- Опубликовано: 8 май 2021
- Celebrating the 76th Anniversary of the Victory over Nazism in the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945, we'd like to share with you the music which is strongly associated with the heroic struggle of the Soviet people and especially of the city of Leningrad: Symphony № 7 by Dmitry Shostakovich.
On May 9, at 3:00 PM MSK (UTC+3) we will show it performed by the Mariinsky orchestra under Valery Gergiev (the video recording of the live stream from the Mariinsky-2 on January 27, 2020).
This year, the Mariinsky orchestra celebrates Victory Day on tour of the Easter Festival, giving the concerts today. May 8, in Bryansk, and tomorrow, May 9, in Moscow.
Musicologist Iosif Raiskin about Shostakovich's "Leningrad" Symphony:
In the history of music there has probably never been another symphony whose explosive rise to fame occurred so quickly, so thunderously, and at the same time so enduringly, a fame that lasts even today. Composed in the first months after the start of the Great Patriotic War (in Leningrad and subsequently in Kuibyshev to where Shostakovich was evacuated) Shostakovich’s symphony No 7 was first performed on 5 March 1942 in Kuibyshev by the Bolshoi Theatre Orchestra under conductor Samuil Samosud. 22 March saw a repeat performance in Moscow. Subsequently the symphony was being performed all over the globe. In Novosibirsk it was performed by the Leningrad Philharmonic under Yevgeny Mravinsky. The honour of the first US performance on 19 July 1942 fell to Arturo Toscanini. In the 1942-1943 season alone the symphony was played in North America sixty-two times! And in the first post-war season Shostakovich’s work was played in almost every major European city, among them Paris, Rome, Vienna, Sofia, Belgrade, Budapest, Oslo, Copenhagen, Bucharest, Krakow and Zagreb. The winter of 1946-1947 saw the first performance of the symphony in Berlin. However, the most famous, legendary performance of the Seventh Symphony was that in Leningrad during the Siege at the Great Philharmonic Hall on 9 August 1942 under Karl Eliasberg.
Shostakovich’s Seventh Symphony is majestic music about mankind’s resistance to violence and tyranny, to a machine of evil and destruction. The symphony opens to a powerful unison of strings - the main theme of the first movement. It is set off by a lyrical secondary theme. Together they conjure up an integrated, harmonious image of life at peace. The more terrifying, therefore the “theme of invasion” that creeps in. It enters to a drum roll - mechanical and primitive - the mindless march of soldiers, and a vulgar chansonette. But gradually the musical theme “augments in iron and in blood. It paralysed the auditorium. It paralysed the world” (Yevgeny Petrov). As it advances to heights of incredible tension throughout the entire orchestra, the heroic music of resistance enters. The grandiose symphonic battle ends with a funereal bassoon solo. The somewhat lighter coda darkens again with a dry drum roll… The second movement is an unusual scherzo: the outside lyrical sections frame the scherzo episode itself - sharply rhythmical and jagged. The composer explained that these pages are characterisations of “recollections covered by a fog of sadness and dreams”. “The third movement,” Shostakovich continued, “is a pathetique Adagio. The thrill of life, homage to nature - that is the meaning.” Straight away, like a far-off thundering against Hitler, in the tremolo of the kettledrums the finale begins.
The vortexes of the passages against the background of the embossed rhythm of brass and percussion give the impression of a battle, this time victorious. The slow, almost laboured approach to the conclusion begins - the approach to the courageous, radiant epilogue, to the triumphal introduction of the main theme from the first movement of the symphony.

