Tchaikovsky - None But The Lonely Hearts

- Опубликовано: 15 сен 2024
- Title : Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky,(None But The Lonely Hearts) Songs (6), Op. 6: no 6, None but the lonely heart.
This, one of Tchaikovsky's best-loved vocal pieces, comes from his collection of six songs, Op. 6. The fact that it was composed to a Russian translation of its original German text by Goethe often obscures its membership in the large family of setting of the same poem, "Nur wer die Sehnsucht kennt" (Only he who knows loneliness). One of Mignon's songs from the novel Wilhelm Meister, this text inspired most of the Romantic lieder composers, most notably Schubert, Schumann, and Wolf, to compose some of their most memorable settings; the poem's sense of desolate yearning speaks to the very heart of Romanticism, and Tchaikovsky certainly owed allegiance to that aesthetic.
Tchaikovsky's setting makes use of a syncopated chordal accompaniment; the lack of rhythmic grounding and the chromatic nature of chosen harmonies the inner harmony voices conspire to highlight the restless, disquieted tone of Goethe's text.

Tchaikovsky knew what it was to look on absolute despair, and be able to express it with a depth that can reach down into a person's very soul...how many persons have the courage to open themselves to such feelings.
lovely comment. and, yes, most people don't know how to put their despair into creative work...that's what makes this composer so great --he did this--one of the things. he is wonderful at..
very well said
Its really hard, because you feel a lot of stuff in high levels but you can't find ways to express it bit by bit because its all linked
Nobody does despair and defeat like the Russians. It is a theme that runs through most of their music, literature, art, their self image. It is at the very heart of the Russian Soul. The Russians suffered greatly under the Tsars, and the Russians and the Soviets lost so many people in WWI, The Stalin Purges and Gulags, the Ukrainian famine. and The Great Patriotic War, which saw the Soviet Union and the Russian people lost almost 30 Million people.
"The Red Army was "the main engine of Nazism’s destruction," writes British historian and journalist Max Hastings in "Inferno: The World at War, 1939-1945." The Soviet Union paid the harshest price: though the numbers are not exact, an estimated 26 million Soviet citizens died during World War II, including as many as 11 million soldiers."
To suffer is Russia.Their very suffering is what has given them their resilience, and the magnificent gifts of the hardships the Russian people have overcome through the centuries. Their hardships have made them rich.
If I had another life to live, I would study Russian literature, art, music, and history, and even after 70 years I could probably not tell you that I completely understood the Russian Soul and Psyche. But I would be a better person for having studied the Russian Soul.
How can a Non-Russian ever claim they completely understand what it means to be Russian.
With the Ukrainian War, we are seeing into the Dark Heart of Russia, and the Russian People. Like many peoples, including Americans, they have a self-narrative, that is often out of sync with an objective reality, what others outside of Russia can see.
But for Russians, like other people, their self-narrative is their truth.
"Famously, Winston Churchill defined Russia as "a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma," and his words in 1939 spoke eloquently to the Western sense of Moscow as the "other" - an inscrutable and menacing land that plays by its own rules, usually to the detriment of those who choose more open regulations."

@@lancegallardo5519Thank you for this beautiful comment
Composers like Tchaikovsky, Beethoven, and Mozart had painfully lonely lives. Being lonely and ignored is the worst mental pain there is
cameron posey hmm
Mozart didn't have a lonely life; he was married with two sons. He was sensitive and had profound feeling along with creativity.
Chopin and Schubert.
chopin schubert tchaikovsky beethoven schumann brahms... terrible lifes... but what a fantastic hearts
being physically tortured is much worse then being ignored or lonely.
Mr Tchaikovsky do you need a hug?
He needs one
Who hurt you Pyotr, who hurt you?! :'(
life....
A suppressed life.
Ol' Pyotr Griffin. Hah
+muffin8or there's sort of long line.......
he was secretly gay and it was russia
I imagine this as the background of an old romantic film... in a balcony, in a garden, by the lake shore....where the old trees stand....it is sunset....it is the last meeting....
Beautiful🖤
It plays during the second to last scene of the TV show “The Americans”. Very bittersweet ending between two characters who have been through a lot together.
Putting… something… like this….doesn’t make it…. Meaningful.
"Intermezzo" (Leslie Howard and Ingrid Bergman) used the tune.
The end of the last episode of The Americans (US series )…
the original sad boy
He had a lot to be sad about: being gay in a culture that condemned homosexuality, and being forced to commit suicide by members connected to the Imperial family because he had the temerity to fall in love with someone in the Imperial family.
