Tchaikovsky - Symphony No.1 "Winter Dreams" (Score) 

What an excellent piece. Tchaikovsky was such a prodigy orchestrator.

One of his greatest works of all time and simply delightful !!!!!

The fourth movement, just wow!!! I loved this piece!!!

This wonderful symphony caused Tchaikovsky much heartache, but it is still a masterpiece and the first symphony written by anyone who hadn't studied in Germany/Austria. Svetlanov does well but the tempo marking for the 2nd movement is a quarter-note (crotchet) = 63, making this much faster than the composer's intended speed. The Finale is a glorious riot and who cares if it occasionally descends into bombasm once in a while? Don't we all? This is truly a remarkable piece by a fledgling composer and so much better than the 3rd, which would follow in 1875.

Having played principal bassoon for both this and the 4th so far, I actually enjoy the 1st a little more... It's a bit more intimate and slightly more demanding in some ways.

35:00 best part

The best orchestra and conductor for Tchaikovsky!!!

Wonderful! Thank you, ZT.

Great recording. Outstanding Performance.

I like the way Tchaikovsky uses the Crash Cymbals at the very end !!!

When those Russian clarinets come in over the horns at 18:54 ❤️

I love this work

Flute sound always reminds me 94.5 KBAY play christmas music until December 25, 2016 at 5:00 PM.

Nice!

Anyone else see (and hear) Stravinsky's Symphony in C leaping off the first page?

どうしても4-6番をきいてしまいますが、実は1-3番に宝石が散りばめられていますよね！

For me only Svetlanov can pull this symphony off. The other interpretations I found were too tame and lacking in Russian verve and full-blooded passion.

I'll not say I did not like the piece. But I waited for something more tragic. The Second Movement says "Land of Desolation, Land of Mists". I did not feel any desolation. I felt like walking through some snowy Meadow and building a snowman.

Прекрасный дирижер.

26 years old. Wow

18:20 sounds almost like Kylo Ren's theme!!!

El segundo movimiento en mi opinión el más hermoso del romanticismo y de toda las sinfonías, sientes que después de la destrucción llegas a eso que los religiosos llaman el paraíso

32:21

I love Tchaikovsky, Dvorak and Holst much more than Bach, Beethoven and Handel , RIP all ❤ ...

In the beginning - like snow flakes falling. Chaikovsky is one of the Greatest Composer in history of Music.

2nd movementoo fast.

I have such a difficultime following these "abbreviated" scores. Would rather see the whole score, then I knowhereveryone is.

When you look at the formal decisions Tchai makes one sees he was mature and inventive . I hate this old stuff and its backward harmonies and the progressions we've heard a million times . thankgod for Schnittke and Ustvolskaya etc. If I was in the audience the 2nd movement here would be a good place to let my dog from out of my coat and take a big yawn and FART!Onlt the Horn saves the 2nd mov. from really being a bore . how boring is this 2nd mov. I'm amazed that Nikolai Rub and some others didn't realize how stupendous the 1st piano concerto was when the composer played it for them .Maybe they were shocked at how good it was and insanely jealous! The question of courseis why are the 2nd and 3rd piano concerti so disinteresting andI think there is a smaller piano concertante piece too thatis insipid that cello with orchestra piece -never cared for it or the Serenade Melancolique . Doesn't matter it will always be more fun than what Arensky tcherepnin and so many others left us. te Scriabin piano concerto ? Why did Richter even bother . He sees what is blind to da rest of us . Heifets recorded Conus ! Well the libraries purchased it I'm sure back then ! This Russian music is too sentimental too long ago just like Rach -We don't need it our sensibilities in this century are moved quite beyond it ! Hooray for Gidon Kremer and his triumphant sponsorship of New and Needed Voices !!!
