  • Arthur Honegger (10 March 1892 - 27 November 1955) was a Swiss composer, who was born in France and lived a large part of his life in Paris. He was a member of Les Six. His most frequently performed work is probably the orchestral work Pacific 231, which was inspired by the sound of a steam locomotive.
    Symphony No. 5 H 202 (1950)
    Grave
    Allegretto - Adagio - Allegretto - Adagio - Allegretto
    Allegro marcato
    The Danish National Radio Symphony Orchestra conducted by Neeme Järvi
    Its subtitle Di tre re is a reference to the D (re) played by the solo timpani and basses at the end of each movement. It was commissioned by the Natalie Koussevitzky Foundation and first performed on March 9, 1951, by the Boston Symphony Orchestra under Charles Munch.

    It's my first Honegger's work which I heard still 50 years ago. And this symphony remains my most love his music.

    Utterly stunning masterpiece. Haunting, the dark opening, brooding adagio in the second movement and ambivalent ending. Honegger was one of the twentieth centuries greatest symphonists.

    This is definitely a Symphony to watch. It´s beautiful to see how the melodic lines float like leaves in the water on a harmonic base in a contrapuntal wave.

    Honegger never heard on radio, yet I've known his music for decades. Like Hindemith, one of my favorites. So much to explore, need to hear Villalobos.

    This last symphny is called 'Di tre Re" in reason of the three D which open each movement, It is rather massive. It was composed during the last years of the composer, when he became more and more pessimistic.Nevertheless, he put much energy in his composition. This can be felt in the mood of this symphony, which demands to be listened carefully. Do not be afraid of ff or dissonances ! Hear the dynamics of the whole.

    Thank you for sharing this! Good interpretation of this, and Pacific 231, by Jarvi.

    Honegger had an ill heart when he wrote this and some commentators have said that the extreme rhythms of the last movement might have been with the mechanics of the human heart in mind. Not sure if I agree with that, especially that he used jarring rhythms throughout his career, but a very haunting piece of work nevertheless.
    Thanks for including the score! I hadn't seen it in a while.

    I greatly appreciate posting of the score along with the performance. But I believe this is not the best performance of this work. It is well played and the sound is excellent. But it often lacks intensity especially in the third movement. The finest performance I know of is by Igor Markevitch conducting an excellent Lamoreaux Orchestra on a good quality mono recording by DG The recording by Serge Baudo conducting the Czech Philharmonic on Supraphon is also excellent

      I have always taken this to refer to the 3 Ds (one at the end of each movement) played on the timpani, the only notes they have in the whole symphony (marked "ad lib." in the score, but better included than not).

      @@FleuveAlphee For starters, the sentence was meant as satire; both French people have similar influences, however, Lilli wrote Psalm 129, which was earlier than Honegger, written in the same key, same chords, similar progressions.... It was merely an observational joke. Secondly, the phrase 'extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence' means absolutely nothing. Not to be annoying/aggressive, but I can't tell by your writing whether that was meant as an attack. If yes, well, the above perfectly rebuts that. If not, well, I'm sorry for misinterpreting the meaning behind your message. :')

      @@FleuveAlphee Nonetheless, it wouldn't be that far of a stretch to claim Honegger knew of Boulanger's work. Boulanger was practically a transitional period in music... inspiring even Poulenc!
