite unlike most made today. No fake reverb, no dynamics compression, no loudness war – just a splendid ensemble performing in a beautiful hall. Lens: Is this the Henry Wood Hall?

And – I live near Hammersmith. It’s nothing like this piece of music! It’s one endless traffic jam.

The problem is many times I find myself using music to drown out the noises around me such as my dad’s radio and whistling, or my brother’s playing of his terrible indie music on his tinny macbook speakers or the sound of the fan on a hot day such as today. Thus I need something a little louder so that I can actually hear the subtle beauty of it while properly using it to drown out the other sounds.
I am sure it sounds wonderful in a concert hall with a quiet audience but sadly I am rarely in such a situation so the often varied dynamics of the music can be quite iritating. I turn up the quieter parts so that I can hear them at the same volume as everything else around me only to be blown away when the music reaches the "ordinary" loudness level.

tangotreats

07-19-2009, 02:16 AM

Don’t get me wrong, I understand… 😉

Try listening to this in your car. Silence… silence… silence… BOOM BOOM BOOM AAAAAAAAARGH!!! *smash / police sirens*… Silence… silence… silence.

It just bothers me that people hear a good recording and think there’s something wrong with it. It’s a symptom of the horrid loudness wars, and of a decade of symphonic recordings made by engineers who don’t have the foggiest idea how to record an orchestra, or capture it in its natural environment. The modern technique is to stuff a microphone into every instrument you can, record on five million tracks, mix the bejeezus out of it all in the mastering studio, whack on a tonne of fake reverb and compress the shit out of it so that it ALL sounds loud – even the quiet bits.

Even if it’s inconvenient to listen to, it’s still nice to hear a recording like this – that sounds like a bunch of people sitting in a large room playing instruments, as it should be. Judiciously placed microphones capturing sections and hall ambience. The conductor is your mixing desk – if you’ve got the levels right and the microphones in a decent place, you don’t need multitrack and you don’t need a desk. The concert hall is your reverb console. There is no dynamics compression – because there isn’t in real life, and one of the most important, miraculous features of the modern symphony orchestra is its ability to play the most delicate pianissimo, right through to ear-shattering end-of-the-world fortissimo.

When I am listening to music, I don’t want to hear the recording – I want to hear the music; and approximate as much as possible the experience of being there. It isn’t about technology – it’s about humans talking to other humans with the universal language of music.

(Apologies – many people here have called me a snob, and I don’t deny that for a moment where this kind of thing is concerned. Feel free to ignore my fevered ranting. :))

Sirusjr

07-19-2009, 02:44 AM

Oh no I didn’t want to suggest the recording had anything wrong with it. It is a wonderful recording to have such a variety of dynamics and sound so wonderful. The biggest problem comes when I leave sounds on for my aol instant messenger and turning up the master volume leaves me with a startling DING every time someone talks to me. I think the major reason I don’t have as much of an appreciation for the re-creation of being there is that I don’t sit through live classical all that much if at all.

My only complaint is overall the album is so quiet!! I have to crank my speakers to double my normal volume to enjoy it at some parts.

I’m mostly with danny on this one, but I do know what you mean. For mp3 listening I tend to avoid very natural sounding recordings such as this – they really show up the weakness of even the best LAME (though funnily enough the Holst came out pretty ok with V-0).

I don’t know about you, but I play my mp3s on the bus through my zen and the shitty headphones it came with. Not ideal. This Naxos cd sounds gorgeous on our modest denon hi-fi though (and it’s VERY temperamental with classical). I just don’t much like listening ‘seriously’ to music in such compromised quality, and some recordings are more ‘artificial’ shall we say and suit the mp3 treatment better.

Film music doesn’t often go for the concert hall sound (though some of Goldsmith’s with this same orchestra do so very persuasively), so it’s less of a problem there too. And being a fan of film scores and game music, I actually quite like the overmiked, fake reverb etc on occasion. I’m not quite the purist danny is 🙂

There is definitely no gain or other fiddles that could sensibly be applied to these Holst tracks. It would cause all kinds of hideous distortion. It’s a great shame that we can’t all just sit with great hi-fi equipment in a marble hall with busts of all the great composers looking approvingly while we absorb their music in ideal quality.. [the lp cover posted recently in the orchestral thread puts a very interesting spin on this.. but Beethoven looks none too happy :(]

LAME is great but it’s not perfect. Well, actually, strike that – LAME is pretty much perfect but MP3 is just inadequate for some things. Particularly symphonic music. But it does its best – and with the right settings and the latest version, it can do wonders – even for killer samples. 3.98.2, Joint Stereo, VBR, and a lowpass filter are the four very best solutions.

Don’t get me wrong – that recording technique has a place, and sometimes it’s the best technique to use – particularly with composers like Goldsmith who need a certain kind of clarity that can’t be achieved 100% in the concert hall.

It just worries me when someone hears a lifelike recording and thinks there is something wrong with it because it doesn’t sound like it was recorded by Alan "Compressors and Gain and Reverb To Max" Meyerson.

It sets a dangerous prececent when perceptions shift to interpret the inferior as the superior. It happened with film music (we live in a world where growing numbers of people think Williams is old fashioned and irrelevant, and Ramin Dwajidi / etc are going to lead the new golden age of film scoring) and it (is) happenn(ed/ing) to symphonic recording. Classical music is still… mostly… engineered sensibly but that is changing. A great pity because most symphony orchestras are still at the top of their game, and are capable of performing such beautiful sounds, and for the first time technology is sufficiently advanced that we could capture them in a recording – but we never will because recording today is about volume and clarity – not subtlety and realism.

It’s a great shame that we can’t all just sit with great hi-fi equipment in a marble hall with busts of all the great composers looking approvingly while we absorb their music in ideal quality..

The problem with volume differences is the same in all genres for me. I don’t like to be listening to one or two FLAC rips of my Metal CDs and then switch to another only to have it be half the volume. Then when I turn it up for that one, when i switch to another that is the same volume as the first two, I am blown away. I like everything to be a uniform volume so that I don’t have to worry about turning the volume back down after something quiet.

It sets a dangerous prececent when perceptions shift to interpret the inferior as the superior.

I’m tempted to open a can of worms here on contemporary culture and the popular mindset that puts such severe limitations on what music is allowed to be (ie music = a song) and always shuns subtlety and depth in favour of the obvious.

Slightly off topic, have you seen ‘How to be a composer’ on BBC4 with Paul Morely? I hate this pontificating pseud anyway, but this was nightmare television. *Perhaps* a well-intentioned attempt to expand people’s notion of what music can be.. It came off more as an excruciating vanity trip for Morely (and by extension arrogant musical ignoramuses everywhere). I can’t believe the Royal Academy conspired in this! I felt hurt and betrayed on behalf of the few REAL composers I know. The only word for it is SICK. There’s almost an ‘Office’ style of cringe-making humour in there if you can put yourself in the right frame of mind.

I knew I shouldn’t have watched it, but I’m too much of a masochist!

Forget that – I want a time machine!!

Ah yes, but wouldn’t we be shocked by the standard of the playing? In Beethoven’s day I think we would. We’re so used to the uber-virtuosity of modern orchestras that can toss off the Rite of Spring without breaking a sweat.

Perhaps the extra grit would be a good thing though..

Thanks for Symphony n???6!

About the sound volume topic, just one comment: Orchestral music was invented centuries ago and was only meant to be listened live, in a dedicated hall, not in a bus or in a room with your family doing noisy stuff around. So it’s normal it doesn’t go very well with these situations. Orchestral music isn’t meant to be sonic wallpaper, it’s grand music, meant to be listened to with attention, respect, and in a good (i.e. calm) environment. To make a culinary comparison: if you’re a true gastronom, you don’t eat fast-food and high-end french cuisine the same way.

Simply put: composers use soft dynamics for a reason and it isn’t to annoy the listener. It’s sad that there are so many recording engineers that don’t understand this. I had to argue with one for 20 minutes a few weeks ago because he wanted to level out the volume on one of my pieces.

The generation of recording engineers who respected music as an artform has tragically largely died out or retired now – and those who remain are under pressure from blockhead studio executives who complain that their recordings are "quieter" than those made by other engineers and therefore there must be something wrong with them.

Recording used to be about trying to bring the sound of live musicians into your home – to make the recording medium as transparent as possible and simply render the music, within a natural ambience, as accurately and as lifelike as possible.

The rot has set in faster outside of orchestral music, but the "loudness wars" have now made their mark on every single genre of recorded music.

Dharma: What genre are you working in? Was it a studio session? Did you win in the end?

I write concert and film music but have yet to enjoy the pleasure of working with live musicians – so I have these battles to look forward to… :/

Do you ever find yourself reaching for the volume control to actually replicate REAL concert dynamics?? I know I do. I hate it when something marked deep in the ‘p’s comes out mezzo forte in a recording – and the corollary of weakened crescendos. Gergiev’s Rite of Spring is one such offender; though viscerally exciting, it’s all over the place as a recording.

At the other end of the spectrum, some breathtakingly natural, expansive modern recordings I treasure are: Andrew Davis’ Vaughan Williams 6 (with gorgeous accounts of the Tallis Fantasia and Lark Ascending), anything with Vernon Handley and the Liverpool Phil, Ricardo Chailly’s Mahler symphonies.. I’m a particular fan of Goldsmith’s recordings of The Sand Pebbles and Patton with the Royal Scottish National as well – but the huge dynamics are often met with distain by film score fans.

[Btw, could anyone recommend me a good ‘Rite’?]

This topic about dynamics reminds of when I recently pulled out some of my old LPs. I was so used to a more limited dynamic range from recent CDs that when a sudden crescendo hit I actually got scared that I’d blow my speakers. But then when I turned down the volume to a comfortable level it seemed "too quiet".

This discussion is the polar opposite of another discussion on the FSM board where somebody recommended running older recordings thru a tube compressor to get a "bigger sound" 🙂 – supporting your ending comment Lens….

What might be cool in the future is that we will get music in a form in which we can set dynamics and reverb to our own taste. Maybe the default will be "rock" or "classical" etc…but you could go into the ID tag and change the preference. iTunes now lets you change and save the EQ settings as well as starting and ending points which is a step in that direction. To make compression and reverb optional would be much more drastic of course, requiring a major industry rethink as to how music is distributed. But who knows. Actually I think I’ve seen a "karaoke" option on some players as well.

A great cd for this is Pletnev’s first recording of Tchaikovsky’s Pathetique Symphony. The sudden explosion at the start of the first movement development nearly gives me a heart attack every time, even though I know it’s coming!! And I wouldn’t have it any other way 🙂

Interesting, I wouldn’t be surprised. It’d be a totally useless feature for me. Anyway, I’m sure there’s already software out there that lets you boost the quiet bits etc.

This is my fav version of Rite (on video at least) and added immeasurably to my appreciation of the piece:

With utmost respect, that would be one of the biggest disasters to befall recorded music. Reverb is nonsense. If your recording was competently made in the first place then you already have all the reverb you need. It is useful for one reason: Restoration / remastering of bad recordings that you can’t remake.

Ditto EQ. Basically useless as far as lifelike reproduction is concerned.

Actually if you go to the website it does have something like that where Michael walks you thru the score. I can’t remember how detailed it got, I think I eventually just obtained the full score in pdf form just so I could analyze it at my leisure. But no, the dvd doesn’t have a scrolling score feature, tho that’d be cool.

It’s a big download, yeah. I got it thru a demonoid torrent, took a couple days…but it’s pretty great, documentary about Igor, the piece, then Michael takes apart the piece with a live orchestra demonstrating different effects….(also the sound is in 5.1 and is thundering).

Reverb and EQ – used by the ignorant to get a "better" sound.

I think you misunderstood my intent :). I actually meant that an option to REMOVE any artificial reverb or EQ would be a cool thing to have.
For example, Stu Phillips’ Battlestar Galactica came out in 2 versions: the 25th Anniversary "domestic" edition (with composer-approved added reverb and some kind of "exciter effect" and compression) and the German 1993 CD which is very natural sounding and raw. I think it would be cool to have 1 CD where you get the German "raw" master, but then you could have the "Stu Phillips remaster setting" as an option if you so preferred. In fact there are several later Goldsmith recordings in which he uses far more reverb (or the hall is bigger) than his recordings from the ’70s, and I guess I’d prefer an option to hear a "70’s mix". Do I want to sit in the nosebleed seats or in the front row, that kind of thing?

Putting aside reverb and EQ tho, recently Guitar Hero game tracks have surfaced on torrent sites. I mean INDIVIDUAL instrument tracks of classic rock songs from the likes of Rush and The Who, etc… Because of this, some ambitious people have been able to take these tracks and been able to remix entire albums into 5.1 surround DVDAs. As a musician/composer, it’s been a real revelation to hear raw, unaccompanied guitar and drum tracks from these artists. Now if music in the future (tho possibly not orchestral music) could have the plasticity of having a consumer be able to remix music to their own preference (but still have a default "compose-approved" mix) I would be quite happy! In fact I guarantee there would be a market for something like that.

I entirely agree dooj17. I have a few classical dvds such as one bach organ dvd with Toccata and Fugue in D minor and other classics and listening to it in 5.1 surround is absolutely wonderful. The same thing you mention was released with the latest Dream Theater album (with the ultimate collector’s edition) so that fans have made various mixes of the album. It is really nice indeed.
EDIT: Also my Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra version of Tchaikovsky 1812 overture on DTS surround is sublime! Cannon fire and all!

You’re too sanctimonious here, my friend.

Some old or badly done recordings are really not easy to listen, so when you apply reverb and EQ, and you do it correctly, knowing what you do, the result can be really whorth it.

One precise example: the Ogre Battle Symphonic Suite I posted some months ago had 2 notable problems 1) an orchestra too small recorded in a tiny hall = lack of reverb, 2) like often in old recordings, the mid-range frequencies were way too high, producing an aggressive and un-natural sound.

1) can be easily fixed by applying a good reverb (not a shitty, amateurish one – I’ve tried dozens of reverb tools), and 2) can be fixd by any common EQ changer, like the one in Winamp, to diminish the excessive frequencies (in this case, I lowered the 3 kHz range by 2 dB).

Concerning the compression topic, there are many Winamp plugins doing that, but I’m mostly disappointed by them, because the orchestral music doesn’t sound natural: when a powerful cue is meant to come, what you have instead is a weak, muffled sound, thus removing the original dynamics, the sense of lightness and power the composer intended to express.

Isn’t that EXACTLY what I just said? Allow me to quote myself in the relevant sections:

If your recording was competently made in the first place then you already have all the reverb you need. It is useful for… Restoration / remastering of bad recordings that you can’t remake.

That said, surely it’s obvious that when I refer to reverb and EQ being used by the ignorant, I am clearly referring to people taking very good recordings and doing dumb things to them (like a former friend of mine who re-EQ’d all his CDs to boost the bass by ridiculous amounts – so that his car vibrated more and he could piss off other motorists with his music.

Again – if a recording is a good one, and has been made by a competent engineer at an appropriate venue – then equalisation is not necessary and neither is artificial reverb.

Some are better than others but you can’t just "apply" a plugin to any piece of music and expect a good result – for a compressor to work properly it requires tuning and precise configuration as appropriate to the music in question. Otherwise, as you say, it will end up sounding bloody awful.

I think people are coming at this from different angles. No one in support of artificial, post facto twiddles has offered an example of where this would be useful (or even appropriate) in a modern classical recording. This is the classical thread after all, and in that context I think danny is totally justified to take such strong exception. Talking about a ‘mix’ or ‘re-mix’ in classical music has much more disturbing connotations than in genres born into the recording industry and popular culture – including film music.

Danny – As far as mixing and stuff I agree that usually it is not worth doing. If I do anything to alter my albums, I apply replay-gain on the album to attempt to equalize the track volume somewhat so the album has a uniform volume to some extent.
I also find various equalizer settings are nice because you can hear different instruments more pronounced in other settings then you might on just a flat equalizer. If you listen to the same album over and over, it helps you gain a better appreciation for the quality of each instrument used and not just the ones the sound engineer decided to bring to the front and make pronounced through the mixing.
Just as there is music that I find too quiet there are numerous times, especially at live rock shows from smaller bands, that i can barely stand the music because the group decided that they want the bass guitar to be loud and i can’t hear the vocals. Rock, metal and pop to me are occasionally about the instrumentation but most importantly about the quality of the singer and their beautiful tones. When you can’t hear the singing above the rest of the album it is a terrible shame.

I’m pretty big into interactivity with my music (as well as being a semi-professional sound mixer) so I guess my angle would be different than a purist’s – so guilty on that one :).

But what if you had the power to say to John Williams to mute those synth tracks and push up those live choral tracks (referring to a hypothetical situation related to the Holst Planets recording, if such tracks existed)? This all goes back to my attempt to "speed up" the Herrmann Jason suite. If it were possible to artificially bring those tracks up to "film" speed (and not destroy the integrity of the recording itself) – yep, that’s the version I would be playing in my iPod now. I don’t think any of these options would be damaging in any way because these would just be additional choices. The consumer would still have the "composer-approved, critically-acclaimed" version of the mix as well…

Good Lord, I am with you there, Siriusjr! Actually I have remastered a few bootleg soundboards and you can’t imagine the gyrations I’ve had to go thru to tease out the vocals or guitar sometimes.

I’m pretty big into interactivity with my music (as well as being a semi-professional sound mixer) so I guess my angle would be different than a purist’s – so guilty on that one :).

First of all, as a sound mixer, your angle should be more the purist than all of us put together – your job is to capture reality on tape, disc, or whatever. Stop thinking about the technology (it is, after all, merely a means to an end) and instead think about that most beautiful, romantic concept – humans making music together, speaking to one-another through the one, completely universal, limitless language that unites us all.

Well, it’s a moot point because I won’t be listening to that album again, full stop – there are far, far better interpretations of The Planets out there, and as far as I know, all of them but this one actually use an orchestra, choir, and organ – as dictated in Holst’s score. 😉

This all goes back to my attempt to "speed up" the Herrmann Jason suite. If it were possible to artificially bring those tracks up to "film" speed (and not destroy the integrity of the recording itself) – yep, that’s the version I would be playing in my iPod now. I don’t think any of these options would be damaging in any way because these would just be additional choices. The consumer would still have the "composer-approved, critically-acclaimed" version of the mix as well…

You do realise that if Herrmann were alive and he read that, he would stop whatever he was doing, come and find you, and beat you repeatedly with a rolled up copy of the score whilst yelling "YOU KNOW NOTHING!!!!!" – then he’d set fire to your house. 😉

There are two problems with that. "Artificially" anything is bad news. Herrmann made a recording that you don’t like – and I don’t like it either. So I don’t listen to it. I don’t try to f**k around with it digitally so it sounds like I think it should sound – because to do so would be an affront to his artistry. I don’t like it, I think it was a mistake, but I respect Herrmann and his right to do what he thought was best with his music. I definitely don’t play back great music at chipmunk speed to make it sound more exciting.

I have to say I’m enjoying this topic. Everybody has some great points, that’s for sure. But…

The difference in opinion here really goes down to what each person believes is the best way to represent music in it’s purist form. Technology definitely helps to achieve that end. To say "stop thinking about the technology" is kind of throwing the baby out with the bath water. A trumpet is technology. Admittedly I have no experience with orchestral music so I may blowing smoke to some degree but if technology can bring the consumer additional listening options then I’m all for it. Did I mention before that we would all be getting versions of the piece in it’s rawest, most "wooden" form? I keep feeling that that part is not stressed enough.

I see that is being no different than Elmer Bernstein conducting a Herrmann piece at a different tempo. In fact Herrmann himself was told to sit down and shut up at the Gerhardt recording sessions of his own pieces. Herrmann was also a great supporter of different interpretations of his music so you may be wrong about the burning of the house part. He would probably still beat me tho. But then a half hour later he would buy me a drink :). And then never speak to me again…

When I say "technology" I am not referring to the music, the musicians, nor the tools with which they actually make the music. I’m referring to the means by which the music is committed to whatever recording medium you’re working with.

Recording technology is at a simply stunning level of maturity. Used correctly, allows a good engineer to capture reality. But surely the utopian situation with recording technology is to perfect it to the extent where you are just hearing music.

Admittedly I have no experience with orchestral music so I may blowing smoke to some degree but if technology can bring the consumer additional listening options then I’m all for it.

I’m probably blowing orchestral-bias smoke as well, although I think that a lot of what I say is true of all kinds of music. There is a great deal more "production" in other genres however – some of which is a direct result of the technology. Some of what makes the music what it is… is explicitly engineered. The Beatles, for instance – all sorts of studio tricks – backwards tape, looping, phasing, overdubbing – you name it.

But they were using the technology to make music.

That’s different to what I’m talking about – using technology to distort existing music. 🙂

Did I mention before that we would all be getting versions of the piece in it’s rawest, most "wooden" form? I keep feeling that that part is not stressed enough.

Good music is never wooden. If it’s a crappy performance, or a lifeless recording, it may be wooden – but that’s not the fault of the music. A good recording of a good performance of good music is the ideal.

Haha! I’d have enjoyed watching him sitting in the chair, fuming… 😉

However – that was Gerhardt’s recording. He makes the rules. Obviously as Herrmann was the composer, his thoughts should be considered – but ultimately there’s that subtle difference between Gerhardt’s and Herrmann’s interpretations simply differing – and the possibility that one interpretation may be just plain bad.

I think Herrmann’s Argonauts was bad. Doesn’t mean I’m going to start messing around with it in Adobe Audition though. 😉

Herrmann was also a great supporter of different interpretations of his music so you may be wrong about the burning of the house part. He would probably still beat me tho. But then a half hour later he would buy me a drink :). And then never speak to me again…

That sounds a lot more like Herrmann – changeable, fierce, steadfast, and stubborn as a mule. I can’t imagine him being too pleased at somebody saying "I think you conducted this piece too slowly, so I played your records really fast to make it sound better"…

What would I give for a chance to have met the man… 🙂

6. II. La mort d’Oph???lie (Ballade)
7. III. Marche fun???bre pour la derni???re sc???ne d’Hamlet

Two Belioz masterpieces for you! Harold in Italy features another of those recurring themes of his; this one’s absolutely beautiful, almost like a lullaby, introduced by the solo viola at 3:25. Some edge of the seat rhythmic stuff in the orgiastic final movement – THIS is how to write action music!!

For incredible dynamic contrasts that will knock you out of your chair listen to the Funeral March piece that ends the Tristia triptych. It’s beyond epic!! The ghostly murmur of the choir at the end is stunning. Who needs tube compressors? 🙂

I felt a bit ambitious so I included a few scans. There are some concise notes and a pic of Gardiner looking rather distinguished (a friend of mine interviewed him a few years back and apparently he’s a supercilious so and so. But I say he’s allowed to be!).

I’m not a massive fan of Karl Jenkins, truth be told. Went to a concert of his here in Liverpool a while ago (a friend was singing with the Welsh Choral). He has some great melodic ideas but then just repeats them over and over. It didn’t help that his music was completely upstaged by Handel’s evergreen ‘Zadok the Priest’ and a Bach organ concerto of all things (you never hear Bach in the concert hall anymore).

I did used to enjoy that tune from Adiemus that was used as the title piece for the ‘Testament’ Bible animations. But I had no idea he’d done 4! Maybe I should cautiously dip my toe into that one too.

Edit: Sirus – this Coba cd is the strangest concoction. There’s everything from klezmer to James Bond (or is it the temple theme from Zelda II? ;)). Fun listen!

Extreme Classics (RCA Victor)

"Amazon.com:
With so many compilation CDs billing themselves as being perfect for "romantic moments" or "young minds," it’s refreshing to find a CD that attempts to do nothing but get your blood pumping. And Extreme Classics does just that; there’s not a single Bach excerpt, and even Vivaldi’s summer storm from The Four Seasons couldn’t make the cut. Instead, we get snippets of Wagner’s "Ride of the Valkyries" (from Die Walkure), the conclusion of Ravel’s Bolero, as well as the finale of Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture. The "extreme" moniker might be a bit misleading (save that for Stockhausen!), but these are great cuts that will have your heart racing. The recordings by included conductors Leonard Slatkin, Fritz Reiner, and Eugene Ormandy are all classics. Crank it up and watch the neighbors complain! –Jason Verlinde"

I have lots of Stockhausen, too if you want extreme – "Mikrophonie I" anyone?

Sirus – some good tracks there definitely. Compilation warhorses and a few more surprising choices like the Sea Symphony and Grand Canyon Suite (I can post the whole of this gorgeous piece if anyone would like). Thank you for the Busoni concerto too!

dooj – Stockhausen would be very welcome! I’ve never got into him at all and I don’t think any has appeared thus far in the thread.

danny – how was The Planets with Charlie Mac?? I caught a bit of Jupiter on the box before going out and I thought the big tune was very stately and powerful. Surely Sir Charles had something to offer in Saturn..?

tangotreats

Sadly, I found it really underwhelming – the applause in the hall was deafening and there was even a stamping ovation during which Mackerras was called back to the stage five times. He’s in stunning shape for a man of 85 – his conducting is a litle less energetic than I’ve seen, and he occasionally perched on a small chair on the podium during quieter moments – but he never flinched. A truly amazing man.

Unfortunately, the performance sent me to sleep. I quite enjoyed the Elgar (one of my favourite pieces of classical music, full stop) although I found the Delius quite lifeless and awfully dull. Even Clive Anderson and his guests weren’t enjoying it. I was in the box three to the right of the TV box and they were sitting there fidgiting about, talking to each other, looking bored, etc. And every five minutes, a makeup lady could sweep in and polish Clive Anderson’s (epic) forehead. Most exciting.

So, to The Planets. A technically adept, highly professional, very tight performance. I think any broadcaster would be proud to have an orchestra that good – and of course, the Philharmonic is only second in command. The BBC’s five orchestras always were, and remain, absolutely stunning – one of the few British institutions we can still be truly proud of.

But the whole thing left me feeling strangely emotionless. It was quite a robotic performance – it just happened and then it stopped. Venus thankfully avoided modern conductors’ attempts to play the thing like a passionate love scene. Mackerras shaped it very smooth and very broad – I don’t think Venus works when you pour on too much schmaltz, but Mackerras kept it just the right side of restrained.

Mercury sounded like one of his wings were broken – a bit sluggish for my tastes, and the woodwinds dancing around sounded again very mechanical. There was no shape – the notes were just played.

Jupiter was solid enough but the middle section failed to grab me entirely – it was more like "I will sorta-try but no promises or anything to thee my Country" – strangely non-committal to my ears.

Saturn was the biggest disaster of the night, unfortunately. I’ve never heard so much vibrato in ALL MY LIFE – even in the alternating woodwind chords at the beginning, it was just too much. I always thought Saturn should be cold, detatched, and vaguely other-worldly. It is, after all, a final gasp before death. But no, it was played like a late romantic tone poem. Didn’t like it, not at all.

Uranus – not too bad; brass was very impressive but nothing standout. Just a playthrough, not really a performance.

Neptune – nice touch to plonk the BBC Singers upstairs in the Gallery – it truly sounded as if their voices were pouring down from the sky. Unfortunately the overall performance was again somewhat drab, and the finale, with the choir alternating between chords and gradually fading into nothingness… was too fast, the singers faltered, and I think the tempo was flaky too. Mackerras didn’t conduct the choir – there was a separate conductor in the Gallery so I don’t know if they’re to blame…

So, there you go – the only time I heard louder applause was during the MASSIVELY WELL DESERVED standing ovation at the Philharmonia’s Gurrelieder earlier this year – the audience obviously loved it, but it didn’t really resonate with me at all. Oh well – you win some, you loose some.

I’ll upload the concert this evening.

Stockhausen was my favorite composer for about 15 years and now I kind of regret being sucked into his world because it pushed away all kinds of classical music which I am just now getting into. Do you have any specific request? I will up "Gruppen" for 3 orchestras unless you have another preference. But first I have a Wagner 2CD in my queue…

I’ll up Stockhausen this afternoon. I know you all are very open-minded (no sarcasm here – really) but ol’ KS can be extremely…well lets just say some of his music would fall closer to a Godzilla sound effects suite. So I’ll first up some stuff which was played at the BBC Proms – ie – orchestral stuff. But later I will probably up something VERY UN-Orchestral just to get some reactions;).

In short, Stockhausen would be the outer-space version of Wagner crossed with Ben Burtt (the sound designer for the Star Wars films). He also wrote 7 operas, 1 for each day of the week, and they involve time-travel, aliens and one piece even has 4 helicopters in it. I actually have the DVD to that one.

Wasn’t the Helicopters thing something to do with a String Quartet…?

The Helicopter String Quartet is part of an opera, I forget which one. In fact he states that every piece he’s written from 1975 to 2004 or so is part of one of the 7 operas of Light (Licht). Also all of his operas have "parts" which can (and often are) performed separately. At the Proms concert they "performed" the electronics-only portion of a piece (well the CD player did anyways). Pretty crafty, he can gets 3 performances out of 1 piece.

I’m going to start a Stockhausen thread, I’ve been meaning to start a Herrmann thread and do a chronological discography, but I just copied a bunch of KS to my HD right now so I guess I’ll do him first.

OK Stockhausen thread is here (Thread 67993). I’d like to keep it separate because then otherwise I won’t able to shut up.

Lens of Truth

07-27-2009, 09:56 PM

Sorry to hear the concert was a disappointment. I’ve had that feeling with Mackerras before (both live and on record) of ‘just playing the notes’. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. Saturn is absolutely crucial – I’m not sure why, but it seems like the heart of the piece to me – and sadly it’s often misjudged.

dooj, you will have to be the guiding hand when it comes to Stockhausen. One of the problems I’ve had is that I just don’t know where to begin!

And thank you for the Wagner. It’s always a pleasure to hear new performances of his overtures. Grand Canyon Suite will be up in a day or two 🙂

I’ve read that this was the piece that Kurosawa asked Toru Takemitsu to based his music when composing for Ran.
Here’s Ran trailer with Takemitsu original music where ,I suppose, it’s based from that Mahler-inspired work.

By the way the music piece from this Mahler work, that serve as inspiration for Ran is "V. Der Abschied (The farewell)".
It’s only a few notes actually, and is quite different in tone than Ran which is much more dramatic. And Takemitsu was a enough talented composer to create something original of his own, rather then copy/paste jobs from other works.

When I’m sick, I tend to do annoyingly complicated things to distract me from how terrible I feel. You lucky people – the result of today’s efforts is this:

GEORGE GERSHWIN
RHAPSODY IN BLUE

The Paul Whiteman Band
George Gershwin, piano

1927 Recording

This is my own transfer, and extensive remaster, from this British HMV pressing of Gershwin’s famous 1927 recording of Rhapsody in Blue. He recorded the piece twice with Whiteman’s band – once in 1924 with the old acoustic process, and again three years later in this electric recording.

I rescued this 82 year-old record from a dusty car boot sale when I was 11. The guy selling it took pity on me because I was just a kid and let me have it for 10p. I didn’t like to tell him that he had just given me a piece of musical history! I said thank you and ran off, clutching this wonderful record in my hands.

At the time, I only had a crummy record player (also from the ubiquitous car boot sale) and although this record sounded awfully good for its vintage, it never really shone. It went into a box in my wardrobe… and came out this afternoon. About five years ago I was going into business with a friend from work as a startup media company, so I had a brand new turntable custom built, and commissioned a diamond-grinding company to make me three needles. (Incidentally, SOMEBODY ELSE paid for this! I am a poor man! Just thought I’d add that so you don’t think I’m some arrogant rich bastard who can afford such luxuries…!) I won’t go on about the long complicated history of record restoration – I’ll just say that on older records (over simplifying for the sake of brevity) it is sometimes prudent to play them with a special stylus that has had the tip sawn off – that way, the needle doesn’t reach the bottom of the groove (where the damage, dust, mold, and what have you is usually worst) and so you reduce the noise. The venture fell through, and when the man went travelling, I inherited the turntable and the needles, and I went off to do audio restoration and production freelance – and the rest is history…! (Honesty time: I didn’t expect the business to work out… I really just wanted the turntable. I had my eyes on it from the beginning. *shame*)

Enjoy this gorgeous performance of Rhapsody in Blue the way it was intended – in its original jazz band arrangement, and with the infectious solo piano of the great Gershwin himself!

Mvt 1: The 2 lovely themes that interchange and develop
Mvt 2: The piano imitates the sounds of crickets chirping in the night

GEORGE GERSHWIN
RHAPSODY IN BLUE

The Paul Whiteman Band
George Gershwin, piano

1927 Recording

Danny Sir, you are the Man. I love this recording of Rhapsody in Blue! It is such an amazing recording, with Gershwin him self playing the piano! I love it! My parents have this EXACT same record, but sadly it is in poor shape. Also acquired at a yard sale, there is a large gash about mid way through the record that must be manually skipped past. I am so happy you transferred this so I can hear this in its entirety. I also MUST applaud you on how clean and clear this sounds for how old of a recording this is. Whatever you did to clean up the audio worked our very well!

I have a recording conducted by Michael Tilson Thomas that I will have to dig out and put up here for you in return for your awesome presentation of the classic recording 😀

Details from Varese Sarabande site.

Magic Fire
By Erich Wolfgang Korngold
Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
This title is now sold out

Limited Edition of 1000 copies

Music Composed by Richard Wagner
Adapted and Supervised by Erich Wolfgang Korngold

Williams Dieterle???s 1955 film biography was the last film to be scored by the great Erich Wolfgang Korngold. Though retired from film scoring since 1947, Dieterle coaxed the master composer into returning in order to adapt and supervise all of the film???s music. Korngold would be free to choose repertoire, artists, orchestra, chorus and the recording venue, and Korngold???s wishes in musical/dramatic matters were to be adhered to without any interference. So while the music is by Wagner, this is Korngold???s baby, through and through. And what a baby it is! Magic Fire is a thrilling tribute from one legendary composer to another. The soundtrack also exhibits Korngold???s utter mastery at the piano.

