Schnittke Violin Sonata No. 2, "Quasi Una Sonata" (Mints, Apekisheva)

- Schnittke's second sonata for violin and piano (1968) was his first "polystylistic" work. He subtitled it "Quasi una sonata," which means "like a sonata," or "in the manner of a sonata." Schnittke called it "a sort of borderline case of sonata form," explaining that it was, in a sense, about the process of writing a sonata. "The form is called into question; it seems not to be achieved - and then the sonata is already over." He also called it "a report of the impossibility of the sonata."
The "impossibility of the sonata" for a composer steeped in atonality is that sonata form is based on tonality: it is, in essence, a journey from tonic key to the dominant key and back again. A composer who eschews the whole idea of key is likely to eschew the idea of the sonata. Indeed, after years of avoiding major and minor chords, Schnittke was changing course significantly. "The Sonata begins with a loud, short G-minor triad. That was very important for me," he wrote, "after a very long period of writing exclusively serial music. Suddenly I had to write this piece, without rules of construction. It was, so to speak, a mutiny against everything else. There is a continual exchange between this triad and a dissonant violin chord: the piece seems to stammer. Then, suddenly, the motif B-A-C-H (B-flat, A, C, B-natural) appears…at the end it stands out clearly as the solution. The solution consists of the fact that nothing is solved," concluded Schnittke, since both the minor chord and the atonal material "remain as contrasting elements which are balanced against each other."

Masterpiece. Beethovenian in scope and artistic ambition. Beautiful work. Goosebumps all the way!
出会いは30年前。ラジオから流れてきたこの曲に心奪われ、全身に電撃を浴びたような衝撃を受けた。それ以来耳の奥の方で鳴り続け、探しに探してやっと10年前にCDを見つけ購入できた。
こんなにも刺激的で魂が揺さぶられる曲はあるだろうか!?言いしれぬ不安に襲われた時、八方塞がりでどうしていいのか分からなくなって悩んでいる時、この曲が気持ちに同調しようとしてくれるかのように魂を揺さぶってくれる。シュニトケの他の作品も素晴らしいのがたくさんありますが、これは唯一無二でベストワンです! 素晴らしい楽曲をこの世に産み落としてくれてありがとう、Schnittke!
6:41 violin score looks like your electrocardiogram when you're listening to this sonata))
Вся моя измученная душа
Это супер круто! Шнитке - великий композитор. Величайший!
This is very Beautiful music.
Right now I heard Burnstein and that musk was harmonious in the same way as this music from the Schnittek. It just two different ways to access the music. Of course it is determined by the culture, but basically the music from Burnstain and Schnittke is the same. They want the same, but it does it with different means.
This has nothing to do with 'Prokofiev'. And here you do not get the boring slow version as with Shostakovich. Here you get a nerve and soul that is Schnittke, and to an extent that is amazing.
This is genius music is second to none. Here you get Schnittke in full swing and with all the shifts and disharmonies that are made for him.
Thanks for sharing this beautiful piece of music with others. Please list more of this beautiful music. It is important that we hear it!!!!
Шнитке гений в этой сонате он ясно показал столкновение атональной и тональной музыки как борьбу и что в итоге победил этот соль минорный аккорд

19:35 Piano BANGS
Whatever Schnittke does in the Andante marking at 14:50 is absolutely sublime.. love the references from his first violin sonata too!
Also the B-A-C-H theme
thank you 4 this upload pal!!!!
11:46 WTFH WAS SCHNITTKE THINKING!!!!
How to even read this?! 😂
Wov, it's great music. So clear and modern. You become high of this amazing music. Simply the best. Have now heard it many time and can see that it is fantastic.
The transcendent music that gives it pure and good sound without prejudice. I get nice clear and clean music here without any change. Here the pure musical value and quality is obtained in the fantastic as we all want.
Great music that I will return to and hear many times in the future. Ever heard as new music.
Thank you for sheering this music with us!
very good
16:42 haha he quotes "the glass harmonica", one of his own composition. :-)
12:31 also
And a little correction:
"Quasi a Sonata" means "Almost a Sonata"
resembling a sonata
I got it cuz music is italian from (i think) and the words are italian (i am italian too)
The Twilight Zone and The Outer Limits got together and had a baby. Here is their love child at two years old as it learns to speak.
I'm glad to see that you afford other composers besides Prokofiev. Schnittke was influenced a lot by him, so it seems to me a right choice!
Could I ask you which are your plans for the future?
Unfortunately, I'm actually quite busy at the moment, so I won't be able to tell you the when and what of my next video(s).

