In this video I discuss the somewhat overlooked Siciliana, and how it has influenced countless works.

One of the most beautiful forms : )

@kofiLjunggren Год назад

Ive missed these!

@orangecloudsonanindigoblue9786 Год назад

Another amazing video. I would like to see other forms, such as Tarantella and Gallop.

@caterscarrots3407 Год назад

From what I can tell, the Galop has a similar rhythm to the polonaise and polka both, but is generally faster. And like a lot of polonaises, it tends to be packed with the rhythmic motive, especially in the A section. A trio is common to see, as is rondo form. Like the Polka, it’s generally in 2/4 or some kind of duple meter. Rhythmic motive for a Galop tends to be Dotted eighth Sixteenth

Gotta love a good ol' siciliana. One of my favorites is the slow movement from Haydn's Symphony no. 81.

Ah Papa Haydn : )

Thanks, this was really insightful. I would never have guessed that Stille Nacht is an example of the Siciliana!

Bravissimo! Finalmente ho compreso "la siciliana", spesso trascurata e detta solo come una giga lenta. Ottime le immagini e il montaggio. E tutto molto chiaro. Thanks

The Faure is a beautiful suite indeed.

@keatonlaceymusic Год назад

What is the name of the suite? I’m trying to find it.

@@keatonlaceymusic Here’s the Fauré Suite; it’s from his Opus 80! ☺️ ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KrrdhR6tGB8.htmlsi=noYxfJRiYf0WFXqh

Great video with great examples, I find the Siciliana from Mozarts second piano sonata especially endearing.

@antonbruckner7329 Год назад

Thank you so much, these videos are invaluable. Do you think you could do one on the barcarola and how it differs from the Siciliana?

@Hailey_Paige_1937 7 месяцев назад

Hello! Would you be willing to make videos on Forms such as the Pavane, Forlane, Riggadun, Passacaglia, Toccata, and/or the Gigue? All of these seem like very interesting Forms that I’d love to learn more about!

A useful term to describe the use of stylistic elements in a new context is "musical topic" (somebody should also really get to making a video on that term). Topic theorists I've read also relate the siciliana rhythm and elements to pastoral genres, which are not melancholy at all (though the "pastoral" as style usually has less dotted rhythms).

Thanxalot

@alexp.d3689 Год назад

I wrote a song two years ago something like similar to a Siciliana

@iks.7048 Год назад

You should do a video on La Mantovana.

@alayeldin Год назад

What is the piece in the beginning of the video @ 0:12 ? Is it one of handel's sonatas?

@beccadora3561 Год назад

This is the Serenata movement of Stravinsky’s Pulcinella Suite, which is a Neo-Baroque ballet suite.

@burkhardstackelberg1203 Год назад

Isn't there a Siciliana from an orchestral suite of Bach that is really quick and energetic?

@ellenharold5191 Год назад

Is it like a barcarole or a lullaby?

@neilwalsh1213 Год назад

The Rach!!!!

@BS38114 Год назад

I only know this beautiful piece by Matteo Carcassi. Interesting this has this backround, i tought "Siciliana" was only a song title. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-w4pbApwxQI8.html

It's always funny as an italian to listen how foreigners pronounce italian names.

I did my best 🤷🏻‍♂️

@@MusicaUniversalis that's fine, the video is very good.

@maxgregorycompositions6216 Год назад

I'm sure you pronouncing certain English words is also funny haha.

@71280Carmen Год назад

What about the French? Btw, Musica Universalis, many respects and thanks! And you all pronounce these continental words very well. Except for " musette de cour". Please pronounce it like " coor". If " cur" it will sound like " coeur ( heart)", whereas you intend " cour (court)". All the best and keep on, please!

I don't know who is playing the Bach Siciliano here but it's very heavy handed. Galway often does that and plays Bach as if it's Romantic music. I prefer Rampal's sound. I play it a bit lighter myself; ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-J8mWyRydbUs.html

I can’t use whatever recording I want, I often would prefer to use other recordings, but labels don’t seem to care about fair use laws, and RU-vid content ID is very sophisticated.