The film starred Alan Badel as Wagner, Carlos Thompson as Franz Liszt and also featured both Yvonne De Carlo and Peter Cushing. Even Korngold himself appeared, playing conductor Hans Richter.

Magic Fire is a priceless historic document and a truly magical musical creation all its own.

The final curtain call of the great Erich Wolfgang Korngold is at last available on CD.

This special commemorative edition remembers both Erich Wolfgang Korngold and his son, the legendary music producer George Korngold. November 2007 marks the 50th anniversary of Erich???s death and the 20th anniversary of George???s. Neither will ever be forgotten.

The CD features the original extensive liner notes by George Korngold.

Thanks Sanico! This is perhaps mostly of curiosity value, but I love the tracks with Korngold at the piano. Moreover, it reminds me how much I NEED to see this film! William Dieterle was a brilliant, undervalued director, with a great visual sense, and an ability to modulate ‘tone’ to magical effect – a thing sadly now lost to cinema 😉

There’s a new recording of EWK’s arrangement of Mendelssohn’s music for A Midsummer Night’s Dream (1935 – another Dieterle production, with some exquisite, rich, pictorial imagery). I’m going to try to get my hands on it as soon as I can, and I’ll be sure to upload it here when I do.

Sirusjr – The Cunning Little Vixen is much appreciated too. Great upgrade from the suite I have.

TCHAIKOVSKY – SWAN LAKE
(Complete Ballet)
Charles Dutoit, Montr???al Symphony Orchestra

MP3-V0 + Scans
http://www.mediafire.com/?8ksbw1ujbep8ubs
http://www.mediafire.com/?7ic2aa0bu2amcv3

From the Gramophone review:

The Montreal performance is in every way recommendable. The very opening sets the seal on Dutoit’s approach and the aptness of his pacing, with the warm introduction leading through a perfectly managed accelerando to the Allegro giusto, and elsewhere the tempo relationships maintain the structural flow of Tchaikovsky’s four carefully conceived sections, almost like the four movements of a ballet-symphony, with a distinct key structure. Yet Dutoit revels in the imaginative orchestral colour and the diversity of the individual sections of the "Pas de deux", "Pas de trois", "Pas de six" and the famous "Danses de cygnes". It is above all a romantic reading, and rises to the occasion, appropriately reaching its peak in the great final scene, where the Swan theme is giving its frisson-creating transformation at the B major climax. Here the resplendent Decca recording is wonderfully expansive, and throughout the glowing St Eustache acoustic adds much to the beauty of the sound. There is an excellent introduction on the work’s history from Noel Goodwin and John Warrack’s exemplary synopsis not only relates the narrative to the music, number by number, but tells us about the composer’s self-borrowings from his operas Undine and The Voyevoda. I would now regard Dutoit as a clear first choice.

TCHAIKOVSKY – THE NUTCRACKER
(Complete Ballet)
Valery Gergiev, Kirov Orchestra

MP3-V0 + Scans
http://www.mediafire.com/?3rym3b4yl3e7hvb

Review in The New York Times:

For most of us, Tchaikovsky’s ballet ”The Nutcracker” probably means one of two things: the perennial magic of the stagework itself or a purely musical encounter with the beloved little dances that pepper the second act. But who would pause over the whole of Tchaikovsky’s musical work, every scene and transition, without the stagecraft and dancing? After all, ”The Nutcracker” isn’t exactly the ”Pathetique” Symphony.

Or is it? In a new recording by Valery Gergiev and the Kirov Orchestra ”The Nutcracker” takes on a symphonic aspect of unsuspected power and depth. While cleverness and brilliance may be routinely associated with Tchaikovsky’s evergreen score, Mr. Gergiev gives fresh meaning to those virtues in an interpretation that is anything but routine.

Listening to the Kirov’s vibrant playing here, one thinks of Toscanini’s definition of tradition as the last bad performance. At least in the West, tradition has glazed the rich textures of ”The Nutcracker” with a superficial gloss that reflects nothing much deeper than good tunes. Mr. Gergiev and his savvy Russian ensemble strip away that varnish to get at the counterpoint, the interior voices and their animating rhythms. End to end, it’s a heady process of rediscovery.

Again and again, one is reminded of Tchaikovsky’s lifelong fascination with music of the 18th century. Along with the sparkling clarity and motoric energy that Mr. Gergiev brings to the work at every turn, he also catches a distinctive edge of Sturm und Drang that charges Tchaikovsky’s music at unexpected points: in Drosselmeyer’s presentation of gifts, in the impassioned duet between Clara and the Nutcracker, even in the grand waltz that crowns the ballet.

Perhaps nowhere is Mr. Gergiev’s sense of the musical fabric more striking than in the transitional Act I tableau of the Christmas tree, leading to the ”Waltz of the Snowflakes.” The conductor achieves an aura of dramatic suspension and flow worthy of a well-fashioned symphonic movement; ”The Nutcracker’,’ Mr. Gergiev demonstrates, makes for compelling theater even on the stage of the imagination.

But above all, his seriously considered reading shows us an eveninglong symphonic work of unflagging vitality and invention. Tchaikovsky may have rued the wild popularity of his children’s tale, but that was after the creative fact. Mr. Gergiev takes us back to that first light of inspiration, and his orchestra plays as if guided by the composer’s own hand.

Sirusjr

08-31-2009, 06:19 AM

I forever hate the nutcracker and can’t get into it because the main themes were drilled into my head as Christmas tunes. I’m sure it is musically wonderful but i cringe everytime I listen to it.

Lens of Truth

08-31-2009, 06:31 AM

I’m betting it’s the suite you’re most familiar with.. Why not try the sample track I’ve included? It always reminds me of Horner for some reason. Other recommendations: ‘Polichinelle (The Clown)’, with a fabulous central section that Gergiev handles better than I’ve ever heard before; the ‘Intrada’, beginning with harp being strummed passionately, almost like a lute, and a gorgeously simple passionate theme that just grows and grows.

I can quite happily live without the cutesy ‘Overture’ and ‘March’ too, but I think you’ll be surprised at how fresh and vivid some of the other famous tunes are in this recording. He really goes for the baselines and syncopations 🙂

TCHAIKOVSKY – THE SLEEPING BEAUTY
(Complete Ballet)
Mikhail Pletnev, Russian National Orchestra

MP3-V0 + Scans
Disc 1: http://www.mediafire.com/?5umz3efjgfq56al
Disc 2: http://www.mediafire.com/?9do9md1gha65jnv

Gramophone:

Given the total engagement in every bar of this recording, especially the vivid and varied characterisation, one is left wondering why there appeared to be less of it in this team’s DG cycle of the Tchaikovsky symphonies. That Pletnev knows and loves this score was already obvious from his own piano arrangements of parts of it, and their recordings. And if ever proof was needed of the pianist’s ability to transfer completely intact to the orchestra his own special brand of fantasy and superfine articulacy, this is it. Hardly a minute passes without one’s ear being enchanted by an affective gesture of the utmost precision, poise and sensitivity (all the various solos are superbly done); and significantly, the now-familiar Pletnev ideal of the tactfully and revealingly balanced tutti does not result in anticlimax, as it did in some of the symphonies.

If you need convincing, try the last ten minutes of Act 2 – a symphonic impression of the 100year sleep, owing not a little to Wagner in its methods and to something of the magical workings of Tchaikovsky’s own sea music for The Tempest – and ask yourself if you have ever heard it as atmospherically shaded; the subtle glints of Tchaikovsky’s wonderful orchestration as well caught; or the transition from static contemplation, through the kiss, to genuinely joyful activity, as well-gauged. A very special combination of all the right choices made as regards dynamics, tempo and differentiation of mood and, like so much else in this performance, a scene whose potential I cannot recall having been as fully realized as it is here.

The DG sound for Pletnev is as vibrant as you could wish, with deep perspectives and a superbly managed ambience. The ‘magical’ scenes are bathed in the appropriate enchanted halo, yet the textures kept clear in the active, louder sections of the score. It is a fractionally more brilliant sound than DG supplied in the symphonies (at last, the timpani are fully in focus!) and if the cellos are occasionally obviously spotlit and the violins inclined to a very slight steeliness in their upper reaches (their lower ‘chest’ voices are as glorious as ever), there is no denying the expert matching of tone and body of these divided fiddles (the score abounds in antiphonal exchanges for them). Not an easy task with half of them pointing in a different direction. I suppose that if you are going to divide your first and second violin desks, the ideal would be to have a group of seconds who were all left-handed!

Sirusjr

08-31-2009, 04:35 PM

Ok lens, you convinced me. I’ll check out the full Nutcracker even though I may have to remove the over-popularized tracks for my sanity. I think it would be better to say horner reminds you of Tchaicovsky rather than the other way around though considering who came first.

Lens of Truth

08-31-2009, 05:20 PM

20. The Great Gate of Kiev 6:09

A treat for all fans of dark, burnished orchestral music. These are Leopold Stokowski’s orchestrations of various works by Modest Mussorgsky. Beginning with his arrangement of ‘A Night of Bald Mountain’ for Disney’s Fantasia – that lies somewhere in between the rough-hewn Mussorgsky original and Rimsky-Korsakov’s more refined version, and taking us through a ‘Symphonic Synthesis’ of the opera Boris Godunov (a masterpiece of musical narrative and atmosphere) to a grand setting of ‘Pictures at an Exhibitiion’. Originally a piano suite, ‘Pictures’ is best known in Ravel’s orchestration. Stokowski, though, does things a little differently, keeping the fulsome Russian flavour of the score (he omits two short numbers not present in the original manuscript that he deemed ‘too French’), and the orchestral texture is ripe and thick-set. The grotesquery of ‘Gnomus’ and ‘The Hut on Fowl’s Legs’ may make you think of a certain Mr Herrmann, and in the rousing finale, ‘The Great Gate of Kiev’, Stokowski treats the orchestra like a giant sonorous organ, with instruments blending and swelling over a pedal bass, while bells chime in triumph.

Hope you enjoy it as much as I do! 🙂

Review by Classics Today:

It’s been a very good couple of years for the clarinet repertoire, what with magnificent new concertos written by Lindberg, Rautavaara, and now this one by Kalevi Aho. Intensely lyrical, thematically memorable, and beautifully scored, this piece easily should find a home in concert halls throughout the world. Aho has said that he writes melodically because it is still the best tool for the musician to convey the most expressive information in the smallest space; the truth of his observation is evident in every bar of this evocative concerto. It covers a huge range of moods, from a Tempestoso opening to its emotional core, an Adagio mesto ("sad"), that leads to a Mysterioso conclusion. Along the way there’s plenty of virtuosity, of which Martin Frost takes full advantage.
The Nielsen Concerto, perhaps the greatest work in the medium, also receives an outstanding performance, though I have one small reservation. This is an eruptive, often angry work–I’m thinking of such moments as the cadenza after figure 7, marked "passionato", and in some of the duels between clarinet and snare drum. Frost plays all of these passages with consummate technique, but with such nimbleness and ease of articulation that some of the music’s inherent stridency and combattiveness seems to get lost. This is only obvious in direct comparison to such performances as Olle Schill’s (also on BIS), or perhaps the Drucker/Bernstein (Sony), where the two soloists manage to turn admittedly more effortful performances to more intense expressive effect.
I suspect that for most listeners this won’t be a big deal, and Frost’s musicianship is such that he’s a joy to listen to in any circumstances. There isn’t a minute in either work where you will find your attention wandering, particularly with such sympathetic accompaniments from Vanska and the Lahti Symphony Orchestra, never mind the spectacular sonics in both stereo and SACD surround formats. This is an excellent release, then, irrespective of one’s personal take on the individual merits of various versions of the Nielsen. For the Aho alone, it certainly belongs in the collections of clarinet fans.

Gramophone Review:
I???m not sure what the members of the Danish Quartet, who recorded the Nielsen quartets more than effectively in 1992, think about a ???young??? incarnation appearing 15 years later. But I hope they would doff their caps in admiration, because these new recordings are top-notch, and I???m happy to echo and endorse the enthusiasm they have already generated in Denmark.

The benchmark recording has been that of the Kontra Quartet (BIS 4/92 ??? nla), sympathetic interpretations of works which do not enshrine the absolute finest of Nielsen, for all that he was an orchestral violinist and an experienced and enthusiastic performer of string quartets. But the new Quartet, all in their early twenties, bring a freshness and energy plus a level of sheer accomplishment that I don???t ever remember hearing in these works. Far from defensiveness or special pleading, they simply assume that they are playing high quality music and that their job is therefore to give it their all. The results are joyous, effervescent.

The First Quartet is the most striking beneficiary, since it can too easily sound texturally over-written and structurally effortful, as in the finale???s contrived ???R???sum???. Such reservations are hard to entertain while listening to this thoroughly infectious account. Nielsen asks for energy in the first movement, and that is what the Young Danish Quartet give him, along with large-scale sweep and mellifluous tone throughout. The Fourth Quartet, a tough-minded cousin to the comic opera Maskarade, is interpretatively more challenging, and the Young Danish Quartet may in future find more subtly shaded routes through it; in the meantime their expressive candour and passion are entirely to the good. They are joined in the Quintet by Tim Frederiksen, under whom they studied at the Royal Conservatory in Copenhagen, and without quite transmuting base metal into gold, they display the various facets of what was a breakthrough piece for the young Nielsen to their best advantage.

HAHA yeah I’m just messing with you Lens. I tend to get quite anal about genres in my music because it is one of the major ways I sort stuff on my ZUNE. This one just is more annoying than usual because there is no real alternative to Classical. Still having a completely wrong genre is worse than Soundtracks instead of Soundtrack or something similar.
With regards to Tchaikovsky, i tend to simply rename it to Tchaikovsky on my zune for easier reading. I don’t really care which artist tag you use so long as it is consistent when you upload from that artist. So if you upload tons of Tchaikovsky, at least give each the exact same artist (copy and paste?). I’ll get that other Nielsen up tonight 🙂

Lens of Truth

09-04-2009, 06:34 PM

I find the whole ‘genre’ thing really irritating tbh, and totally useless for organising music. For example, it’s as incorrect (probably more so) to call Bach ‘Classical’ as it is to call Iron Maiden ‘Pop’. It’s soooooo one sided (but this is a cultural thing in general). People are happy to insist on a blanket popular/classical divide, but only by designating ‘classical’ as the ‘other’. There’s all kinds of specificity applied to genres within the realm of popular song (which has been the dominant form of music for over a century), even to the point genres-within-genres, and yet the absurdity is that there is far more complexity and diversity of style of form of technique and of purpose in that homogenous mass which people happily throw into the drawer marked ‘classical’ (forgive the shades of elitism here).

When I’m tagging film music I usually just go for ‘soundtrack’ as the easiest option, but that doesn’t seem quite right either. Then there’s anime, game music etc etc. Ah, the tyrannies of classification! 😉

Looking forward to that Nielsen orchestral set!

Sirusjr

09-04-2009, 06:39 PM

Well perhaps I have less knowledge of classical music and thus a hard time giving the subgenres of classical separate classifications.
I do use the term Soundtrack for movie soundtracks, Game for game soundtracks, Anime for anime soundtracks just because I have so many of each that it makes things easier for me. Similarly I have various tags of Jpop, J-Rock, Metal, Rock, Heavy Metal, Progressive Metal that I arbitrarily apply to things. The important thing is that when I look through my player and feel like something heavy, I can look through Metal, Rock, Heavy Metal, and J-Rock and find most of it there, some of which I may forget I put on my zune. The tags may not always be 100% but at least it gives me some consistency with it all.

Excellent music and performances! Several operatic preludes and such here that I’d not heard before. The ‘Snefrid Suite’ is also a discovery and what a beautiful, gripping suite it is! Due to its subtitle of course, the ‘Rhapsodic Overture’ always makes me cast my mind back to when I visited the Faroe Islands and, funnily enough, there seems to be just the right mix of remoteness and mystery, with the sense of liveliness and hopefulness that I remember about the place. ‘Helios’ is also done very well – a feeling of inevitable ascent that eventually turns into fizzing energy. Lovely post!

For musikera10:

BRAHMS – SYMPHONY NO. 4
Carlos Kleiber, Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra

MP3-V0
http://rapidshare.com/files/276261313/Brahms_4.rar

One of my absolute favourite symphonies. From the sighing theme heard in the first bars (that nevertheless contains an element of horror) – a linkage of thirds in fact that floats along and is eventually whipped-up into a tempestuous development – witness the arching flow of the music, as one supple passage blends into the next. The almost medieval sounding main subject of the slow movement is explored through its modal implications; a crude figural suggestion, if the first movement was akin to the swells of a great ocean, the second would be an ancient twilight forest teaming with latent forces, not too far away from the one in Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. The scherzo (I think it’s the only actual scherzo in a Brahms symphony, as he usually favoured gentler intermezzo-like pieces) totally takes my breath away. It struts around between huge chordal face-offs, but always with a smile on its face (listen to the deliciously tongue-in-cheek use of the triangle!). And finally we have a very succinct Passacaglia, a Baroque form of repeating a base line or harmonic progression and weaving ever more elaborate variations around it. The repeated theme here is supposed to originate in a Bach Cantata, I think, but I’ve never actually managed to track it down.

Anyway, sorry about that unsolicited gush. Hope you enjoy. I’ll get onto Firebird and Tchaikovsky’s Francesca as soon as I’m able.

LOL. Kleiber was a very unique conductor – he only made a small number of recordings, but they’re all gold. You’re bound to have come across one of the many recommendations for his Beethoven 5+7, and his architectural account of Schubert’s ‘Unfinished’ is the one used in Minority Report (although much mauled by the film’s sound mix). This Brahms recording is the first I heard of this symphony and I’ve never really felt the need to hear another. It’s that good. Totally idiomatically in tune with Brahms’ very Classical structures.

STRAVINSKY – THE RITE OF SPRING
Valery Gergiev, Kirov Orchestra

MP3-V0
http://rapidshare.com/files/277539286/Stravinsky_Rite.rar

BBC Music review:

The wait is over: Gergiev’s Rite is out, and it’s as thrilling as anyone could have wished, a riot of rhythms and colours dispatched with a heady mixture of virtuosity and controlled savagery. The recording is astonishing, there’s so much detail and a natural sense of air around everything, yet the intimate intensity of the orchestra pit is never sacrificed for the broader soundstage. The bass drum and timps have real impact in the Ritual of abduction, the earthiness of the double basses in the Spring rounds has to be heard to be believed, the bass clarinet adds a pungent depth to the winds, and the brass are truly brazen, howling at the heart of the ritual.

This is a sacrifice you can feel happening in front of you – Stravinsky’s score throbs with animal life until the very last chord…and that’s the only moment I struggled with Gergiev; he makes us wait a full five seconds for the final chord! Too much for me, but I can’t deny that the tension is held all the way to that last massive hammerblow.

It’s all too easy to go on about The Rite and ignore the coupling, Scriabin’s The Poem of Ecstasy, but that wouldn’t be fair: it’s the kind of luscious performance that might have you salivating over the sheer beauty of the sounds Gergiev coaxes from the Kirov Orchestra. Everyone who still thrills to Stravinsky’s masterpiece should hear this new recording; anyone who thinks The Rite has lost its power through over-familiarity should buy it as a tonic, and feel the adrenaline flow once more.

AussieGuy, I’m glad you requested these – haven’t heard the Prokofiev for a while and it’s reminded me how magical these pieces are. I recommend you listen to the Shostakovich concertos too. These are really excellent performances. I’ve included a sample below of one an absolutely stunning movement to whet your appetite; it’s another Passacaglia (I’m beginning to realise this is one of my favourite forms, but I don’t know why!). Try it 🙂

Oh yes, I’d forgotten the Shostakovich – I grew up with an old LP of my father’s, with David Oistrakh and an orchestra conducted by Shostakovich himself. Magical and superb music. Thank you very much indeed!

Michael Collins. I’m looking a concert with bagpipes. My example is a soudtrack from maestro Goldenthal beacause is the most concertistic composer (Corigliano is the master of Goldenthal).

Hi guys!

I have a request/question for you. I’m a huge fan of Rimsky-Korsakov’s Scheherazade (Op.35) and I’m on a hunt. For reasons I won’t bother getting into, I need to find a few different recordings of it for comparison purposes. My question then is: which recording of the suite is your favourite? If you happen to have it available for downloading too, that would be fabulous.

Thank you very much in advance! 🙂

STRAVINSKY – THE FIREBIRD
(1910 Complete Ballet)

MP3-V0
http://www.rapidspread.com/file.jsp?id=ffqff2ku9q

This is the Columbia Symphony Orchestra conducted by Stravinsky himself. I have the 1945 suite too, which has reduced forces and slightly odd staccato brass at the end, but you can’t go wrong with this one. Cover image of my own design 🙂

The tracks that make up the 1919 suite are the following (I think):
1. Introduction
4. Dance of the Firebird
10. The Princesses’ Round
18. Infernal Dance of Kashchei’s Subjects
19. Lullaby (The Firebird)
22. Kashchei’s Spells are Broken; His Palace Disappears, the Stone Knights Return to Life, Joy Reigns

Obviously there are some slight edits and bars of bridging material between movements in the suite, but there you go. The whole thing is a milestone in dramatic orchestral music. Can you blame Cliff Eidelman for riffing off the amazing grinding basses of the Introduction? And am I imagining it, or does Zimmer try to get away with it too in The Da Vinci Code?

I’ve looked at my classical music collection recently, and noticed I don’t have much vocal works (and I’m a voice major, how pathetic), it’s practically 85% orchestral… haha.

The only complete vocal works I have are:
Mozart’s Le Nozze di Figaro (unknown performers)
Handel’s Hercules (conducted by Gardiner 1983)
Schubert’s Winterreise (sung by Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau)
…that’s it, technically…

I’d really like some help to expand my collection, and knowledge of vocal work. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks! 😀

well, it does, but mostly just excerpts from, and we mostly have orchestral, much less vocal works, and i can’t take them out of the library. I’d bring a laptop but the one I have is prehistoric… and my school requires paper work blah blah, just so i can bring it into school, which kinda discourages me. and there’s no wi-fi… so not a lot of my friends bring their laptops either… so yeah.

Here are the Pettersson symphonies:

Number 7: http://rapidshare.com/files/288806431/symphony_no_7.mp3
Number 11: http://rapidshare.com/files/288806432/symphony_no_11.mp3

Norrkoping Symphony Orchestra cond. Leif Segerstam, BIS CD-580:
http://www.bis.se/index.php?op=album&aID=BIS-CD-580

From rateyourmusic.com:

"The story of Allan Pettersson is almost as compelling his music. He suffered from crippling rheumatoid arthritis that left him hospitalized for extended periods of time on multiple occasions, with little time in between to devote to composition. Still, he managed to complete 16 symphonies before his death in 1980.

Symphony #7 is easily Petersson’s most famous and probably his most approachable as well. It was championed by Antal Dorati in 1968 and made Pettersson an overnight sensation of sorts. The symphony consists of a 46 minute single movement and is highlighted by richly textured lush and delicate string themes, with tempos and dynamics held back.

Symphony #11 is a single movement 24 minute work. It includes some of the lush strings found in symphony #7, but here the strings struggle against the horns and woodwinds. Apparently, the material for this symphony came to Pettersson during an extended hospital stay, which may account for some of the darker colors of this work. After repeated listening, #11 makes more of a lasting impression on me than #7.

Superbly engineered by BIS and lovingly conducted by Leif Segerstam."

Thanks for all the awesome uploads, here’s my humble contribution:
(pw: forgottenmelodies)

Saint-Saens Sonatas for Violin and Piano:

http://rapidshare.com/files/408368504/saint_sonatas.rar.html
The Elegy is the most beautiful violin piano duo i’ve ever heard, try it!

Alkan: Symphony for Solo Piano (Hamelin):

http://rapidshare.com/files/408388251/alkan_symph.rar.html
I could write pages of admiration for this forgotten composer. These are real gems, although the accompanying pieces to the symphony aren’t as important. Just listen to the finale of the Symphony, it’s about 4 minutes long and it completely blew me away the first time i heard it.

Alkan: Les quatre ages (Hamelin):

http://rapidshare.com/files/408385772/alkan_quatre.rar.html
Better as an Alkan introduction, if only it had the Symphony. The Grande Sonate Les quatre ages displays the lifetimes of a man in his 20s, 30s, 40s and 50s, from virtuuos joy to lethargic moan. The Barcarolle shows Alkan is not limited to virtuosity but can also produce simple beauty and The Festin, a usually Alkan-like dark theme with variations proves his diversity.

Also, although it might be inappropriate to post here, i’ve recorded another simple but beautiful piece of Alkan on Youtube, the Nocturne op. 22:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAuB9V-3hFM

More gems coming up!

edit: collected uploads:

Two more gems from me! My listening recommendations are in bold, i hope you’ll love them as much as i do. I never knew baroque could be that involving and Medtner’s melodies are of a haunting quality i’ve hardly known before.

(pw forgottenmelodies)

Tous les matins du monde OST

http://rapidshare.com/files/408374712/matins.rar.html

You don’t need to know the movie to appreciate the music. It’s late Renaissance/early Baroque music (17th century) of the kind you probably haven’t heard before, refined, diverse and even emotionally engaging, all played on the viola da gamba. Just listen to the 2-viola arrangement of le pleurs and judge for yourself.

Medtner: Forgotten Melodies (Marc-Andr??? Hamelin)

http://rapidshare.com/files/293474965/medtner.rar
Hamelin is the knight of salvation for forgotten composers and here he brings Medtner’s melodious, enchanting, harmonically complex works, now ironically titled, to life. I was sad to see that the first movement of the first set had such a beautiful melodic line, only at over 15 minutes too long to be realistically playable for an amateur in many ways, and i was relieved that this motive draws through this whole set, with a very playable 6th movement (that i’m learning now), the canzona, that quite closely imitates the first. The 8th movement, sort of a coda, does much of the same. Also, there are the stylistically refreshing Danzas, just listen to the Danza festiva, a very individual piece.
I just haven’t quite found my love for the second set, Forgotten Melodies II, i think it’s quite complex and difficult to assess and appreciate.

Anyways, this brought me to upload said Sonata in Eb on a CD that also features the Mozart K311 in D and the Beethoven Op.2 No 2 in A Sonatas. The pianist is the young Rafal Blechacz, winner of the International Chopin Competition. His interpretation of the Polonaise Heroique there cought my interest (and admiration).

pw: forgottenmelodies

A collection of Jazz compositions – no improvisations, although Kapustin might sound like it. It’s an amazing feat to compose and correctly notate these pieces, and they’re a unique blend of Jazz idioms in classical forms like Sonatas. Trust me, his Sonata #2 Mvmt 1 will blow you away! The Gulda compositions are a nice addition and certainly in the reach of amateurs, while the Weissenberg and Antheil are a more difficult matter, certainly less accessible.

Thanks for all the awesome uploads, here’s my humble contribution:

Alkan: Symphony for Solo Piano (Hamelin):

http://rapidshare.com/files/290192215/alk_symph.rar
I could write pages of admiration for this forgotten composer. These are real gems, although the accompanying pieces to the symphony aren’t as important. Just listen to the finale of the Symphony, it’s about 4 minutes long and it completely blew me away the first time i heard it.

More gems coming up!

Awesome stuff here. BUMP and a little promoting on my side: "Frederich Nietzsche: Seine Musik" from Taringa. I was gonna upload my disc but I saw somebody already had uploaded one so…http://rapidshare.com/files/149445839/seine_musik.rar.html The pass is nemirfx

Yeah not really classical (if anything is more like romanticism-neoclassical) They are pieces for voice and piano. My favorites are "Heldenklage" (Heroic Lament- Track03) and ""Bechsw???rung" (Conjuration-Track 06). The first, I am told, was written for the "Germany" society by Nietzsche in his early sixteens. The second is the musicalization of a poem by Pushkin by a late Nietzsche. Enjoy.

Sorcerer88 – Can’t wait to listen to these. I’ve wanted to look into Alkan for a while now and you’ve given me the perfect chance. Enjoyed your vid too – entirely appropriate to the thread and a very nice, personal contribution. Lovely piece.

Another Mad Dancer – Who’d have thought Nietzsche would have such a warm melodic sense? Quite Schubertian. These pieces are much better and more charming than I expected – if not as dazzling as his writings 😉

Edit: Some of the pieces you mention don’t appear to be in this volume(II). Do you have the link for the first?

Here’s Nietzsche’s ‘Hymn to Friendship’, his last composition:

VAGN HOLMBOE – REQUIEM FOR NIETZSCHE

http://rapidshare.com/files/291481721/Holmboe_-_Requiem_for_Nietzsche.rar

An avant-garde choral-orchestral work by Denmark’s most highly regarded composer after Nielsen. There are some stunningly realised effects with the choir that remind me in places of The Omen.. but just when you think you’re getting aleatoric improv whispering and so forth, the music reveals itself to be precisely controlled. Also, spot the Wagner quote in the first movement! The text is by Danish poet Thorkild Bjornvig and I wish I had it to peruse; it’s said not to be a biographic account of Nietzsche’s life, but an "imaginative recreation of his struggles".

Wow, fascinating posts! Thank you all.

Edit: Some of the pieces you mention don’t appear to be in this volume(II). Do you have the link for the first?

They are there. The disc had two releases; one in 1997 (the link corresponds to a rip from that version) which has the tracklisting you saw, and a, so to speak, "expanded" reprint in 2000 with the complete track listings(the expanded part wasn’t more music, it was a small hard cover booklet; 114p in Spanish, English and German). This is the cover of the booklet which doubles as the CD case.

Pretty cool huh? It makes for a nice, classy gift. The "correct" or more up-to-date tracklisting is this:

N??? Track German Title – English translation
1.- Da Geht ein bach – A river flows there
2.- Herbstlich sonnige Tage – Sunny Autumn Days
3.- Heldenklage – Heroic Lament
4.- Aus der Jugenzeit – Of youth
5.- Monodie au Deux (Lob der Barmherzigkeit) See note
6.- Beschwor???ng – Pledge
7.- Nachklang einer Silvesternacht – Echoes of a New Year’s Eve
8.- Die junge Fischerin – The young fisherwoman
9.- Das fragment an Sich – The fragment Itself See note 2.
10.- Das Kind an die erloschene Kerze – The Child to a dead Candle
11.- Einleitung – Introduction
12.- Albumlatt – Album Photograph
13.- Gebet an das Leben – Prayer to life
14.- Im Mondschein auf der Puzsta – Moonlight in the Puszta
15.- Wie sich Rebenranken Schwingen – Like a swinging vine
16.- So lach doch mal – Laugh Now

Note: "Monodie au Deux (Lob der Barmherzigkeit)" was written by Nietzsche to be played at the wedding between Olga Herzen (foster daughter of Maldiwa von Meysenbug, Nietzsche’s maternal friend) and French historian Gabriel Monod. It was played two hands at the wedding by Nietzsche and Wagner. Yes, THAT Wagner.
Note 2: The title is actually an untranslatable pun on English; The Fragment Itself is also(in German and Spanish) Fragment on D SUCK THAT ENGLISH!!
Last Note: The pieces with "lyrics" are actually musicallized poems by various authors. You’d be better off googling them than asking me. If you can’t find them, send me a PM and I’ll capture them for you. Regards.

Lens of Truth

10-13-2009, 10:00 AM

Yes, THAT Wagner.

The close friendship and influence between Nietzsche and Wagner is something that I’m endlessly intrigued by, and I think it brings both figures into better focus. Certainly Nietzsche was a very conflicted man, and especially so in his relationship with the great composer. Wagner was the nearest thing to an ‘ubermensch’ that he ever knew – a dominating, full-blooded visionary, a composer of utmost brilliance and force; he went from idolising him to despising him, and made conscious attempts to distance himself, intellectually and emotionally. The common link was the philosophy of Schopenhauer, something they discussed constantly and Wagner bought into wholesale, but again Nietzsche came to reject. It’s one of the greatest cerebral love triangles of all time, and who would be without all the powerful works that surround it?!

Writing about his time at school as a boy, Nietzsche confesses: ‘since my ninth year, music was what attracted me most of all; in that happy state in which one does not yet know the limits of one’s gifts and thinks that all objects of love are attainable…’. I wonder if the imposing, sublime genius of Wagner cast this perspective on his own talent for composition. Apparently, the conductor Toscanini harboured ambitions of becoming a composer until he attended a performance of Tristan and Isolde, and realized he would never be able to match it!

I find it impressive that Nietzsche’s knowledge of music theory was entirely self-acquired, and I do think these miniatures have their appeal. Previous appraisals I’ve seen of his compositions have been rather dismissive, at best describing them as ‘inferior Schumann’. It might be difficult to deny that characterization, but I still enjoy them for what they are. Track 7 (which I think is mistagged on this set, as it claims to be for voice and piano) is my favourite; the others are very pleasant and Germanic, but this one has more passion and more rhythmic involvement; there are still moments when it doesn’t quite work, something awkward in the phrasing, but I find that adds to the effect and the pathos. It’s the longest piece and the most impressionistic.

I’ve read that Nietzsche had plans for a symphony at one point, a rather programmatic one. I wonder if he’d have been up to the job? It’s funny because these days we don’t hold musicians to such lofty standards (to the point that composing is becoming an antiquated idea in itself!), and it seems odd to think of anyone denying themselves the chance and just saying “I’m not good enough, not GREAT enough”.

Thanks for the detailed tracklist and translations! 🙂

Just popping in here to say thanks for this. I know I have been MIA for the last couple months but I suddenly got called into a full-time job and so that’s life. But just checking this disc out now and I gotta say this is effing knocking me out. My previous "killer" Rite was Bernstein’s 1958, but has got the same savagery but with modern sound. Rock.