12:31 BACH
and 14:49
and a lot of other places. subject for the fugato
and 6:06
And played in inversion (H-C-A-B) at 13:11
and 3:42 :D
18:46
Oddly, if played on an untuned violin, it sounds like Paganini.
16:57 quotation of Beethoven op. 35 m. 11-17
19:46 schnittke, a dark, dramatic composer
Just wow
10:00 Sound engineers accidentally cut off 1 quaver beat
Wait no, it sounds like they chose to omit that one quaver beat for some reason
6:43
0:53
12’22 seems to be misread. The dynamics aren’t clear, and the pianist doesn’t play the cluster chords as written
Is there a misreading at 19’06 ? Shouldn’t the right hand be up an octave?
No comment....
The rhythm seems wrong at 10:01 is the pianist missing a quaver rest?
The pianist missed the first eight pause in the 3rd bar of the frame.
this is a first listen by a fervent devotee of schnittkes music. and while i am enjoying it greatly i want to reserve judgement on its importance in the schnittke corpus. i am coming to the conclusion that schnittke uses the smaller musical groupings to work out his larger scale polystylistic compositions. at best this is a parody of webern with none of the emotive power
that's only one and a small piece of this composition. moreso he is contemplating some of the more distinctive styles of modernism which he had not incorporated yet into his polystylistic larger works.
Sounds like how I sounded when I first started to play the violin.
You must be a natural-born master if you were able to play some of these advanced techniques early on.
Ёбаная жесть...
You don't need a metronome to keep time. You need a hourglass.
I can't understand this type of music, how can this be beautiful to anyone
As a person who thoroughly enjoys the occasional avant guard composer and atonal peices, i can truly say i dislike almost all of schnittkes works. You have brilliant innovators like george crumb and the like who are fantastic, and then this. It just sound like he wants to be ahead of the time so bad and he fails miserably in my opinion. Its cheap music.
Although, his a capella choral works are all amazing.
@@cobblestonegenerator it is not cheap why cheap? Because it sounds minimalistic and catchy in some parts?
those dramatic silence and those graphical patterns between notes is not only experimental but sounds great.
Whether a piece of art is "beautiful" is not always the point. Art is something created to express or evoke emotion, or to convey a message. It's not required for it to be pretty or even easy for you to understand.
i think one of the main focuses of music like schnittke is to advance notation and tonality. this what i would call the embodiment of experimentality. its ok if you dont like it, but respect others opinions.
Pianist doesn’t follow dynamics at 16:26 (ignores crescendo)
WTF??
Hell yeah!
So bad it's the butt of jokes and an object of scorn. All the cool violin sonatas are laughing at you.
I dunno. After listening to this piece, all those "cool" violin sonatas are lookin' kind of boring right about now...
what the hell was that ? THIS IS NOT EVEN MUSIC !!
That is a rather bold statement.
Would you care to elaborate?
"One cannot dismiss music that he dislikes by labeling it cacophony." -Igor Stravinsky
most people won’t understand this kind of music
@@fredericchopin6445 who cares about "most people"! Music is inherently subjective- that's what makes it so fun! :)
Elizabeth F. that’s my point. no one should criticize the music before analysing it in depth. it’s very subjective.
🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Impossible to listen
