Hugo Alfvén - Symphony No.1 in F-minor, Op.7 (1897) 

The painting is called "Burg Scharfenberg at Night" and is painted by Ernst Ferdinand Oehme in 1827.

The timbre of this symphony is in assonance with my heart.

I watched the thumbnail of the video in the bar of recommended videos for me and I said to myself that such image must contain great music, I'm happy to confirm that I wasn't wrong.

A person could do much worse than to devote their free time to great symphonies of the past that remain unacknowledged by those in charge of our musical tastes.

compositeur, chef d'orchestre, violoniste et peintre suédois, né à Stockholm le 1er mai 1872 et mort à Falun le 8 mai 1960. Il est surtout connu pour ses 5 symphonies et ses rhapsodies suédoises, dont la première et célèbre, Midsommarvaka (Nuit de la Saint-Jean).

The f minor symphony is so Joyously heartfelt to me. I really enjoyed the Performance!!!

Hugo Alfven is known mainly for his first swedish rhapsody was able to write several great, severe and beautiful symphonies like this one. This composer should be better known.

Quand le monde fléchit autour de soi, quand les structures d’une civilisation vacillent, il est bon de revenir à ce qui, dans l’histoire, ne fléchit pas, mais au contraire redresse le courage, rassemble les séparés, pacifie sans meurtrir. Il est bon de rappeler que le génie de la création est lui aussi à l’œuvre dans une histoire vouée à la destruction!

Not many people know, but his nephew is the great Scientist and Engineer Hannes Alfven who was a pioneer in studying Plasmas.

I was searching for alfven waves.... I was not disappointed.

I love all of your channels!

What I notice about many of these forgotten symphonies is that they start slow... but this is different.

I am born all Baltic ancestty, half Swedish. This music cries out to me!

Amazingly enough, our local classical music station (KUSC-FM) finally got around to playing this work last night. A much better piece of work (in my humble opinion) then the usual warhouse associted with this composer

Thank you! Your uniting of audio and video in your uploads creates so much atmosphere that it can, at times, be such an experience.

Great Performance!

This theme somehow reminded me of the one of the 1917 (movie) themes, I don't know if it's 1917 main one or not but if you have heard 1917 one it's pretty obvious to find a commonality with some parts of the first movement here.... Nonetheless very great piece of music.

excellent channel!

Good swedish composer! Very wellknown in the scandinavian countries.

17:13好像有口哨聲!? 19:00可能是雲上日出出到一半時; 35:46可能是日落太陽接近或恰接觸地平線時,有皇家進行曲的味道(瑞典?)!?最後的日落盡過程特別輝煌精彩(其他樂段大多傾向沉靜內向 ),聽聽那短笛聲!

¿Qué me cuenta esta sinfonía? What does this symphony tell me? I mean a storytelling.

KD, Do you know what this painting is entitled? Thank you!