Whoa – last month I bought tix for Rite at Lincoln Center and I just checked my ticket and it’s this guy. Stoked!

Whoa – last month I bought tix for Rite at Lincoln Center and I just checked my ticket and it’s this guy. Stoked!

Cool! You’ll love it. Gergiev is the real deal: he has a barely visible comb-over with a life of its own and sweats profusely under the weight of his own gravitas. His recording of the Rite of Spring might be some distance from ‘perfect’, with balance issues and a few audible errors, but he really gets to the heart of the piece for me. It’s supposed to be unkempt! I can only imagine a live performance will be even better.

Good to see you back btw. Do give us the full critique after the concert 🙂

10-14-2009, 09:17 AM

I envy you!

Gergiev is a bit hit and miss for me, but with Stravinsky, he’s usually absolutely spot on. I was going to go to his Mahler symphony cycle in London, but finances didn’t permit. In hindsight, I should’ve got a bank loan…

As far as this disc goes, it’s a ravishing Rite.

AND Scriabin’s Poem of Ecstacy! One of my all time favourites.

Mithrandir – Thank you! The Divertimenti are a conspicuous hole in my Mozart collection 🙂

Tango – From what I’ve heard of Gergiev’s Mahler on the LSO Live discs, it wasn’t all that earth-shattering, or worth a bank bust. In particular, the 7th was a massive let down, and I need an upgrade!

ALEXANDER SCRIABIN – PROMETHEUS: THE POEM OF FIRE (1910)
(Valery Gergiev, Kirov Opera Orchestra)

http://www.mediafire.com/?6fnesjoa1rde03y

An interesting fact about this piece is that it includes a part for ‘clavier ??? lumi???res’, a keyboard intrument that projected coloured beams of light corresponding to different tones in the music. It’s rarely if ever performed this way now and, of course, an audio recording couldn’t convey its effect. Worth considering the concept though, and it’s a wonderful invitation to use your imagination!

The painter Kandinsky is said to have had a condition called Synesthesia (which Scriabin may or may not have shared), where he had the intense experience of ‘seeing’ colours when listening to music. A lot of his paintings derive from this association between the senses and he adored Prometheus, writing an appreciation of it in one of his aesthetic manifestos. See what you make of the fluid, ambiguous harmony (much of which is derived from Scriabin’s so-called ‘Mystic chord’) and the rich, perfumed orchestrations. The climax is incredibly powerful, forging its way to a solid, triadic F sharp major. It never fails to take my breath away 🙂

So, if you want to make me happy, listen to at least one of the pieces i recommend, also of the Alkan and Saint-Saens i uploaded earlier:

(pw: forgottenmelodies)

Saint-Saens Sonatas for Violin and Piano:

The Elegy is the most beautiful violin piano duo i’ve ever heard, try it!

Alkan: Les quatre ages (Hamelin):

http://rapidshare.com/files/290192217/alk_quatre.rar
Better as an Alkan introduction, if only it had the Symphony. The Grande Sonate Les quatre ages displays the lifetimes of a man in his 20s, 30s, 40s and 50s, from virtuuos joy to lethargic moan. The Barcarolle shows Alkan is not limited to virtuosity but can also produce simple beauty and The Festin, a usually Alkan-like dark theme with variations proves his diversity.

Also, although it might be inappropriate to post here, i’ve recorded another simple but beautiful piece of Alkan on Youtube, the Nocturne op. 22:

Mithrandir – I’ve been enjoying the Sinfonia concertante from this set and also some of the symphonies. Very engaging performances so far. When I tried Symphony No. 39 I was thrown off a little by the lower pitch of the period instruments (it’s E flat major, but not as we know it!). Thoroughly enjoyable.

Here’s one of my favoutire Mozart piano concertos, in what I feel is an immaculate performance. It’s the conductorless Orpheus Chamber Orchestra with Richard Goode at the piano.

MOZART – PIANO CONCERTO NO. 25
(Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, Richard Goode piano)

http://rowanduk.googlepages.com/MozartGoode25.bmp

MP3-V0
http://rapidshare.com/files/295535731/Mozart_-_Piano_Concerto_25__Goode_.rar

Goode has Mozart’s wit and delicacy down pat and the orchestra play with peerless precision. What I love about the first movement is the joyous, open-hearted chordal statement at the opening and the nonchalant rhythmic interjections (1:35) – for some reason I find them beyond funky. 🙂 The slow movement isn’t a wallow and keeps the light tripping character established in the Allegro maestoso. Listen to the meltingly beautiful, Schubertian passage at 3:40 in the third movement too. Gorgeous.

—————————————————————

Notice:

Following on from Sorcerer’s excellent personal recommendations, I’d like to invite anyone who reads this thread to post some of their favourite works in performances they admire, and perhaps say a few words about them. And it needn’t be the most esoteric thing either. I’m sure we all have a few gems to share 🙂

First, a short Allegro with a very plucky (yet somehow caressing) registration that I can’t get enough of. And second, what I consider to be one of Handel’s "greatest hits" ;), a stunning, muscular passacaglia. The progression itself is so catchy that it brings a big smile to my face to hear it journeying through variations and doing exactly what’s expected of it. There’s one particular variation that gives me goosebumps it’s just so searching and acute in feeling.

Many thanks for the outstanding version of Handel’s Messiah…replaced the one I had. Also, MOZART – PIANO CONCERTO NO. 25 (Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, Richard Goode piano) is fantastic!
Likewise, thank you for the Water Music with Mackerras. It sounds so opulent with a modern orchestra! Here’s my favourite little sequence (on period instruments):

I’m still trying to locate the disc with suites 1-5. I also have another set and if I come across that first I’ll post that one (really, my room’s THAT messy). In the meantime, here are two of my favourite movements from the suite in G minor.

Handel Harpsichord Sampler
(Alan Cuckson)
http://rapidshare.com/files/298566507/Handel_Harpsichord_Sample.rar
MP3-V0 / 12MB

A stunning piece indeed! This reminds me of his Sonata 52 in Eb, the first piece i really loved from Haydn. Yes, shame on me, but i’m a bit opposed by the conservative elements in Haydn and especially Mozart like dozenfold repititions of tonika-dominant or very simple cadenzas, which put me off a bit in the Piano Concerto 25. But i’m not an expert in composition so i must miss much of their genius. Still there are many Mozart pieces i love, like the Sonata for Two Pianos. There is an amazing recording of the first movement on Youtube, and not only for the excellent interpretation, but also for the experimental video editing. It is done by the AndersonRoe piano duo, who are experts at lively two-piano and four-hand arrangements. I can’t recommend their channel highly enough!

By the way, Sirus, have you listened to any of the Medtner or Alkan yet? I’ve put a recording of the Canzona Serenata on Youtube, but i can’t compete with Hamelin – yet 😉 although i don’t completely agree with his interpretation. In any case, i’m still in awe of the Forgotten Melodies I, especially the Danza Festiva:

First off I must say that Tours Les Matins Du Monde is quite relaxing and I like it a lot when I am in the mood for it. I just happened to get a chance to listen to both of these today finally. Same with the Medtner, nice but a bit too slow for my general tastes. Perhaps over time I will grow to enjoy them 😀

HANDEL – HARPSICHORD SUITES
(Paul Nicholson)

MP3-V0
http://rapidshare.com/files/299317354/Handel_-_Harpsichord_Suites_1.rar
http://rapidshare.com/files/299337250/Handel_-_Harpsichord_Suites_2.rar

Overall this is my preferred recording, though I do think Cuckston has something extra in the two pieces posted earlier. Paul Nicholson plays on a much richer, more mellow-toned instrument that’s easier to listen to for sustained periods. His performance style is a little ‘neater’, but also more varied, and has a great feel for the dance character of the music. The six fugues that close the set are described in the liner notes rather obliquely (but aptly) as "splendid examples of eighteenth century rational craftsmanship which never fail to recognise that experience may sometimes be perilous".

Yes, shame on me, but i’m a bit opposed by the conservative elements in Haydn and especially Mozart like dozenfold repititions of tonika-dominant or very simple cadenzas, which put me off a bit in the Piano Concerto 25. But i’m not an expert in composition so i must miss much of their genius.

I actually can’t get enough of the tonic/dominant grandstanding that goes on in Mozart, Haydn and Beethoven. It’s a part of the pomp of Classicism, but also can sound joyous and elemental. I perfectly understand when people say they don’t like Mozart because he’s too ‘safe’. Personally, I love everything about the Classical style – its openness, its elegance, its structure, its contrast and emphasis. After all (I’m paraphrasing Charles Rosen here a bit) it may the only time in history that a truly popular style has achieved such a degree of mastery, of craftsmanship, expressive variety and complexity. The formulaic elements are deceptive and serve to conceal the complexity. Humour is also essential to the big three, especially Haydn, and again, the perfect proportions of the music are able to encompass a level of eccentricity that I think no other composer matched. The first movement of Haydn’s Symphony No.97 in C totally takes the piss out of the tonic-dominant clich??? – it’s a parody of itself, but it’s also brilliant, life-affirming, energetic.

The humorous side of Beethoven is particularly overlooked I feel; the ABSURD never-ending coda of the 5th’s finale; the whole of the 8th, sublimely tongue-in-cheek (almost, in a very intentional way, camp); the crazy syncopations in the Leonore Overture (and pretty much everywhere else).. I could go on.

The other thing about Beethoven is that he expanded Classicism, or rather fulfilled its potential, for ultimately embodying struggle. The sense of struggle is all the more acute for the fact that it exists within an arch-Classical style. Hence why Beethoven is regarded as the archetypal creator-artist, alongside the likes of Michelangelo.

Anyway, I’m rambling..

Still there are many Mozart pieces i love, like the Sonata for Two Pianos. There is an amazing recording of the first movement on Youtube, and not only for the excellent interpretation, but also for the experimental video editing. It is done by the AndersonRoe piano duo, who are experts at lively two-piano and four-hand arrangements. I can’t recommend their channel highly enough!

I caught the Proms performance of this on tv a few weeks ago. I think I like this one even better!

Thanks for the sonatas disc!

10-29-2009, 05:14 PM

Same with the Medtner, nice but a bit too slow for my general tastes. You must have listened to the first piece, the sonata, which is indeed quite long and a bit slow. I’m sure you’d think differently of the No 3 Danza Festiva!

Looking forward to try the Harpsichord Suites.

GROF??? – GRAND CANYON SUITE

MP3-V0
http://rapidshare.com/files/301568774/Grand_Canyon_Suite.rar

I said I’d post this ages ago and then forgot. So here it is. Beautiful, sumptuously orchestrated (Grof??? was also responsible for the orchestral arrangements of Rhapsody in Blue that we’re all familiar with), descriptive and teeming with melodies inspired by folk music, dance and jazz and, ocassionally, American Indian motifs. My favourite might be the Niagara Falls Suite, which has some incredibly powerful, almost surreal passages, but also plenty of lyricism. Each one feels like a journey in itself. Enjoy!

Mein G???tt! What an astounding, surreal vision this E-Oasis appears to be! Oh what one might stumble upon while looking for the obscure classical fix one’s soul craves!

I hope I may be able to join in here. I have a modest collection of interesting works of classical [and lots of obscure rock music that is borderline-classical]. My tastes tend to veer opposite to popular tastes [example: I love Sch???nberg, dislike most Tchaikovsky]. I also happen to have access to the wonderful classical library of USC.

Anyway, before some requests, I must say an emphatic thank you to Lens of Truth for Holmboe’s Requiem for Nietzsche, which I have been searching for, for a while now and which is how I found this magical thread, so thank you exceedingly much!

Requests:

Henry Cowell – Symphony #11
Hindemith – Quartet for Clarinet, Violin, Cello and Piano [really, really hoping to find this]
Hindemith – [any concertos; violin; horn; piano; organ; concert band]
Lucas Foss – Baroque Variations
Faure – Piano Quintet #2
Corigliano – Ghosts of Versailles
Busoni – Violin Concerto
Busoni – Clarinet Concerto
Franciax – Clarinet Concerto
DallaPiccola – Ulisse
Wuorinen – Percussion Symphony
Rorem – Poems of Love and the Rain
Alison Cameron: Gibbous Moon; A Blank Sheet of Metal
Xenakis – Oresteia
Stravinsky – Threni

Nearly anything by Luigi Nono, Luciano Berio [especially the operas], David Maslanka, Sophia Gubaidulina, Talivaldis Kenins, or Ivan Tcherpnin would be amazing as well.

I do apologize if this is "too much", I’m not expecting all of it, but better to ask then never know right? =)

As I said, I have at least a decent collection of music from all periods, and will try to fulfill any requests if possible. I think I have a lot of stuff that people wouldn’t think to ask for, but may enjoy very much though, so I’ll open with some of the things I have on mediafire already:

Vaughan Williams – Job:

Bartok – The Wooden Prince:

Borodin – Prince Igor:

I saw this reposted by arthhier (originally posted by streichorchester) back in June, but the link was dead.

Were these three part of that set in their entirety or just in part? If they were only there in part, does anyone have a full version of these beauties? You would make me very happy. I love Vaughan Williams, and I played part of Job once and LOVED it, but never got a recording. I’ve only ever had a "Selections from Prince Igor" , and I’ve never heard the Wooden Prince, but I adore Bartok.

Lens of Truth

Would you like just anything?

I have Glass complete string quartets [the last three as the best things he ever wrote in my opinion], some piano music of his [with Cage], his Orion Suite from the Olympics, Music With Changing Parts, his documentary music, and The Witches of Venice [a very fun, and interesting play of sorts].

By Adams I have Gnarly Buttons with John’s Book of Alleged Dances, Nixon in China, and Harmonliehre.

Here is a link to an already uploaded Harmonleihre [same as mine]:
http://avaxhome.ws/music/classical/John_Adams_Harmonielehre.html

There’s a lot of Adams and Glass on that site [Avaxhome.ws] btw.

For example, this page has most of Glass’ works I think:

I highly recommend the String Quartets.

Moses und Aaron is probably one of the greatest operas of all times. I still remember my first listen — absolutely spine tingling.

Powder Her Face is also one of the best works of the last twenty years. The content is also tastefully spicy in ways that many operas are not [probably because the language is somewhat modern, so it is just more directly apparent to us modern listeners].

If you are intereasted in modern stuff, let me know what or who you are interested in. For starters, I have plenty of Sch???nberg, Webern, and Berg, and also a good bit of Boulez. I also have Varese’s works, which are an excellent starting point for music concrete.

Another guy to look out for is Mauricio Kagel. I have some of his stuff, which is pretty "light", but quite interesting [he took over Darmstadt after Stockhausen left], but it’s not easy to come by it seems.

RE Threni: worst comes to worst, perhaps someone will give it me for Christmas 😉

Look forward to future explorations =)

And a few movie/documentary scores, of which I recommend the qatsi trilogy, Mishima, Kundun, the Hours and Dracula (a musical score for the original film with Bela Lugosi).

No, sorry. I don’t have any of Britten’s Operas, not even Peter Grimes (in its entirety, that is.) I’m more an orchestral/ballet/oratorio person with very specific operatic tastes:

Prokofiev – Love for Three Oranges
Shostakoivch – Lady Macbeth of Mstensk
Vaughan Williams – The Pilgrim’s Progress
Wagner – Der Ring des Nibelungen
Poulenc – Les Dialogues des Carmelites

I have some others, but those are my favourites.

I noticed you said you had this…I have heard bits and pieces of Love for Three Oranges but never the whole thing and I haven’t seen you post it yet. Is there any way you could upload it, please?

Lastly, have you heard of Scelsi? He is a very interesting composer, very unique, apparently not following any specific tradition, who has recently come to light, and who I find absolutely wonderful. His piano work, just for starters, is unlike anything else I’ve ever heard.
It’s funny you should mention Scelsi – he’s been top of my ‘must get to know more’ list since I heard his fourth string quartet – a piercingly serious piece, horrific even, but beautiful beyond words. You get the sense of a true artist, a visionary, pushing you toward a strange place and expanding your awareness, not just manipulating sounds cleverly and showing off.

I’m extremely curious about his piano works – hardly know what to expect!

Maslanka, David

http://rapidshare.com/files/306237346/Maslanka__Garden_of_Dreams.rar

A Child’s Garden of Dreams
I. There is a desert on the moon where the dreamer sinks so deeply into the ground that she reaches hell

II. A drunken woman falls into the water and comes out renewed and sober

III. A horde of small animals frightens the dreamer. The animals increase to a tremendous size, and one of them devours the little girl.

IV. A drop of water is seen as it appears when looked at through a microscope. The girl sees that the drop is full of tree branches. This portrays the origin of the world.

V. An ascent into heaven, where pagan dances are being celebrated; and a descent into hell, where angels are doing good deeds.

Maslanka took the idea for this work from Jung’s Man and His Symbols, in particular some of a girl patient’s dreams which seemed to prefigure her death.

This one is from the Dallas Wind Ensemble with around V0 VBR ( I didn’t know amazon did VBR, but I was listening to this and sure enough, the bitrate was jumping around all over the place)

11-15-2009, 06:16 PM

Same story here.

This is a piece for Wind Band by David Maslanka. I don’t know if any of you are familiar with his work, but I figured some of you might enjoy this one. The performance was done last year by the University of Utah, so forgive any errors, but focus on the music (For example, the horn and euphonium line after the tempo change in the first movement loses a few of the attacks on the A and just holds, instead of how the euphonium later plays it in solo form in the same movement) I’ve included a picture of the composer for those who want album art for ipods and whatnot, as this is not an official release.

There are three movements, each very interesting. The piece is about 50 minutes in length, and I find each minute completely captivating. The piece could be described as haunting, pensive, mournful, maybe even tormented, but definitely joyful in the third movement.

At any rate, I hope you enjoy David Maslanka’s Symphony no. 8.

Prokofiev – Complete Piano Music Vol. 1 [Flac]

http://rapidshare.com/files/308460238/prok_comp_1.rar

pw: forgottenmelodies (as always)

Of course the original orchestra arrangement would be interesting..
and on a whole, this CD probably isn’t the best Prokofiev collection. Some of the Romeo & Juliet transcriptions might be appealing, but i.e. the famous Montagues and Capulets just doesn’t seem convincing on the piano as it lacks the texture, sense of menace and richness of the orchestration.

Glass-wise, i have some of his solo piano stuff, mainly the Metamorphoses, from an unidentified recording:
http://rapidshare.com/files/308477945/glasssolop.rar

To me on casual listening his music seems minimalistic, Tiersen-like, although he distances himself from that description, labeling it "music with repetitive structures" (see wikipedia). I’m not sure how to assess it, to see beyond the simple repetitions, so i’m curious, what do you see in it?

Yeah, that’s "Montagues and Capulets" or "Dance of the Knights" depending on which version you’re working with. That should be in every version of Prokofiev’s Romeo and Juliet that you find as it’s probably the most popular composition of the entire ballet. You can find it in this thread:

Also it’s the first Stromberg non-film recording I’ve heard, I didn’t know he did straight repertoire as well.

Schnittke – thanks for the Scelsi. I believe the string quartets linked in that text file are the ones I’ve sampled already. There’s a very particular recording of No. 4 that blows the one here out of the water – it’s the difference between it sounding like an interesting piece and one that’s overwhelmingly powerful. Being based around one note, like the Quattro Pezzi, the subtle variations and convictions of the performance are vital. I’m going to buy it myself and will post in the future 🙂

Thank you very much for the Freeman Etudes. Tomorrow I plan to check out the score at my music library and follow along. My friend and I listened to the whole book today, and found it riveting. =)

One day I hope to hear the Arditti performance as well…although I am not sure how different a performance would be?

Cage really had a lot of different avenues. It’s amazing that so many people disregard him musically…perhaps he was more interesting philosophically, but he still made fascinating music.

Really appreciative of these…and sorry for the late thank you, I thought I had posted one earlier.

I highly recommend the EMI 20th Century Masterpieces – 100 Years of Classical music 16 cd set. Pretty sure that’s on avax. It’s pretty short on the avant-garde people tho. No Cage, Stockhausen, Berio, Kagel, Nono, not even Xenakis! But for "repertoire" people in the 20th C it’s very good.

Personally, I still stand by Bernard Herrmann as the greatest 20th C composer. I’ll put Vertigo, Psycho or Fahrenheit 451 up against anything by Stravinsky, Shostakovich or Prokofiev. Debussy gives Benny a good run, tho, since to me Prelude..Faun exploded so many elements of traditional harmony/form in music (IMHO of course!). I love and respect Igor and the rest but their styles evolved from classical/nationalistic traditions, whereas Herrmann’s concepts come from a much more unique place…possibly Venus or Alpha Centauri…the only problem is that because of the practical nature of film music the themes are not allowed to develop in the way concert music can. There’s a Herrmann thread on here somewhere…:)

Thanks for the suggestion, but that appears to be a highly biased and poor collection, even if it does capture a few good pieces. I already have the sum of the works included anyway [and far, far more works of even greater magnitude].

As for Hermann…guess I’ll have to give it a try…hard to imagine anyone being on the level of Sch???nberg, Mahler, Shosty, etc..guys I rank with Beethoven very easily.

"avant-garde" actually describes the most recent musical developments, innovations and experiments, it doesn’t refer to quality and Beethoven certainly doesn’t belong to it (anymore). See Wikipedia.

Lens of Truth

11-23-2009, 09:36 AM

anyone know of any great composers of the 21st Century?
Do you know anything by Unsuk Chin? She’s a disarmingly modest character, but one of the most formidable contemporary composers I’ve encountered. What I love about her music (and what was sadly missing from her recent Cello Concerto) is the fantasy – the incredible, glittering colours almost tell a story.

As previously posted:

UNSUK CHIN – VIOLIN CONCERTO
BBC Philharmonic conducted by James MacMillan
Hae-Sun Kung, Violin

MP3-V0
http://forums.ffshrine.org/showpost.php?p=1266770&postcount=445

Also a piece that keeps growing in my estimation every time I hear it:

GEORGE BENJAMIN – SUDDEN TIME
BBC Symphony Orchestra conducted by the composer

MP3-V0
http://rapidshare.com/files/310946804/George_Benjamin_-_Sudden_Time.mp3

Ok, so this was premiered in the 90s (and begun in the 80s), but Benjamin is very much a contemporary voice. As the title suggests, the piece explores the idea of time and time perception – how it can seem rapid, suspended, distorted, and even completely upended. It begins with a prelude of sorts in which you’ll hear pulse-like figures overlapping (like ticking clocks). At 4:20ish the main body of the work begins to take shape; the simple main idea, a few short intervals in the horns, rises out of a long held dead chord, surrounded by a curling mist of violin harmonics. All the subsequent music is developed from that motif. Listen for example to the gorgeous passage for harp and cor anglais at 6:13 which grows ever more complex. The different lines of the music overlap and coalesce in a very fluid manner, and the colouristic combinations are often surprising. The orchestral palette includes 4 alto flutes, 2 recorders, a muted piano and a several mini-tablas that accompany the violin solo at the end.

In the words of the composer:

The title is a quotation from a Wallace Stevens poem, A Martial Cadenza, ‘It was like sudden time in a world without time’. Some of the concepts behind this piece can be illustrated by a dream I once had in which the sound of a thunderclap seemed to stretch to at least a minute’s duration before suddenly circulating, as if in a spiral, through my head. I then woke, and realised that I was in fact experiencing merely the first second of a real thunderclap. I had perceived it in dreamtime, in between and in real time.

Although this is but analogy, a sense of elasticity, of things stretching, warping and coming back together, is something that I have tried to capture in this piece.

Herrmann is something special. I don’t think I could place him above Stravinsky or Debussy, but he’s definitely in the short list of true Greats. Unfortunately, most people I know who take classical music seriously think film scores are the lowest of the low, and it’ll be a while yet before it’s taken seriously as an artform (Zimmer and chums aren’t doing us any favours!). Thank goodness though for film as a medium and the chance it has afforded so many fantastic composers to both experiment and write bold, predominantly tonal music. Where would orchestral music in the later half of the 20thC be without Herrmann, Goldsmith, North, Rozsa etc? Where would I be?? I shudder to think.

Other composers of last century that I adore – Bartok, Sibelius, Vaughan Williams, Messian, Ligeti…

I should mention, I don’t buy into the use of the term "avant-garde". If it exists, then Beethoven is surely among it’s most radical members, and, of course, Wagner, and Debussy. It’s hard to tell what avant-garde even really means though.
‘Avant-garde’ is one of those sticky terms that’s become almost meaningless in current usage. I don’t think it can really escape it’s 19th century ‘revolutionary’ connotation, and as such seems a little absurd to use in a contemporary context. The avant-garde in all its guises was assimilated into the establishment long ago. Dissonance has become the ‘proper’ mode of expression – obvious tonalism and (heaven forbid) diatonicism is considered ‘vulgar’.

So, to lower the tone once again 😉 here’s a piece I promised to post a few months back. Dooj, I think you might enjoy this one – not un-Herrmann-like in parts 🙂

RESPIGHI – SINFONIA DRAMMATICA

MP3-V0
http://uploadmirrors.com/download/NBIVBME8/Respighi – Sinfonia Drammatica.rar

From the review on classicstoday:

… one of those decadent, late Romantic effusions that’s gorgeously orchestrated (lots of organ pedals for extra emphasis), lush, bombastic, overlong, excessive–in a word, marvelous!

jakob

11-23-2009, 03:43 PM

Thanks for the Respighi! He’s one of those that I just gobble up.

I’m going to check out the Unsuk Chin as well, I remember hearing good things about it, but haven’t ever actually heard the work itself. Thanks again.

dooj17

11-23-2009, 04:16 PM

Thanks for the Respighi Lens, I think I’ve got that one, but not by that conductor, so I’ll check it out! I’m totally with you on your choices for 20th C composers. You forgot Arnold Bax tho (just kidding- I know you’re a Bax fan :)).

Schnittke, no strong argument really about your opinion of the EMI box, but in its defense I can’t think of any other single compilation of the 20th C that beats it for breadth and quality of performances. I do wish it included the people I listed before as well as Ligeti, Radulescu, more than 1 minimalist (Adams), Gubaidulina, Zorn, Feldman, Dun…etc (throw in Herrmann, Morricone and Ifukube too). Some odd choices in the later period as well – Maw? What about Maxwell-Davies? Zimmerman? Davidovsky, Wourinen, Foss, Amacher, Lachenman…? But anyways if you want the du Pre Elgar Cello Concerto with Bernstein’s West Side Story with Das Lied von der Erde conducted by Klemperer this is the best all-in-one set IMHO.

When I said "avant-garde" I guess in terms of the music industry it’s what doesn’t sell and what no one plays ;).

(just kidding. oh wait, actually I’m not 🙁 )

Here’s a request : Eduard Tubin’s 1st and 2nd Symphonies? I heard they were as exciting as Shostokovich’s…thx in advance!

11-27-2009, 01:08 AM

Good evening. I would like to present tonight’s contribution by declaring that I’m a big fan of Requiems. Not just Mozart’s but any Requiem; they have that feeling of a gigantic completion; or of a desperate struggle against death. Or of the grandeur of God’s gate. In Paradisum. They sound so alien and, at the same time, absolutely human. Magnificent yet never vain. But I rant.

From obscure (even thought Popeye signature theme is a carbon copy of his Light Cavalry overture, probably without paying any royalties(and they call us thieves!)) XIX century Austrian composer Franz Von Supp???; his Requiem. An even more obscure work that his operas; it was composed for theater director Franz Pokorny. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do.

Does anyone have Mozart’s Piano Concertos by Gardiner / Bilson / English Baroque Soloists?

Lens of Truth

11-30-2009, 11:40 AM

Does anyone have Mozart’s Piano Concertos by Gardiner / Bilson / English Baroque Soloists?

I found No. 20 in .ape a while ago. Here’s a fresh V-0 encode:

MOZART – PIANO CONCERTO NO. 20
Malcolm Bilson fortepiano
Sir John Eliot Gardiner, English Baroque Soloists
http://uploadmirrors.com/download/1R1OHWPM/Mozart20GardinerBilson.rar

That’s all I have to offer, but I’d also be keen to hear more, especially the early concertos, which I’ve had my eye on for some time, and the late C minor.

I really like this performance – the detail and incisiveness in the orchestra is fantastic, even if it sits slightly oddly with the delicate sound of the fortepiano. My only complaints would be that the declamatory solo moments in the final movement (eg the opening) sound too ‘pretty’, and Bilson is somewhat swamped in the stormy central section of the Romanze. Overall though it’s superb. Invigorating and immaculately played. You’ve reminded me I should splash out on the box. 🙂

Schnittke

11-30-2009, 11:54 AM

"You’ve reminded me I should splash out on the box."

If you are planning to, please let me know…as I will remove it from my Christmas list. 😉

It would be quite a job to upload the whole set, so I’d keep it on your Christmas list if I were you 😉 I’m too old to be writing lists anymore, and even if I did request a particular recording from my family they’d blank-out and get a ‘Most Relaxing Classical Album in the World You’ll Never Need’. And I’m not buying goodies for myself till the new year.

By the by, what put you on to the Gardiner set? Are you specifically after period instruments?

I think I’ve found Threni..

Many thanks. Can’t wait to listen! The only works by Busoni I know are his piano transcriptions and concerto (thanks to Sirusjr), and that needs to be rectified. I’ll keep my eyes peeled.

Schnittke

11-30-2009, 12:55 PM

Do you happen to have Debussy’s The Martyrdom of Saint Sebastian?

"By the by, what put you on to the Gardiner set? Are you specifically after period instruments?"

Three things: First, the music historian/critic I follow most recommends that set as the definitive set of Mozart Piano Concerti; 2. Yes, I’m very interested in period instruments; 3. I really like Gardiner as a conductor, and for me, Mozart needs some revving up.

So much else is on the list though…sadly I like very rare things…who knows if anything will actually come of the list…I am always making lists anyway…my "most wanted" list = Christmas List at this time of year…currently consisting of the following:

Roussel- Padmavati
Wolpe – Yigdal
Busoni – violin con.
Mozart piano concerti gardiner
Rochberg – sym 2; phaedra
Rorem – Poems of love and the rain
DallaPiccola – Ulisse
Xenakis – Oresteia
cowell – sym 11
Berio – Un Re in Ascolto
Henze – boulevard solitude
Wuorinen – time’s encomium
Hindemith – quartet for cl/vl/ce/pi

I would love to get Wuorinen’s Whore of Babylon…but alas, it seems impossible to find =(

Most of these are pretty difficult to track down anyway…I’m be happy with any one of them I imagine.

So, you might want to save yourself some effort. I was planning to cross-post it to the orchestral thread as well, as calling it classical music might be pushing a point here for some… And I think it has the ability to appeal to people beyond those who may be floating around in this thread.

I’m planning to upload the video edition as well. 🙂

I only knew Friedrich Gulda from a rather dry recording of the Well-Tempered Clavier, but wow, LOVE the Prelude and Fugue! – Sadly not within reach of this amateur!! Loads of great stuff here.

Discs 3 + 4 of the guitar set have many pieces that are new to me. I’m listening to the Giuliani concerti now and they’re fabulous; fresh, sunny and pleasingly melodic, right up my street! The performances all round are superb.

Thanks again guys 🙂

VAUGHAN WILLIAMS – FLOS CAMPI

MP3-V0
http://www.multiupload.com/BH71NUVZSF

A gorgeous, free-flowing fantasia, inspired by the Song of Solomon, and hence simmering with mystic, langourous eroticism. The ensemble consists of a small chamber-like orchestra (one of everything, plus a modest string section), solo viola and a wordless choir.

jakob

01-12-2010, 04:49 PM

You’ve just made me very happy, Lens. Thanks for Flos Campi! It seems I just have a flood of new music to try, but this goes in at the top of the list with scott of the antarctic.

*edit* I listened to Flos Campi today, and I absolutely loved it!! It’s a very interesting mixture of Vaughan Williams styles. Parts of it sound like The Lark Ascending, and there is a very obvious quote of (or inspiration for? I’m not sure which came first) the theme in the beginning of the Finale of the London (2nd) symphony. There are blissful, peaceful sections, wonderful brooding moments, and even some of the typical rhythmic stuff that I think of as the "Vaughan Williams Machine" style. The use of the choir reminded me of my favorite bits of his 7th symphony that used voice also. I was in complete awe for the first fifteen minutes until someone in the office came in hearing range and said "What are you listening to?!" with a good bit of distaste in their voice. I had to listen to the last few minutes later, but it was GREAT. I love hearing things I haven’t ever listened to from my favorite composers 🙂 🙂 Thanks again!

Bit of a treat for you folks today – more information coming up soon (and a shameless crosspost in the Orchestral thread) but briefly…

Here is a video of Paul McCartney’s most recent classical work Ecce Cor Meum, from its original concert performance from the Royal Albert Hall on November 4th 2006.

The Academy of St Martin In The Fields
conducted by Gavin Greenaway
Kate Royal (soprano)

with

The Choir of Magdalen College Oxford
King’s College, Cambridge
The London Voices

Paul McCartney: Ecce Cor Meum (VIDEO) – 393mb

LAME 3.98.2 -V0

http://uploadmirrors.com/download/YDB1NRVO/PM-ECMLIVE.rar

Note that the audio isn’t from the CD release – it’s the sound track from the video, which as far as I know hasn’t been released separately.

A note on the source: This recording was made from a British television broadcast of the piece, made in 2009 on the channel Sky Arts 2. Quality is very good but isn’t quite DVD standard. If you want DVD quality that badly, go buy it… To be honest I didn’t like the piece enough to actually fork out for the DVD, although I did find it worth hearing.

Have fun. 🙂

The world is full of surprises it seems: I never knew that McCartney was a composer as well as one hell of a musician. Guess it just shows the one basic truth: we are always ignorant of something, and always need to be willing to learn. 🙂

Verdict after I listen.

