I keep coming back to this amazing performance, I listen a lot to Rico Saccani's videos as a conductor of Philharmonic and Opera but also his piano recordings, he was a wonderful pianist before he started conducting. This recording is the best !.
I. Introduzione e Allegro: 0.55 II. Alla tedesco: Allegro moderato e semplice: 14:39 Iii. Andante elegiaco: 21:43 IV. Scherzo: Allegro vivo: 32:03 V. Finale: Allegro con Fulco.Tempo di Polacca: 38:02
@@santiagorodriguez3330 Yes, the video of RS doing the D'Indy Symphonie on a french mountain air is great. I can't believe he conducts it from memory, just like this video.
@@waverly2468 H conducts everything from memory.. did you know he was the winner of Karajan competition and worked with some famous conductors who were his teachers? Among othes Abravanel, Ozawa, N. Boulanger, Bernstein and others.
This theme is the same that appears majestically before the coda. Only half of this theme actually appears. It seems that in the original version of this symphony this theme appeared in its entirety before the coda but the composer cut it in half as we now know it.
In general, quite good, and sometimes even good. But there were unjustified slowdowns in the third movement, and the polyphony in the fugato of the finale was not distinct.
Quite good and welcome as this work is poorly represented on RU-vid. But the reading is very clinical, lacking any real sense of Russian passion. NOTE. The score calls for four piano accordions which have been omitted. To me, an improvement as I can't stand this instrument.
@@creativeoneuk Thank you David, you're quite correct. Haven't listened to either for some time and memory slipped a trifle. As for the accordions, you are not alone in liking them but for me they have always been a pet dislike in any context. And of course, Tchaikovsky was a master of orchestration so who am I to question his choices?
Origins of music unevidenced. Except it is gift to humanity from God the Creator. Music continues in heaven. Discontinues in hell. Jesus Christ died and resurrected for remissions of everybody's pre-existing sins to save from eternal hell. Penalty of sin already paid by Jesus Christ on The Cross. Accept HIM. Be saved from eternal hell. Enter heaven. Enjoy heavenly music. For free.
It came from Tchaikovsky's head. I guess you have a connection with someone who has visited heaven and hell and described them for you. I enjoy music for FREE from RU-vid.
I think the orchestra is talented, but the conductor is insufferable - he makes this masterpiece sound boring and torturous. The music does not sing with the sense of Russian melancholy that is so desperately present in much of Tchaikovsky’s work. One reason is that there is very little contrast in color and texture - everything is just the same dynamic. I wish the faster movements could have more brilliance; the slower movements lonelier and quieter. Moreover, it doesn’t help that the conductor makes a lot of distracting movements and facial contortions. Listen to Karajan if you want the real Tchaikovsky experience.
@@santiagorodriguez3330 You sound like a teenager who can’t take criticism. We both have an opinion, which happens to differ. If we had an intelligent discussion about it, maybe we both could’ve left with a new understanding. But all you did was throw out a name to satisfy your injured sense of pride. Grow up - let’s be adults here.