Forced suicide won
Don't read SIEGE you are a shame to humanity, buying conspiracies to promote your stupid ideas
Don't read SIEGE You are obviously gay
Your homophobic rhetoric does not make you a useful members of society.
Who broke his heart for him to sit down and write such a piece? Can only imagine how beautiful she/he was
I'm flattered.
It’s about a poem.

The more I'm discovering his work, the more I love Tchaikovsky.
It's Tchaikovsky's lonely hearts club band!
+Lisztomaniac brilliant LOL
+Lisztomaniac and he wrote from experience so your moniker is quite accurate about the composer!!
Essa foi ótima Lisztomaniac! Ele era mesmo solitário, e eu também, por isso tenho imensa admiração por Tchaikovsky. Uma lástima um gênio desse por termo à própria vida. Também faço parte da banda desse clube, pois sou músico. Um grande abraço.
Lisztomaniac it seems like it talks.
He would have liked that!
I think Tchaikovsky and Van Gogh would have gotten along quite well. Imagine Tchaikovsky making music inspired by Van Goghs art and vice versa.
That's a really cool thought. That would be neat if a respected artist and respect conductor did something like that together. Like play off one another.
I agree, when I see videos of Tchaikovsky’s work, it often has a photo of art flowing through it, I think a Van Gogh painting would describe the piece much more.
Thing is, though, Van Gogh was only active for 10 years, from 1880 - 1890. Impressionism began in 1860, so I'd think he'd be more likely to hear of Monet than Van Gogh. Also note that Van Gogh was only popular after he died.
Wowwww
Do not mix a masterpiece, the real art
To this ridiculous van goghs
None but the lonely heart
Can know my sadness
Alone and parted
Far from joy and gladness
Heaven's boundless arch I see
Spread about above me
O what a distance dear to one
Who loves me
None but the lonely heart
Can know my sadness
Alone and parted
Far from joy and gladness
Alone and parted far
From joy and gladness
My senses fail
A burning fire
Devours me
None but the lonely heart
Can know my sadness
Now do it in Russian
Just breaking up
Sentences
Does not makes something
A good poem

Nonexistent
- pretentious poem
@TheLastKnyght so damn true! I am actually a published poet! One of the world’s youngest probably! And many people think it’s literally breaking up sentences into rhyming lines!
@@nauthisofmidguard6739 ... bruh what? this is the actual translation for the poem the song is set to, not just a random "pretentious" poem... educate yourself
S Pampillonia there are no words to this music, thus it is not a translation. This music does not need to be translated either, it’s meaning does not need words to express itself.
"He who has not eaten his bread with bitterness who has not spent the dark hours, sobbing and waiting for the hours of tomorrow, does not know you, heavenly powers."
My heart... it aches with those strings. What I love about Tchaikovsky -- and I find this true about Chopin as well -- is that he always seems to understand. No matter how awful or lonely or tear-soaked your day has been, he gets it in his own intangible way. That, to me, is the miracle of music -- its uncanny ability to make you feel just a little less lonely
Tchaïkovski, my man. You're so sensible and expressive. I will thank you my whole life for your little pieces of beauty, which create your music... They're masterpieces, you're a genius. Thank you, in hope you're in peace where you are.
tchaikovsky really nailed the piece with this one. You can feel the pain, loneliness and the longing for love. A lot of us can relate to this especially after a break up. It's an emo classical music lol almost suicidal to be honest haha
Well said Bro, well said.
+j12torts It might have something to do with him being Homosexual in a country where it was illegal.
+yamijanakaratoprak
What the hell are you saying? Just because he was gay doesn't mean he wanted to be a woman.
What total bullshit
yamijanakaratoprak another ignorant dumbass keyboard warrior who doesn't understand a thing about real life
This music sadly relates to me too great. I have no friends, no parties, no girlfriend not yet I hope but this song right now symbolizes my life. I felt I just needed say that.
Trust me whe. I say this, it's not all its cracked up to be, dont worry about it too much, you will be just fine.
I was just going to tell you some cringy shit about analysing death and finding perspective in that loneliness. But I just saw it's been 10 months since you posted this pestilent comment, so now I want to know you are already there. Is everything ok? Did you figured it out? Hope so monsieur
I know the feels, man
Me too I also didn't have any friends 😓😓😓😓
2 years later. How are you doing?