I was in complete awe for the first fifteen minutes until someone in the office came in hearing range and said "What are you listening to?!" with a good bit of distaste in their voice.
Good work mate! Here’s to offending co-workers with the sublimity of Vaughan Williams! 😀 You guys are very welcome btw, and if there any other RVW I can help you with just sing out.

..I would have never dreamed that McCartney would write something so classical. Thanks so much.
Well, I believe it was upholstered to some degree (the official credit is orchestrated an produced) by John Fraser; as was the Liverpool Oratorio before it by Carl Davis. I’m surprised Tango didn’t include this info 😉

I look for the following Works of Donizetti:..
I’m afraid I don’t know the first thing about Donizetti. But I have a friend who does. I’ll see if I can borrow some 🙂

Anyone got any harpsichord albums? No rapidshare please. IF not thats ok.
There’s some Handel earlier in the thread if you check back a bit. With any luck I’ll have time to put up some Bach and Rameau soon.

Anybody want to share some Schubert lieder?
I posted a Schubert Lieder collection in this thread (Thread 71508). It’s MU unfortunately, but the link is still active. I thought to be on the safe side I’d direct you indirectly, in case they catch-on and take it down. 😉
The only other stuff I can offer are the obvious choices like Fischer-Dieskau and Bostridge..

Does anyone have any Menuhin or Richter recordings? I’m trying to get a friend of mine to listen to classical music but he’s weird in that he thinks only music performed by known virtuosos is worthy…
Also, on an unrelated note, does anyone have Tchaikovsky’s Eugene Onegin?
It’s time to put your friend right! Only someone who doesn’t like classical music would have that sort of attitude (in which case, you’re really limiting yourself in terms of who’s ‘known’). Play him something form this thread to win him over! 😉
Nevertheless I’ll keep an eye out.

J. Brahms – Symphony 3
John Eliot Gardiner – Orchestre Revolutionnaire et Romantique – The Monteverdi Choir

Shameless crosspost from the Orchestral thread; since this is a piece of classical music by a composer better known for film, it belongs in both threads…

OK, Wengenmayr #2 will have to wait! Months and months ago (around the time Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood’s first OST was released) I promised this and it entirely slipped my mind. Here is one for fans of Akira Senju, who doesn’t just write music film and television – he’s equally at home in the concert hall, as this magnificent symphony for soprano, tenor, and orchestra, proves:

AKIRA SENJU
Symphony Of Psalms – The Tale Of Genji (Shihen Kokyokyoku Genji Monogatari)
Takashi Matsumoto (lyricist)
Sara Kobayashi (soprano)
Kunpei Matsumoto (tenor)
The Kyoto Symphony Orchestra (leader: Naohisa Miyama)
Naoto Ohtomo (conductor)

http://uploadmirrors.com/download/1P5AU8HK/AS-TTOG.rar

MY RIP – LAME 3.98 -V0 – Sorry, no scans – my scanner is banjaxed. All the salient information from the booklet is here. Very little of it is in English, at any rate.

This symphony is a sensitive adaptation of Murasaki Shikibu’s insanely well known 11th century masterpiece "Genji Monogatari". It’s been translated into just about every language known to humankind, it’s been several films, an anime, and even an opera by Miki Minoru in 1999. Here, Akira Senju takes a shot at this venerable tale and what a shot it is.

I have a treat for you all. I know that I for one was not familiar with the work of Ernest John Moeran until very recently, but his music is so lively, rich, and infused with the folk music of his Irish roots that I’ve come to absolutely adore his work. I’m hoping to introduce some of you to him as well, through the same pieces that made me love him ??? his string quartet and trio:

Composer: Moeran, Ernest John
Ensemble: Maggini Quartet
Recording: 1997

String Quartet in E flat major
1. I. Allegro moderato ma ben animato 00:08:20
2. II. Lento. Vivace. Allegretto. Andante. Allegro vivace 00:09:31

String Quartet in A minor
3. I. Allegro. Lento. Tempo primo 00:08:16
4. II. Andante con moto 00:05:28
5. III. Rondo: Allegro vivace 00:06:38

String Trio in G major
6. I. Allegretto giovale 00:07:41
7. II. Adagio 00:05:10
8. III. Molto vivace: Lento sostenuto 00:03:12
9. IV. Andante grazioso: Presto 00:05:04

GAVRILL MOTHERFUCKING POPOV

http://rapidshare.com/files/359162923/popov.rar

A little history:

Gavrill Popov was a ninja from the far east who often dabbled in composing. He conceived of this symphony during the physical act of love, then wrote it by carving the notes into the Berlin Wall (which later crumbled.) After it was first performed Stalin banned this symphony from ever being played again, so one night as Stalin slept, Popov broke into his bedroom and banned him from ever breathing again. The symphony later went on to become the national anthem for the whole universe.

Also included is an early peace by some dude named Shostakovich.

hello, I would greatly appreciately if anybody can upload a sample of the work sang by the soprano, Inva Mula. She had a real awesome voice when she sang for the Fifth Element, but I wanted to hear her in the classical music setting. Thank you in advance!

I’ve read that Ilan Eshkeri used a lot of classical music in his score for "The Young Victoria". One of the tracks (08 – Lord Melbourne) sounds quite familiar to me and I wonder if he created it himself or used some classical music. If you know what it is or classical music that sounds similiar, please let me know. Thanks in advance.

It just so happened, in a discussion of The Last Airbender, someone said "well I can’t enjoy this as much because I’ve been listening to Sibelius lately" and of course I thought "hmm I haven’t heard any Sibelius" so the best thing to do was go find some and listen! And what a fantastic listen this is!

I have to admit, despite all the praise given for Shostakovich, I find most of his music terribly difficult to enjoy because it is so complex it lacks the simple melodies I enjoy and the music doesn’t really grab me (at least not yet). But this is an instantly beautiful set of music that everyone should check out even if you think you won’t like Classical if you enjoy the orchestral pieces posted here.

Hi !
Thanks a lot for the link! I’m fairly new to classical music. Can you guys give me some advice, what works I definitely should have listened to? Advice like: "You have to listen to the Symphonies by Beethoven, the Preludes by Debussy and Schubert’s Winterreise!" 🙂

I’d say prokofiev symphonies are a must because they are pretty accessible.

MCQ

Do you have a few examples of things you have heard and liked? That makes it alot easier to recommend stuff.

The Symphonies of Beethoven, the preludes of Debussy and Schubert’s Winterreise are examples of works I enjoy. Other examples are Carmina Burana, Glassworks (Philip Glass), the piano works of Chopin and Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring.
So for example, what are the best works (to listen to for a start, or simply because of their ingenuity) of Vivaldi, Bach, Haendel, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Schumann, Chopin, Debussy, Bruckner, Mahler, Schoenberg, Prokoviev, Bartok, Stravinsky and other great composers I didn’t mention ? 🙂

You might find Berlioz’s Symphonie Fantasique to be to your liking, But if you enjoy big Pieces Mahler 8th and 2nd, as well as Schoenberg Gurre-Lieder, Which is for Massive Choir And Orchestra, and one of my favorite Symphonies Of all time Tchaikovsky 4th
(If you want any let me know and I will upload them, I am kinda of a crazy Recording Nazi, so i tend to always Get the best recordings, so what your getting is gonna be as close to perfect as can be)

Its an amazing Work, and I just discovered it a couple of weeks ago, Hope you Enjoy it

Despite all the hype surrounding many modern composers, I have found some to be far too much for me to digest (shostakovich and stravinsky in particular) while enjoying the works of others (Prokofiev, Sibelius, Rimsky-Korsakov, etc) so I found this box set [which I will post more from later] and wasn’t sure what to expect.

My first reaction to the piano concerto was that it was something different than I usually listen to but despite that, I was entranced and intrigued by the emotions it created within me. I kept listening and found the entirety of the first two discs of this set to be powerful while at the same time deeply sad and tragic.

I hope you will listen to this and see for yourself if it brings you the same feelings. I am listening to the rest of the discs before posting them and may even buy this set if they are as powerful as the first two. I also want to bring special attention to the final piece from disc 2, Cantata Misericordium, which is a powerfully moving choral piece.

streichorchester

07-03-2010, 06:48 PM

How is Shostakovich hard to digest? Stravinsky I can understand, but so many of Shostakovich’s symphonies are accessible that by the time you reach No. 12 you’re sure you’ve heard it before. Maybe that’s why I don’t like Nos. 13-15 so much. Love No. 12 though.

Britten, on the other hand, his Sinfonia de Requiem is so awesome that James Horner used it in his film score to Troy along with Shostakovich’s victory theme from the Symphonies Nos. 5 & 7 😮

I also posted this in the orchestral thread, but obviously it fits here as well 🙂

AARON COPLAND
Symphony No. 3; Symphony for Organ & Orchestra
E. Power Biggs, organ
The New York Philharmonic conducted by Leonard Bernstein

LAME 3.98r -v0|108 MB

As a newcomer to these works myself, I’m not going to pretend I’m an expert. Of course, I’m familiar with Copland’s Appalachian Spring, Rodeo, Fanfare for the Common Man, and Lincoln Portrait. His name is synonymous with the "American" sound in concert music, so pervasive is his influence. I’ve been looking to find more of Copland’s work, and when I stumbled across this CD — both with Leonard Bernstein conducting and the intriguing "Symphony for Organ & Orchestra" — I knew it would be too good to pass up.

From the liner notes:

Symphony No. 3 — "It is a forty-minute work of epic proportions in which the composer quite evidently set about to consolidate all of his musical discoveries. Latin and North American folk and popularist sources without resort to direct thematic quotation. At the same time, the composer’s predilection for the musical abstract is substantially present in the work. And Copland’s typically tight-structured approach to musical form broadens out onto an uncharacteristically expansive symphonic canvas. The latter effect derived in part from the composer’s perennial fascination with much of Mahler’s work and, perhaps, as has been noted by other critics, by a more disciplined extension of a direction suggested by the ambitious symphonies of Shostakovich. Finally, the essentially optimistic, mass-addressed, outgoing gesture of much of the work is pointedly symbolized by Copland’s use of his own Fanfare for the Common Man as a substantive thematic element and final peroration in the last movement."

Symphony for Organ & Orchestra — " ‘Ladies and gentlemen, I am sure you will agree that if such a gifted young man can write a symphony like this at twenty-three, within five years he will be ready to commit murder!’ It was January 11, 1925, and [conductor Walter] Damrosch had just led the first performance at Aeolian Hall, New York City. The Stravinsky- and French-influenced score was bold, brash and ambitious, and Damrosch’s humorously intended remark had been a way of, as Copland put it, ‘smoothing the ruffled feathers of his conservative Sunday afternoon ladies.’ […] The piece gained instant notoriety for Copland as a dissonant modernist and, following a Chicago performance, a local critic offered this colorful precis: ‘It begins with a reverie, breaks into a squalling scherzo and ends screaming like a bewildered banshee which by some twist of locale has found itself at the Wailing Wall." On a side note, a few years later, Copland rescored this piece without the organ and retitled it "Symphony No. 1."

Both of these can be a little demanding of the listener, but if they seem inaccessible in their entirety, the fourth movement of the Third Symphony and the scherzo of the Organ Symphony are probably easiest to digest. But I would suggest listening to the whole disc, especially to the Organ Symphony.

Enjoy. 🙂

No music, just an announcement today, folks.

Sir Charlies Mackerras has died of cancer at the age of 84. A great man who began his outstanding sixty year career conducting in 1948 at Sadler’s Wells.

I saw him live at The Proms last year; one year ago almost to the day, I wrote in this very thread "He’s in stunning shape for a man of 85 [sic] – his conducting is a litle less energetic than I’ve seen, and he occasionally perched on a small chair on the podium during quieter moments – but he never flinched. A truly amazing man."

The performance on that occasion underwhelmed me, but that is by the by; yesterday we lost one of the greatest musicians of our time. Today, my tie shall be black – nor just for Sir Charles but for the classical music community in general.

RIP Sir Charles Mackerras, 1925-2010

Tango, the tribute is much appreciated. Very sad news indeed – and yet, a full life, well-lived!

Sir Charles has been a gently guiding hand to me in discovering and enjoying classical music for as long as I’ve been aware of it. His recordings of Mozart, Schubert, Dvorak and Janacek, to name a few, are to be savoured. I’ve also had the pleasure of seeing him direct the Liverpool Phil on several occasions; they had a great rapport. His fresh, direct, unfussy approach seemed to produce wonderful results in almost any repertoire.

With this, and the passing of Vernon Handley in 08, it feels like we’re approaching the end of an era in British music making.

RIP

Slightly off topic, but speaking of the Proms, I’m wondering about the Dr Who concert next week. Murray Gold’s music for the recent series has been a real curate’s egg. The most frequently recurring theme (which I assume is for the new doc, though it doesn’t fit his persona in the slightest!) is a dreadful sub-Zimmer pounding action riff. But there’s also some wonderful modernistic suspense stuff and a gorgeous love theme. Worth tuning into on the radio, no doubt. Or is it being televised?

Back to classical 😉 we’ve got a Gergiev double-whammy of Mahler 4+5. I’ve not been impressed with his Mahler on disc, but you can’t get better bang for your buck than that!

There’s also a very tasty-looking "Bach Day" on the 14th of next month, including an evening concert of orchestral arrangements.

A KNIGHT AT THE BALLET
Sir Charles Mackerras
The Philharmonia Orchestra & The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra

MP3-V0
Part 1 – http://www.multiupload.com/2JRB772E6R
Part 2 – http://www.multiupload.com/4YJ1GP09GW

A little later than advertised, an upload for all Sir Charles Mackerras fans. 🙂

This is my own compilation that I’ve rejigged slightly, containing many of Sir Charles’ earliest studio recordings from the 50s and 60s (sounding wonderful!), together with his later stereo account of Pineapple Poll for Decca. It’s a showcase of his brilliant natural way with the orchestra, his clarity and lightness of touch. What’s more there are several rarities – lovely little lolly pops like ‘Donna Diana’ and ‘The Hunting Parson’, and an alternately charming and bracing suite from the much maligned Giacomo Meyerbeer.

The main work ‘Pineapple Poll’ I’ve credited to Sullivan, but it might more properly be ascribed to Mackerras himself; it’s the maestro’s own ballet score, woven rather freely and imaginatively from the melodies of Sullivan’s many operettas.

A word from Mackerras on its creation:

The idea of transforming the music of the Gilbert and Sullivan operas into a ballet score occurred to me while I was playing in the orchestra for a Gilbert and Sullivan season in Australia. ‘How wonderful it would be’, I thought, ‘to arrange the eminently danceable tunes into a sort of symphonic synthesis and score them for full orchestra.’ Although the idea had been in my head for several years, the opportunity to put theory into practice did not occur until 1951 at Sadler’s Wells, when I suggested it to John Cranko, a young choreographer from South Africa who was just beginning to create attention with his ingenious and original balletic inventions.

The thought of a ballet using Sullivan’s music and a scenario taken from Gilbert delighted John Cranko from the start, and after a thorough search of Gilbert’s Bab Ballads we decided on ‘The Bumboat Woman’s Story’, No. 81 of the series. The subject of this was later developed by Gilbert into HMS Pinafore, but for our purposes it provided an ideal balletic situation. Dancers do not speak on the stage, and thus the secret of the girls dressed as men could be kept from the audience until very near the end of the ballet. (Audiences are often as surprised as Poll herself to find that all the sailors are really women in disguise.) Luck was still further on our side in that the copyright on Sullivan’s music was just about to lapse, while the Festival of Britain in 1951 made a perfect setting for a new comic British ballet – especially one which indulged the British taste for laughing at their most honoured institutions.

Naturally, as there are no voices in my arrangement of the music, considerable alterations to Sullivan’s orchestration had to be made, so that the score would not sound like those all too familiar selections in which the cornet plays the voice part of ‘Take a pair of sparkling eyes’ to the accompaniment of Sullivan’s orchestration, cooked up for brass or military band. I wanted the music to sound as natural as possible in its new form, both in content and orchestration. However, I did study the original scoring of all the tunes used in the ballet, in order to preserve as many of Sullivan’s touches of instrumentation as possible. The score is a patchwork quilt of tunes from most of the Savoy operas, and they pass by the listener so quickly as to bewilder even Gilbert and Sullivan experts. So far, I have come across only two people who were able to place the source of every tune in the ballet. Every bar of Pineapple Poll, including the bridge passages, is taken from one or other of the operas, although I found it necessary to ‘cheat’ a little at the end and insert a few bars of Sullivan’s early Overtura di ballo. Occasionally I have made several quite separate tunes go together (a trick which Sullivan often used), and die-hards who associate every scrap of Sullivan’s melodies with Gilbert’s librettos will find that the original words in the opera often fit the new situation in the ballet. (An obvious example is my use of ‘Twenty lovesick maidens we’ from Patience, as the girls cast loving eyes at Captain Belaye)

As charming young ballerinas do not usually like to appear on the stage as fat old women, John Cranko changed Gilbert’s Little Buttercup-like character Poll Pineapple into a youthful and fascinating Pineapple Poll, while Lieutenant Belaye becomes a Captain (and later even an Admiral) in order to have the necessary swagger for a premier danseur. Other characters have also been added, but they are all thoroughly Gilbertian types and seem to fit quite naturally into the first Gilbert and Sullivan ballet.

Pineapple Poll was first performed on 13 March 1951 at Sadler’s Wells Theatre, by the then Sadler’s Wells Theatre Ballet (now the Royal Ballet), with Elaine Fifield, David Blair and David Poole in the principal roles of Poll, Belaye and Jasper. Although many other ballets based on Gilbert and Sullivan were predicted after the immediate success of Pineapple Poll, as far as I know no further such ballets have appeared.

Note: The original 1951 mono Sadler’s Wells recording of PP is also available on request.

Enjoy! 🙂

I don’t have this recording myself, but I think you should go for the Richard Hickox / Bournemouth Symphony version on EMI coupled with Paris and the Florida Suite. There’s a rather glowing review here (http://www.musicweb-international.com/classrev/2007/Jan07/Delius_Hickox_3705652.htm) and the samples on amazon sound good.

I’ve got a Delius set, including Brigg Fair, conducted by Andrew Davis, and it’s very nice too, with a marvellously natural recording quality (which, sadly mp3 doesn’t convey very well). I can upload that for you if you like?

But why not give Hickox a try. I think I might 😉

JohnGalt

07-26-2010, 05:50 PM

Looking into the Hickox now, thank you very much, Lens!

And yes, if you’re pleased with the Davis rendition and wouldn’t mind uploading that then I would appreciate it since I can’t buy from the Amazon MP3 store and it seems unavailable at the UK and Canada store in physical form so it’ll take me a while to track down the Hickox. 🙂

Now for another life-enhancing recording by Charles Mackerras:

BRAHMS – SERENADES
Sir Charles Mackerras
The Scottish Chamber Orchestra

MP3-V0
http://www.multiupload.com/XALN1E9KQU

If you want to get an instant feel for the perfection on offer here, listen to the bustle of the catchy scherzo of the first serenade, and its partnered rondo with distinctive scotch snap. At the other end of the scale, there’s the softly aching third movement – as gorgeous and rich and gentle as only Brahms could make it. Like his Brahms symphony cycle (and both sets of Beethoven’s), Mackerras selects modern instruments with a few key exceptions: leather-skinned timpani, "Vienna" horns and rotary-valve trumpets.

The second serenade is a flowing work cast in A major and scored without violins and trumpets. Woodwind having the upper hand is no bad thing – just listen to the infectious dancing finale for a highlight. Mackerras and the SCO have all the colours and rhythms just right. Enjoy!

P.S. I could upload the whole set of Mozart’s piano concertos by Gardiner/Bilson if anyone really, really wants them.

Roberto Gerhard’s Concerto for Orchestra done by Norman Del Mar. I’ve been searching for it for a long time. It is reportedly one of the greatest 20th century works of music, and from what I am hearing it does not disappoint! It is unbelievable!

Gerhard is generally worth checking out anyway though…his violin concerto is stunning, and haunting, if anyone is interested in having me upload it?

Hi, I’m currently a music student who is studying music education and I was wondering if anyone could recommend anything good featuring Oboe and/or English Horn.
If anyone had any links to anything like that it would great help.
Also, I am looking for some Eric Whitacre recordings if anyone has anything.

Um…there is an insane amount of music with oboe and English horn…like…most orchestral music. Could you be more specific?…

Personally I think Maslanka and Saint-Saens both wrote really great Oboe Sonatas. Berio’s Sequenza for solo oboe is very good (and a rare treat).

Ligeti’s Double Concerto for Flute and Oboe is a high masterpiece.

Carter’s Sonata for flute, oboe, cello & harpsichord is very good…though not necessarily oboe-centric.

Aho did a rare Oboe Quintet (Oboe set against strings) that is definitely a masterpiece worth hearing.

Wolpe did a quartet for oboe, cello, percussion & piano that is very good.

Rochberg and Matrinu both wrote astounding Oboe concertos.

Is this the kind of stuff you are looking for?

Horn is trickier but Ligeti and Brahms horn trios, Babbitt’s Around the Horn, Hovhaness’ "Artik" Concerto, and Angelic Song, Strauss’ Horn Concertos, Mozart’s Horn Quintet, and maybe even Beethoven’s sonata for Horn and Piano may be good starting places?

But usually horns are used best in the orchestral setting it seems to me…the horn parts throughout Tchaikovsky’s Manfred Symphony and Mussorgsky’s Bald Mountain come to mind, but I’ll have to think of other more specific examples I guess…Obviously Wagner wrote beautifully for horns as well. And Mahler kept that going in his work, especially the 3rd Symphony.

I’d be surprised if you weren’t aware of a lot of this already though…

So can you help me out with more specifics?

Am I on the right track?

GIACINTO SCELSI
STRING QUARTET NO.4
Klangforum Wien
Hans Zender

MP3-V0 + Scans
Multiupload.com – upload your files to multiple file hosting sites! (http://www.multiupload.com/VQZQ98W3L6)

This recording is one of those rare gems – a miracle of absolute concentration, the players living the music (and very difficult music at that!). It’s certainly not for the faint-hearted, so beware if you need traditional harmony and melody. What we have here is something quintessential to modern music; indeed many regard the 4th quartet as Scelsi’s finest achievement. It marks his first use of string-by-string tablature notation, treating each of the 16 strings that make up the ensemble as individual instruments – almost an "orchestral" approach. The piece begins clustering around the tone of C and over the span of a single 14 minute movement rises through a microtonal wave up to A. It’s like being taken to the edge, and then being coaxed a little further, and experiencing something both wonderful and terrifying. Stick the volume up and give it a shot! 🙂

From Classicstoday:

Each piece seems to be "about" a single concept: Elohim is about wild chromatic runs and is the work that most verges on being out of control; the Duo for Violine and Violoncello deals with sudden occurrences, such as night terrors; Anagamin toys with a single chord that gets bent, smashed, and twisted out of shape; Maknongan is a low, throaty unison for dark and moody strings. Klangforum Wien is in top shape here, under the fearless baton of Hans Zender, who is willing to take the players to the dark corners Scelsi occupies. This is the sort of music they were made to play and they do so with amazing accuracy and appropriately sheer-pitched terror. As is to be expected from the Kairos label, the sound quality is exquisite, capturing every nuance of this startling music.

Rather a contrast from the above, conductor John Lanchbery arranged these ballet suites for the 1971 film, based on tableaux from Potters’ famous stories and illustrations. Discreet Victoriana is the order of the day; much of the musical material is drawn from popular, now largely forgotten tunes of era. Highlights include prickly shimmy of ‘Mrs Tiggy Winkle’s Laundry’ and ‘The Tale of Pigling Bland’. The latter is a beautifully self-contained symphonic narrative in itself, with adventure, playfulness, wonder, fledgling romance and one beguiling melody after another. Enjoy!

Thank you, that saves me a bit of trouble. I can certainly recommend the Christopher Hogwood disc above – one of the Academy of Ancient Scrapers classics! 😉

I’d also like to second what Dj???houty says about Carmignola’s Vivaldi. His Four Seasons is probably top dog of all the ones I’ve heard (lots). I know it’s silly to say something is ‘definitive’ but this has everything – wonderful tingling period instruments, drama, colour, joie de vivre, superb solos (Carmignola overdubbed himself I believe for the multi-parts) and style to spare. I have a different disc of the late concertos; they seem to be more rhapsodic and asymmetric – in a very good way!

Vivaldi: Concertos for Mandolin with Multiple Instruments (Fabio Biondi ??? Europa Galante)

For fans of the classical mandolin, here is a disc of the best works for the instrument by Antonio Vivaldi, the best friend the mandolin ever had. And for the rest of the world, here is a disc of colorful Baroque concertos by Antonio Vivaldi, the best friend the Baroque concerto ever had. After all, Vivaldi may have been the mandolin’s best friend, but even he could only compose so many mandolin concertos. But while the limited tone, range, and color of the instrument may only be so interesting even to its best friend, Vivaldi did everything that could be done with the instrument, and his handful of concertos are easily the best ever composed for the mandolin. This disc of Vivaldi mandolin concertos by Europa Galante under the direction of Fabio Biondi is also easily the best ever recorded. Because while there have been other great recordings of Vivaldi’s mandolin concertos by other outstanding mandolin players, no other ensemble has so completely and thoroughly mastered and integrated the mandolin into its overall sonority. Thus, while the mandolinists of Europa Galante play just as beautifully as Paul O’Dette in his masterful performances on Hyperion, Europa Galante is more sensitive to the delicate colors of the instrument than O’Dette’s Parley of Instruments. This results in performances that are more than the sum of their parts. For many listeners, it is the rest of the concertos on this disc that will prove just as attractive as the mandolin works. Such relative rarities as the Concerto for two violini in tromba marina, two recorders, two mandolins, two chalumeaux, two theorbos, and cello (RV 558) receive gloriously colorful performances by Biondi and Europa Galante. This is a superb disc with or without the mandolin concertos. [4.5/4.5; Performance/Sound]

This delicious collection contains two of Vivaldi’s most remarkable creations, the Concertos RV 555 and RV 558, scored for a vast ensemble including solo mandolins, recorders, oboes, chalumeaux, cellos, harpsichords, theorbos, viole all’inglese, and something called "violini in tromba marina", which no one to this day is entirely sure about. And my, how Fabio Biondi and Europa Galante do play! At first the tempos sound excessively fleet, but when you hear how well these players handle their solo episodes, and sense their joy in the excesses of Baroque instrumental writing and the opportunities for virtuosity that it offers, then it’s practically impossible not to be swept away in the sheer excitement of it all. That said, if you love this music you also should hear Leonard Bernstein’s wonderful performance (on Sony) of Alfredo Casella’s edition of RV 558, rescored for an equally extravagant ensemble of modern instruments.

The heart of this collection lies in the three concertos featuring solo mandolin (RV 532 actually requires two), which number among Vivaldi’s most piquantly appealing inspirations. RV 576, scored for solo violin, two recorders, three oboes, and solo bassoon, also represents the composer at his most inventive and expansive, and the quality of the wind playing here is second to none in the period instrument world. In short, you will find in these performances more than sufficient evidence to refute the notion that Vivaldi wrote the same concerto 600 times. Or at all events, he only did it 593 times: these seven works remain outstanding for their character and individuality, and you won’t find them better played or more immaculately recorded anywhere. [10/10; Artistic Quality/Sound Quality]

Tracklist:
01. Concerto for 2 Mandolins in G Major, RV.532: I. Allegro (03:58)
02. Concerto for 2 Mandolins in G Major, RV.532: II. Andante (02:47)

06. Concerto in C Major, "con molti stromenti", RV.558: III. Allegro (02:55)
07. Concerto for Violin and Oboe in G minor, ‘dedicato a Sua Altezza Reale di Sassonia’, RV.576: I. [Allegro] (04:13)
08. Concerto for Violin and Oboe in G minor, ‘dedicato a Sua Altezza Reale di Sassonia’, RV.576: II. Larghetto (02:18)
09. Concerto for Violin and Oboe in G minor, ‘dedicato a Sua Altezza Reale di Sassonia’, RV.576: III. Allegro (03:52)
10. Concerto for 2 Violins and 2 Cellos in D Major, RV.564: I. Allegro (04:13)
11. Concerto for 2 Violins and 2 Cellos in D Major, RV.564: II. Largo (02:35)
12. Concerto for 2 Violins and 2 Cellos in D Major, RV.564: III. Allegro (03:24)

14. Concerto for Violin in G minor, ‘dedicato a S. Pisendel’ (Dresden version), RV.319: II. [Lento] (02:25)
15. Concerto for Violin in G minor, ‘dedicato a S. Pisendel’ (Dresden version), RV.319: III. Allegro (03:15)
16. Concerto for Mandolin in C Major, RV.425: I. [Allegro] (03:10)
17. Concerto for Mandolin in C Major, RV.425: II. Largo (02:54)
18. Concerto for Mandolin in C Major, RV.425: III. [Allegro] (02:10)
19. Concerto for 3 Violins and Winds in C Major, RV.555: I. Allegro (03:46)
20. Concerto for 3 Violins and Winds in C Major, RV.555: II. Largo a piacimento (01:42)
21. Concerto for 3 Violins and Winds in C Major, RV.555: III. Allegro (03:03)

Europa Galante’s spirited interpretation of RV 558 is worth the price of this CD alone.

Now, I know that nobody requested this – but I like to think that this thread, like the Orchestral Action Music thread, has evolved beyond its original intention and is now simply a place for classical music; sharing and discussing alike.

To that end, here’s something rare and wonderful. Fans of British music, brass bands, and the Euphonium should pay specific attention…

Philip Wilby (b. 1949, British)
Concerto for Euphonium and Orchestra
performed by the BBC Philharmonic
Ivor Bolton, conductor
David Childs, Euphonium soloist (BBC Young Musician 2000 Finalist – aged 19 in this recording)

(Live recording. My transfer and remaster from VHS. LAME 3.98.4)

This is one of my all time favourites in the classical repertoire. Originally written for brass band, Wilby arranged his piece for full symphony orchestra exclusively for soloist David Childs, who performed it live at the BBC Young Musicians competition in 2000. The concerto is available on Naxos in its original arrangement (a glittering but somewhat sterile performance by the Black Dyke band) and there is another (awful) recording by the Williams Fairey band floating around too, but to my knowledge, the orchestral version has never been heard since. I find the orchestral version superior; both are beautiful, but the presence of a full orchestra is felt – especially in the slow movement which achieves such a feeling of peace and stillness.

"But," I hear you cry. "You said the orchestral version was never recorded!"

Well, actually, it was… by me! The concert at which it was performed received a live television broadcast in the UK. Fortunately, somebody (me) made a recording of that concert (broadcast in Stereo) on Hi-Fi VHS – and it sounds absolutely magnificent. (The irony is that I recorded the concert for another piece and had absolutely no idea that this concerto even existed. Of course, it had me captivated from the very first note, and the piece I was originally interested in – a middling performance of Rachmaninov’s Variations on a Theme of Paganini, is long forgotten.)

VHS, as anybody who has had the pleasure of using it will know, deteriorates – and when it does, the first thing to go is usually the audio track. Fortuitously, this recording survived completely intact – albeit with a handful of problems with that telltale VHS crackle. After my initial transfer to the digital domain, I painstakingly removed these (each and every crackle, by hand, over a period of three days) and that is absolutely all that needed doing. If you’re thinking of passing this up because it’s an amateur recording, don’t! The sound quality on the broadcast was phenomenal and the recording is spotless.

In fact, it sounds ravishing – and it certainly captures the powerful performance (both Childs and the BBC Philharmonic are on top form) and the absolutely electric atmosphere of the concert, not to mention the wonderful acoustics of Manchester’s Bridgewater Hall, where the competition was held. You’d never believe that the source was an ten year old consumer video tape.

As far as the concerto is concerned, it’s absolutely sublime – if you ever thought the Euphonium (basically a big Tuba) was just for oompah-oompah, give this a try – you’ll be surprised. It’s a powerful showpiece, but it’s also tenderly romantic – the slow movement is just beautiful. A fine piece that embraces all the finest traditions of the British brass band, and a once-in-a-lifetime performance – preserved for you and in the name of great art, by your friend Tangotreats.

Sorry about the double post, but sometimes good things come in two’s… I took a chance on this one whilst out shopping last week, and was very pleasantly surprised.

大栗裕 – (HIROSHI OHGURI)
Violin Concerto
Fantasy on Osaka Folk Tunes
Legend for Orchestra
Rhapsody on Osaka Nursery Rhymes
Kazuhiro Takagi, violin
Osaka Philharmonic Orchestra

My Rip – LAME 3.98.4 V0 – Scans included – Sleeve notes in English and German

I don’t make it out record shopping as often as I used to, due to various commitments and lack of time… but I try to do it every now and again. Last Sunday I braved London’s Oxford Street and this was an impulse buy – at Naxos’ prices, it wasn’t hard to justify, and I’m very pleased because I enjoyed this disc immensely. The sleeve notes place the music in its cultural context – Ohguri embued the spirit (and language) of Osaka into these works, which of course are universal. The music is approachable, tuneful, immaculately orchestrated, and percussion is particularly well highlighted. Ohguri wields the traditional Western orchestra (skilfully) with a pure, honest, Eastern sensibility. This is no crossover. This is no western music with superficial Japanese overtones and cliched harmonies. It’s far more subtle than that; it is all at once very alien and very familiar.

I’d describe this better if I weren’t so tired… but in any case, you should listen for yourself and make your own judgement. I find these works very appealing. I hope you will too. 🙂

This is a cross-post from the Orchestral thread, but it’s appropriate here as well.

