武満さんの素晴らしい作品を、愛してくれる方々がこれだけ世界中にいる事の嬉しさ…😊

This is crazy I was playing one of your videos and lay on bed, then I felt asleep and dreamed for about 1 hours, the playlist kept on playing. I only remember the end of the dream now where I was running with my cousin, we were chased by some people I don't know why. We are running in his hometown where I used to go with my family to visit him when I was young. While we were running I saw one of the old telephone boots which are now completely nowhere to be found. When I saw this telephone boot I screamed to him "NOSTALGIA!", then I woke up. I was about to reach my computer to turn off the music and realized the current video title was Nostalghia. I am really surprised. Now I have the actual certainty that (classical) music is not just about trying to order sounds together to create something beautiful and apply a random title just to finalise it. These artists are really listening to their inner voice and using instruments to express thoughts and memories on the outside. Clearly this one entered in my dream and have talked to me about Nostalgia.

We can hear a very subtle interplay between the violin solo and the string orchestra. This is a noticeable exception in Takemitsu's works. Takemitsu LOVES the subtle merging/opposition of quite different sonorities (instruments/groups). The harmony is led by synthetic modes, as most often in Takemitsu's works.❤‍🩹❤‍🩹❤‍🩹❤🧡💛💚💜🤎💜💚💛🧡❤❤‍🩹❤‍🩹❤‍🩹

SE EU NUNCA TIVESSE SENTIDO NOSTALGIA NA VIDA ,COMO IRIA PERCEPCIONAR ESTA OBRA?

I am going to see this performed by Anne-Sophie Mutter tonight and tomorrow at Boston Symphony Hall! It is so beautiful.

I am loving this composer more and more

The whole of this sound architecture is a flight into the Sublime. It's a very beautiful music played with exceptional skill and an impressive inner feeling. A delightful listening and therapeutic experience

Surely im not the first to hear the sound of berg (especially the violin concerto) moving through this, but made takemitsus own voice

Nel mezzo del cammin di nostra vita ........

Es gibt einen Film von Tarkowski, der ebenfalls so heißt und von der Stimmung her gut mit der Musik harmoniert - die Musik gefällt mir 🧡💛🤍

Une découverte

A ARTE É ISSO MESMO, CADA UM, A EXPERIÊNCIA EM FUNÇÃO DO SEU UNIVERSO PESSOAL...

wonderful music... misterious... sad... anxiety... despair... hopelessness...

根源郷愁・NOSTALGIA-AVANGARDE

What an enchanting piece of music

Thank you very much for the upload,Takemitsu was one the most original, imaginative, subtle and versatile composers of the 20th century.

A direct descendent of the Berg Violin Concerto. It has the same sensitivity to color and sensuousness. I keep expecting to hear the Bach chorale.....

Fabulous. Super modern. Lush, logical, lucid, lovely.

Präzise und wunderschöne Interpretation dieses ein bisschen mysteriösen Konzerts mit seidigem Ton der Solovioline und perfekt entsprechenden Töne anderer Instrumente. Der geniale Maestro dirigiert das kompakte und ausgezeichnete Ensemble im gut phrasierten Tempo mit effektiv kontrollierter Dynamik. Echt faszinierend!

This symphony harms my ears with delicious melodies.

Me encanta la música de Toru Takemitsu, uno de los mejores compositores del siglo XX. Establece como nadie un puente entre la música tradicional japonesa y la occidental. Merece la pena conocer su obra. En estos momentos, año dual España-Japón, es buen momento para conocerla. Arigato

This is such a brilliant piece of music head and shoulders above some of his other works.

Toru Takemitsu is one of the greatest composers of our age ! Thanks a lot

C'est ... c'est ... au delà de ce mot : magnifique !🙏

Reminiscencing the times I spent with my brother.

Precise and beautiful performance of this somewhat mysterious concerto with silky sound of the violin solo and perfectly corresponding sound of the other instruments. The brilliant Maestro directs the compact and excellent ensemble in a ell-phrased tempo with effectively controlled dynamics. Truly fascinating!

and a fantastic performance !

In memory of Andrei Tarkovskij

beautiful.

Un músico maravilloso 👏👏👏

!!!Que hermosa música ,está llena de poesia y sensibilidad .!!! .

I think he loves Mahler and alban berg, The effect of Mahler 9 is obvious , But very beautiful and true indeed It shows emptiness, fear, The end of era, greed, anything, World war , Hysteria...anything

Unique harmonic structures. Lovely music

Sublime

É extremamente lindo mesmo. Agradeço este canal por me proporcionar uma incrível variedade de grandes compositores como este.

Beautiful, although 30 years apart it is quite similar to his sublime 'Requiem for Strings' ❤

Beautiful.

Cuando la belleza se manifiesta....

¡awesome! and very sad

Благодарю

ADORO OUVIR

Thank you.

божественно!

There is the sound of the impermanence of all things in this world . It represents the principle that the potentate falls by all means . From Tokyo in Japan Which national are you watching this video ？

indeed, it's a great piece of music and a wonderful performance ! listen also to benjamin britten "lachrymae"....!

it sounds very much like variations around wagner's tristan and isolde opening

Beauty is sometimes complex... like life

This is the ultimate reference for nice dissonance

I only understand the world through pop culture references, so this reminds me of Dead Space 2.

Beautiful, very reminiscent of Berg, but still with its own character and imagery, agreed there. Which language is the spelling of the title from, Italian?

Masterpiece

the dark side of nostalghia

Wonderful... Anyone have/know where I can hear a recording of Spectral Canticle, his double concerto for violin, guitar, and orchestra? Can't find it anywhere

Lo acabo de descubrir y me encanta. Me compraré algún disco. ¿Alguna recomendación?

Good film and ambient music

does anyone has the score of this masterpiece?

Bioshock sounds a lot like this.

sarebbe piaciuta ad #Hitchcock

8:14

This would be great for a resident evil or silent hill game!

sasha king crimson !

Not saying if I like or not: the composition has not any eastern or asian straits.

Beautiful interpretation, but the piece is imitation Berg. I find that Takemitsu explores and is successful in all types of genres of classical music, but I'm still looking for his personal, pieces that reflect his inner self. Does he have one?

Sound of Wagner.
