I had the good fortune to hear this Godly creation since birth and maybe before. It was a favorite of my parents. I have never nor will ever tire of it. I'm 69 at this posting. This beloved work has been a celebration and refuge. I hope to hear this in the next phase of existence.
Our orchestra performed this piece when I was in high school some 55 years ago. I've always been grateful that our director had enough faith in the ability of his students to perform music of this level. By the way, I was the first clarinet.
A high school project it's always awesome and any interpretation it's fine because you still don't have a style, you just try to perfect, to evolve. A professional orchestra it's a completely different thing. I would.like to thank you for sharing your experience, I am very happy that this composition it's (or at least was) used in secondary education system. Romanian Rhapodies of Enescu are a mandatory repertoir of every major orchestra in the world, but not mandatory in education systems. Your professor was very smart. If you keep in touch with him, please address him many thanks from a complete stranger for his efforts and his good tastes! :)
Our family became acquainted with this piece when it was selected for the all state orchestra. It gave our piccolo player quite a challenge. But an excellent introduction to some really exciting music and he did a great job. The piccolo part is forever in my memory I heard it so many times in practice!
The London Symphony Orchestra bc plays the ROMANIAN RHAPSODY No 1 like no one else. Most exciting beautiful orchestrated classical music ever., by composer George Enescu.
“Enesco était de ces êtres aux dons trop nombreux pour une seule existence. Il fut l’un des deux ou trois plus grands violonistes de sa ganération, le plus sensible, le plus profondément musical, un chef d’orchestre, un pianiste qui aurait acquis la même célébrité au clavier ou avec sa baguette qu’avec son archet s’il s’y était davantage consacré, un merveilleux professeur, d’une culture universelle, d’une noblesse d’âme que l’on retrouve chez son élève de prédilection, son fils artistique, Yehudi Menuhin ». (Lucien Rebatet)
Quand j'était toute petite, ma Marraine la musique classique ... ce qui m'a amenée qu'à soixante et des ans ... c'est toujours le même bonheur d'entendre certaines Rhapsodies et celle-ci principalement ...
Extraordinary... supernatural... divine performance! True, sublime genius of Enescu coupled with stunning talent in the London Symphony under Antal Dorat. Thank you!
Ouch! The tempo it's very slow! Also, though Dorati was a good conductor, he lack the 2 essential characterisrics for a very good performance: a good tempo So the audience be astonished (as a non-Romanian, he understood nothing so the tempo it's completely awful) and a good interpretation (though London Symph Orch only for what the conductor wanted). In my honest opinion your option it's a poor one.

Congratulations Gilda.What you have shown in this video is 0.01 of the beauties of ROMANIA. For Laraine Fergenson;We all Romanians of good well waiting for you whith love to see our gorgeous country.But you must stay a while to see all unique beauties of ROMANIA!
This is a true Romanian Rhapsody. And it fits to what rapture is defined as. No wonder this is one of the best Romanian Rhapsody ever. And I have a paternal cousin who’s married to a Romanian woman. This happened to be his second marriage after losing his first wife at a young age to a brain tumor (glioblastoma). So he never had kids.
One of the best versions of this work I have ever heard. It makes me think about Grand Prix racing, very fast and bitterly contested. Always a thrill to listen to. I never get tired of this.
Enjoy the music and the pictures, but do not go there. Romania used to be a great country till the first soviets set foot in 1944. It's gone downhill ever since. You can not imagine the level of crime and corruption. Google the government sponsored massacre of stray dogs and the level of cruelty will turn your stomach. And yes, I was born and raised there, and no way I will ever set foot in that barbaric filth hole, unless its people decide do join the civilized world. Just my opinion.
I think my great grandmother came from Romania. Sorry it has gone downhill. But you say it was great until 1944. What was happening during the years of WWII?
Laraine Fergenson Well, Romania was Germany's ally, so they fought the soviets on the Eastern front. With the exception of the British-American bombing of the oil fields and the capital, not much happened, at least compared with other countries. The vast majority of German soldiers that were being housed in villages in people's homes were very well behaved; when the soviets came over, the rapes, killings, robberies began. Once Romania joined the soviets, it was the Germans bombing Romania...After the war, the red cancer started to grow roots in the country. If before the war Romania was a place to go to, with Bucharest rightfully nick named Little Paris, after 1945 it became the place people were trying to escape
***** Romania's natural beauty was never questioned, and I think Maramures and other unmolested (deforestation) areas are breathtaking places to see. Maramures may be indeed safer than the big cities. But police and medic response in general is not at par with other Western countries
For Laraine Fergenson;We all Romanians of good well waiting for you whith love to see our gorgeous country.But you must stay a while to see all unique beauties of ROMANIA!