SAMUEL BARBER
Cello Concerto, et al.
Wendy Warner, cello
The Royal Scottish National Orchestra, conducted by Marin Alsop

11 Tracks | MP3 VBR -v0 | 105.85 MB

I’m primarily posting this album for the Cello Concerto, as I know the Adagio has been posted numerous times and I’ll admit to being somewhat indifferent to Medea (although it of course has its moments).

The concerto is very introspective and, I think, melancholic in tone (par for the course for Barber). The melodies are very dance-like and reminiscent of ballet, a quality that Barber seems to share with his contemporary, Copland. The first two movements generate a tremendous sense of longing, while the third adds hints of playfulness and fire into the mix, as if some hypothetical protagonist has chosen to take action after two movements of contemplation. Haunting and very beautiful, with a wonderful performance by Chicago cellist Wendy Warner.

Medea, the ballet suite, is a more expansive work; not devoid of Barber’s inward sound, but at the same time spotted with moments of grandeur and horror, as befits the mythological source. A most interesting listen, though it hasn’t captivated me in the same manner as the concerto or the final piece…

The Adagio for Strings. This speaks for itself, but it can’t hurt to have another version for comparison’s sake.

Download it here (http://www.multiupload.com/ZVZTJ8BZX9)

I wonder if anyone has or knows where to find a piece of revolutionary Chinese music, in orchestral form, called Battling the Typhoon, also known as Fighting the Typhoon, or The Fight with the Typhoon [战台风,or Zhan tai feng in Chinese], composed by Ms WANG Changyuan.

One version says this work was composed in 1965 shortly after a typhoon struck the Hainan Island south of China. The composer went there to participate in the work of reconstruction and composed the piece of music to describe the fighting spirit of the inhabitants. The beginning describes daily life. Then the typhoon hits the island. The storm calms down and the heavens open up with torrid rain. At last the sun breaks through the clouds and reconstruction starts.

Another version states this is a dramatic depiction of fight of the Shanghai harbour proletariat against the forces of nature, while protecting the property of the people and the Chinese communist government. Wang composed the work in 1965 while living for three months in the dormitories of the Shanghai harbour and sharing her quarters with the workers there.

I do not know which version is true, since Hainan and Shanghai are over 1,000 miles apart.

The music has the wonderful sub-title ???An Exaltation of the Socialist Initiative and the Heroism of the Dockers???!

I used to have it on cassette tape, which I recorded over quarter of a century ago from British radio BBC Radio 3, in turn broadcast live from a classical concert in China. My tape has now expired before I could convert it to disc. I have found Chinese zither and piano versions, but are not quite as spine-tingling and nuanced as for full orchestra.

Any help with finding a CD or MP3-320 version would be much appreciated.

Regarding Wagner’s orchestral music, some would say that a good introduction to his ‘Ring’ would be any of the recordings featuring the orchestral interludes. Two of the most attractive are the following:
– ‘The Ring Without Words’, performed by the Berlin Philharmonic and conducted by Lorin Maazel (TELARC)
– ‘The Ring, an Orchestral Adventure’, performed by the Royal Scottish National Orchestra, conducted by Neeme Jarvi (CHANDOS)

These are collections of ‘bleeding chunks’, as some english critic nicknamed the performance of the orchestral showpieces, which constitute a small portion of the 15-hour tetralogy.

Another interesting option is the ‘Introduction to the Ring’ by Deryck Cooke (DECCA), issued in two CD and featuring fragments performed by the Vienna Philharmonic, conducted by Solti. A narrator presents all the basic musical themes (the famous leitmotiven) and describes how they are constantly developed and combined to form new ones.

If you ask so, I think I could try to upload the Berlin Philharmonic disc, which I have in lossless. I also have the ‘Introduction’ but with the narration in Spanish.

It was released in France in 2007 (Amazon link (http://www.amazon.fr/Discoth%C3%A8que-Id%C3%A9ale-Classique-100-CD/dp/B000OPOEKI/ref=sr_1_2?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1295878442&sr=1-2)).
It’ s huge compilation that covers a very wide range of classical music. Good for classical music newbies (like me!). I’d love this one…

Thanks

EDIT: I don’t have much to share apart from those pieces conducted and/or composed by John Williams:

I’ve just made a simple request on Google : rapidshare Discoth???que id???ale classique and… guess what ? It has already been uploaded there :

PW : lanceval

It is not in disc order but by composer : I guess that, taking a little time to put it in order, you could have the original track order back. It’s better if you don’t know which period the composer is related to.
As an advice… the first in alphabetical order is Tommaso Albinoni : have a listen to his Oboe concertos if some are on the set, they are lovely and easy-listening baroque pieces.

Enjoy ! ; )

Yeah I know of this release. I downloaded it a while ago and there are a few issues:
– quality is rather poor: If I remember well, it’s 128k
– after I reordered every single track back to the original CD order, it turned out that there are several extra tracks and some genuine tracks are missing…

That’s why I am looking for a better release…

Thanks anyway Dj???houty !

This post has three purposes. First, to shamelessly bump this thread back to the first page where it belongs. Second, to highlight a particularly lovely piece of music. Third, to celebrate the end of a painful afternoon drowning in cleaning fluid and whatnot, giving my cassette deck a much needed service.

Here’s a piece you’ve probably heard before, but a performance you almost certainly haven’t. It’s from a 1998 concert given by the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Adrian Leaper, with Imogen Cooper as the soloist.

Back in ’98 I was too poor to buy CDs or anything for that matter, so my love of classical music was satisfied by BBC Radio 3. Every few months I spent my meagre pocket money on a big box of blank cassettes and recorded everything I could get my hands on. Some recordings were better than others – and some of the performances I captured were less than stellar… but some of them were something quite special. This is one of those golden performances that was never meant to be captured or recorded or remembered – it was done on the day for the audience at BBC Manchester and that was that… but a little boy of thirteen sat listening, utterly transfixed. I remember the day; it was a summer afternoon and the second movement played just as the evening moved into that wonderful transition period… where it’s still bright and warm out, but somehow quieter and a little dreamy.

This performance helped me fall in love with Ravel’s Piano Concerto, and over the years I have heard various other recordings of it – but I have always found myself drawn back to this one, and I don’t really know why. Perhaps it’s nostalgia, or perhaps it does have something special about it… regardless, I am delighted to be able to share with you this little piece of my musical awakening.

My cassette deck today is considerably better quality than the old, broken hand-me-down I used for the recording – with some judicious adjustments here and there, I found myself completely astounded by the sound quality – and it is excellent; hiss is low (and has been digitally reduced, to a sensible extent and with utmost respect to the music).

Always good to hear different interpretations of the Ravel. You are absolutely right in its nostalgic, of times past "end of day" feel….exactly why the late choreographer Kenneth Macmillan entitled his ballet based on this piece "Le Fin Du Jour".

Personally my favourite has always been Arturo Michelangeli’s performance conducted by Gracis….for shear poetry I don’t think it has been bettered……so many performers put too much false emotion into it……the notes are emotive enough.

Well, it’s time again for another trip into my past… I will say right now that if you’re the sort of person who can’t tolerate poor sound quality for the sake of an excellent performance, you won’t be interested in this one; the sound quality is respectable, but it’s not fantastic. The recording under scrutiny was made in a rush, under less than ideal circumstances, on old equipment. If you can put up with slightly muddy sonics in exchange for a really, really fantastic performance, read on…

This is my first ever exposure to Shostakovich; I can tell you that it took me a great many years to finally make up my mind whether I loved him or hated him (my decision was the former) and at the time of this concert, this music made me very uneasy indeed. The year was 1996, and I was 12 – so hopefully you’ll be able to forgive me for not entirely understanding ole’ Shosty! To my credit, though, I listened and relistened to this concert thinking that there was something very special there and hoping that it would gradually worm its way into my consciousness. I found the whole thing so turgid and tasteless. Thankfully, tastes change.

So, we have a recording made from TV in 1996; this was still a good couple of years before I was able to get my hands on a Stereo video recorder. Sadly, I was also forced to improvise a blank tape at the last minute – all I could find was a very used tape from the early 80s.

The picture, whilst marred with occasional dropout, has survived the years rather well. (Well, at any rate, it has brushed up quite well following an extensive restoration.) The sound, on the other hand, suffered quite badly – but no worse than you’d expect from the mono soundtrack of a thirty year old VHS tape! I have had my transfer VCR to pieces over the last few days, cleaning heads, greasing mechanisms, fine-tuning azimuth screws, and looking at spectrograph scans in order to squeeze every last drop out of this tape as physically possible. Having finished restoring the audio (transfer, noise reduction, re-equalisation, and the addition of light acoustically-extracted ambience) I can say it’s a wonderfully electric performance with excellent soloists (Joanna MacGregor is SEXXXY) and the strings of the BBC Symphony Orchestra play superbly. Very much worth having. I haven’t had nearly as much fun with other performances of this concerto than I have with this one.

Tango, thanks for the two brilliant Proms! The Shostakovich in particular I haven’t listened to in ages, and everyone is ON FIRE here. Young Joanna MacGregor is stunning too, I agree 😉

I know you’re not a Bach fan, but did you catch any of her Well-Tempered Clavier on BBC2 back in the day (when was it now? Early noughties?)? Her performance of the GREAT B minor fugue, the culmination and disintegration of Book 1, is essential. Thankfully some kind soul has youtubed it for posterity:

Fugue – YouTube – Bach – WTC I (Joanna MacGregor) – Prelude & Fugue No. 24 in B Minor BWV 869 – 2. Fugue (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uv7gjiMSypU)

She also describes the music far more incisively than I could.

Some "Pictures at an Exhibition" frenzy!!!!

Pianist Joanna MacGregor interviewing several people, including Leonard Slatkin, Vladimir Ashkenazy, Edward Johnson (doyen of Leopold Stokowski Society) and Lawrence Leonard about the several orchestrations for "Pictures at an Exhibition".

Part2
YouTube – Mussorgsky: Pictures at an Exhibition. An introduction to various orchestration part 2/2 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-qNwq7gKvg)

At a Promenade Concert on Monday, August 19th 1991 we heard Leonard Slatkin’s brilliant first compilation from nine different orchestrations of Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition, a remarkably successful initiative, reminding us, as it did, of how many arrangements there have been of this evocative score. Then he went for extracts from Lawrence Leonard’s version for piano and orchestra, from Vladimir Ashkenazy, Lucien Cailliet, Sergey Gorchakov, Leonidas Leonardi, Sir Henry Wood, Mikhail Tushmalov, Leopold Stokowski and Maurice Ravel.
It was the indefatigable Edward Johnson, champion of Leopold Stokowski, we had to thank for getting Slatkin interested and finding some of the scores. Now Slatkin has done it again with a new – in many ways more way-out – compilation including versions by Ellison, Gorchakov, Walter Goehr, Naoumoff, Geert van Keulen, Ashkenazy, Simpson, Cailliet, Wood, Lawrence Leonard, Leo Funtek, Boyd, Ravel and the Australian composer/arranger Douglas Gamley.

Slatkin’s first compilation, although he played it round the world, has never been commercially released, which makes it all the more pleasing to welcome his second version on this CD from the 2004 Proms at the Royal Albert Hall.

Percy Grainger – In a Nutshell
City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra with Simon Rattle Conducting

Mediafire (http://www.mediafire.com/?4lshggbeboba145)

I was introducing Lens to Grainger, and he looked around to find this which has become one of my absolute favorite listening experiences of the last five years at least! I kept waiting for him to post this, but I am just bursting at the seams with the urge to share PERCY GRAINGER!

I was lucky enough to have an Australian band teacher in middle school that introduced me to Percy Grainger, and I have loved his music since. He takes the simplest pastoral melodies and with a genius that is just so tasty, picks them apart and expands them in a way that never ceases to entertain. If you’ve never heard Grainger before, you’re in for a real treat!!

This set contains the "In a Nutshell" suite, an arrangement of a Ravel and a Debussy piece, Lincolnshire Posy, and "The Warriors – Music for an Imaginary Ballet". Lincolnshire Posy, which is what led Lens to this album, is very traditional wind band repertoire but receives a somewhat lackluster performance here. My favorites of the album are The Warriors –which seems to be a sublime mix of Stravinsky and Ives that leaves me gasping for air– , The Nutshell Suite, and La Vallee Des Cloches.

Forgive my barren, lackluster review, but please listen to this gem!!

Bach Day – BBC Proms 2010: The grand finale to Bach Day features arrangements for orchestra made across almost a century. They range from the subtly coloured ballet score that William Walton drew from several of Bach’s cantatas to the thunderous reinventions of organ works that begin and end the concert. Also appearing are Grainger’s ‘ramble’ on ‘Sheep may safely graze’, Malcolm Sargent’s recasting of ‘Air on the G String’, Granville Bantock’s treatment of the popular chorale ‘Sleepers, awake!’ – and two special commissions from young composers who offer their new reimaginings based on movements from Bach’s sonatas for solo violin and for viola da gamba.

Having opened with the pure, pared-down period-performance approach stemming from the research of recent decades, Bach Day lets its hair down in a glorious, if slightly unfashionable, celebration.

Hi guys

Anybody got Mahler’s 4th conducted by Benjamin Britten – I only know of this performance by its reputation. I am very keen to listen to Britten conducting another composrer’s music – particularly one who was as much in love with song and voice as himself.

Thanks.

Hello everyone,

I’ve been looking for a long time for Haydn’s Creation conducted by Solti with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Burrowes, Greenberg, Wohlers, Morris and Nimsgern as soloists. There is no way to find it. The only one I find is the later recording in a live concert with the same orchestra and director and other soloists: Ziesak, Lippert, Pape and Scharinger.

Thanks.

Dvorak – Symphony Nos. 7, 8, and 9
Czech Philharmonic Orchestra Vaclav Neumann
MP3 VBR v-0 – 150MB

Some might think that posting late Dvorak symphonies is silly because they are so well-known. While this may be true, on the off chance that some here have not heard this marvelous version of the 7th and 8th (and to a lesser extent a still-solid version of the 9th) it must be posted to share such beauty! As one can tell from the cover above, this is from a set that includes all the symphonies–but of course, like any composer, as Dvorak matured, the music got more lush and beautiful. Dvorak’s 8th is simply a stunning piece of relaxing classical bursting with emotion and color. Of course I’m sure we’ve all heard bits and pieces from the 9th whether or not we are conscious of it.

Has any one got any early recordings (78rpm or vinyl) of Sch???h???razade?

What about the Oscar Fried/Berlin Phil from 1928 or the Eugene Goossens/Royal Opera House Orchestra from 1925?

As a starter here are 2 fabulous early documents of the piece:

Stokowski in Philadelphia from 1934
MEGAUPLOAD – The leading online storage and file delivery service (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=B0VDPPPA)

Ansermet conducting the Orchestre des Ballets Russes in 2 excerpts
http://rapidshare.com/files/257503568/Rimsky_Korsakow_ExtraitsSheherazade_Ansermet_1916. zip
(these 2 Ansermet excerpts are the first known recording of the work and were put down in New York in 1916 during the Ballets Russes American Tour – originally as two 78rpm sides)

Not my rips – thanks to the original posters. Both are excellent transfers (FLAC) considering the dates!

Any takers ……. ?

Lens of Fire, can you re-up that?

The complete symphonies of Ralph Vaughn Williams? And the Tuba Concerto by the same composer?

And the complete piano concertos of Kabalevsky as well.

A lot of the links have long since died, and those above have caught my interest the most. If anyone feels free to re-up any others, that would be nice:)

Igor Buketoff (1915-2001) created an arrangement of 1812 Overture sometime around 1960, in which he incorporated choral forces to sing the words to these tunes. So, we hear the opening sung a cappella (instead of being played by the strings, per Tchaikovsky’s score), and the addition of the choir in the finale.

Bach-Stokowski : "Wir glauben all’ an einen Gott"
‪Bach "Wir glauben all' an einen Gott" – Stokowski conducts‬&rlm; – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDBeI48uFd4)
In September 1972, Leopold Stokowski, then 90 years old, journeyed to Prague where he conducted the Czech Philharmonic in two concerts that featured several of his own Bach transcriptions. From these we hear his version of "We all believe in one God," originally a Chorale Prelude for organ that is also known as the ‘Giant Fugue’. Stokowski continued conducting and making records for a further five years and died at the age of 95.

Handel "Water Music" – Leopold Stokowski’s orchestration
‪Handel "Water Music" – Leopold Stokowski's orchestration‬&rlm; – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wl1Ek-0t0gA)
Stokowski’s colourful edition of 8 movements from Handel’s "Water Music" was recorded by the BBC Philharmonic under Matthias Bamert. We hear 5 numbers (Allegro; Bourree; Hornpipe; Andante; and a final Allegro). The superb oboe solo in the ‘Andante’ is played by Christopher Blake. (From a ‘Chandos’ CD.)

Stokowski’s own Purcell "Suite" – Stokowski conducts
‪Purcell "Suite" – Stokowski conducts‬&rlm; – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4ZBkykU2zs)
For a 1954 TV programme, Stokowski conducted the BBC Symphony Orchestra in his own "Suite" of music by Purcell:
(a) Trumpet Tune ‘The Cebell’
(b) Echo Pastorale ‘The Fairy Queen’
(c) Hornpipe ‘The Fairy Queen’
(d) When I am Laid in Earth ‘Dido and Aeneas’
(e) Largo and Allegro ‘The Fairy Queen’.

Frescobaldi / Hans Kindler : Toccata "In the Style of Frescobaldi"
Toccata "In the Style of Frescobaldi" – Orchestral Version – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-GTOB5I_FM)

In 1925, the cellist Gaspar Cassado published what purported to be a cello-and-piano arrangement of a ‘Toccata’ by Frescobaldi. However, as Cassado’s Wikipedia biography points out, he was the author of "several musical hoaxes" and this was one of them. It was in fact his own composition. He had simply taken his cue from Fritz Kreisler, who had played works supposedly by Vivaldi, Tartini and others that he himself had written in their style. Another famous cellist, Hans Kindler, took up conducting and made an orchestral version of this piece. He was unaware that it was by Cassado, who never owned up to his hoaxes (unlike Kreisler) so Frescobaldi’s name appeared on his score. The splendid recording Kindler made of this music dates from 1940 and is heard here on a Biddulph CD (WHL 063)

Mussorgsky "Night on Bald Mountain" – Sir Adrian Boult conducts
Mussorgsky "Night on Bald Mountain" – Sir Adrian Boult conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhXiPdJ6Z-8)

Sir Adrian Boult made only one recording of any of Mussorgsky’s music: this 1960 performance of "Night on Bald Mountain" for Reader’s Digest. Its producer, Charles Gerhardt, ‘tarted up’ the Rimsky-Korsakov score with a few ideas of his own, notably in the percussion (added side-drums, cymbal crashes and gong strokes) as well as deleting the recurring brass ‘fanfare’ motifs familiar in the Rimsky edition. Sir Adrian seems to have enjoyed letting his hair down, what little of it there was!. (Chesky CD 53.)

Liszt: Hungarian Rhapsody No. 6 – Hans Kindler conducts

Hans Kindler conducts his own orchestration of Liszt’s Hungarian Rhapsody No. 6 "Carnival in Pest" in a recording he made with the National Symphony Orchestra in 1945. Dutch-born Kindler had begun his musical career as a cellist but later took up conducting and founded the NSO in 1931. This is the only recording yet made of his own arrangement of the Liszt piano piece. (From Biddulph CD WHL 063)

Hi, I posted in another thread asking what musical piece this is, and was told to try here. It’s from the animated movie Be Forever Yamato, the music plays in the background starting at 3:24, continues through 4:12 to 6:24. If by chance anyone recognizes it and can tell me what it is, I would be very, very grateful. Thanks if you can help. 🙂

Chopin "Grande Valse Brillante" – Britten’s orchestration – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpXsDE-4uNg)
Benjamin Britten spent the early years of World War II in America and to make ends meet accepted a number of commissions. One of these was a new version of "Les Sylphides" for the Ballet Theatre in New York. Benjamin Britten’s sequence of orchestrated Chopin piano pieces (Preludes, Nocturnes, Mazurkas, etc.) concludes with the "Grande Valse Brillante" heard here. It comes from an early 1950s LP by the Ballet Theatre Orchestra under Joseph Levine in what seems to be the only recording yet made of Britten’s scoring.

Bach: Toccata and Fugue in D minor – Stokowski conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ax9C29_Gcms)
The most famous Bach Transcription of all is Leopold Stokowski’s version of the Toccata and Fugue in D minor. He featured it in Walt Disney’s "Fantasia" and recorded it several times over the years. It is played here in a 1954 television programme in which Stokowski conducted the BBC Symphony Orchestra.

Mussorgsky-Wood "The Great Gate of Kiev" – Leonard Slatkin conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYMXDORvqBY)
In the 1991 BBC Proms season at the Royal Albert Hall, Leonard Slatkin devised a version of Mussorgsky’s "Pictures at an Exhibition" in which each ‘picture’ and ‘promenade’ was by arranged by a different orchestrator (Ravel, Stokowski, Ashkenazy, Tushmalov, Leonidas Leonardi, Gortchakov, etc.). The sequence concluded with Ravel’s version of "The Great Gate of Kiev" but as an encore, Slatkin and the Philharmonia Orchestra played it again in the arrangement by Sir Henry Wood, founder of the Proms.

Purcell-Stokowski "Dido’s Lament" – Andrew Davis conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XotIPxrbEg4)
Leopold Stokowski’s string orchestra version of "Dido’s Lament" ("When I am Laid in Earth" from Henry Purcell’s ‘Dido and Aeneas’) was played at the Last Night of the 1995 Proms by the BBC Symphony Orchestra under Andrew Davis in London’s Royal Albert Hall.

"Greensleeves" is best-known in Vaughan Williams’s version but here it is beautifully arranged for strings and harp by Rene Leibowitz. He conducts the New Symphony Orchestra of London on a Readers Digest "Concert Favourites" LP.

Bach "Italian Concerto" – Orchestral Version – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYxc8u1FQxE)
Bach’s "Italian Concerto" in F major (BWV 971) is usually played on the harpsichord or piano. However, in 1936, Hans Schmidt-Isserstedt recorded a delightful orchestral version with the Berlin Philharmonic. Those old 78s (heard here) seem to be the only recording of the work in full orchestral form, as opposed to a smaller arrangement for chamber group. This particular version was made by the conductor himself. (From Biddulph BID 83069/70)

Sousa "The Stars and Stripes Forever" – Stokowski conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2PB5fSzuH4)
John Philip Sousa’s military band march "The Stars and Stripes Forever" is here given the full symphonic treatment by Leopold Stokowski in his own brilliant orchestration. He was already in his 90s when he made this recording with the National Philharmonic, a specially assembled orchestra of top-flight London musicians, and it comes from the ‘EMI Classics’ CD "Stokowski Showcase."

Bach-Elgar: Fantasia and Fugue in C minor – Elgar conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9LWe2GS7O8)
The "Fantasia" from this 1926 recording has already been uploaded here on its own. A comment underneath that upload asks "Where is the Fugue?" so the transcription is now presented here in its entirety. Sir Edward Elgar conducts the Royal Albert Hall Orchestra on this historic recording. (From a ‘Biddulph’ CD).

Pierne "March of the Little Fauns" – Ormandy conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFfazG_CVLw)

11-26-2011, 09:48 PM

well, I "borrowed" them also from the websites… and gathered all possible sources, then I just arranged them in a film order, or what I had thought to be … because my list is not identical with the "original" list, seen everywhere…. So I am not sure but some tracks could not be heared in the film, like some traditional music by Arsenije Jovanovic. I really don’t know where did that music had been played, but surely not in my "version" of the film I’d seen. So I think my real contribution is just making the list order of the songs and their timing… everything had been "borrowed" from whatever blogs, sites, and including audio excerpts directly from the film (with DVD Audio Extractor) and those tracks contains SFX because of that audio extraction of very low quality.

This Gavotte comes from the Sonata No. 6 in E major for Solo Violin. It was transcribed for full string orchestra by Sir Henry Wood and recorded in the 1950s by George Weldon and the London Symphony Orchestra on a Columbia LP (33SX1045).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ScfZ956zgJs
For the 1895 revival of "Swan Lake," composer/conductor Riccardo Drigo interpolated several new dances into the score. These were his own orchestrations of several charming Tchaikovsky piano pieces. The "Valse-Bluette" is one of them and it is played here by the Chicago Symphony under Morton Gould.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDx-kRbXoCU
This is one of 24 works for Violin and Piano in Cesar Cui’s "Kaleidoscope" collection. It is heard here in the sumptuous arrangement by Carmen Dragon, who conducts the Capitol Symphony Orchestra on this 1950s "Full Dimensional Stereo Sound" LP.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvyzT95zaVo
Many musicians have arranged the music for the ballet "Les Sylphides" and in 1962 Sir Malcolm Sargent followed in their footsteps by making his own orchestrations of the various Chopin piano pieces which make up the score. After conducting his own version at Covent Garden that year he immediately made this recording. From it we hear the final two numbers: the Waltz in C sharp minor and the ‘Grande Valse Brillante’ in E flat major

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NaT6OEWeTc
Leopold Stokowski conducts the National Philharmonic in Saint-Saens’s "Danse Macabre." The recording was made in 1975 with a specially constituted recording orchestra of top London players and freelance session musicians. Several months earlier, Stokowski had celebrated his 93rd birthday. The violin solo was played by Sydney Sax.(From an EMI Classics CD.)

I have several requests (in mp3, please):

Lens of Fire, can you re-up that?

All of the masterful music of Vaughan Williams is currently available on CD… it took years for many of the old EMI discs to appear (especially the double piano concerto). I think you could easily support his estate by purchasing these instead of asking for ALL the symphonies. The Adrian Bolt recordings remain my favorites and are under ten bucks.

The complete symphonies of Ralph Vaughn Williams? And the Tuba Concerto by the same composer?

And the complete piano concertos of Kabalevsky as well.

A lot of the links have long since died, and those above have caught my interest the most. If anyone feels free to re-up any others, that would be nice:)

Thank you, Gis revido, I love this thread.

Paganini’s "Moto Perpetuo" for Violin was orchestrated by Frederick Stock, conductor of the Chicago Symphony from 1905 to 1942. They play it here under Jean Martinon, their music director from 1963 to 1968, in a recording made in 1966. Note Stock’s clever quotations from Beethoven’s "Eroica" Symphony in this brilliant arrangement.

Revueltas "Sensemaya" (First Recording) – Stokowski conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YV0D0CiUXE&list=UUJbfiRvOlcTfHrbi98L9IZA&feature=plcp)
Silvestre Revueltas (1899-1940) was a Mexican composer whose most famous piece is "Sensemaya", a tone-pone depicting the ritual killing of a tropical snake. This vivid miniature tone-poem received its first recording in 1947 with Leopold Stokowski conducting his Symphony Orchestra. (An RCA 78rpm disc).

This was the first orchestration of "Pictures at an Exhibition" and was made by Mikhail Tushmalov, a pupil of Rimsky-Korsakov. It was not absolutely complete, since it omitted all but the first of the ‘Promenades’ as well as several of the ‘Pictures’. The ones that remain are ‘The Old Castle’, ‘Ballet of the Chicks’, ‘Samuel Goldenberg and Schmuyle’, ‘Market Place in Limoges’, ‘The Catacombs’, ‘Baba Yaga’ and ‘The Great Gate of Kiev’.This version was given its first performance in 1891 with Rimsky-Korsakov conducting. Its only recording to date has been by the Munich Philharmonic under Marc Andrae on the BASF label.

In this haunting version of Rachmaninov’s "Vocalise," the wordless female chorus of the Norman Luboff Choir is accompanied by the New Symphony Orchestra of London under Leopold Stokowski. The orchestral accompaniment was arranged by Walter Stott (he was called Wally Stott in the 1950s ‘Goon Show’ days on the radio) but after a visit to Scandinavia for a delicate operation in the 1970s he became Angela Morley. (From an RCA / BMG recording made in 1960).

Stokowski made several Bach arrangements for wind band, including the Chorale-Prelude "Wir glauben all’ an einen Gott." It is played here by the United States Marine Band and comes from a concert given in Cincinnati in 1998, Timothy W. Foley conducting.

This well-known piano piece here receives what is probably its most over-the-top orchestral arrangement. Sidney Torch (1908-1990) was a British pianist, conductor, arranger and composer of light music. He was particularly associated with the BBC Concert Orchestra and it is they who play this dazzling version of Liszt’s famous Rhapsody under Barry Wordsworth’s baton. (From a Carlton Classics CD made in 1995.)

This version of Bach’s famous Toccata and Fugue in D minor starts off with the organ, played by Leslie Pearson, but when the orchestra comes in the arrangement owes quite a lot to Stokowski’s transcription. It was made and conducted by Tutti Camarata (1913-2005) who began his musical career as a jazz trumpeter in New York. After World War II he became a composer and record producer. During the 1960s and ’70s he arranged and conducted a number of Decca/London popular classical LPs in ‘Phase 4 Stereo’ with the Kingsway Symphony Orchestra, so called because it was an ‘ad hoc’ band of top London musicians which recorded in the famous Kingsway Hall.

O Vos Omnes," part of the Roman Catholic Liturgy for Holy Week, was set for mixed choir by Pablo Casals in 1932. Leopold Stokowski arranged it for brass and it received its only recording (so far) by the Philip Jones Brass Ensemble on an Argo LP in 1979.

In this version of Liszt’s Concert Study in D flat, Douglas Gamley supplied an orchestral accompaniment to the piano original. The solo part is played by Abbey Simon, with Gamley himself conducting the Sinfonia of London on a 1958 stereo Columbia LP entitled "Philharmonic Pops."

Leopold Stokowski eloquently arranged the "Pastoral Symphony" (or "Shepherds Christmas Music") from Handel’s ‘Messiah’ for woodwinds and strings. It is beautifully played by the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, conductor Jose Serebrier, on a Naxos CD devoted to Stokowski Transcriptions.

In the tags it states it’s from the Fantasia soundtrack but that’s not the same recording. The conductor in the tags is also incorrect because it’s obviously not the same recording as on the Fantasia album. The Toxic Avenger page on IMDB isn’t too helpful about who the conductor is either.

Bach-Stokowski: Toccata and Fugue in D minor – Sir Andrew Davis conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GS88lWHvvGw&list=UUJbfiRvOlcTfHrbi98L9IZA&index=17&feature=plcp)
Leopold Stokowski’s orchestral transcription of Bach’s Toccata and Fugue for organ is probably the most famous of all Bach arrangements. It was splendidly played at the First Night of the 2000 Proms in London’s Royal Albert Hall by the BBC Symphony Orchestra. For this performance, Sir Andrew Davis followed in Stokowski’s footsteps by conducting without a baton. As will be seen, he clearly enjoyed the experience.

Stokowski "Traditional Slavic Christmas Music" – Serebrier conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVW0LU4M0T8&list=UUJbfiRvOlcTfHrbi98L9IZA&index=22&feature=plcp)
In his own notes to this recording, Jose Serebrier writes: "Stokowski’s own ‘Traditional Slavic Christmas Music’ is based on Ippolitov-Ivanov’s ‘In a Manger’ which in turn is based on a traditional Christmas hymn. Stokowski’s orchestration, which he first performed in 1933, interpolates string and brass choirs (no woodwinds in this score) and has a certain magic, and not suprisingly, an organ-like quality." (From a Naxos CD).

Bach (arr. Vaughan Williams) "Giant" Fugue – Leonard Slatkin conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xShPmy6Zo50&list=UUJbfiRvOlcTfHrbi98L9IZA&index=21&feature=plcp)
Ralph Vaughan Williams arranged Bach’s "Giant" Fugue (otherwise known as the Chorale Prelude "Wir glauben all’ an einen Gott") for strings. A former pupil of his, Arnold Foster, Music Master of Westminster School, simplified the string writing so as to make it easier for his students to play and received a co-credit on the score. Leonard Slatkin conducts the BBC Philharmonic in this splendid 1999 Chandos recording.

Mussorgsky "A Night on the Bare Mountain" (Choral Version) – Rozhdestvensky conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1sEpa89mSm4&list=UUJbfiRvOlcTfHrbi98L9IZA&index=18&feature=plcp)
This version of "A Night on the Bare Mountain" comes from Mussorgsky’s unfinished opera "The Fair at Sorochyntsi" (or "Sorochintsy Fair"). In the opera, it was intended as a dream sequence which incorporated parts for a solo baritone (sung here by David Wilson Johnson) and chorus (the BBC Singers and BBC Symphony Chorus). This performance comes from a Proms concert given in the Royal Albert Hall in 1981. It is sung in English, with the BBC Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gennadi Rozhdestvensky. Rimsky-Korsakov based his own purely orchestral edition of "Night on Bald Mountain" on this version of Mussorgsky’s music. (A BBC Radio Classics CD.)

Mussorgsky "Night on the Bare Mountain" – Original Version – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zR2P-5J-2MA&list=UUJbfiRvOlcTfHrbi98L9IZA&index=16&feature=plcp)
The familiar version of "Night on the Bare Mountain" is the work of Rimsky-Korsakov, who not only shortened Mussorgsky’s original score but also re-orchestrated it, added passages of his own, changed the harmonies, and largely re-composed the whole work. Mussorgsky’s own orchestral composition was never played in his lifetime, though he also made a choral version for interpolation in his opera "Sorochintsy Fair" (recently uploaded). We hear now the first recording of Mussorgsky’s original score in a performance by the London Philharmonic conducted by David Lloyd-Jones on a 1971 Philips LP. The sleeve notes state that the title on the manuscript is "St. John’s Night on the Bare Mountain" and that there are four sections to the music: (i) Assembly of the Witches; (ii) Satan’s Journey; (iii) Black Mass; (iv) Sabbath.

