  • Antonín Leopold Dvořák ( 8 September 1841 - 1 May 1904) was a Czech composer. After Bedřich Smetana, he was the second Czech composer to achieve worldwide recognition. Following Smetana's nationalist example, Dvořák frequently employed aspects, specifically rhythms, of the folk music of Moravia and his native Bohemia. Dvořák’s own style has been described as ‘the fullest recreation of a national idiom with that of the symphonic tradition, absorbing folk influences and finding effective ways of using them'.

    Dvořák was inspired to write the concerto after meeting Joseph Joachim in 1878, and composed the work with the intention of dedicating it to him. However, when he finished the concerto in 1879, Joachim became skeptical about it. Joachim was a strict classicist and objected, inter alia, to Dvořák's abrupt truncation of the first movement's orchestral tutti. Joachim also didn't like the fact that the recapitulation was cut short and that it led directly to the slow second movement. It is also assumed that he was upset with the persistent repetition found in the third movement. However, Joachim never said anything outright and instead claimed to be editing the solo part. He never actually performed the piece in public.
    It was premiered in Prague on October 14, 1883 by František Ondříček, who also gave the Vienna and London premieres.
    The concerto was first performed in the United States on October 30, 1891, at the Auditorium Theatre in Chicago. Max Bendix was soloist with the Chicago Orchestra led by Theodore Thomas.

    I always felt that melodies from this concerto in a different universe could be in Dvorak symphonies and vice versa and we would never notice.

    This concerto was my first concerto that I ever listened to, and it got me to listen to a second concerto. Since then, I’ve loved classical music and had a tremendous passion for it, and this piece will forever hold a special place in my heart.

    Once again, the absolute best playing is on display with Kyung-Wha Chung, bravo. Bartje would you care to share a few thoughts as to why you picked her performance?

    • @bartjebartmans
      @bartjebartmans  6 месяцев назад +11

      She plays with guts, dare and verve. One of my teachers once said: "A good performer or composer will make the listener perk up and sit up. All distractions are gone for the moment". That is exactly what her playing does to me, once I start listening the sense of time disappears and I find myself listening to the whole work. She turns this concerto into a powerful experience. I can imagine Dvorak would be very pleased!

      Вообще ,если музыка меняет твое состояние ,настроение и ты можешь не только сесть но и замереть и забыть дышать ,то это уже совершенно ,что то очень значимое .... Как красиво вы написали и отзывается во мне. Хотя я совсем не музыкант.... ​@@bartjebartmans

      what about that ugly intonation mistake at 2:39? its supposed to be g sharp but obviously its not :/
      thats definitely not "absolute best playing"

      ​@@dpetrov32 What a sad life you must live, if a single instance of being a quarter-tone flat in a live performance is enough to dismiss the whole endeavor as unworthy of your time. Do you also disown your children whenever they spill milk on the floor? :/

      @@macchupicchu3 Indeed! Pretty much any performer makes mistakes in live performances. To play 100% without mistakes happens but rarely. He might not know that a fear of making mistakes can affect a performance negatively, making it sound like "playing it safe". You can't say that about Kyung Wha-Chung, Ashkenazy, Pollini, Cziffra, Horowitz etc. etc. They go for it.

    Inconsciamente ho utilizzato alcuni motivi musicali di questo gran capolavoro nelle mie composizioni, la musica di questo concerto ti resta in testa, è un effetto collaterale assai positivo.

    Wunderschöne und spannende Interpretation dieses spätromantischen und ethnisch komponierten Konzerts mit seidigem doch gut phrasiertem Ton der technisch fehlerlosen Solovioline sowie gut vereinigten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen der anderen Instumente. Der zweite Satz klingt besonders schön und echt melodisch. Im Kontrast klingt der dritte Satz echt lebhaft und auch energisch. Der intelligente und geniale Dirigent leitet das ausgezeichnete Orchester im rhythmischen Tempo und mit möglichst effektiver Dynamik. Wunderbar und atemberaubend zugleich!

    One of his weaker works sadly. A bit by the numbers. No real hook or memorable Melodies. The piece just rambles on and seems to go nowhere. I was kinda disappointed when I heard it for the first time

      It's not his cello concerto, granted but I think it has plenty of catchy tunes.

      a lot of classical music requires multiple listens. it's unfortunately very rare to like a piece on first listen. it took me five listens before i began liking shostakovich cello concerto no 1. perhaps this piece gets better after relistens too.

      I don't think we are listening to the same music. I think this is one of the great romantic concertos by one of the composers who gives me the most joy (along with the performers).
