I was a professional symphony orchestra musician for 38 years, and I can't recall ever having played anything by this excellent composer. I am enjoying listening to this work.
Very nice,this is almost as good as the vinyl record I first heard it from when I was 5, I don't remember who made the recording,but I remember at west point my dad would turn all the lights off at night and then play these wonderfull records. he would tell us the story behind the music and imagination would run riot in our brains, very y heavy on the russian romanticism and the French impressionists, this has always been one of my favorites, because it's got a pirate lol,thank you so much for putting this out
Far removed from my early and late piano lessons for that matter, I am sure I heard the Volga Boatman melody in those early days for being bewildered by trying to endure piano practice. Some melodies though get re-stirred as I did manage to keep listening to great music even though I resisted learning how to play it.
@@Leha900 Thats a lie. In all documents starting fron 15 century russians are calles russian. And, by the way, "ukrainians" appear only in late19 century. what a misfortune))
@@MeanMan84 I believe Ivan lV was proclaimed Tsar of all Russia in the mid 15th c. so I guess that was when the term Russia came into being to describe the whole country at that time.

Очень рада,что всем нравится музыка Александра Константиновича Глазунова
He was just 19 when he was composing such a miraculous poem. This is my Glazunov favorite work,
21.10.09
i want to listen to more Glazunov after hearing this fine work.
Then listen to his FINNISH FANTASY!
Stupenda registrazione di Chandos con la sublime direzione di Jarvi e l'interpretazione e il suono eccezionale della RSNO.
Meraviglioso post.
This work is marvelously orchestrated. Top-shelf stuff.
The RSNO and Jarvi are the greatest combo in CD history 👍

What a thoughtful and nice father you had.
I like how he intentionally used some of the melody of the Song of the Volga Boatmen in the opening.
Really great piece
"Temple Wine is fine. Drink it anytime" radio commercial of some time ago. :) Sung to the "Song of the Volga Boatmen" tune.
"Temple wine is fine. Drink it any time" radio jingle.
Bravo super music

Then you must love the Russian Army Choir version.....Huuuuuge!
Song is "Yo! Heave Ho!"
exquisito, divino...
It creates the atmosphere of the 16th´s russian society. So I am able to imagine those adventures in the steppes
There was moscovian atmosphere in the 16-th century, Horde in fact. "Russian" appears in the 18th century on the whim of Peter the Great.

@@TheVaughan5 No. The term Rus was used to describe our country even from Ivan III, not Ivan IV, in the late 15 century
雖然流行音樂可能有新奇的創新與噱頭,但古典(經典)音樂總是具有豐富的變奏,和聲與對位!
I like this work! From 13:15, It looks like a blizzard.
Compare the initial theme here with theme of the Russian Rhapsody by Bortkiewicz!!
ヤルヴィの指揮は、元気があって、当初感じてた陰鬱さはありませんでした。

Came here because of the book "O Ano da Morte de Ricardo Reis". Was not disappointed.