This makes me want to eat ice cream and cry. How I yearn to be loved, and to be thinking of from my love.
what a scenic sorrow....good day.....
good day
I will *****. Thanks friend. Have a delightful day.
I love you brother!
Don't wait, search, she has been searching for you too!
Thanks sta reci. You're awesome.
Take your hats off.. Gentlemen...
Tchaikovsky's versatility is astounding and is what makes him the greatest of them all. Besides ballet, symphonies, concertos, opera, choral, chamber, his magnificent Capriccio Italien and other stand alone compositions, he was the first great modern song writer.
It's amazing how a song can touch the deepest chambers of your heart.
This is one of the only songs that make so emotional, so incredibly sad that I just can’t breathe….I feel like I have this gaping whole in my stomach or all of the air’s been sucked out of me…It’s truly the saddest song I have ever heard. Every single individual note is beautiful and well thought out and they are all so incredibly sad. It’s just layers of sadness on sadness. Til the very very end where the notes start going up a little bit. They seem to become more hopeful. But most of this song is just complete heartbreak and true sadness. I have never heard a song that was so incredibly sad and heartbroken. Whenever I need a good cry I usually just play this song on repeat. I love it so much it’s one of my favorite songs ever but it is so incredibly sad. So I’ll play it like 30 times in a row and I absolutely love it but at the same time I have tears streaming down my face, my face is completely red, my eyes are completely red, I’m clutching my stomach because I can’t breathe and my soul and heart feel broken and empty….
It's actually funny how relatable this is. Often times creative people are isolated from others ironically for the same thing that they appreciate: their unique ideas. The masses, they will gladly look at our movies or books or paintings or what have you, and say "oh that was really interesting and original, I enjoyed it" yet when the person who created these ideas shows up, they call us "eccentric, odd, unsettling" etc. It's enough to make a man bitter and sometimes I think people don't deserve to see our works, if they isolate us and make us feel unwanted for their own entertainment.
I don't know who you are, random commenter, but I see you, and I hope you find happiness someday.
tchaikovsky"s music is so depressing but so beautiful it gets into the heart
I think that Tchaikovsky's expression in this picture completely embodies this piece.
Absolute beauty.
if tchaikovsky had a fun and happy life i would not love this song, but it makes me cry and love it when i see how he used music so well with his feelings, this is a true piece
I've been (still am) going through some troubles in life and when I listen to this song my heart is almost ripped to shreds.
"None but the lonely heart can know my sadness". So damn moving.
it's been 10 years man , you good ?
Glorious soul wrenching melody composed by one whom had experienced far more than his measure of heartache and mental anguish. Tchaikovsky towers above all others as a master of his craft.
The part between 2:12 - 2:30 is almost too much for my musical heart to handle. It's so beautiful.
this is as emo as classical music can get
Listen to Shostakovich's string quartets
@@suspenceful7426 You are right... From 2 years ago, lol!
Listen to O Fortuna
emos wouldn't listen to this too ignorant
clearly you have not listened to mozart's lacrimosa
You can just feel the emotions rolling off this piece of music. It is amazing
Imagine being depressed in the 1800’s, No therapy, no medications, you lived with your pain and sorrow until you eventually killed yourself or lived through the pain up until old age.
I think there was therapy
It makes me want to listen to it my whole life and do nothing else.
I found this piece fairly recently after my father passed away this February and it was a level of emotion surpassed only by being in the room with him that morning he died. Tchaikovsky understands which is why he will forever remain my favorite composer. I wish I could speak with him. Tell him it's okay as he and I shared our grief together.
This music is so exquisite and so very touching.
You can feel the hoplesness in the music
Between this, Valse Sentimentale, Piano Concerto 1, Violin Concerto 1, and Pas De Deux, I would say Tchaikovsky is the composer whose hold on the emotions is stronger than any other. Listening to him brings me back to older times, both in history and in my own life, and brings out a longing I didn't know I could feel.
Tchaikovsky was without the greatest Russian composer of the romantic school.
His ability to evoke deep soul stirring passion with his glorious melodies.
Was he gay? Who gives a damn.
Personally speaking I don't care if he had three heads and wore high heels.
His gift to the world's culture was without equal.
+Ronald Mitaxa Thank you for saying that.
+Liberty Ncognito The master certainly knew the true meaning of the depth and compassion of the human soul
+Ronald Mitaxa Actually yes. He was in fact, gay.
So he was gay you claim. Does that in any way detract from musical genius.
Ronald Mitaxa
No. Not at all.