Beautiful. I used to play the opening and first theme on my synthesizer and it sounded VERY good! It worked on a DX-7 and also on an M-1 with an orchestral card.
Cine simte românește este o piesă ce te face să plângi....... și să râzi ! Iată cum e românul: figură tragică și jucăușă; face haz de necaz ! Genialul Enescu a sintetizat în aceste splendide acorduri scrise la vârsta de 18 ani, chintesența acestui neam. Păcat că imaginile nu sunt în acord cu muzica. Pt era ceaușistă merge altă muzica....
... In Romanian Rhapsody no. 1, George Enescu uses at the beginning of the musical work, as a leitmotif, some chords from a popular song entitled "I have a LEU (lion) and I want to drink it" (LEU- ul is the national currency in Romania ... the Bulgarians have the same name as the national currency - LEVA -) ... there is this song on RUclips in a beautiful interpretation made by Fanica & Damian Luca...
Let's cut to the chase: Enescu himself said that only Romanians can play this in the right way. I tend to agree, thought this performance it's quite good (except the tempo - too slow - and, especially, the feeling). Listen the following version, the best one in many's opinion: George Enescu Philharmonic Orchestra (formed only by Romanians), conducted by Sergiu Celibidache (one of the best conductors ever, Romanian) in Romanian Athaeneum (a Concert Hall in Bucharest, Romania, with one of the best acoustics in the world) from 1978. Just listen any versions you want, you will catch the differencies (HUGE ones): ruclips.net/video/m8Y5x1N_aIg/видео.html
Thanks. I listened to your link of the Celibidache version and I prefer the "wrong" way on this Dorati LSO recording. I think the energy here crackles and sparkles. But absolutely interesting to hear the true Romanian flavor. Mr. Dorati was born in Hungary if that counts for anything.
@@variegatus it's all good, de gustibus et coloribus non discutandum as some ancients would say. For us Romanians.. it needs to be livelier, it needs to have a spring to it, a spark of ephemeral happiness. For the sadder parts of life we have the "doina", Enescu felt we needed the rhapsody to counterbalance our melancholic side and for us at least he was perfectly right. Cheers!
It's a shame that Antal Dorati never gained the fame that Solti, Karajan and Bernstein did. He was as great a leader as any of them. His Haydn symphonic cycle is still groundbreaking.
Delicate editing, beautiful presentation, an enjoyable work and admirable masterpiece, dear friend, thanks for sharing. Have a joyful day! Much Joy and Happiness to you Always! ♥♥ ~ Maggie ~ ♥♥
Do not know when I first heard this music. It seems it has been a part of my music listening experience since a boy. However, I never connected it to the composer until now. Opportunities to learn abound through the years.
6:10 reminds me of a Greek folk song Karotseri Trava. The similarity is very interesting. As interesting as the culture that all balkan nations share.. Love to Romania 🇷🇴🇬🇷
Very good decision fans, you are invited to pull out your wisdom and start to connect people enjoying to explore the Holy Creation in Romania wild locations of a kind
Beautiful shots all around. Antal Dorati was a wonderful conductor! I love many of the pieces composed by Enescu. I believe that he studied at the Sorbonne in Paris?
Actually it's "Romanian" not Roumanian and his name is "George Enescu" not Georges Enesco - we may not be a great civilised country but this is one of ours and civilization's greatest composers, so please do show some respect in getting his name and ethnicity correct.
Crede-mă, e mai bine să scrie Roumanian decât Romanian. Şi mult mai corect, adevărata noastră identitate este rumân, nu român, cum ne-au băgat în cap aşa-zişii istorici latinişti, slugile străinilor.
I had a Great Uncle, who was Hungarian, but I never saw or talked to him in my lifetime. I couldn't travel there during my time in Europe ('70-'72), when I was in the US Army. I like Liszt';s Hungarian Rhapsodies a lot, and heard this on an album I have to this day. It is difficult to rank any of them, since all are beautiful. Thanks for posting this one. It was a pleasure to hear it again.
Thank you for your kind comment. I agree that all of the Hungarian Rhapsodies by Liszt are very beautiful. My favorites are Nos. 3 and 5. I edited a video for No. 3 some years ago, but then my father died, and suddenly listening to classical music made me too sad because it reminded me of my loss (the same with films I used to watch with my dad). After four years I feel somewhat better, so I hope to find the video file in storage and upload it eventually or maybe create a whole new one now that I have more image sources.