Великолепная, музыка!!! Музыка Дмитрия Шостаковича , великого выдающего композитора 20 века, будет жить вечно!!!
Wonderful! Thank you Maestro Gergiev, and your superb Russian musicians. The wonderful music of Shostakovich lives on through you.
Today, more than ever on the eve of 77th anniversary of VE day, your voice must not be silenced. Shame on the MET and the other 'great' opera houses and concert halls who will not tolerate any patriot who will not deny his heritage and bow down to the the US hegemony.
I agree. Gergiev agreed with Putin, but I don't think the arts should be wrapped in this politics. Justice for Gergiev!
@@1stukrainianfrontбыть на стороне, сражающихся за выживание, добро-это стыд для музыканта?! Мир сошёл с ума! Равнодушие, вот смерть Мира
Great performance! Bravissimo! Congratulations! Best wishes from Bucharest, Romania!
GREAT SYMPHONY BY THE GREATEST CLASSICAL COMPOSER OF THE 20TH CENTURY.. LONG LIVE MOTHER RUSSIA. PEACE, PROSPERITY AND GREATNESS IS YOUR DESTINY!!!
The last few minutes of the finale present one of the great head fakes in symphonic literature. After numerous modulations, the key of B Major is established at 1:14:12 with some brass fanfares and then a progression to an E Major chord at 1:13:39 that appears to act as a subdominant. However, the head fake occurs starting 1:14:52 with what sounds like a dominant G13 (b9, b5) [spaced from the bottom up as G, F, Db, E, Ab, B] which cadences to a C Major 7th chord at 1:14:56, finally reaching the key of the symphony that the composer had titled it as, Symphony No 7 in C Major. Perhaps Dmitri Shostakovich identified the key of C Major with his home city.
オーケストラの気合いの入り方がすごいです。弦はフルボウイング、管も力いっぱい、打楽器は皮も破れよといわんばかり。もちろん、単に音がでかいのではなく、そろうべきところはきっちり揃えて、ぐさぐさと刺してきます。
ここには、「ショスタコーヴィチの証言」が入り込む余地がありません。この21世紀に、戦いの苦しみと勝利を、これほど真正面から表現する演奏ができるのは、やはりこの街の歴史を背負ったオーケストラが、その街で演奏するときならではなのかもしれません。
SO AWESOME!!!!
HAPPY VICTOR DAY🌹🌹🌹

Bravissimo!! 🎶👏💐
Most powerful and intense performance I have ever heard of the 7th. BRAVO!
This great war symphony has recently inspired a photo/poem book entitled
Camera Symphonica: Scores of Love, Uprisings and Pandemic by Jaime Diaz
Martinez. One reads in the introduction "the city of Paris would become
Shostakovich's Leningrad, and the invader would take shape as plague
and injustice. All these events would compose the sounds, cries and
emotions that would lay forth the composition of this work".
Shostakovitch is truly an inspiration for all sorts of artistic creations.
Господи вы только представьте как тогда в блокадном ленинграде голодные холодные это сделали
Грандиозно, и проникновенно, и необыкновенно красиво одновременно. Предельная музыка. Кто-то ранее написал: совершенство.
Admiração por esse povo fantástico. Viva a Russia !!!! ♥️
Great Symphonie ! Love D.Szostakowicz...Merci ! 💙🎼💙🙏🍀
Вот это МУЗЫКА! Грандиозно!
How amazing this performance of No7 is. Such talents and so moving to watch and listen to of course. One of my favorites. Watched similar concert on SKY Arts a few years ago and so glad I found this channel on RUclips and more recent performance. Loved it!!❤❤
Спасибо. Saludos desde Chile.
Могу слушать бесконечно. Гениально. С днём Победы из Приморья ❤!!!
マリンスキーのDVDのショスタコーヴィチ全集を購入しましたが、７番のオーケストラの配置はストコフスキー配置でした。
この動画の配置が私の理想ですので、感激しました😊
素晴らしい動画どうもありがとうございます！
レニングラード包囲の中でも演奏されたというこの曲、今この世界情勢の中でロシアを思いつつ聴くと、ショスタコーヴィッチの表現がまた深く染み入ります。
Les symphonies de Shostakovitch incarnent merveilleusement les drames de la Russie