Handel "Love in Bath" – Beecham conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iqo8rWJUUQU&list=UUJbfiRvOlcTfHrbi98L9IZA&index=15&feature=plcp)
In 1945, Sir Thomas Beecham introduced a 45-minute ‘Balletic Entertainment’ he’d devised which was set in 18th century Bath. The score features his own delightful arrangements of assorted arias, choruses and dances in Handel’s operas. We hear two numbers – a Hornpipe, which ends with a flourish of ‘Rule Britannia’, and the ballet’s Finale in which Handel’s famous ‘Largo’ makes an appearance. This Seraphim LP dates from 1959.

Carl Stix "Playful Game" – Kostelanetz conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XqQLEQQWW2w&list=UUJbfiRvOlcTfHrbi98L9IZA&index=14&feature=plcp)
The notes to this 1970 Columbia LP states: "Carl Stix is one of the mystery men of music. He appears in no extant music encyclopedias in any accessible language. He was probably German. The rest is silence – except for a few delightful works such as the ‘Spielerei’ recorded here in all it pizzicato charm, as arranged by Eugene Ormandy." Googling reveals that this seems to have been the only piece by Stix ever published (it was his Opus 140!) though another composition, the Intermezzo from his ‘Dream Visions’, was recorded twice on old 78rpm discs by the Florentine Quartet. His ‘Spielerei’ (also known as ‘Child’s Play’) now makes its You Tube debut!

Fibich’s "Poeme" provided the melody for the popular 1930s song "My Moonlight Madonna." Andre Kostelanetz conducts his own orchestral version of the original on this old Columbia LP (with apologies for the ticks and scratches!)

Mussorgsky-Stokowski "A Night on Bare Mountain" – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMVxu7z06A8&list=UUJbfiRvOlcTfHrbi98L9IZA&index=5&feature=plcp)
Leopold Stokowski recorded his own version of "A Night on Bare Mountain" several times. This recording (on a Cala CD) dates from 1953 and is played by a specially-selected orchestra of New York musicians, including many from the New York Philharmonic. Stokowski based his orchestration on Rimsky-Korsakov’s edition of the score and used it in Walt Disney’s "Fantasia" (1940). In addition to Mussorgsky’s own original orchestral and choral versions, this piece has also been edited or arranged by Rene Leibowitz (and recorded by him) as well as Charles Gerhardt (his version was recorded by Sir Adrian Boult) and several others, including Gottfried von Einem and Henry Sopkin.

Rossini-Respighi "La Boutique Fantasque" – Sargent conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAAs9p9TBhw&list=UUJbfiRvOlcTfHrbi98L9IZA&index=4&feature=plcp)
Respighi selected and orchestrated an assortment of Rossini piano pieces for Diaghilev’s production of the ballet "La Boutique Fantasque" ("The Magic Toy Shop") in 1919. Sir Malcolm Sargent arranged and edited his own Concert Suite from the complete ballet score and we hear four numbers from the recording he made with the Royal Philharmonic on an LP first issued in 1962.

Percy Grainger "Country Gardens" – Carmen Dragon conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVDUk8-EEk8&list=UUJbfiRvOlcTfHrbi98L9IZA&index=3&feature=plcp)
This delightful arrangement by Carmen Dragon of one of Percy Grainger’s most popular pieces comes from a stereo LP entitled "Invitation to the Dance" issued in 1959. The orchestra is the Capitol Symphony.

Bach: Toccata and Fugue in D minor (orch. Sir Henry Wood) – Slatkin conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CVbuhkLjs4M&context=C3bd3176ADOEgsToPDskK861Z3OiXM6bpBhoy0bFJC )
Bach’s Toccata and Fugue in D minor was performed at the First Night of the 2004 Proms in two parts: the Toccata was played on the Albert Hall organ by Martin Neary, while the Fugue was given in Sir Henry Wood’s orchestration. The BBC Symphony was conducted by its then Chief Conductor, Leonard Slatkin.

Chopin "Funeral March" – Sir Henry Wood’s orchestration – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zM5aUh-FgI&context=C35d80c2ADOEgsToPDskIg0v-AjAoi_FFaIm3HcuIF)
The "Funeral March" (‘Marche Funebre’) from Chopin’s Piano Sonata No. 2 has been orchestrated by several musicians, including Elgar and Stokowski. Sir Henry Wood introduced his own version during the 1895 Proms. It was last heard at the Proms in 1943 under Basil Cameron’s direction. (Taken from a ‘Lyrita’ CD on which Nicholas Braithwaite conducts the London Philharmonic)

Gustav Holst originally scored Bach’s "Fugue a la Gigue" BWV 577 for wind band but later made another version for full symphony orchestra. That version is played here by the BBC Philharmonic under Leonard Slatkin on a 1999 Chandos CD.

Thank you! I have no great love for opera… but do like specific arias and orchestral pieces lifted from operas. I have heard some of these moments of Korngold from this. People in general seem to find it very beautiful- but there are still few recordings and still few stagings. There is a single DVD of one production, and I plan to watch that. This will at least give me a taste of something that has been out THERE for a long time. Thank you again.

Bach-Walton "Ah! How ephemeral" from ‘The Wise Virgins’ Suite
Bach-Walton "Ah! How ephemeral" from ‘The Wise Virgins’ Suite – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5xhylS4jqA&feature=g-user-u)
The complete ‘Wise Virgins’ Suite is already uploaded on You Tube, so here is just my favourite movement from it … the exciting "Ah! How ephemeral" from Bach’s Cantata No. 26 arr. by Walton. It’s one of several Cantata movements used in Frederick Ashton’s 1940 ballet featuring Margot Fonteyn. (From a Naxos CD.)

Bach orch. Cailliet "Little" Fugue – Fiedler conducts
Bach orch. Cailliet "Little" Fugue – Fiedler conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJhMjs1rwxU&feature=g-user-u)
Bach’s "Little" Fugue in G minor was orchestrated by Lucien Cailliet (1891-1985), a woodwind player and ‘house arranger’ for the Philadelphia Orchestra as well as being a conductor and composer in his own right. He made a great many arrangements, including one of Mussorgsky’s "Pictures at an Exhibition" commissioned in 1937 by Eugene Ormandy. The Bach transcription heard here is brilliantly played by the Boston Pops under Arthur Fielder and comes from an RCA CD of other Bach works.

Bach-Stokowski: Chorale from the ‘Easter Cantata’ – Jose Serebrier conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWr8V27_t24&feature=g-user-u)
Stokowski’s many Bach Transcriptions include this stirring orchestral version of the Chorale "Jesus Christus, Gottes Sohn" from the ‘Easter Cantata.’ It is played here by the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, conductor Jose Serebrier, on a Naxos release

Debussy "La Cathedrale Engloutie" (‘The Engulfed Cathedral’) – Sir Henry Wood’s orchestration
Debussy "La Cathedrale Engloutie" (‘The Engulfed Cathedral’) – Sir Henry Wood’s orchestration – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4UyUCbqcId0&feature=g-user-u)
Sir Henry Wood’s transcription of Debussy’s famous piano prelude dates from 1919 when he first introduced it at one of the Proms Concerts which still bear his name today. His scoring requires a large orchestra that includes a gong, tubular and mushroom bells, two harps and organ. Wood made his version as a memorial tribute to Debussy who had died the previous year. (From a ‘Lyrita’ CD on which Nicholas Braithwaite conducts the London Philharmonic.)

Brahms "A Rose Breaks Into Bloom" – Ormandy conducts
Brahms "A Rose Breaks Into Bloom" – Ormandy conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LrTK67ogvg8&feature=g-user-u)
Brahms’s song "Es ist ein’ Ros’ entsprungen" was arranged for string orchestra by Reginald Jacques and recorded by the Philadelphia Orchestra under Eugene Ormandy on a 1972 LP.

Mussorgsky-Stokowski "Great Gate of Kiev" – Kunzel conducts
Mussorgsky-Stokowski "Great Gate of Kiev" – Kunzel conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUsFoFX9w6Q&feature=g-user-u)
Leopold Stokowski was conductor of the Cincinnati Orchestra from 1909-1912. Erich Kunzel paid tribute by recording a number of Stokowski’s transcriptions in the 1990s and his selection concluded with ‘The Great Gate of Kiev,’ the final number in Mussorgsky’s "Pictures at an Exhibition." Stokowski’s score provided an ‘ad lib’ optional organ part right at the end, so Kunzel added it in, though it’s only just audible over the Cininnati Orchestra at full bast!

Chopin "Fantasie-Impromptu" – Carmen Dragon conducts
Chopin "Fantasie-Impromptu" – Carmen Dragon conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gk9-WnfKVyw&feature=g-user-u)
Chopin’s "Fantasie-Impromptu" in C# minor is here brilliantly realised by conductor / arranger Carmen Dragon and the Hollywood Bowl Symphony on a 1950s Capitol recording.

Bach-Stokowski "Come, Sweet Death" (‘Komm, susser Tod’) – Orchestral version – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jc2hjkMmtv4&feature=g-user-u)
J. S. Bach’s "Komm, susser Tod" is taken from Schemelli’s Musical Song-Book of 1736. Stokowski’s transcription has the melody played twice, first on the strings and then by the full orchestra. He made this recording in 1958 with his own specially selected symphony orchestra of New York musicians.

Byrd "Pavane and Gigue" – Stokowski orchestration
Byrd "Pavane and Gigue" – Stokowski orchestration – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aatet8hOLVk&feature=g-user-u)
William Byrd’s ‘Pavane’ (subtitled ‘The Earl of Salisbury’ from "Parthenia") and ‘A Gigue’ (from ‘The Fitzwilliam Virginal Book’) are two baroque clavichord pieces. Leopold Stokowski combined them into a gorgeously coloured orchestral arrangement which is played here by the BBC Philharmonic under Matthias Bamert on a beautifully recorded Chandos CD.

Haydn "Andante Cantabile" – Stokowski conducts
Haydn "Andante Cantabile" – Stokowski conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFxtthSedyM&feature=g-user-u)
This little piece is also known as Haydn’s "Serenade" and comes from one of his string quartets. Stokowski arranged it for strings, clarinet, flute and oboe and originally played it under the title "18th Century Dance." This recording was made in 1975 when he was 92 years old. The National Philharmonic was a ‘recording orchestra’ of top London players and this track comes from a PRT CD.

Beethoven "Moonlight Sonata" – ‘Adagio’ – Pennario & Dragon
Beethoven "Moonlight Sonata" – ‘Adagio’ – Pennario & Dragon – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bxYtSXVTnIE&feature=g-user-u)
The most famous of Beethoven’s solo piano sonata movements is here given mini-concerto treatment with the addition of an orchestral accompaniment. Leonard Pennario is the soloist, with the Hollywood Bowl Symphony Orchestra conducted by Carmen Dragon, in a late 1950s ‘Capitol Full Dimensional Stereo Sound’ recording.

Gy???rgy S???ndor is best known to music lovers and record collectors as a gifted pianist and champion of the music of his fellow Hungarian B???la Bart???k, but he was also one of the most important piano pedagogues of the later twentieth century. As a piano teacher at the University of Michigan and the Juilliard School, his students included Malcolm Bilson, Barbara Nissman, and H???l???ne Grimaud. S???ndor carried on the practician-pedagogue tradition passed down from Bart???k, who was his most important piano teacher, and Zolt???n Kod???ly, with whom he studied composition at the Liszt Royal Conservatory in Budapest. S???ndor had played throughout Europe, Asia and America by the time he made his Carnegie Hall debut in 1939, and he settled in the United States shortly after that triumphant appearance. He had an enormous repertoire, but he is best known as a champion of Bart???k’s piano music, swimming against the artistic tide at a time when the music was considered too modern, too difficult to play and listen to, too risky for concert presenters — and doing a great deal to reverse the public perception of Bart???k’s music in America in tandem with the efforts of fellow Hungarian expatriates Frigyes (Fritz) Reiner and Antal Dor???ti. S???ndor’s career as a performer exceeded an astonishing seven decades in duration.

The present release returns to circulation two of Sandor’s great recordings: the complete piano music of Zolt???n K???daly, originally released on Candide in the mid-1970s, and "Bart???k and the Baroque," a collection of Bart???k’s baroque transcriptions issued on Vox Cum Laude in the late 1970s.

Debussy "La Cathedrale Engloutie" (‘The Engulfed Cathedral’) – Sir Henry Wood’s orchestration – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4UyUCbqcId0)
Chopin "Funeral March" – Sir Henry Wood’s orchestration – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zM5aUh-FgI)

The conductor Sir Henry Wood was an adept of grand orchestration and continued in this activity after such indulgences had ceased to be fashionable.

The famous Bach Toccata and Fugue in a free-ranging transcription produced in 1929 manages to be teutonic and gargantuan yet finds room for fine romantic detail indebted to Rimsky-Korsakov’s fantasy operas.

The Chopin Funeral March is for large orchestra with bells and organ. It goes rather well and this version was first played in 1907 to mark the death of Joseph Joachim. This is a typically sonorous orchestration and it is sonorously played and recorded. It would be interesting to compare it with the orchestrations made by Stokowski and Elgar; the latter, it will be remembered, also orchestrated several Bach organ works. The wide-ranging Lyrita recording is something to be relished from the measured emergence into virtual silence to the saturated rise to protesting grief. Enigmatically it is both confessional and bellowing. The style is grand and no mistake; Hollywood sentimentality has nothing on this.

Xaver Scharwenka (brother of Philipp Scharwenka) had his Polish Dance No. 3 (one of a piano set of 12) orchestrated by Wood in 1919, the year of Polish independence also celebrated in Elgar’s Polonia. It is as light on its toes as the use of the grandest of grand orchestras permits and there’s certainly some delicate texturing.

Granados’s Spanish Dance No. 4 in G is a reminder of Wood’s regard for the Spanish composer. When Granados and his wife died after the torpedoing of the steamer ???Sussex??? in 1916, Wood played the completed part of the Granados???s major orchestral work Dante and Virgil. Here we stand at the more frivolous end of the scale with an orchestration that emphasises the Spanishry – complete with castanets. As in the Chopin the notated portamento is distinctive and very much of its time.

After this comes another funeral march – clearly Wood liked them and he did them well. This time it???s Grieg’s March for Richard Nordraak. The treatment preserves Grieg’s distinctive folk lisp but overall it???s another weightily expressive piece.

Debussy’s Cath???drale engloutie was more famously orchestrated by Stokowski but before that it had been given the orchestral treatment by Henri B???sser. Lewis Foreman plausibly speculates that, given its date (1919), it was intended as a memorial for Debussy’s death in 1918. It’s good to hear Wood, the magician of instrumentation, handling this piece with kid gloves and magically intensifying the impressionistic textures.

Rachmaninov could never escape the fame of his Prelude in C sharp minor op. 3 no. 2. Part of the ‘curse’ was a slew of orchestrators anxious to capitalise on the work’s success. Wood’s version was heard at the Queen’s Hall promenades on 20 September 1913 and he recorded it acoustically in 1915. There is about it something of the funeral cort???ge again. Wood every time succumbs to the stormily monumental if offered even a glimmer of encouragement.

It would be good to find a list of all the orchestrations of Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition. Lewis Foreman reports that the first was by an obscure pupil of Rimsky-Korsakov, one Mikhail Tushmalov whose version dates from 1891; are we quite sure that this is not a nom de plume for Henry Wood who was given to that sort of thing. In any event the Tushmalov version was played by Wood after his own had been launched. Wood had been encouraged to tackle the orchestration by Rosa Newmarch and completed it in 1915. His version elides the promenades that separate the movements in the Ravel and in the original. Wood went so far as to withdraw his own score which is a pity because it has many strengths and is well worth getting to know. The highlights include the grand guignol of The Gnome with its rattle and nightmare. The Old Castle is more suave than the Ravel – one misses the saxophone. Tuileries is more pointillist-delicate than the Ravel with the solo violin playing a chuckling role. Bydlo has a more funereal tread and effect than the Ravel. The Ballet of the unatched chicks is inventively done with more woodwind charm than the Ravel. Goldenburg and Schmuyle has its pleasures including the strange woodwind chatter at 1:02 but overall is lacklustre by comparison with the Ravel. The chittering Limoges is similar to the Ravel. Catacombae is full of suitably mortuary effects. Bab Yaga’s Hut on Chicken Legs is another example of the sort of horror which Wood loved – he seems to have loved full-on horror rather than the lightly spooky. This movement recalls at times Night on the Bare Mountain. It ends with an eleven bar episode for the mushroom bells which do a creditable job of evoking Russian cathedral bells before the crash of The Great Gate of Kiev in which Wood’s phrasing differs noticeably from that of Ravel. Also at 2:00 the introduction to the pealing bell evocation is more magical than in the Ravel.

As expected then, it’s swings and roundabouts but there is plenty here to fascinate and please. The additional steeliness and grandiloquence that Wood brings is well worth encountering and that 32 foot organ pedal for The Gate registers unmistakably.

Who but Lyrita would give us such a valuable collection and annotate it in such princely detail at the hands of Lewis Foreman?

An enjoyable collection shedding new light on Henry Wood.

Unfortunately, the Previn recording above has multiple problems including mistitled and incomplete tracks. So, as promised, here’s my own rip of Charles Dutoit’s equally highly regarded interpretation. Ignore my miserable comments in the earlier post – I don’t know why I took a downer on it – this is a superlative recording with fantastic sound! It’s a very elegant and classical reading of the score I suppose; less overtly theatrical than some, but sweepingly symphonic.

From the Gramophone review:

It is astonishing to recall that five years after the premi???re of Swan Lake, one of the greatest of all Russian ballets, and of Tchaikovsky???s three full-length ballets the one with the greatest number of memorable tunes, the composer wrote to his editor: ???To save this music from sinking into oblivion, I would like to make it into a concert suite modelled on Delibes??? published both as a symphonic score and as a transcription for four hands.??? The original transcription by the pianist Eduard Langer is heard on this recording with piano duet versions of concert suites from The Sleeping Beauty, commissioned from Rachmaninov and Ziloti, though later corrected by the composer himself, and from The Nutcracker, transcribed by Stepan Esipoff.

I have a very obscure request. As always, lossless (FLAC or WAV, are my preferences).

Heard it on the radio a few years ago. Unfortunately, I was not able to find out which it was — it was one of these pieces:

ANONYMOUS: Suite, from Livre de St. Aphrodise [Beziers, @1735]
JEAN-DOMINIQUE PASQUET: Notturno for Trumpet and Organ.

Pretty sure it was the second. I remember doign a search, and could not find a CD, or a place that sells it. But it is on CD, as the host said — it’s just very rare.

Dear S.

Yes, I agree with your listing here. I’m a British (classical) Music nut, and hope to encounter a few others on this site. Let’s show these Continentals that Britain can mix it with the best (by the way, I’m Australian so no bias here!)

Recently purchased Moeran’s "Lost" Symphony (No. 2) – spruced up by Martin Yates. For all Moeran fans I recommend taking a listen. I can upload if anyone is interested.

Also, I enjoy most of Benjamin Britten’s music – about as close to a genius as non-Europeans are allowed to be!!

And I have quite a bit of Alwyn’s stuff which has a distinctively ‘English’ sound.

As I type this I’m listening to Janet Baker’s recording of Elgar’s ‘Sea Pictures’ – wonderful singing (sigh). I’m also bowled over by Elgar’s Dream of Gerontius – the ending is quite luverly!

Rule Britannia!!!

The majority of my classical collection is early 20th Century British… especially Vaughan Williams and Finzi. I investigated Alwyn many years ago and found only ‘his favorite’ work The Concerto For Harp lovely. Britten: ergh. But Bridge, some Howells (especially the orchestral/strings), Butterworth, Walter Leigh, Sainton (The Island), Walton, Bax (NOT those symphonies but his work for piano and work for piano & orchestra), and a few other lesser knowns.

Seems to me we have very similar tastes. I’m collecting Howells at the moment: I recommend his sequence on ‘The B’s’ – just as good as Elgar’s Enigma variations, I think. And, of course, Howell’s Hymnus Paradisi is sheer Heaven (!) Just lately I purchased Vaughan Williams’s song cycle ‘On Wenlock Edge’ – quite exquisite (the version with Haitink and Ian Bostridge as the tenor is exceptionable) Walton, too, is a favourite of mine: Sinfonia Concertante with Eric Parkin is excellent. And Tony Palmer’s film on Walton, ‘At the Haunted End of the Day’ is available on Amazon if you’re a fan. Yes, I agree, Bax’s symphonies are an ‘acquired’ taste, although the lento in Symphony No. 3 can hold it’s own with most. Most of Bax’s tone poems are quite more-ish.
As for Britten, I’m impressed with his Cello Symphony (Rostropovich soloist) and, of course, the War Requiem, which must be one of the great works of 20th century music.

I have a cat named Bliss.

Bridge’s The Sea is nice, but his Enter Spring (a Rhapsody) just blows the roof off! His solo piano work is nice. Naxos offers two discs. It is sad that so few British composers indulged in the piano.

Of course Ralph Vaughan Williams’ Concerto for Two Pianos (the EMI version with Adrian Boult conducting, since NOTHING else compares) remains STUNNING.

———- Post added at 03:55 PM ———- Previous post was at 03:41 PM ———-

Keep the faith!!!

Can’t stand Elgar- except his Sospori (sp?). Too old fashioned.

Howells’ MISSA SABRINENIS is a fun slog. The jazzy soprano bits; and its history of the first performance is a hoot: the conductor & orchestra had to stop because they got LOST. It was deemed ‘unperformable’ after that. But I have the Chandos recording so they finally figured it out. His ELEGY FOR SOLO VIOLA, STRING QUARTET and STRING ORCHESTRA rips your heart out in its plaintive misery. But Howells is known for that sort of work. That’s why the discovery of his perky & much enjoyable orchestral work many years ago was such a great & unexpected find.

After reading Gerald Finzi’s latest biography years ago, I wrote (did not email) the author on the excellence of this book. She had even met the man at one time. His great friendship with RVW (the Finzi house was always filled with cats and there was only one clock. It was in the kitchen, and wrong). You get insight into the man and insight into his work and its gestation.

Although I got several versions The Yellow River Concerto (a rather feeble-minded arrangement of the original vocal work for piano and orchestra, which only succeeds to sound live a heavily diluted Chinese-tinged Rachmaninov), including the one you want (but in a different coupling) I definitely recommend the original!

Hi Wimpel, I agree this 1995 issue is the best version of the Yellow River and I too have it on CD. You may not know, since it is not translated into English, but the inside front of the booklet has a signed note by Chou En-lai [now written as Zhou Enlai], the first Prime Minister of communist China under Chairman Mao, saying that the composer’s intention in writing this powerful peace of music is to try and unify and encourage the Chinese to act against the Japanese invaders.

Tchaikovsky / H. Hanke : Marche Slave Op. 31 (for solo piano) (VBR V0 mp3)
Tchaikovsky-Hanke__Marche Slave, Op31.mp3 (http://www.mediafire.com/?ujrs8111pnbkasn)

reviews of divine art dda25093 Tchaikovsky Transcriptions (http://www.divineartrecords.com/CD/rev25093.htm)

Written in just five days in November 1876, the "Marche Slave" is one of Tchaikovsky’s most rousing works. Built on Serbian tunes and on the Russian National Anthem "God Save the Tsar", the March created a bedlam of enthusiasm at its premiere in the same month and year, and this induced the composer to write a version for solo piano, also in 1876. The transcription recorded here is by one H. Hanke and was published in Russia about 1904. Unfortunately, we know nothing about this person, not even whether it was a man or a woman, but what can be ascertained is that H. Hanke was a true virtuoso. The piano version of this famous piece is a staggering conception and it does not in any way spare the performer the difficulty and the stamina required to bring it off.

Mussorgsky / Peter Breiner : Bydlo
Mussorgsky "Bydlo" (‘Pictures at an Exhibition’) – Peter Breiner’s orchestration – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqBCUunaTtE)
There are over 30 symphony orchestra arrangements of ‘Pictures at an Exhibition,’ including Ravel’s, but one of the most recent is also one of the most over-the-top! It makes the versions by Sir Henry Wood and Leopold Stokowski sound positively ascetic. It’s by the Slovak conductor/composer Peter Breiner and here’s a ‘sampler’ of his scoring: the movement entitled "Bydlo" depicting a Polish ox-wagon. Breiner himself conducts the New Zealand Symphony on this splendidly recorded CD for Naxos.

Ippolitov-Ivanov "In the Manger" (arr. Stokowski) – Bamert conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojCiDGU50d4)
Mikhail Ippolitov-Ivanov (1859-1935) arranged an old Russian carol for choir and piano and this in turn was orchestrated for brass and strings by Leopold Stokowski. He published it as ‘Traditional Slavic Christmas Music,’ though for the recording made by Matthias Bamert, his one-time Assistant Conductor, the carol’s title was reinstated. We hear the strings and brass of the BBC Philharmonic in this recording by Chandos.

Bless This House’ – Carmen Dragon conducts
‘Bless This House’ – Carmen Dragon conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWrlEOOAXV8)
This celebrated song, with words by Helen Taylor and music by May Brahe, dates from 1927. In this 1959 recording, made in EMI’s Abbey Road Studio 1, London, Carmen Dragon conducts the Royal Philharmonic in his own purely orchestral arrangement. Presumably for contractual reasons, the orchestra was designated the Capitol Symphony, since it was on the ‘Capitol’ label that the LP was originally released. (With all due acknowledgements to the ‘Angel’ CD entitled ‘America the Beautiful’ from which this track comes.)

Mussorgsky "Capriccio" (‘Pictures from the Crimea’) – Geoffrey Simon conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8IHl85yNq4)
The ‘Pictures from the Crimea’ are three of Mussorgsky’s piano pieces as orchestrated by Walter Goehr. The third of them, the "Capriccio" heard here, is one of two ‘Reminiscences’ of a visit that Mussorgsky made to the Crimea region of Southern Russia in 1879. In this colourful recording, Geoffrey Simon conducts the Philharmonia (With all due acknowledgements to Cala Records.)

Shostakovich "Tea for Two" (‘Tahiti Trot’) – Sinaisky conducts
Shostakovich "Tea for Two" (‘Tahiti Trot’) – Sinaisky conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYJUJ_qzVWY)
After Shostakovich and Nikolai Malko had listened to an old 78rpm disc of Vincent Youman’s "Tea for Two" in 1927, Malko bet Dmitri 100 roubles that he couldn’t come up with an orchestration of the song, entirely from memory, in less than an hour. Shostakovich went into the next room and returned 45 minutes later, having made his own orchestration, and duly won the bet. In its new guise, the piece was called ‘Tahiti Trot’ and here it is, as played at the 1997 Proms by the BBC Philharmonic under Vassily Sinaisky.

Mussorgsky ‘Night on Bare Mountain’ – Gottfried von Einem’s edition
Mussorgsky ‘Night on Bare Mountain’ – Gottfried von Einem’s edition – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkfTei9NJe8)
Mussorgsky’s ‘A Night on the Bare Mountain’ exists in several versions. There’s the composer’s own original orchestral score, as well as the choral version he used in his opera ‘Sorochintsy Fair.’ Rimsky-Korsakov’s edition has been the most widely played and recorded over the years, with Stokowski’s version, familiar from Walt Disney’s "Fantasia," being a close runner-up. Rene Leibowitz made his own arrangement with a completely new ending, while Charles Gerhardt heavily edited the Rimsky score and engaged Sir Adrian Boult to record his arrangement for Reader’s Digest. All these different versions are on You Tube.
The edition heard here, prepared by the Austrian composer Gottfried von Einem (1918-1996) "offers an alternative working of material that had undergone a number of changes at the hands of its original composer, and had, therefore, been left in some final disorder." (From the notes to the Marco Polo CD on which Alfred Walter conducts the North German Radio Orchestra, the Mussorgsky track being uploaded here with all due acknowledgements.) It starts off in a familiar vein, using the Rimsky score as its basis, but towards the end Gottfried von Einem’s imagination takes over … and we don’t get the usual quiet ending!

Bach-Stokowski ‘Mein Jesu’ – Tortelier conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-XqBgQ6CUo4)
Stokowski’s arrangement for strings of Bach’s song ‘Mein Jesu’ sounds particularly beautiful in this performance, due to the acoustics where it was played. It was recorded in Liverpool Cathedral by the strings of the BBC Philharmonic under Yan Pascal Tortelier in July 1993 and broadcast the following December. It is one of Stokowski’s simplest yet most affecting transcriptions.

Stokowski’s catalogue of orchestral transcriptions of works originally written for other mediums runs to about 200 titles. One of these arrangements is of a song for voice and piano by Henri Duparc entitled "Extase." This performance dates from 1972 and is played by the London Symphony Orchestra under the 90-year-old Stokowski on a Cala CD of French music.
On your pale breast my heart is sleeping
In a slumber sweet like death
Exquisite death, death perfumed
By the breath of my beloved
On your pale breast my heart is sleeping

Purcell ‘Dido and Aeneas’ Suite – Ormandy conducts
Purcell ‘Dido and Aeneas’ Suite – Ormandy conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_EgtY1b_yM)
Purcell’s opera "Dido and Aeneas" provided music for a sumptuous Orchestral Suite arranged in 1939 by Lucien Cailliet, a distinguished woodwind player in the Philadelphia Orchestra as well as its resident ‘house arranger.’ Cailliet’s Suite was recorded on 78s that year under Eugene Ormandy’s direction, so the sound is very historic indeed. In addition, the playing style is totally unlike what we hear today in ‘authentic performances’ of baroque music on ancient instruments, so please be warned! Even so, some listeners may think it is worth resurrecting here. The Suite begins with the opera’s Overture (a Lento followed by an Allegro moderato) and concludes with ‘When I am laid in Earth’ at about 10:40.

Weber’s ‘Invitation to the Dance,’ originally for solo piano, is best known in an orchestration by Berlioz. However, the conductor Felix Weingartner made an even more colourful arrangement in which the two main themes are frequently combined in counterpoint. Weingartner’s own 78s of it are uploaded on You Tube but here is a splendidly vivid 1960s stereo recording made by the Bournemouth Symphony under Walter Susskind. This music was used for the ballet "Le Spectre de la Rose" in which a young girl, asleep in a chair and cradling a rose, imagines that it comes to life in the form of a virile young man who leaps in through her open window and dances with her while she dreams. Stills of various dancers are used, including Nijinsky, who created the Rose.

Julian Herbage was an English musicologist with special interest in 17th & 18th century music from which he prepared many suites and editions of his own. He also presented ‘Music Magazine’ on BBC radio and during the early 1950s invited Stokowski to appear on the programme. The Maestro repaid the compliment by recording for an early Capitol stereo LP this little "Hornpipe" from Herbage’s string orchestra Suite of Music from Purcell’s opera ‘King Arthur.’

Two Dutch Tunes of the 16th Century – Kindler conducts
Two Dutch Tunes of the 16th Century – Kindler conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJIRkY-d87I)
The Dutch virtuoso cellist Hans Kindler abandoned the cello for a conducting career after the First World War and in 1931 founded the National Symphony Orchestra of Washington, D.C. For his debut concert with them he played three 16th Century Dutch Tunes which he’d orchestrated. Ten years later he recorded two of them: "In Times of Stress" and "See How Strong This Struggling Nation." This old 1941 78rpm disc was re-released some years ago, along with others from the same period (their copyright having long expired) on a Biddulph CD, in transfers by Mark Obert-Thorn (WHL 063).

Bach’s "Little" Fugue in G minor was orchestrated by Lucien Cailliet (1891-1985), a woodwind player and ‘house arranger’ for the Philadelphia Orchestra as well as being a conductor and composer in his own right. He made a great many arrangements, including one of Mussorgsky’s "Pictures at an Exhibition" commissioned in 1937 by Eugene Ormandy. The Bach transcription heard here is brilliantly played by the Boston Pops under Arthur Fielder and comes from an RCA CD of other Bach works.

Debussy "La Cathedrale Engloutie" (‘The Engulfed Cathedral’) – Sir Henry Wood’s orchestration – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4UyUCbqcId0)
Sir Henry Wood’s transcription of Debussy’s famous piano prelude dates from 1919 when he first introduced it at one of the Proms Concerts which still bear his name today. His scoring requires a large orchestra that includes a gong, tubular and mushroom bells, two harps and organ. Wood made his version as a memorial tribute to Debussy who had died the previous year. (From a ‘Lyrita’ CD on which Nicholas Braithwaite conducts the London Philharmonic.)

Rachmaninoff "Tarantella" (Suite No. 2) arr. for Piano and Orchestra – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfiPWtaH1sU)
This "Tarantella" comes from what might be called Rachmaninoff’s 5th Piano Concerto! In its original form it is the Suite No. 2 for Two Pianos but we hear it in a transcription for Solo Piano and Orchestra. This arrangement was made by Lee Hoiby (1926-2011) and recorded by him in 1968 with the London Symphony Orchestra conducted by Lawrence Foster. (From a ‘Desto’ LP; also reissued on a ‘Citadel CD’.)

Stravinsky "Happy Birthday" (‘Greeting Prelude’) – Slatkin conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SzLscHE4WjA)
In 2000, the BBC Symphony Orchestra celebrated its 70th anniversary with a special concert at the Barbican Hall in London. Leonard Slatkin had just been appointed its new Chief Conductor and he marked the occasion by introducing and conducting Stravinsky’s version of "Happy Birthday."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7t56lxm5nzY
Stokowski recorded most of his Bach arrangements on old 78rpm discs but with the advent of the stereo LP he re-recorded many of them in sumptuous sound. This example dates from 1960 when he returned to conduct the Philadelphia Orchestra after nearly 20 years absence. It comes from a complete set of Stokowski’s stereo recordings for Columbia.