I think it is part of the inspiration for the loneliness in the tune. The inability to search for love as to do so would make people label you as inhuman.
Actually the translation is "none but the lonely heart can know my sadness." Nothing to do with lonely hearts lol'
Even more emo!
@@sophiatalksmusic3588 exactly
Actually the translation is "Only someone who is familiar with longing knows what suffering I'm going through".
And the translation of the Russian translation that Tchaikovsky used is "For real, only someone who's known the thirst for going out on a date will understand how I have suffered and how I'm suffering".
There is not a single mention of the word "heart" or "hearts" anywhere in either version.
Get your facts straight, mate.
@@alex_evstyugov Does "the thirst for going out on a date" not count as lonely? 'Cause it does in my book
@@alex_evstyugov poetic licence?
Thank God Tschaikowski was able to express this deep melancholy so well and write it down as music. So the 3.4 million people who found this know they’re not alone after all. Listening to this I find clarity.
What God-given talents this earth has been blessed. This melts my heart and makes me very thankful to God for Tchaikovsky
All of you say sadness yet I am still unsure whether this would bring me joy or sadness. My crush recommended me this and wanted me to play. I havent played it for them yet but i sure do hope they like me back
I know we are not together anymore, but this remember me of you and make me feel like we are listening to this at the same time like we were once again, united.
Choosing a painful existence over dilusional happiness comes with the journey for answers...
They say a composer writes objectively no matter what his inner emotions, but here we can say that THIS composer likely felt loneliness of the heart as he composed this enchantment--the haunting melody seems to suggest so.
Yes, Peter Tchaikovsky had a Lonely Heart. Love his music
All the Russian melancholy is in this piece, calm and stormy - This piece is a masterpiece.
He's just so dreamy!
one of the first pieces i learned to play. still play it to this day. as long as my hands hold out, it is one of my absolute favorites.
The heart of man yearns for that of another. Yet doing so risks the heart to pain. Loneliness is only define able once compainonship is experienced. Such as when it is lost the heart truly feels the dreaded pain. And as it howls the unheard cries of despair there is still glimmers of light that may reach. A heart broken may heal and may still find another. The tears shed are needed but fret not. Those tears shall not last forever.
PM beautifully said. I couldn't have said it better myself.
yes true.
Wait, but ummm Tchaikovsky had a wife. Did he not so was he gay in secret or are you people making a joke. If Tchaikovsky was gay that is fine. Please Answer me, it is alright though if no one responds. Thank you.
@@RezaChity-G he did marry a woman to cover up, but they separated after just a couple of weeks though never divorced. he was gay
Totally agree! A running joke is that Tchaikovsky could take 6 notes--only 6 notes--and make the most beautiful waltz/march/adagio/aria anyone's ever heard. He created beauty without being pretentious--the man simply had unending talent with melodies big & small, happy & sad. Snob critics don't take Romantic-era Russian composers seriously because they were late bloomers. They conveniently forget that Tchaikovsky influenced so many composers after him--by their OWN ADMISSION.
what kind of snob critic doesn't take Tchaikovsky seriously lol
Qué composición! Sin ser un conocedor, y valiendome unicamente de mii sencibilidad, considero que esta pieza, con toda seguridad, está en lo más arriba de lo que es contar una historia dramática y conmovedora. Cómo admiro a estos genios que nos dejaron TANTO para pensar, para analizar, amar, sufrir y crecer sentimentalmente. GRACIAS, GENIOS.
Oh the pain.....i can feel
It in this music
...if you have no hope...INVENT! I invent hope...every day..Thank you Tchaikovsky !!
How exactly do you feel a connection between his work and a country?
I agree on the hope part.
Life is pain, hope is false
And there lies beautiful part of human life that we all know life is full of pain but still tries to have hope find small happiness on each corner and continue to live your own life I guess
Tchaikovsky new how to communicate directly from the heart to the heart. I love his Russian melancholy. Rachmaninoff adored Tchaikovsky and this is a reflected in the yearning nostalgia of his music.
This has to be one of the most beautiful yet also one of the most sad songs I have ever heard. There aren’t any lyrics but the music is just so sad. Honestly songs with just instruments are usually more emotional. Instruments have such a wide range. They can sound so happy but they also can sound so sad. And this song really does capture the feeling of loneliness so perfectly. Like someone’s so incredibly lonely and heartbroken because they know they can’t be with the person they love or the person they love is gone forever. Their hearts are yearning to be with them but they know that they never will be able to. It’s one of the only songs that really just breaks my heart. I have cried with countless songs but very few have actually made my heart break and this is definitely one of those few.