So ist es🎼🎼🎼🎻🎻🎻❤️
Gloria a la eterna Rusia. Saludos de Perú
1.14.45 horns come in early-what a stinker of a look from the maestro 🫣
1:14:46 Aqui quase todos os trompistas atrasam a entrada para o Finale uns QUATRO segundos. É nítida a bronca do Gergiev ksndksnd como puderam errar...?
Tirando isso, perfeita execução.
Xdxd
А представьте себе полуголодные артисты оркестра как играли
Toujours avec son cure dents qu'il délaisse pour une minuscule baguette, et parfois dirigeant à mains nues, mais là il est "à domicile", au Marinskii, avec un orchestre aux sonorités envoutantes.
Напишите кто-нибудь тайм коды симфонии🙏🙏
Wow !!! The Russians sure know how to play Russian music ! BRAVO
What a wonderful concert. Love the music of Shostakovich and Gergiev really knows how to bring the music alive. To me Shostakovich was one of the last great composers. What composers are trying to do today is just awful. Modernize classical music or whatever they want to call it is just dull, drab and very boring. Thanks for posting this.
Wonderful music, that can be interpreted in more than one way. This is what Stalin feared the most: art that shows how individual persons share the burden of interpretation. Truth is not something you receive, but something you seek and fight for. We know what you went through, Dmitri, and it’s absolutely clear that, in spite of everything, you won and little brother lost.
Stalin was a great leader of the Soviet Union and of the world's working class. Eternal glory to J V Stalin !

Добрый день.
Гергиев вообще не париться на счет палочки дирижера, как будто сейчас у него шпажка от закуски:::
Как то так.
Есть видео, где он держит зубочистку?

素晴らしいわ。
ちょうど今の私の境遇にぴったりかも。
不公平不平等の象徴のようなオリンピックパラリンピックゼニゲバ大会をはじめ、公金を湯水の如く偏った層に注ぎ込み、自然の摂理に逆らってでも延命に固執する輩も少なくない国において、私は住む場所さえ確保できず、あげくの果てに強制入院で、両手首両足首に両肩と胴体をベッドに縛り付けられ尿道カテーテル装着。
シャワーさえ浴びられず顔も拭けない状態で10日以上。
スウィフトのガリバー旅行記みたいだと思った。
どこの野蛮人の国に迷いこんだかと思った。
拘束を解かれても不自由そのもの。
フドキでもコジキでもない日本医療モドキの現実。
天皇制に反対し、思想犯フトドキモノで捕まってからヒドイ扱い。
数日前に通信環境悪い中、放送大学の西洋音楽史の講義でちょうど学んだ。
「古代ギリシャ人は、月や星などの天体が運行に伴って耳に聞こえない妙なる音楽を奏でているという美しい表象を共有していた。」（シラバス引用）という。
この曲も、壮大な世界観と精神性を表現していると感じた。
生死や自由、人間性について。
日本じゃ生まれない音楽かなと感じた。
日本が日本国民の戦意を鼓舞するために使った絵画の展示を見たことがあるが、アメリカの映画や欧州やソ連のプロパガンダに利用されたと評されるような音楽とは次元が違うと感じざるを得なかった。
私は、生まれる場所を間違えたとしか思えない。
私は生に固執しないだけで、暴力もふるわないし自傷行為に着手したこともないのに、酷く行動を制限される。
節制するし運動もするから、医療モドキが大嫌いなのに、どんどん健康になる。
この先も私は転落人生まっしぐらで間違いないと思うけど。
日本多数派から毛嫌いされそうな外国人さんも注意した方がいいと思われ。
日本医療モドキ今日も最悪。
生きる気力をなくし、完全に自律性を喪失するまで、多額の医療債務を負わせてまで恩に着せるつもりらしい。
自殺合法化してくれたら、喜んでこの国とはおさらばするのに。
精神科病床数と自殺者数の多さが世界的に突出していることを誇りにしてそう。
映画「カッコーの巣の上で」の看護師に強い共感を表明する人も少なくないみたいだし。
海外の文明や発明の良いとこ取りでフリーライドしまくりだから、ラクチンルーティン強制で公金じゃぶじゃぶウハウハなんだよな。
ほんと、ほんの一部の障害者だけで都合の悪い層は徹底排除のホロコーストパラリンピックなんて図々しくよくやれる気になるな。
象徴の存在が身分制絶対強要で人間の不平等の証左の国だから、法の支配も絵に描いた餅のインチキ。
Что с вами? У вас что то произошло и вы страдаете? Как сейчас вы себя чувствуете?
Шостакович-величайший композитор xx века, спасибо ему что он был...
А еще медленнннннее 4 часть начать слабо?😅😅😅😅
Раздули из гергиева великого дирижера,темпы в симфониях Шостаковича не чувствует ни струя