Tchaikovsky ‘Andante Cantabile’ – Sargent conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdhtHiyOV4Y)
Tchaikovsky’s ‘Andante Cantabile’ from his String Quartet No. 1 moved Tolstoy to tears at its first performance. It is played here by the BBC Symphony under Sir Malcolm Sargent. It comes from a 1959 recording and is heard in an arrangement for string orchestra by Adolf Schmid.

Bach-Klemperer ‘Bist du bei mir’ – Slatkin conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmDf7ehQ-Bc)
Otto Klemperer arranged this song for strings in 1935. It comes from the Anna Magdalena Bach Notebook, though modern scholarship attributes the melody not to Bach but to an opera called ‘Diomedes’ by Gottfried Stolzel that was first performed in 1718. It is played here by the BBC Symphony under its then Chief Conductor, Leonard Slatkin.

Handel-Elgar: Overture in D minor – Sargent conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mAyPHCyNsg)
This music occurs twice in Handel’s catalogue: as the Overture to the second of his twelve Chandos Anthems and again in the fifth of his Six Concerti Grossi of 1734. Elgar orchestrated it in 1923 and the recording heard here, played by Sir Malcolm Sargent and the Royal Philharmonic, dates from 1959 and is thus out-of-copyright under the 50-year expiry rule (UK / EU) which governs sound recordings. Also out of copyright is Handel’s music, while Elgar’s went out of copyright in 2005.

MOUSSORGSKY: Pictures at an Exhibition; RESPIGHI: Pines of Rome BBC Symphony & Chorus/ Leonard Slatkin; BBC Wales/ Tadaaki Otaka-Warner 61954-58 min

Some years ago, Leonard Slatkin took up the Gorchakov arrangement of Moussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition because it is more Slavic than the standard Ravel orchestration, and then he was stimulated to check out other orchestrations. The resulting suite, combining arrangements by Lawrence Leonard, Vladimir Ashkenazy, Lucien Cailliet, Sergei Gorchakov, Leonidas Leonardi, Sir Henry Wood, Michail Tushmalov, Leopold Stokowski, and closing out with Ravel’s ‘Baba Yaga’ and ‘Great Gate of Kiev’, Slatkin played often to great acclaim. Although he never recorded it commercially, it was included in the six-disc St Louis set celebrating Slatkin’s 17-year run with the orchestra.

Since then he has had second thoughts on the subject, stimulated in no small part by Edward Johnson, doyen of the Leopold Stokowski Society, who urged Slatkin to take a look at the wildly over-the-top ‘Great Gate’ by the Australian composer and arranger Douglas Gamley. It calls for organ and men’s chorus, along with a huge consort of brass and bells. No sooner did Johnson send a copy of it to Slatkin–it was recorded by Charles Gerhardt early on for Reader’s Digest– then Slatkin Emailed him back, "Love the Gamley … Find the score!" From such acorns do mighty oaks grow.

Slatkin has retained only one section from the earlier montage, Cailliet’s ‘Ballet of the Unhatched Chicks’. A rundown follows, including comparisons with other recordings where possible:

Promenade 1 (Ellison). The name may sound Welsh, but Ellison is an American, a structural engineer by trade, born in 1957 and currently violinist in the Fort Worth Orchestra. In his transcription each section is styled after a different composer, ranging from Scheherazade and Die Meistersinger to the 1812 (though his orchestration does not include a part for cannon…!) In the opening ‘Promenade’ he emulates Britten’s Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra, introducing the choirs one by one beginning with the percussion–the familiar theme is first heard in the tubular bells. From here he works his way up to full orchestra and even remembers to pay homage to Purcell’s Abdelazar–listen for the nattering bassoon beginning at 0:40–"not the same phrase used by Britten" says annotator David Nice, though the part at 0:44 certainly does sound familiar! This seems to me an interesting if not entirely convincing effect; I’d like to hear what he does with the other pictures!

Gnomus (Gorchakov). Here at least we’re on familiar ground, as Gorchakov’s darkly Slavic Pictures has been recorded a couple of times, first by Kurt Masur (Teldec; May/June 1992) and later by Karl Anton Rickenbacher (RCA; July/Aug 2002), the latter unfortunately padded out with commentary by Peter Ustinov. Gorchakov makes of Hartmann’s gnome a far more sinister figure than Ravel, and Slatkin’s broad tempos only heighten the awkward movement and malevolent character of the little fellow. But the bass line comes across better with Masur–even more so the deep-throated gong-and actually I like Rickenbacher best of all once you program out Ustinov’s insufferable ramblings. (Or we could have Slatkin record the whole thing.)

Promenade 2 (Goehr). Goehr of course is far better known as a conductor; but he also compiled a Pictures that adds a vibraphone to the usual mix of percussion (you won’t hear it here). This he put together for use by smaller orchestras, and the introspective mood of strings, winds, and muted brass, beginning with solo viola, makes for a calming influence after the fearsome gnome’s antics.

The Old Castle (Naoumoff). I dismissed the Naoumoff as a turgid mess when Alcar brought it out a few years back (July/Aug 2002). It is ostensibly a sort of piano concerto, but the orchestra has all the good tunes, with the piano pretty much relegated to commentary. Naoumoff eschews Ravel’s familiar tenor sax in favor of alto flute for the amorous bard; but here the piano is so far forward you can hardly hear the flute. Worse, it sounds like a cocktail lounge piano. You might want to skip this track.

Promenade 3 & Tuileries (Van Keulen). No, I never heard of him either, but this wind band arrangement by the bass clarinetist Van Keulen–born in 1943, same as me–shows what can be done without strings or percussion, stark Russian brooding in the ‘Promenade’ contrasting effectively with the Gallic delicacy of the Tuileries gardens and children at play. Perhaps some of our more enterprising wind ensembles might look into this one.

Bydlo (Ashkenazy). The Russian-born Ashkenazy wanted to return the Pictures to its Slavic roots and also correct the numerous mistakes that cropped up in the Rimsky edition and were dutifully recreated by Ravel. In ‘Bydlo’ Moussorgsky intended to have the Polish oxcart fortissimo from the start. I approve of Ravel having it slowly approach, wheel past, and fade into the distance, but Ashkenazy will have none of it, and he makes that clear right off the bat with four French horns blaring away.

Just over 13 years ago, on 19 August 1991 to be precise, Leonard Slatkin conducted the Philharmonia Orchestra in a personal choice of orchestrations for each of Mussorgsky’s Pictures. For this birthday concert, he returned to the idea and, apart from repeating Lucien Cailliet’s ‘Ballet of the Unhatched Chicks’, he chose different orchestrations this time, no fewer than four had been written since Slatkin’s first Prom set.
Slatkin started with a brief spoken introduction comparing various composers’ attempts at orchestrating Mussorgsky’s solo piano original, none of the excerpts being from the complete performance to follow. The first orchestration, by Byrwec Ellison, arrestingly had the exhibition-visitor portrayed first by percussion and interpolated other music as a counterpoint, a snatch of Purcell that Britten had taken for his Young Person’s Guide. It also brought a nice symmetry with the final orchestration, by Douglas Gamley, who returned to banks of percussion (as well as men’s chorus and organ) in ‘The Great Gate of Kiev’.
In between we had fresh perspectives on not only each picture but also the promenades in between, including the one (No.5) that Ravel omitted. This was provided by Lawrence Leonard, who kept Mussorgsky’s original piano line, overlaying it with shifting orchestration. Sergei Gorchakov provided the darker-hued Gnomus (it was Kurt Masur’s championing of Gorchakov’s orchestration that originally alerted Slatkin to the myriad possibilities for Pictures), while Bulgarian Emil Naoumoff re-introduced the piano as counterpoint in The Old Castle to an alto flute (itself in marked contrast to Ravel’s alto saxophone). Ashkenazy followed Mussorgsky in a way that Ravel did not in ‘Bydlo’ by having the main theme fortissimo to start, and after Cailliet’s “irresistible” (to quote Slatkin) evocation of the unhatched chicks, came our very own Henry Wood in ‘Two Polish Jews’, typically playing up contrasts, although he was using Rimsky-Korsakov’s discredited version, Mussorgsky’s original not actually appearing until 1931. Ravel, in 1922, also used the Rimsky-Korsakov edition, as did another orchestrator from that same year, Czech-born, Finland-based Leo Funtek, barely able to keep grip on Mussorgsky’s gossipmongers in the ‘Market at Limoges’. Ravel was retained with his peerless evocation ‘Cum mortuis in lingua mortua’, which followed John Boyd’s ‘Catacombs’. Stokowski’s larger-than-life ‘Babi-Yaga’ took us up to Gamley’s ‘Great Gate’, the latter from 1968, not as shown above (which replicates the programme information): other discrepancies include the Ashkenazy orchestration, which was certainly made before 1990 given he recorded it in 1982, and one wouldn’t have known from the programme that Lawrence Leonard died a couple of years ago!
It’s an odd experience hearing familiar music in unfamiliar terms, although Mussorgsky always shines through. I suspect Slatkin has more pot-pourri Pictures to present. In 1991 we had nine composers (with Sir Henry Wood’s ‘Great Gate’ as an encore); here we had 15, and there may be more orchestrations to choose from in due course. I hope Slatkin brings some more Pictures to the Proms; although Henry Wood’s version complete would be the thing, especially when the bust of the Proms’ founder is looking down from on high in the Royal Albert Hall!

*2nd Sep 2004*
Ravel has more or less cornered the market when it comes to the orchestration of Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition. It has become a classic.
But there are well over two dozen other versions and, last night, Leonard Slatkin, celebrating his 60th birthday, guided the BBC Symphony Orchestra through a collage of assorted arrangements.

Before the interval, he conducted excerpts from Britten’s The Prince of the Pagodas that caught the ballet’s sensuousness, stealth and sparkle, and Michael Collins was the agile soloist in John Corigliano’s cleverly written Clarinet Concerto, a virtuoso piece that seemed to demand an awful lot of effort for such innocuous results.

However, the Mussorgsky sequence was worth doing as a jeu d’esprit. There are 10 pictures and several linking "promenades" in the original piano suite – 15 items in all, each played here in an arrangement by a different composer.
It is odd that Rimsky-Korsakov never had a go at it: he was quick enough to apply his orchestral brush to other Mussorgsky scores when he thought them too primitive, and Pictures might be thought to have been an irresistible temptation.
But, in this instance, he passed the buck to Mikhail Tushmalov, who, by the 1880s, had already produced the first orchestral elaboration. One of the ones that followed, in 1915, was by none other than the founder of the Proms, Sir Henry Wood. And if his great lumbering orchestration of "Two Polish Jews, One Rich, One Poor" is anything to go by, it is hardly surprising that he suppressed his version after hearing the Ravel.

Even when Ravel’s score had taken a hold, others still felt free to have their say, including that uninhibited arch-transcriber Leopold Stokowski, whose account of "The Hut on Fowl’s Legs" could certainly not be accused of good taste. Indeed, with the exception of the chirpy "Ballet of the Unhatched Chicks" by Lucien Cailliet, none of the orchestrations here had Ravel’s finesse.

And after the excesses of Douglas Gamley’s "Great Gate of Kiev" (with organ and chorus), nobody could feel guilty about preferring the stark realities of Mussorgsky’s original.

Modest Petrovich Mussorgsky was born in 1839, the fourth son of a land-owner. As a young officer he had musical ambitions and, without any training in composition, tried his hand at an opera and less demanding compositions for the entertainment of his friends. It was a meeting with the nationalist composer C???sar Cui, an expert in military fortification, and with the composer Dargom???zhsky, that led him to a more influential connection with Balakirev, self-appointed leader of the nationalists, and their polymath mentor, the immensely influential Vladimir Stasov, Mussorgsky’s first biographer. It is of some interest to notice that Stasov at first found little good to say of Mussorgsky, whom he found lacking in ideas and a complete idiot, a judgement in which Balakirev concurred at the time and over the following years. Mussorgsky resigned his commission in the army in 1858. Following the emancipation of the serfs of 1861, which brought financial consequences for land-owners, Mussorgsky in 1863 took a position as a clerk in the Ministry of Communications, and continued intermittently in government employment. It was from this time onwards that he developed his own highly original musical ideas and language, and his deep interest in the people and history of Russia. In 1867 he left the civil service and attempted to earn a living from music, as a teacher and accompanist, but the following year he sought to solve his financial difficulties by taking a position in the government Forestry Department. Perhaps his greatest musical success came in 1874 with the performance of his historical opera Boris Godunov, a work to which critics, however, took general exception. His bouts of drinking finally forced him to abandon government service in 1880, after attempts by friends to protect his position. Others now offered him support, hoping that he might complete his operas Sorochintsy Fair and Khovanshchina, two tasks that, in the circumstances, were beyond him. He died in March the following year, his death the result of epilepsy, induced by alcoholism. He left much unfinished, to be revised and edited by his colleague Rimsky-Korsakov, from whom Balakirev had recently advised him to take lessons in harmony. Rimsky-Korsakov, who had acquired his musical skills largely as an adult, after earlier service as a naval officer, was to revise and finish some of the works that Mussorgsky had failed to complete, and to perform the same service for the nationalist composer Borodin, introducing an element of musical sophistication that has not always proved welcome, as the nature of Mussorgsky’s originality and genius has become more widely understood and appreciated.

Pictures at an Exhibition was written in 1874 as a set of piano pieces, a translation into music of paintings, designs, models and drawings by Mussorgsky’s friend Victor Hartmann, who had died the year before. These piano pieces have been orchestrated by various composers, with the version by Maurice Ravel probably the best known. Peter Breiner has here orchestrated the pieces for an orchestra of piccolo, three flutes, alto flute, four oboes, cor anglais, four clarinets, bass clarinet, four bassoons, contrabassoon, four horns, four trumpets, four trombones, tuba, timpani, and six percussion players, with bass drum, snare drum, cymbals, tam-tam, anvil, temple blocks, cabassa, tambourine, tubular bells, glockenspiel, xylophone, marimba, and vibraphone. The orchestra used also has piano, harp and celeste, with a string section of sixty players.

The exhibits are linked by a Promenade, as the visitor to the exhibition goes from exhibit to exhibit. The titles of the works are largely self-explanatory. Gnomus is a design for nutcrackers in the shape of a gnome; The Old Castle shows a troubadour singing outside the castle walls and the Tuileries depicts children at play and quarrelling, while nursemaids gossip, in the famous Paris gardens. Bydlo is a traditional Polish peasant ox-cart, with its creaking wooden wheels slowly turning; Ballet of the Chickens in their Shells shows designs for children’s costumes, as described in the title, and Samuel Goldenberg and Schmuyle, the names of those portrayed the invention of the painter, is a picture of two Jews, one rich, one poor, a present by Hartmann to the composer. In Limoges market-place old women gossip, discussing the fate of an escaped cow, and more trivial nonsense, while the Roman Catacombs, subtitled Sepulchrum Romanum, are lit by a flickering lamp, the skulls piled on either side beginning to glow in the light from within. This is linked to the eerie With the Dead in the Language of the Dead. The macabre continues with The Hut on Fowl’s Legs, a clock in the form of the hut of the witch Baba Yaga, who crunches up children’s bones and flies through the night on a pestle. The impressive conclusion offers a design for a triumphal gate in Kiev, to commemorate the escape of Tsar Alexander II from assassination in 1866. The music contrasts the massive structure with the sound of a solemn procession of chanting monks.

Mussorgsky wrote songs throughout his life, the first at the age of nineteen and the last in 1879. Pesni i piyaski smerti (Songs and Dances of Death) date from 1875, with the fourth song written in 1877. Based on a suggestion from Stasov and with texts by Arseny Golenischchev-Kutuzov, the songs reflect encounters with death. In the first, Kol???bel’naya (Lullaby), dedicated to the veteran singer Anna Vorobyeva-Petrova, Death lulls to final sleep a child, dying in his mother’s arms, and in the second, Serenada, dedicated to Glinka’s sister, Death serenades a dying girl, claiming her as his own. In Trepak, dedicated to the bass Osip Petrov, Death dances with a drunken peasant, lured to die in the ice and snow. The fourth song, Polkovodets (The Field Marshal), dedicated to Kutuzov, presents a scene of battle, after which Death surveys the field, having conquered all. Peter Breiner’s orchestral arrangement of the songs is scored for two flutes with piccolo, two oboes with cor anglais, two clarinets and a bass clarinet, two bassoons and a contrabassoon, four horns, three trumpets, four trombones, tuba, timpani, snare drum, cymbals, bass drum, triangle, tubular bells, glockenspiel, xylophone, harp, celesta, piano and a string section of fifty players.

For his orchestral arrangement of The Nursery Peter Breiner uses similar forces, with the addition of tambourine, marimba and vibraphone to the percussion section. Mussorgsky was good with children and the songs that make up The Nursery reflect this ability to enter a child’s world on equal terms. The words, in prose, their rhythms and intonations reflected in the vocal line, are by the composer. The first song of the cycle, S nyaney (With Nurse), was written in 1868 and is dedicated to Dargom???zhsky, described as ‘the great teacher of musical truth’. A child begs his nurse to tell him stories of bogeymen, of a limping Tsar and a sneezing Tsaritsa; in the end, though, he would rather have a funny story. V uglu (In the Corner) has Nanny rebuking her charge for splashing ink over a sock and upsetting her knitting; the child rejects these accusations, claiming to have been good, while Nanny is being horrible. The song, with the following three of the series, was written in 1870. It is dedicated to Victor Hartmann. Zhuk (The Beetle), dedicated to Vladimir Stasov, has the boy telling Nanny about a beetle that appeared while he was playing and flew into him, and now lies on its back hardly moving; he puzzles over what has happened to it. S kukloy (With the Doll), dedicated to his niece and nephew Tanyushka and Goga, children of his brother Filaret, has the child, presumably a little girl, lulling a doll to sleep, with threats of bogeymen and speculation about the fine land of dreams. Na son gryadushchiy (Going to Sleep) is dedicated to his godson, C???sar Cui’s child Sasha. The little girl says her prayers, listing all those to be remembered, corrected finally to include herself, a sinner, to Nanny’s final approval.

The last two songs of the set were written in 1872 and originally intended to form part of another group, At the Dacha. In Kot Matros (The Cat Sailor) the little girl searches for a sunshade and finally rescues their caged bullfinch from their cat, Sailor. Poyekal na palochke (On the Hobby Horse), originally described as ‘An Episode from a Child’s Life’, is dedicated to Vladimir Stasov’s brother Dimitri and his wife Polixena. The boy rides his wooden hobbyhorse, pretending to ride out for the day, urging his horse onward, only to hurt his foot and need his mother’s consolation.

Note on the Orchestration

I was not trying to re-create Mussorgsky’s orchestral sound in this recording, but actually to create a contemporary sound. I wanted to create it without using any unusual instruments and to stay within the limits of the traditional symphony orchestra with a substantial expansion in woodwind and percussion. I tried to create a contemporary sound with unusual combinations and settings.

From the very beginning, the first Promenade combines alto flute, cor anglais and violins divisi in eight parts, with martellato violas. In places the piccolo doubling another solo woodwind at the octave and a fifth above creates an organ-like mixture effect, with the bassoon in Il vecchio castello. The possibility of setting the harmonies within one group of woodwind, thanks to the employment of four instruments in each group, creates also a lot of unusually sounds. Some solo passages were assigned to instruments that would not be really expected in that r???le—a trumpet solo in Tuileries, and a combination of trombones, four flutes and vibraphone in Cum nortuis in lingua morta.

There are a few things added to the score that were not in the piano version, such as horn glissandi in Gnomus and Bydlo, harp/vibraphone figurations in Gnomus, piano/celesta figurations in Il vecchio castello, flute figures in Samuel Goldberg und Schmuyle and La cabane sur des pattes de poule. At the end a body of 104 musicians creates quite a spectacular Great Gate of Kiev.

The song cycles introduce a different problem—to replace the vocal line in a way to make it an organic part of the orchestration. Thanks to rather recitativo like vocal lines this was possible by dividing it almost always between several solo instruments. Wherever Mussorgsky has a nice long melody, however, I try to remain within a single colour to support it. There is a lovely violin solo in Serenade and cor anglais in Trepak.

―A French critic wrote about Emil Naoumoff’s orchestration of "Pictures at an Exhibition": "When he took hold of this mythical work, Naoumoff forgot the arrangements of a Ravel or an Ashkenazy and transformed it triumphantly into a true piano concerto […]. A work whose success is easily explained by its color, panache, radiance, and supreme fidelity to the spirit of the original, and which may well prompt other pianists to adopt it into their repertoires!"

Shostakovich-Stokowski: Prelude in Eb minor – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nlGpJGSssTg)
Stokowski was one of Shostakovich’s foremost champions, giving the US Premieres of several of his symphonies and also making the first American recordings of Symphonies Nos. 1, 5, 6 and 11. In 1935, Stokowski orchestrated one of Shostakovich’s 24 Preludes for Piano, turning it into a brief but dramatic miniature tone poem. The recording heard here was made in England with a specially selected orchestra of top London players, the Maestro having by then turned 94 years old.

Mussorgsky orch. Wood ‘Pictures at an Exhibition’ – Complete Proms Performance – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FeErAbMS6t8)
Sir Henry Wood’s version of ‘Pictures at an Exhibition’ dates from 1915. It was only the second orchestration of Mussorgsky’s piano set, the first being that by Mikhail Tushmalov, a pupil of Rimsky-Korsakov. Like the Tushmalov version, Wood’s is not complete, since he omits all but the first ‘Promenade’ and makes considerable changes and abridgements to the music throughout. However, when the Ravel version appeared a few years later, Wood’s disappeared from view while Ravel’s became the pre-eminent transcription of the work, still retaining its place today at the head of over 30 orchestrations by other composers and conductors.
For a Proms concert in 2010 at London’s Royal Albert Hall, Sir Henry Wood’s arrangement was given a rare revival by the BBC National Orchestra of Wales under its Associate Guest Conductor, Francois-Xavier Roth. Gordon Jacob once described Wood’s orchestration as "superior in picturesqueness to Ravel’s," with its astonishing array of orchestral effects. On the other hand, as the announcer says at the end, it is very "over the top." No wonder the Proms audience went wild!

Debussy-Stokowski ‘Night in Granada’ – Philadelphia Orchestra
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSyFOHHOVGs
Leopold Stokowski returned to conduct the Philadelphia Orchestra in 1960 after an absence of nearly twenty years. He gave further concerts there over the next few years and one of them from 1962 has been released in its entirety on CD, the copyright in the broadcast having expired. The most atmospheric item on the programme was Stokowski’s own evocative orchestration of Debussy’s piano piece "La Soiree dans Grenade" (‘Night in Granada’) marred here and there, unfortunately, by one or two bronchial members of the Philadelphia audience!

Chopin-Stokowski: Prelude in D minor
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfJFaGQXmjU
Stokowski orchestrated several of Chopin’s piano pieces and here is the stormiest of them all. It’s the Prelude in D minor that culminates the composer’s Opus 28 set. Stokowski was 94 when he recorded a sequence of his orchestral arrangements with the National Philharmonic Orchestra and it is from those that this number comes.

Rachmaninoff-Respighi ‘The Sea and Seagulls’ – Lopez-Cobos conducts
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrrEX51zVlo
In 1929, Serge Koussevitzky had the idea that some of Rachmaninoff’s ‘Etudes-Tableaux’ for piano solo would sound well if orchestrated and he suggested Respighi for this task. Rachmaninoff himself was delighted with the idea and suggested five of the pieces, additionally supplying Respighi with various programmatic ideas and titles. The first number in the set is "The Sea and Seagulls" and it is heard here in a performance by the Cincinnati Orchestra under Jesus Lopez-Cobos.

In this recording, the BBC Symphony is conducted by Leonard Slatkin. (With all due acknowledgements to Chandos Records.)

Bach-Stokowski: Prelude in Eb minor – Czech Philharmonic – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqh8v8C5mhk)
In 1972, 90-year-old Leopold Stokowski travelled to Prague to conduct the Czech Philharmonic in two concerts, the same programme for each. He was already very frail and suffered a heavy fall on the way which caused him to miss the first rehearsal. However, he persisted in going ahead with the aid of crutches and part of one of the concerts was televised. The first half of the programme consisted of several of his own Bach arrangements and here is one of them, the Prelude No. 8 in E flat minor from The Well-Tempered Clavier. Incidentally, sitting alongside the conductor’s podium, down on Stokowski’s right, was Ainslee Cox, his Assistant Conductor, on hand to help the Maestro if any difficulties occurred.

Prague Symphony Orchestra, conductor Gennady Rozhdestvensky

One of the many people who set about orchestrating Pictures from an Exhibition was also the conductor V???clav Smet???cek "in whose life, composing was somewhat of a Cinderella, and when he did embark upon something, it was always from an external impulse only." His instrumentation of Pictures from an Exhibition was composed to be broadcast by the radio station Radiojournal at the outbreak of World War Two, at a time when Ravel was already on the list of forbidden composers.

Johan De Meij
Symphony No 3 (Planet Earth) – 2006
https://mega.co.nz/#!tB1y2bgQ!GyeNDSq4ZzNNMbh4V-lZ-nt4R6Eg8zH4XNkikwx_G7s

1st Movement: Lonely Planet (start – 17:00)
2nd Movement: Planet Earth (17:00 – 29:05)
3rd Movement: Mother Earth (29:05 – end)

This is a live recording (unreleased) of the world premiere of the piece – I believe the orchestra is the North Netherlands Philharmonic. They have recorded it in the studio, and this CD is available – and is no doubt sonically superior to this recording, which was made from the Dutch radio broadcast of the premiere concert. However, there is a certain vitality to this recording – that live excitement that you never quite match with a polished, perfect, studio performance.

About this symphony…

This is a massive piece, clocking in at nearly fifty minutes. De Meij intended it as a companion piece to Holst’s "The Planets" – whereas Holst looked at every planet but the Earth, De Meij composed his symphony as an ode exclusively to our very own planet. The choral writing is, in places, reminiscent of Holst – indeed, there is even a quote from Neptune, but this is very much De Meij’s piece. It’s scored for full symphony orchestra, choir, plus electronics – pre-recorded sound on tape, and synthesisers. Incidentally, Joris De Man (Killzone) helped out with the electronic sections of this symphony. This piece has a considerably more modern feeling about it than the first symphony – De Meij is channelling John Adams (a great deal) and Phillip Glass (to a lesser extent) here as the piece is essentially minimalist in construction – a handful of motifs and melodies, repeated and expanded throughout the piece. If you like the way Ravel’s Bolero builds and builds, you’ll like the way this piece is set out. If you like John Adams, you’ll like this. If you like the sound of an enormous orchestra, noble brass, and anthemic lyricism, you’ll like this. Give it a try – it’s a wonderful piece written about a wonderful planet. 🙂

About this recording…

This recording was made, as I have noted previously, from Dutch radio. Please, do not download this if less than perfect sound quality offends you. It is nowhere near bad – but it’s not absolutely flawless. The recording came to me mere days after the concert – in mono, and in absolutely appalling condition. I spent six months arriving at the fully remastered edition I’m uploading for you today. I have performed noise reduction (there was low frequency hum and tape hiss present all the way through) as well as re-equalised to bring out the midrange and higher frequencies, calm down the lower frequencies, and generally provide a bit of breathing room to what was initially a pretty boxy recording. I have also applied a light reverb, once again, to try to give the piece a little breathing space. It’s not perfect, but it’s definitely listenable, and it’s also RARE!

Volcano – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4oowExFBu0&feature=youtu.be)

Ya Modest Mussorgsky composed it. Maurice Ravel orchestrated it.
It is the first picture called "Gnomus" (The Gnome).

Mussorgsky-Stokowski ‘Pictures at an Exhibition’ – U.K. Premiere – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GwERJ3Aonao)
Leopold Stokowski was the first major foreign conductor to appear at the London ‘Proms’ concerts following a decision to make them more ‘international.’ Hitherto they had been mainly conducted by such British musicians as Sir Henry Wood and his successor Sir Malcolm Sargent but from 1963 onwards more and more non-British conductors have taken part.
For his Proms debut at the Royal Albert Hall, with the BBC Symphony Orchestra on 23 July 1963, Stokowski was asked by William Glock, the BBC’s Controller of Music, to conclude the concert with his own orchestration of Mussorgsky’s ‘Pictures at an Exhibition’ in its UK Premiere. The programme also included Britten’s ‘Variations and Fugue on a Theme of Purcell’ and Beethoven’s 7th Symphony, both of which have been released on CD by BBC Legends.
Stokowski’s version of ‘Pictures at an Exhibition’ omits the two French locations (‘Limoges’ and ‘Tuileries’) as he felt the work as whole should be as ‘Slavic’ as possible. The sequence is as follows:
Promenade 00:00
Gnomus 01:48
Promenade 03:57
The Old Castle 05:07
Bydlo (A Polish Ox Wagon) 08:22
Promenade 10:10
Ballet of Unhatched Chickens 11:00
Samuel Goldenberg and Schmuyle 12:12
Catacombs 14:40
The Hut on Fowl’s Legs (Baba-Yaga) 18:16
The Great Gate of Kiev 20:52

Debussy-Caplet ‘Clair de lune’ (‘Moonlight’) – Robert Irving conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9tX6U2U46XI)
Debussy’s most famous piano piece ‘Clair de lune’ has been orchestrated by several musicians, the version heard here having been made by his close friend and associate, Andre Caplet. It was featured on a 1959 LP entitled ‘Famous Evergreens’ on which the Sinfonia of London was conducted by Robert Irving. This, and another Irving LP called ‘Musical Merry-Go-Round,’ was reissued in a 2-CD set by ‘Vocalion,’ to whom all due acknowledgements are made. Both LPs consisted largely of orchestral arrangements of short works such as this.

Bach-Stokowski: Passacaglia and Fugue in C minor – Stokowski in Germany – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9Sbk3E8-ws)
n 1969, during one of his annual summer trips to Europe, Leopold Stokowski gave a televised studio performance of his own orchestration of Bach’s Passacaglia and Fugue in C minor with the Saarbrucken Radio Symphony Orchestra. This has already been uploaded here but was done so in two parts. However, I feel this sublime music needs to be seen and heard without a break, so I have re-uploaded it for that reason.

Tchaikovsky ‘March’ from "The Seasons" – Morton Gould, arranger / conductor – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKEdMbMdLm8)
Another little piece that heralds the month of March comes from Tchaikovsky’s "The Seasons." It bears the sub-title ‘Song of the Lark’ and in this 1951 recording the piano solo original has been arranged for orchestra by Morton Gould. It comes from the Pristine Audio ‘XR Remastering’ reissue (PASC 191) and is uploaded here with all due acknowledgements.

Tchaikovsky ‘Humoresque’ – Sir Malcolm Sargent, conductor / arranger – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufGz-rRAk5s)
Tchaikovsky’s ‘Humoresque’ for piano, Opus 10, No. 2, was arranged for orchestra by Stravinsky in his ballet ‘The Fairy’s Kiss’ and by Stokowski as a concert ‘encore.’ Sir Malcolm Sargent also made his own transcription and recorded it with the Royal Philharmonic in 1963 for the Reader’s Digest, to whom all due acknowledgments are made.

Schumann ‘Traumerie’ – Kostelanetz conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4RRQGrrewY)
Andre Kostelanetz conducts the New York Philharmonic in his own arrangement of Schumann’s ‘Traumerie’ (‘Dreaming’) from an old LP entitled ‘Promenade Favorites’.

Elgar ‘Salut d’Amour’ – Carmen Dragon conducts – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0yUM85kR6fw)
Elgar’s ‘Salut d’Amour’ started life as a piece for Solo Violin and Piano but soon became one of his most popular miniatures, appearing in a wide variety of arrangements. The version heard here was arranged by Carmen Dragon for string orchestra and recorded by the Capitol Symphony under his own direction for a sumptuous ‘Full Dimensional Stereo Sound’ LP in 1961

RICHARD STRAUSS
METAMORPHOSEN, study for 23 solo strings
TOD UND VERKL???RUNG, tone-poem for large orchestra
Berliner Philharmoniker
Conducted by Herbert von Karajan

FLAC + CUE | 2 Tracks | 51:41 | 230 MB

Here are two works by Strauss, given resplendent accounts by Karajan and the Berlin Philharmonic.

The first (and IMHO better work), "Metamorphosen," is extremely intimate and elegiac. This was written towards the end of Strauss’s life and was inspired by the firebombing of Munich and in particular the destruction of that city’s opera house, the Bavarian National Theater. Filled with despair and tragedy.

"Tod und Verkl???rung" (Death and Transfiguration) is the more famous of the two, written much earlier in Strauss’s life. It takes a more positive perspective on death as a joining with the divine.

Blogger Musical (Beautiful Classical Music): Zador: Five Contrasts, Children’s Symphony (http://i-bloggermusic.blogspot.gr/2013/03/zador-five-contrasts-childrens-symphony.html)

ZADOR, E.: 5 Contrasts / Children’s Symphony / Aria and Allegro / Hungarian Caprice (Budapest Symphony MAV, Smolij) – 8.572548 (http://www.naxos.com/catalogue/item.asp?item_code=8.572548)

The performances on this disc are excellent. The Budapest Symphony Orchestra M???V plays with great spirt and finesse under Mariusz Smolij. Z???dor was, as you might expect, a superb orchestrator. He did it for a living, after all, and by this I don???t mean he resorted to a gratuitous excess of color standing in for musical inspiration, but rather a knack for finding the right sound to convey the musical message. These players seem to appreciate this aspect of the music; the playing has soul, however subjective that may sound, while the engineering is excellent. Get to know this music; it???s worth your time. –ClassicsToday.com

Eugene Z???dor was a remarkable colourist and orchestrator whose Hollywood film work was extensive. He described himself as a ???middle of the road extremist???. The Aria and Allegro is a beautifully crafted work brimming with rhythmic energy. Five Contrasts for Orchestra demonstrates his rich sound world at its most vibrant; film noir jostling with a bigbooted country dance. The lighter A Children???s Symphony is one of his most popular pieces ??? communicative, witty, accessible. We also hear two small and captivating evocations of his native Hungary.

