I suspect one of the reasons this collosal masterpiece is not performed often is finding pianists who can navigate their way through an insanely difficult piano part. Also need to find an ondes-Martenot player. As you say, it is filled with joy - the 5th and 10th movements are particularly "dance like" and joyous.
Thanks for this! Turangalîla is my favorite symphony and love to hear more about it ❤️

I love Turangalila.
Beautiful playing.
Is this a shorter clip from something more long-form? I would love to see a full analysis
Lovely Jonathan:)