@@laurapoenaru3047 I'm sorry that the OP thought that this was one of Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsodies. I didn't catch that. I was just discussing rhapsodies -- the title clearly states that it is a Romanian Rhapsody by George Enescu, not Hungarian.
Well not the most illustrative pictures but fine, why not. What this video should have been about: * Hora dance * Forests fly by's (in the music you can hear the different animals making a symphony of sounds; something Enescu enjoyed very much when he came in Romania during the summer to compose and be inspired) * Villages: the rural life that Enescu grew with (albeit, in a middle to upper class setting back then) * Various settings from the ordinary life of peasants, food, dances, wedding and music
I would need a much larger budget to create the kind of video most people want. And yet I see many of these classical music videos with just one still photo and nobody complains.
The music is fine, but I am sorry to say that the some of the scenes seem to me quite unadequate. I am sure that there are many beautiful landscapes in Romania, that could make an excellent background for this music.
Ei bine, compozitorul a murit singur și sărac în Franța. În țară se instalaseră comuniștii bolșevici, care au devastat-o; au distrus elita culturală-politică și tot spiritul vremii în care s-a format G Enescu. Sunt total nepotrivite imaginile cu muzica. Acordurile grave sugereaza situația grea în care se află țara, la granița a 3 mari imperii, mereu amenințătoare.
Its very clear that are few pictures from Serbia because Danube river its a naturat border between Romania (a Latin alphabet country) and Serbia & Bulgaria (Cyrillic alphabet countries)... i wrote "all images" like a funny reply to all those who wrote that "not all images":)... the beautiful places are for those who know how to appreciate!!!
Thanks for the tip, even though I am a Romanian born and raised here the US, I do know more Serbians than I do Romanians. But thank you anyway/hvala :-)
That's the correct ortography today, but when the piece was written, the English spelling of the time alternated between "u" and "ou" (depending on whether the writer wanted to align with French).
@@kisslas Usually, in any language, a person's name was and it is written as that person wants to. For example, Eugen Ionescu (the Theater of Absurd creator), during his fled to France, used as his name Eugene Ionesco. Enescu absolutely never express his intend to change his name. So whomever changed his name spelling did an illegality in International Law. Using common sense, let's ignore those outlaws and use the correct name, a name never changed: George Enescu. Thank you!
I am really not phased by the correctness of the name, it is the quality of the music afterall that is the main subject and the London Philharmonic is still excellent. Don't be so picky!

Its very clear that are few pictures from Serbia because Danube river its a naturat border between Romania (a Latin alphabet country) and Serbia & Bulgaria (Cyrillic alphabet countries)... i wrote "all images" like a funny reply to all those who wrote that "not all images":)... the beautiful places are for those who know how to appreciate!!!
!!!!!!!
9:05 That is House of National Assembly of Serbia, and former Parliament of Yugoslavia. That is Belgrade (Serbia).
Thank you for the information. Unfortunately, that film clip was included in the Romania category at VideoBlocks. Too late to change anything.
Thanks for the tip, even though I am a Romanian born and raised here the US, I do know more Serbians than I do Romanians. But thank you anyway/hvala :-)
"Romanian", not "Roumanian", or even more egregiously, "Rumanian"
That's the correct ortography today, but when the piece was written, the English spelling of the time alternated between "u" and "ou" (depending on whether the writer wanted to align with French).
@@kisslas Usually, in any language, a person's name was and it is written as that person wants to. For example, Eugen Ionescu (the Theater of Absurd creator), during his fled to France, used as his name Eugene Ionesco. Enescu absolutely never express his intend to change his name.
So whomever changed his name spelling did an illegality in International Law.
Using common sense, let's ignore those outlaws and use the correct name, a name never changed: George Enescu. Thank you!
Rumynija is Russian
Ruminija is Serbian
România is correct.
In each case, a different vowel
High, unrounded, central, front, and back.
I am really not phased by the correctness of the name, it is the quality of the music afterall that is the main subject and the London Philharmonic is still excellent.
Don't be so picky!
Sergiu, Georges, not Sergio, not George.. Enescu, not Enesco
Not all scenes are of Romania, some of them are of Serbia.
Miomir Filipovic yes is true but more than 90 procents are from Romania
Ana, it is very simple: great music is great music.
Because Serbia is at the border, on the other side of the Danube river. That’s why.
Like!
you got here some shots from Serbia aswell