None of these pieces has been recorded before. One of Z???dor???s major works, Christopher Columbus, is on Cambria coupled with the Studies for orchestra. Z???dor???s music is hugely approachable, and exciting, as befits a Hollywood orchestrator. He was great friends with Mikl???s R???zsa and shares that communicative spirit and sense of colour (in fact he was R???zsa???s own orchestrator).

Yes, I was befuddled. I tried it again and did down load. Found the pass word.

This piece of music- Prelude for a drama is just lovely. It is from another time long past… sometimes reminding me of Korngold. Very much a lovely tone poem…. telling a story with music that is remarkably accessible.

I only heard this piece on the radio today. The first time in some years I have heard something NEW that intrigued me. The orchestra for this 20 minute piece is HUGE.

It is par for the course with me to discover a new composer whose life was short. Looking forward to hearing more of this man’s work.

[a]World premiere recordings.

Despite its popularity amongst wind players and fans of wind music in general, music for wind orchestra has yet to achieve the status of its richer cousin "classical music". Ironically, the wind music scene is a thriving one, with highly developed schools of composition in America and Western Europe. New works appear annually and are greeted enthusiastically by performers and audiences alike; but their composers, such as Alfred Reed and Jan van der Roost, are practically unknown outside wind music circles. It is only when a "serious" orchestral composer enters the concert band repertoire that classical music listeners sit up and pay attention. In this respect, composers like Holst and Vaughan Williams have lent authority to an otherwise overlooked genre.

A recent series by Chandos featuring the excellent Royal Northern College of Music Wind Orchestra wanders cautiously into this niche, surveying the wind music of the English, French and Nordic regions. This instalment takes the English band to Russia and injects a few more big names, including Prokofiev, Rimsky-Korsakov and Khachaturian into the wind music repertoire. It can also be considered a follow-up to a 1996 release entitled Russian Concert Band Music (CHAN 9444) with the Stockholm Concert Band conducted by Gennady Rozhdestvensky, which features a remarkably similar line-up.

That earlier disc presented a varied and interesting programme, representing the best of Russian wind music with its inclusion of Myaskovsky’s Symphony No. 19 and two Rimsky-Korsakov concertos. This newcomer, while receiving a much more polished performance, is considerably heavier on the marches. As a wind player I found the selection a disappointment, particularly considering the announcement in the liner notes to Russian Concert Band Music that "band music has such prestige in Russia…. there are so many excellent compositions for band by composers from Russia and the other former Soviet republics."

Where are these excellent compositions? The present CD’s notes report the difficulty of obtaining scores from the former Soviet Union; for example, only one of the four Gli???re overtures in the catalogue was traceable. This lone Gli???re discovery, the Solemn Overture for the 20th Anniversary of the October Revolution, opus 72, is perhaps one of the disc’s most attractive works, exploiting the contrasting timbres of the different brass and wind sections of the ensemble (which, in contrast to the wind section of a typical symphony orchestra, employs larger choirs of a wider range of instruments such as the cornet, euphonium, saxhorn and the complete range of saxophones) and exploring the many possibilities of wind scoring from rhythmic excitement to lyrical beauty. Gli???re’s Overture is built on attractive melodic material that has instant appeal, with contrasting sections of declamation and lyricism, heroism and quiet sustaining interest in this 8-minute Overture.

It is worth noting that this 1937 October tribute has more than a touch of Rimsky-Korsakov in it, especially in the central dance sequence on woodwind. In fact, Gli???re sounds even more like Rimsky-Korsakov than Rimsky-Korsakov himself in the latter’s Trombone Concerto. This rather dull outing reads like an exercise piece containing not the slightest trace of the usually colourful and exotic Russian master. The central slow section hints at Tchaikovsky, while the finale is somewhat reminiscent of the finale of Vaughan Williams’ English Folk Song Suite. This is a far cry from the more idiomatic Concertst???ck for Clarinet and Military Band and Variations for Oboe and Military Band featured in Russian Concert Band Music. The Trombone Concerto’s rarity on disc undoubtedly earned it a place here. It may satisfy the completist, but I would much rather hear the transcription of Scheherazade mentioned in the notes to the earlier release.

Stravinsky adds value to the programme with his rollicking Circus Polka, which bursts with the neoclassic quirkiness of his Dumbarton Oaks concerto. Despite its frivolous title and subtitle, it is a marvellous miniature that shows off what a small band of wind instruments can achieve.

To this impressive roll-call of Russian composers comes Shostakovich with a disappointing one-and-a-half minutes’ worth of music. His March of the Soviet Militia, opus 139, is an innocuous miniature written between the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Symphonies. Placed in the middle of the programme, this trifle is easily upstaged by the surrounding works to the extent that without the minimum of attention you’d miss it altogether. It takes the form of a rousing military march dominated by a grandiose, Rossinian fanfare-like melody on the trumpets, with a typically strident second subject on the lower brass in a deliberately elementary A-B-A construction. A fleeting four-bar introduction on trilling woodwind and horns on a two-note utterance opens proceedings, the trumpets carrying the tune throughout in an insistent fashion. Section repeats are generously applied, and the work ends as unceremoniously as it begins. If Tahiti Trot took the composer 40 minutes to dash off, then I would guess this march took him 10!

The CD notes are just as brief on background information to the work. The annotator of Russian Concert Band Music, where it was also programmed (under the title March of the Soviet Police), refers to it as a "witty and ironic" work that according to Galina Vishnevskaya was written upon request of the despised Minister of Soviet Police, Nikolai Shcholokov. Fay’s biography Shostakovich: A Life (reviewed in DSCH No. 12) efficiently describes the work as a submission for a competition in 1970 that won first prize. Volkov’s Testimony further claims that the work was written with its dedicatee Zoshchenko in mind – the famed writer had once worked on the police force.

How much irony one can actually detect depends on the execution. Rozhdestvensky’s trumpets press the point home with emphatic playing, underlining their omnipresence with their constantly high, somewhat strained register. His band also outlines clearly the simplistic nature of Shostakovich’s upper melody and the blockish tutti accompaniment on the lower winds. As is apparent in the premiere recording by N. Zolotaryov and the Model Orchestra of the Moscow Kremlin Guard (reproduced on Chandos’ DSCH CD-ROM/DVD-ROM; CHAN 50001/55001; reviewed in DSCH No. 15), which extends the work with even more repeats in the second and final sections, to diminishing returns, the wit is at best subtle; this march has the potential to sound annoying and ridiculous if played with overt enthusiasm.

Zolotaryov’s recording makes us appreciate the brevity and light touch applied by the Royal Northern College Wind Orchestra, who render this a harmless, upbeat, made-to-order march that is over in a blink of the eye. Despite its brevity it does bear the hallmark of the composer’s impeccable craftsmanship: the efficiency of his method, the simplicity of the building blocks.

Prokofiev makes a more substantial contribution with his Marches For Military Band, opus 69, which ups the marching band quotient of the programme, for better or worse. The disc also includes his Anthem, opus 98, submitted for that notorious 1943 competition, which with its great tune and warm subtlety I found far more interesting. The opus 69 marches are more garish in comparison. Chandos here present the world premiere of the complete set of four, with previous cuts reinstated. Each march has a distinct character, and they are peppered with typical Prokofievan insolence. Deliberately or not, his melodies tend to overstay their welcome (the saccharine Cavalry March tune is a perfect example). While they are nowhere near as delightful as his opus 99 March found on Russian Concert Band Music (a work that displays the charm of the March from Love for Three Oranges), the contrasting individuality of each march will certainly be of interest.

The set opens with a rather flippant March for a Spartakiade, whose key melody could fit right into Shostakovich’s Moscow, Cheryomushki. It’s saved from excessive banality by imaginative instrumentation and an interestingly delicate trio (a military band term for a third, more lyrical section of a typical two-subject march). The second Marching Song is more typically pompous, with a stately melody in triple time that might have accompanied military march-pasts or slow marches and a subtle sour twist or two, courtesy of the incorrigible Prokofiev. The third march, written for a competition and the longest of the four, is all pomp and circumstance, with a main tune that I quickly found becomes an irritation. Its saving grace is the lyrical second theme and its two trios of contrasting character, one featuring a solo trumpet and a second, originally cut, starting on the clarinets and developing through various sections such as tuba and saxophones. The final Cavalry March has more than a tinge of irony in it, with its whimsical child-like tune passing from solo trumpet to tuba to woodwinds against a fluffy carnival backdrop complete with trotting triangle and cymbals, recalling Lieutenant Kije. The orchestra perform these marches with a lightness of touch and wonderful solo playing.

Khachaturian closes the programme with the most substantial offering here, a premiere recording of the 30-minute band arrangement of his film music from The Battle of Stalingrad. You can’t get more Socialist Realist than this: the touch of Spartacus in Invasion sounds utterly surreal in this overtly bombastic venture. The music is unmistakably Khachaturian, and there are moments where the fingerprints of Gayane are unmistakable (for example, compare Battle, one of the high points of the suite, with Gayane’s Storm). There are redeeming moments from the bombast of it all, for example, in the dark central movement; The enemy is doomed, where against a plodding accompaniment the low woodwind and brass take turns to intone mournful passages reminiscent of the third movement of Shostakovich’s Eleventh Symphony.

The band sound truly is stunning in the best moments of the score, even through the more hard-driven sections, and on the whole their performances on this disc are highly recommendable. They possess a more transparent and flexible sound than the Stockholm band under Rozhdestvensky, and their trademark lightness (especially noteworthy in the percussion) and crisp articulation give this programme a wonderful shine. If your tolerance for marches and Socialist Realist music is high enough, this could be an enjoyable excursion after all.

I am looking for music that probably never made it to CD…..

Sviridov LP disc from Columbia Records [M-34525], containing his Spring Cantata, choruses from the Incidental Music to Tolstoy’s ‘Tsar Fedor Ivanovich’, Concert in Memory of Aleksander Yurlov and Three Miniatures: Roudelay, Springtide, and Caroling.

I see the LP on Ebay…. but would rather discover digital recordings of these works.

HELP!

Naxos 25th Anniversary. The Great Classics. Box #9 – Great Sacred Masterpieces (LOSSLESS)

Year: 2012 | Format: (*. Flac) Bitrate: Lossless Rip type: (Image +. Cue) Scans: (PNG 600 dpi.) | 3.16 GB

Music has always had an important part to play in religious ritual. Records show that plainchant existed from as early as 3 AD, and centuries later it was to provide a foundation for early polyphony and for the great flowering of church music in the Renaissance, including the transcendent works of Tallis and Allegri.
JS Bach wrote most of his music for the Lutheran church, including the magnificent Mass in B Minor and the two Passions. Handel also contributed to religious music in England, with the creation of oratorios such as Messiah which, when witnessed by Haydn years later, inspired him to write The Creation. In the nineteenth century the form flowered again with Felix Mendelssohn, himself responsible for bringing many sacred works by JS Bach back to musical prominence. He completed Elijah in 1846; a work that, although modeled on the Handelian oratorio, clearly reflected in its lyricism and use of orchestral and choral colour Mendelssohn???s own genius as an early-Romantic composer. Particular attention has been given over the years to settings of the Requiem Mass. This collection includes three versions???from contemplative Mozart, to awesome Verdi, and sublime Faur???. Without doubt, in the years to come, religion will continue to be the driving inspirational force behind many a composition.

Puccini – Tosca (Riccardo Muti, Maria Guleghina, Salvatore Licitra, Leo Nucci) 2000 (2011) (DVD)

NTSC 16:9 (720×480) VBR Auto Pan&Scan | Italiano (LinearPCM, 2 ch), (Dolby AC3, 6 ch), (DTS, 5 ch) | 7.70 Gb (DVD9)
Classical | Label: EuroArts | Sub: Italiano, English, Deutsch, Francais, Espanol

Tosca was revived to great acclaim at La Scala in this 2000 production, which built on Luca Ronconi’s 1996 version with musical direction from principal conductor Riccardo Muti and Lorenza Cantini’s nightmarishly distorted set. Puccini’s most recorded opera is loved and derided in equal measure for its high-octane dramatics, rich arias and the fire-spitting exchanges of the eponymous heroine and her wily tormentor Scarpia. Under Muti, the music takes precedence over the self-conscious theatricality of the book. As a result, some high dramatic points–the stabbing, always tricky, and Tosca’s suicide, equally dicey–are underplayed here.
Singers of the calibre of Maria Guleghina and baritone Leo Nucci can be relied upon for rounded, controlled performances. Guleghina eschews the ferocity of Callas for a less stately, earthier honesty and enjoys moments of great delicacy, particularly in a sweet "Vissi d’arte". And her grief at Cavaradossi’s death is searing. The key to Tosca, though, is the ambivalent relationship between the singer and the chief of police. Scarpia is probably the most toxic antihero in opera, and Nucci could do with a touch more virulence. Even so, this is a fascinating production that strips away much of the traditional artifice and gives real insight into the complex emotions that make the opera so compelling for its devotees.

Performer:
Floria Tosca – Maria Guleghina
Mario Cavaradossi – Salvatore Licitra
Il barone Scarpia ??? Leo Nucci
Cesare Angelotti ??? Giovanni Battista Parodi
Il sagrestano ??? Alfredo Mariotti
Spoletta ??? Ernesto Gavazzi
Sciarrone ??? Silvestro Sammaritano
Un carceriere ??? Ernesto Panariello
Un pastore ??? Virginia Barchi
Orchestra e Coro del Teatro alla Scala
Conductor ??? Riccardo Muti

Oscar, you are doing an amazing job of providing some classic classical recordings on an EPIC level. Sorry you were given a hard time in in the pedantic wimpel thread ‘music that could be film music’ all of which is a BIG reach as far as concept.

So from now on "sharing/discovering new music/composers", etc. gonna be called pedantic? That’s funny.

There is a big difference in this and the other thread.

1 – Also yep, awesome uploads, most of them can be found easily on Rutracker and some more popular trackers. And of course, in the typical classical blog’s for DD.
2 – Most of Wimpel uploads will be found ONLY here or some hard-to-get-into private trackers. And in some cases, first option only.

That’s the little diference. But i praise too the work Oscar is doing.

I’ve been really dedicating myself to classical music and opera recently and most recently I just listened through Der Ring Des Nibelungen while following along in the German/English libretto and it was an experience. One I’ll treasure. I listened to the Karajan because I thought the Vorspiel to Das Rheingold had more nuance than some of the others I was sampling in a low bit rates on youtube, grooveshark, etc. so I grabbed his cycle but the CDs I ripped it from were hard to find. I would like to do this again but with another cycle and conducter. Does anyone have any other lossless Ring recordings? I don’t quite care for the Solti but I thought the Janowski sounded interesting. Or the 66-67 Bohm. Or the first stereo cycle 1995 Keilberth on Testament. Or Furtwangler’s only 1953 cycle with the RAI (which reviews of the recent Japanese EMI release say it apparently has the best mix/sound of) but I’d honestly be grateful for any new recording of The Ring. Any at all. If it’s loved I’d love to hear why. It’s not a thing many people I’ve met have even heard of so I’m networking 🙂 Feel free to message me.

Anyone has recordings of Warlock’s Capriol Suite & Thomson’s Autumn Concertino for Harp, Percussion and Strings? Would be happy if someone may share it with me. Not sure if this would be a place to also request for Yanni albums (more specifically, the two live albums "Live at the Acropolis" and "Tribute".)

Oh, hi. I know I don’t come to this site often, but I’ve heard some great things about David Barenboim’s version of Wagner’s Ring cycle, and, well, if anyone has uploaded it anywhere, I’d be very thankful. I can’t seem to find it readily downloadable anywhere, and the place I’ve found it, I’ve always been unable to download it (premium-only links, defunct links, what have you). MP3 or FLAC is fine to me (but I’d prefer FLAC). Again, if anyone could upload it or already has uploaded it and could link me to it, I’d be forever indebted to them.

================================================== ===========================================

Finally a 24-bit recording for Gyorgy Sviridov’s Snowstorm! I was looking for this. Vladimir Fedoseyev has been a champion of his orchestral works, but I was waiting for a DDD recording of this (You know, Metal Gear Solid fan).
(Classical) ?????????????????? ?????????????????? – – 1995, FLAC (image+.cue) lossless :: RuTracker.org (ex torrents.ru) (http://rutracker.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4624646)

torrent file
https://www.mediafire.com/?j6dbptfaagbtcwi

So my theory goes like this. Perhaps it was quite hard for the various Melodiya releases to reach Japan. But JP label Pony Canyon recorded and released the disc in 1995. Metal Gear Solid 1 was unveiled in 1996, meaning that Tappy Iwase was working on the game music back in 1995. Perchance he grabbed the JP Pony Canyon disc, and subsequently the music of Sviridov became a nice inspiration for him.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7damwzqa4s

Tappi Iwase – VGMdb (http://vgmdb.net/artist/333)
Tappi Iwase – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tappi_Iwase)

Tappy Iwase is credited with composing all of the music to the game Metal Gear Solid, with the exception being the ending theme "The Best is Yet to Come". This includes the well-known main music theme to Metal Gear Solid, subsequently used in Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. The use of his theme song was discontinued from Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of The Patriots onward, following the discovery that its motifs were actually plagiarized from a classical piece by Russian composer Georgy Sviridov.

Argh! Thanks for the link — it’s certainly an improvement of what I had before, which was nothing. But I was really hoping they’d be cut into their individual acts for each symphony, not just a single 45 minute song. Maybe I’m just being irritatingly picky.

Reinhold Gliere – Violin Concerto & Symphony No 2 ( Yuko Nishino, Yondani Butt )

(Concert, Symphony) ???. ??????????????? – ?????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????, ???????????????????????? ???2 (Yuko Nishino, Yondani Butt) – 2002, APE (image+.cue), lossless :: RuTracker.org (ex torrents.ru) (http://rutracker.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2009362)

Gliere began composition of his unfinished violin concerto shortly before his death in 1956, a fact that comes as somewhat of a surprise considering it sounds considerably less “modern” than some of his earlier compositions (i.e., the Symphony No. 3 from 1910). Completed and orchestrated by Lyatoshinsky, the concerto constitutes a throwback to the lyrical-romantic style of Mendelssohn but also sounds markedly influenced by the Glazunov concerto. Thus, the solo writing is in the echt-19th century virtuoso vein, which seems to present no significant challenge for Yuko Nishino, who delivers the part with the requisite showmanship as well as a certain infectious ardor.

Those familiar with Gliere’s massive, phantasmagorical Third Symphony “Ilya Murometz” may be surprised by the pared down melodic style and harmonic palette of his Symphony No. 2. The first movement begins with a bold, commanding statement of what will become a main motto theme, and the rest of the movement maintains this stark, angry tone. However, the music becomes quite colorful at the climax of the development (as well as the slow movement’s magical central section), where we hear intriguing pre-echoes of the later symphony. Conductor Yondani Butt illuminates the music’s tragic grandeur, taking care to underline the insistent motto theme whenever it appears (most notably when the horns repeatedly hammer it out in the first-movement climax). Overall, Butt’s version has more raw energy than Edward Downes’ BBC Philharmonic performance, even if it lacks the latter’s polished finesse. ASV’s dry, close recording is less pleasing than the fuller, more spacious Chandos sound.

This is a safer bet than ASV’s recent Kod???ly disc. Yondani Butt’s interpretations hang together better here, the music is less milked, the Philharmonia’s tutti are tightened (instrumental solo excellence can be taken for granted). Hungarian-born Goldmark may sound sub-Brahms, but he’s sub- a lot of other good things too (at times, notably Russian-orientated). The Symphony feels best focused in the faster later movements (the Andante flags significantly). The two fillers are both rewarding. Worth a try.

Such manifestly eccentric music defies rational analysis. The Third Symphony opens with the sort of manic percussive assault you would expect from a teenager let loose on a drum kit for the first time. After an exhausting three minutes it subsides into several minutes of near-silence, finally broken by the strident nasal squawking of a battery of shawms and other Eastern double-reed instruments. Any hope that this might lead somewhere recognisably musical is shattered by the mayhem that ensues. The percussion re-enters, joined by whooping horns, braying trombones, and primordial squeaks from the woodwind. An almost completely static slow movement is followed by a finale whose fabulous barrage of sound teeters on the brink of total chaos. In the single-movement Fourth Symphony, ghostly musical fragments drift in and out of a mesmerising spectral backcloth that scarcely changes over the half-hour duration. You could reject such music out of hand, but in fact it is oddly compelling.

Dmitri Kabalevsky – The Comedians", "Romeo and Julia" "Colas Breugnon" — Armenian Philharmonic Orchestra Loris Tjeknavorian (conductor)

(Orchesral music) ????????????????????????????????? – ???????????????????????? ???????????????: "??????????????? ??? ???????????????????????????", "??????????????????????????????", "???????????? ?????????????????????" (Loris Tjeknavorian) – 1996, FLAC (image+.cue), lossless :: RuTracker.org (ex torrents.ru) (http://rutracker.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2328823)

Kabalevsky’s light, melodious touch is well displayed in these three orchestral suites, whose content coincides exactly on the two records. His best-known piece remains the overture to Colas Breugnon (three more pieces from the opera are included), and this is played with a certain amount of verve by Jelvakov and the Moscow Symphony Orchestra; Tjeknavorian takes it a little more slowly with the Armenian Philharmonic, but the extra clarity, which is also found in the recording itself, helps the liveliness.

Of the other music, the Galop from The Comedians, delivered rather more punchily by the Armenians than by the Muscovites, has become something of a popular hit in Russia. The play was written for a children’s theatre in 1939 by the Jewish playwright Mark Daniel, who died young the following year. It is on the unlikely subject of Johannes Gutenberg, and was originally entitled The Inventor and the Comedian; it includes some attractive pieces in Kabalevsky’s trouble-free vein of easily accessible music. His Shakespeare scores test his range a good deal further – they include Measure for Measure – and in this music for Romeo and Juliet he succeeds better with the sprightlier pieces than in the love music or with the death scene for the star-crossed lovers. There is a sombre movement for Friar Laurence that has a half-allusion to Tchaikovsky’s Fantasy-Overture; this is played gravely by Jelvakov, but with intensity and a sense of doom by Tjeknavorian, who also gives the death scene a stronger atmosphere of tragedy and mourning.

These latter pieces sit a little uneasily with the predominantly bright, cheery music; but without knowing more about the nature of the production, staged in 1956 for the theatre named in honour of one of Russia’s great pioneers of the twentieth-century theatre, Yevgeny Vakhtangov, or even whether there is more music that did not fit into a suite, it is unfair to question the balance of the moods. What we have is some predominantly fresh and agreeable music, agreeably played especially by Tjeknavorian.

Thanks so much for this. Amirov is wonderful!

Yes, Fikret Amirov delivers!

AMIROV (1922-1984) wrote highly coloured music – as brightly lit as ASV’s cover art. This is ethnic-dramatic and ranges from poetic middle eastern exotic to gaudily raucous. You might well end up grouping these works written during the period 1940-1970 with those of Khachaturian. The Moscow Phil under de Almeida play up the barbarous colours in a 1996 recording. This Azerbaijani composer rejoiced in a Rimskian tradition and poured into it colours that rage and dazzle. No wonder that Stokowski took up the first of his Azerbaijani Mugams (nationalistic rhapsodies) coupled on Everest with Scriabin’s Poem of Ecstasy and, I think, other works. It can be a little episodic and is in the Borodin Polovtsian tradition. There is a Naxos CD of Amirov orchestral works which overlaps with but has a shorter playing time than this one. It’s also worth looking out for two generously timed and long-gone Olympia CDs of Amirov orchestral music: OCD 490 and OCD 578. This music is quite addictive. The present disc is completed by an essay from Philip Taylor.

http://www.musicweb-international.com/classrev/2000/nov00/Glieremultiple.htm
http://www.classical-music.com/review/gliereginastera

If you are decadent enough to have your CD sound piped through to the bathroom, this is the kind of disc you would surely enjoy there. As JBS noted in reviewing the reissued performances on mid-price Decca, Gliere’s concertos are unashamed Easy Listening. Composed in 1938, though most of it could have been written 50 or more years earlier, the Harp Concerto is anodyne and ingratiating throughout—and absolutely irresistible if you are in the mood. Rachel Masters is every bit as fluent an exponent as Osian Ellis, and the generous acoustic of All Saints Church, Tooting allows every note to hang deliciously in the air.

The Concerto for coloratura soprano is another mellifluous and undemanding piece. Undemanding for the listener, that is; for the soprano it is a merciless examination of breath control and intonation, with no consonants to articulate, no vowels to colour the sound, and no text to guide the interpretation. Eileen Hulse sails through with scarcely a hint of distress, she even adds some phrases not in the printed Kalmus score, taking her up to an exquisite E in alt (from 2’33”, bars 140 to 155 in the second movement). It’s a pity her final top F fractionally overshoots, but in general I prefer her sensitively blended chamber-music approach to the blowsier operatic delivery of Dame Joan Sutherland (who opts for the lower octave at the end). Neither singer can avoid parts of the faster second movement sounding like a castrato version of The Laughing Policeman.

Gliere’s lush late romanticism and Chandos’s house-style recording are a marriage made in heaven. But Ginastera’s 1956 Concerto is another matter. A colourful display piece, thoroughly Latin American in feel and with a particularly attractive Bartokian Night-Music central movement, its style is generally about half-way between that composer and Bernstein. Much of the scoring is quite heavy when the harp is not playing, and in this instance some of the colours tend to run in the acoustic wash. Having said that, this is another crisp and rhythmically alert performance from soloist and orchestra alike, completing a marvellously enjoyable disc

http://classicalmjourney.blogspot.com/2015/10/reinhold-gliere-horn-concerto-bronze.html

Poor old Gliere has had his sensitive knuckles rapped for writing the same kind of music in Soviet Russia that Korngold, Rozsa et al. had free rein to produce in Hollywood. True, much in his post-Revolution scores is far less opulently, or even interestingly, romantic than the inspirations of the three symphonies completed in the first decade of the twentieth century (and honourably championed by Downes and the BBC Philharmonic in previous Chandos issues, 7/93, 7/92 and 5/92). But as a composer with his roots in the nineteenth century – and remember he was old enough to be the child Prokofiev’s first influential tutor in 1902 – he was able to carry on in a revised (or censored) version of his youthful style far more convincingly than did any other composer after the death of Glazunov. The big romantic melodies of The Bronze Horseman rarely seem contrived; for a product of 1949, one of the fallow years following Zhdanov’s infamous conferences, it seems a remarkably honest score.

The real problem is whether it comes close to its Pushkin source, known to every Russian, in which a half-demented young clerk is chased through the streets of St Petersburg by the bronze statue of Peter the Great (take note, Chandos: the cover illustration of a palakh-box bogatyr has no relevance). One of the many questions left unanswered by the accompanying note is what kind of full-length ballet it is, and how the very unchoreographic central premise of the tale was dealt with; for the 45 – minute suite features the terrifying statue not at all, conjuring the dark atmosphere of the tale only in the chromatic introduction and a very unsuccessful slice of storm music for the floods that drown the clerk’s beloved. The rest is lush pas de deux lyricism – with neat thumbnail portraits of the timid hero and his girl a step or two behind Prokofiev’s character-studies for the 1936 Eugene Onegin, but attractive nevertheless – and nationalistic routines for the corps de ballet. The central dancing scene sounds as if it were scored by the enthusiastic percussionist of the Bolshoi (the man who touched up Romeo and Juliet and Cinderella); it needs a slightly more over-the-top performance than this – and why no heady final accelerando as Gliere proposes?

Otherwise, there are subtler touches – a 5/4 scherzo for a fortune-telling scene a la Glazunov or Borodin, plenty of affable Russian woodwind solos (again of a Glazunov-like cut) beautifully taken and the fascination of the placid apotheosis, the anthem-like ”Hymn to the Great City” – fascinating because this is the piece which made Shostakovich shudder as it blared forth from Leningrad railway station loudspeakers. The Horn Concerto is utterly straight, boasts the occasional attractive melody and could have been written in the 1880s (performance date: 1952). The solo part proves undemanding and rarely embroiders its themes, which may be why Richard Watkins has treated himself to a longer cadenza than the one in the score; to be honest, it’s not much more arresting. A disc worth investigating, but only if you’ve already heard Downes’s performances of the symphonies and the superior Red Poppy ballet suite.

Arif MELIKOV (b.1933) Legend of love – ballet in three Acts (1961)
Moscow Radio Symphony Orchestra/Valery Gergiev
rec. 1988 , MELODIYA MELCD1002326
http://melody.su/en/catalog/classic/30696/

Download here in FLAC (my rip) (https://mega.nz/#!QFgmCT7Y!wpusZWzETpB-PYGf1F6OIb2f98FS5SpQV66eY3yNURk)

As one of MusicWeb International’s well-informed readers, you will already know that Valery Gergiev is one of the world’s busiest conductors. You may also be aware that he is one of the best paid musicians of our time. You may even have observed that he really does need a good shave but did you know that he was a child prodigy on the podium?

That rather slipshod standard of presentation is also evident in the inconsistent identification of the orchestra. Both the outer packaging and the English-language section of the booklet notes refer to it as the Moscow Radio Symphony Orchestra. The Russian-language and French-language texts describe it as the Large Symphony Orchestra of USSR Radio and Television. In fact, both attributions are probably accurate because in the Soviet era they were often used interchangeably for the same body – still performing today, incidentally, under yet another name, the Tchaikovsky Symphony Orchestra. Surely, to avoid any possible confusion, Melodiya’s translators ought to have made a consistent decision on how to describe them on any single release.

It is disappointing that such glitches potentially dent our confidence in those booklet notes, for most of the site’s readers will probably not previously have encountered Legend of love, the work that made the 28 years old Melikov’s name when it was first performed by the Kirov Ballet in 1961. Its story had been inspired by a work of the Marxist Turkish poet Nazim Hikmet (1902-1963), for whom the composer was to express, if somewhat mawkishly, his enduring regard in a brief personal memoir published more than forty years later (see here). Although Melikov claims, in that memoir, to have been an apolitical composer, Legend of love’s story certainly conformed to conventional Soviet ideology for it espoused the idea of sacrificing one’s personal happiness for the greater good of society as a whole. In this particular case, young engineer Ferhad resolves the complications of a conventional love triangle by forsaking his opportunity of love with Shirin, beautiful sister of the jealous Queen Mehmene Banu, in favour of drilling through a mountain to bring water to the people.

Melikov was, as already noted, a relatively young and inexperienced composer in 1961 and one, moreover, who was writing in a relatively conservative environment. He was also somewhat constrained by both the general requirements of ballet and the requirement, in this case, to follow a specific storyline. Those factors may help explain why the score of Legend of love does not suggest that, at that stage, he possessed an especially distinctive musical voice. Even though there are certainly moments where Shostakovich, Prokofiev or Khachaturian come to mind, his score remains effective and most certainly fit for its specific purpose. Melikov’s gifts are easily able to comprehend both rhythmically vigorous sections – of which there are more than a few – and overtly lyrical set pieces such as the attractive adagio conclusion to Act 1/Tableau 2 or the Adagio of Ferhad and Shirin and The living couple’s supplication that both feature in Act2/Tableau 3.

Given an accomplished, completely idiomatic performance on these two well-recorded discs, Legend of love will certainly offer pleasure to many listeners who already enjoy, say, the music of Khachaturian’s Spartacus. The more I listened to it, the more I came to appreciate this as, if not an especially original score, at the very least a highly attractive and atmospheric one. I suspect, however, that full appreciation would be helped immensely by experiencing it in a theatre as the accompaniment to a staged production. Some of our more adventurous readers may actually have done that already, for, as recently as October last year, the Bolshoi Ballet relayed a fully staged performance of Legend of love live to cinemas around the world. Perhaps someone who watched it will let us know whether it was that particular performance or another that currently features on YouTube, where it has been broken down into 13 separate clips and offers, like this attractive two-CD set, an opportunity for others to make the acquaintance of Melikov’s most famous and enduring work.

Incidentally, in case you didn’t click on that previous link to the composer’s memoir, let me repeat an anecdote from it that offers a valuable insight into the way in which music was cynically utilised to serve the Soviet Russian state. Having been commissioned to produce a symphony to commemorate the USSR’s 60th anniversary, Melikov submitted one with an atmosphere that was less overtly celebratory than tragic. Unwilling to cancel the well-publicised premiere, the authorities simply came up with their own ingeniously concocted – and utterly fictitious – explanation. They announced, without the composer???s authority or even his foreknowledge, that even during "such a remarkable holiday, the anniversary of our state, Arif Melikov never loses sight of the tragedy of African children dying of hunger, or the threat of nuclear war that hangs over all of humanity".

I would very much appreciate it because it seems to be hard to find.It’s part of the Wagner opera, “Tannh???user”. "Coro de Los Peregrinos" translates as "Pilgrims’ Chorus", which is the most famous melody in “Tannh???user”. (It’s right at the very beginning of the orchestral Overture, in fact.) I have the complete opera available with Sir Georg Solti conducting the Vienna Philharmonic in this thread (http://forums.ffshrine.org/showthread.php?t=208170&highlight=), along with all of Wagner’s other major operas. If you’re interested, just post a request in that thread and I’ll send you some links.

I am looking for the "La Nilsson" Box set in either Flac or MP3

Also every recording of Wagner???s "Ring der Nibelungen" especially from the late 60-70.

Perhaps someone knew a blog or something where I can download them (and not OperaDepot or WagnerDisco).

Thanks!

I once gifted my brother with all of BACH works! He was a great piano musicican. i THINK most of his works are church based.