I agree. Personally, he is my favorite. His music is so evocative, exciting and compelling all at once. Its beautiful.
Music in general and music such as this has always been and will always be my best of friends...and I have been less lonely because of it's existence in my life.
Oh, Tchaikovsky, the lonely musical heart...
This is really beautiful, just Tchaikovsky can move our souls with this music!
Thanks for upload!
Only one who knows longing
Understands what I suffer!
Alone and separated
From all joy,
I look to the heavens
Towards the other side.
Oh! the one who loves and knows me,
Is far away.
I feel dizzy, and it burns
my insides.
Only one who knows longing
Understands what I suffer!
My father used to sign this beatiful piece in a spanish lyrics. It makes me feel very emotional, can´t believe so kind of beautiness. Piotr, the best ever
I totally know how he felt. I am a very lonely, elderly widower with no prospect for a new love, who lives in a smallish, culturally depressing city, with zero family and very few friends. But, I keep on truckin'. Otherwise, the Devil wins.
This made me cry
Surprised this video isn't censored yet! Transcendental music for a world in turmoil. Thank you.
Along time ago I was lonely and I remember listening to this masterpiece, now nothing changed but at least I understand this piece better.. and I developed some hatred to it similar to that hatred I carry toward the ones who know my sadness..
The poem by Goethe is sublime but only Tchaikovsky could write such a hearbreaking music!
It's been often said that there has never been a composer good enough for Goethe, but if Tchaikovsky didn't accomplish it, he certainly came close
Why do i begin to love listening to classical music more than to todays thirsty kind of music?
Don't tell the homies I'm here
At night when I cant sleep I find myself returning to this song. After being sad and angry all day I listen to his music and dwell on the feelings it brings up.
This is probably my favorite Goethe setting [though Schubert, Mendelssohn and Mahler come close]. The solo violin is a phenomenal voice substitute. Very nice arrangement.
i'm a three month old african baby and i like this music give me thumbs!
I first heard None but the Lonely Heart nearly 30 years ago when I was in high school, and I love it all along (from China)
I salute this wonderful human being for when he looked down to the abyss he didnt come back empty handed , his tongue was not knotted and his limbs didn't go numb ,instead he came back to us bearing the gift of healing
beautiful comment
He really was the father of haunting music ❤️
First time I hear this and it's so beautiful! my mind paired it with ballet and it was even more beautiful... If I were a dancer I would've stood up to dance
One of my favourite pieces of music.
I'm not lonely until I hear this beautiful work.
I can hear the sound of my soul. Thanks Tchaikovsky !
Nostalgia, tristezza, passione e un'incredibile dolcezza caratterizza la musica di questo straordinario compositore. Una musica raffinatissima con armonie e polifonia di livello elevatissimo.
I started loving this music when I was only eight years old, by 1957, when my father bought a LP with it.
awwww.
I'm 16 & I love classical music!
The climax at 2:22 makes my heart soar! So much emotion in that one moment!
Nothing moves the entire mind, body, and soul like classical music. Every other type of music is a drug but classical music is a natural high (or low).
I adore this song. It reminds of a cold snowy day in Siberia or Alaska. Dark and beautiful.
it...touches my soul... like no one has done before...and yet cant stop listening to him...what is wrong with me?
Philip and Elizabeth Jennings...
I am sorry but I was crying to this beautiful music it sounds pretty good
Such a great piece that soundtracks the end of one of the greatest shows ever made, The Americans. Beautiful, aching, and poignant.
Music of Heaven.
Causing calm and rest.
fantastic.
Não consigo parar de ouvir essa maravilha. Thank you very much .
Only Tchaikovsky can understand my heart.
This makes me think of someone walking alone in the streets at night
Oh how my heart sings the perfect song for her.
No words will ever describe the feelings Tchaikovsky provokes
from his beautiful works. I thank you.
i'm crying like crazy
There, there. Hush, my child. *pats head*
Awww it's ok... Smoke some weed
This one is a banger. Crying in the club
It is exquisite, if I chose just one of his compositions it would be this one!
Lucky I don't listen only to one style of music. It's the first time I'm listening Tchaikovsky, really touching song.
I just simply cannot understand WHY someone had given a thumbs down for this .. guess there's no pleasing in some
Marvelous music... almost like a piece of Tchaikovsky's own heart!!!
