i make modern music, but i try to melt the classical feeling into the modern , then this piece of art is a real inspiration! its a shame so much people are oblivious to this. bless the internet, cuz i would never have discovered this without
@@calhouriThe painting is called "Over eternal rest".This reproduction is completely different from the original. The color scheme of the picture is really muted. The overall color of the picture is cold. The only bright spot is the yellow light in the Church window.
It is an amazing piece. I always felt that the brass theme from last movement sounds like a western theme. But of course, Borodins russian melodies are what maked him great, he knew hos to set the mood
This is what I was thinking. I heard a great deal of Copland in the 4th movement with a similar theme to Mussorgsky's Promenade from Pictures. It's funny, because Borodin predates both of these guys, so it would be fairer to say that Copland and Mussorgsky sound like Borodin. Glad I discovered this piece today, really wonderful.
Many of the great film composers were of Russian or Eastern European extraction, many were educated there, and many western composers were influenced by the Russian composers. That said, this entire symphony is full of strong and irregular rhythms, alternation of time signatures, even in the most lyrical passages, and aside from the scherzo of this one, I know of no other piece with the 1/1 time signature. Liszt admired this work, praising it as entirely new and unlike anything that had ever been written before.
I can't remember if it was Respighi's Fountains or Pines of Rome, but one of the two has a crazy time signature like 4/1 in it as well. When playing it, all I could wonder is "why isn't this just in 4/4?"
Actually, Mussorgsky and Borodin were contemporaries (along with Rimsky-Korsakov and Cesar Cui), and along with Mili Balakirev, were called "The Mighty Handful" or "The Five." Their contemporary, Tchaikovsky considered Borodin's primary career as a scientist to be a waste of his time and talent when he could have been writing more music. Borodin, on the other hand, said, "Respectable people don't write music or make love for a living."This from the son of the mistress of a Georgian Price.
I respect Tchaikovsky's comment, and also admire the talent of Borodin. So few are blessed with two magnificent talents...... we in science can appreciate the music, and envy the one who can escape to share his second passion with us. I wish I could express my emotion in composition as Borodin did.
A glorious symphony, thoroughly Russian. A good case for suggesting the final movement gave rise to Dmitri Tiomkin and Elmer Bernstein's scores for Hollywood Westerns.
I played this whole symphony in youth orchestra. 1st bassoon and only bassoon. This piece was so tough for me because I was only a junior and didn't play any orchestral piece this difficult. But it made everything else so much easier for me. I wish I could play this again because now I'm a bassoon performance major in college.
Ansermet is GREAT! Tempo on the Finale is PERFECT! Most play this movement too fast. and lose the fabulous interplay and weaving of foreground and background elements.
I'd give Symphony No. 2 Scherzo a 1/1 ;) I came from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_musical_works_in_unusual_time_signatures I'm not very familiar with this composer's work. Sounds good though!
Forse la paura accende orgogli di di suoni cupi e ardimentosi?O forse l'instancabile speranza di approdi a isole di pace?Un palpitare di assilli domina la stesura di furori di corni?Erompe qua e là la forza di ribellione allo strapotere del fato?
Might be a bit late saying this, but this symphony is vastly underrated.
0:00 - 7:24 Mvt I. Allegro
7:25 - 13:02 Mvt II. Scherzo: Prestissimo - Trio: Allegretto
13:03 - 19:42 Mvt III. Andante
19:43 - 26:07 Mvt IV. Finale: Allegro
You win
Merci !
Thank you.
I'm soaking this up like a sponge! Feels so good.
Such stirring music--genius!! How many more great symphonies could he have written had he lived to old age!
A fine performance of an outstanding symphony by a composer whose works have a unique quality and mood.
i make modern music, but i try to melt the classical feeling into the modern , then this piece of art is a real inspiration! its a shame so much people are oblivious to this. bless the internet, cuz i would never have discovered this without
That fusing of the two makes for some wonderful music .
Love that wonderful, coloristic Russian orchestration and the uplifting, festive quality of the Symphony !!
Thank you for share this peace of art
For anyone wondering, the painting in the video is done by Isaac Levitan.
It has nice lighting, especially on the house and trees.
THANKS FOR NICE PAINTING 'ISSAC'...!!!!! jzpatelut..
Odd that this painting, reproduced in his wiki entry, is much more muted in color. I wonder which of the 2 repros is the more accurate?

OTRO DE LOS GRANDES RUSOS, QUE ME FASCINAN POR SUS ESPLÉNDIDAS OBRAS. ¡ ETERNOS !!!
Excelente obra , simplemente maravillosa..¡¡
A glorious symphony, thoroughly Russian. A good case for suggesting the final movement gave rise to Dmitri Tiomkin and Elmer Bernstein's scores for Hollywood Westerns.
Ah yes!!! Just another example of that SUBVERSIVE Russian meddling! They're trying to get us to love great music!!!!!! ;-)
And they got the TEMPO right, throughout ! Not every orchestra seems able to do so. Especially in that superb melody which kicks in at about 20.50.
Music of musical Kismet was all based on Borodin, of course.
Мощно🙏🏻🧡
Played this at the PA District 12 Orchestra festival...simply a blast as principal oboe.
this brings me so much joy as a horn
That much??
THANKS FOR VIDEO...!!!! jzpatelut INDIA...
Amazing piece considering he was a Sunday composer. My favorite of the handful of five is Mussorgsky, but Borodin is a very close second.
I played this whole symphony in youth orchestra. 1st bassoon and only bassoon. This piece was so tough for me because I was only a junior and didn't play any orchestral piece this difficult. But it made everything else so much easier for me. I wish I could play this again because now I'm a bassoon performance major in college.
Yo I am playing this in youth symphony, that is why I am here lol

Hahaha...listening to this while studying chemistry. Well, he's also a chemist himself, apart from being a composer.

You speak the truth my friend....

The biggest russian Symphony!
I'd give Symphony No. 2 Scherzo a 1/1 ;)
I came from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_musical_works_in_unusual_time_signatures
I'm not very familiar with this composer's work. Sounds good though!
0:03 is a good place to start.
No depth. But who needs to always have depth. A fun listen.
Wait what... What time signature is this? Never heard anything quite like it. This is refreshing af
Dee Bell the first movement switches between 2/2 and 3/2
