    Response to a question posed earlier : "what instrument is he playing on ?". Tongue in cheek answer : a cello ?
    More seriously, here is what I found : "In 1973, Maisky won 'the Gaspar Cassadó International Cello Competition' in Florence and made his Carnegie Hall debut with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra conducted by William Steinberg. After the concert, an anonymous fan gave Maisky an instrument made by the eighteenth century Venetian master Domenico Montagnana. Maisky has played that cello ever since."

      +Bertrand Jacques He says the cello is a gift but, in recent interviews, he says that he bought the cello at a very "low" price, that is why he consider it as a gift, he also says that he got a loan in order to buy the cello, so after all it was not that cheap.

      @PaulJones-oj4kr 5 лет назад +2

      No. The movement is allegretto, NOT allegro assai. Rostropovich's first recording gets the tempo right. Fournier played it later in his career, which was around Rostropovich's tempo, as well. Allegro assai is just too frantic, glib. Plus, we could do without Maisky's dramatics.

    • @tomkor2615

      @peenut169 6 лет назад +3

      I have to agree with you. However, the performance itself is still quite amazing. Maïsky and the rest of the orchestra make up for the conductor's disappointing show.

    • @sphere82
      @sphere82 4 года назад +2

      The conductor is actually pretty good and doing exactly what is needed. A bit theatrical, yes, but, it is generally known it is extremely difficult to accompany Maisky. Maisky is, like always, playing not as much Shostakovich, as most of all himself. Very good, yes, but, Rostropovich's or Heinrich Schiff's playing is another level.

    • @sphere82
      @sphere82 3 года назад

      @Nancy Lee My personal view is that a comparison here is not impossible, as e. g. those two guys' playing is truer to the music of Shostakovich itself than this, and therefore superior. However, it is music, a highly subjective thing, so I'm not saying I'm right and you're wrong.

  • @Rob-wg9nz
    @Rob-wg9nz 7 лет назад +14

    I've seen various comments about how metal is just remotely related to classical music or remotely as complex so i just wanted to share my story. I started off studying classical piano in a conservatory and i always was really courious about the harmonical analysis of the pieces i learned. So i can safely state that some classical compositions have a rather simple harmonic structure whereas some metal songs features a complexity that can even exceed that of a "standard" classical piece.
    That is due to the fact that modern metal composers have all the rhytmic and harmonical achievements made by jazz and avantgarde at their disposal. Of course not all metal reaches the peaks of the most known classical pieces. But think about the fact that you could narrow down the number of classical composers you listen to regularly to less than 30, and that they lived across 4 centuries. I can assure you that studying classic music everyday makes you come across a considerable amount of mediocre compositions (and also discover beautiful but almost forgotten music).Metal has only had roughly forty years to develop yet the progressive,neoclassical,tecnical death subgenres as well as some of the most well known bands have stood out to prove quite a grade of musical maturity.
    but thats just my opinion

    • @peenut169
      @peenut169 6 лет назад +4

      The thing is, if you are a good composer of classical music, then you are pretty much a god. It may be hard to achieve, but the precious few that produce this ever-lasting music will always, _always_ beat out any other form of "music." Of course, there are plenty of classical composers that create severely disappointing music.

    Orchestra deserves a medal for keeping up with him! He gabbles the passage-work so that you can't hear the notes, and put in rits where there aren't any. I don't know why you'd play it like this, except to show you can. Shostakovich would have had a stroke if he'd heard this!

      @ReynardVoss 9 лет назад +17

      ***** There are very minor links between heavy metal and classical that causes people to preemptively hold them in the same light. I assume that NWOBHM is largely responsible due to it having mild neoclassical elements but the comparison largely ends there. While formally musically educated people such as Luc Lemay of Gorguts, Ilya Goddessraper of Imperial Triumphant and Ryan McGuire of Ehnahre create metal music, they understand the distinctions that must be made between the writing of their respective brands of metal and that of modern orchestral music in terms of layering, structure, polyphonic complexity and timbre. Metal is not the only dark form of music, yet when classical becomes dark the "it's like heavy metal' stamp gets thrown around.

    • @OrlandoAponte
      @OrlandoAponte 7 лет назад +10

      As someone who is seriously passionate about both genres of music (and proficient on both, viola and electric guitar), I can assure you that this piece has nothing in common with heavy metal except that it requires a high level of technical excellence to play. Beyond that, it's not metal in the slightest, nor is metal like classical music.

    • @nickdavis965
      @nickdavis965 5 лет назад +4

      wow.. this is something ive always thought. but always thought I was wrong and Id get shit on. Im only 15, so my musical journey has still only just begun. I started listening to classical (on my own, my parents loved Bach so id listen to that a lot) after starting the cello and fell in love with it before I fell into the realm of metal. I feel like many metalheads (ill admit sometimes I get a high horse perspective on it aswell) think they are experts because "Metal is classical music and has so many similarities" when in fact, in most cases, does not. Yes many and I mean MANY metal songs can have structural similarities to classical *cough cough Cliff Burton cough*. Metal and classical: similar and both take musical integrity, BUT are not the same thing.
      also the only composers thrown around in metal circles is Bach and Beethoven, its like all others weren't "metal" enough

    Maisky plays this concerto best. Better than Slava even. I've watched everyone play this, Yo Yo, Henrich Scheiff, every single video on youtube. This one is the most well put together versions of this concerto ever. Mischa plays this with the most passion this is better than Dimitry could have imagined it getting.

    Yes, 1st class cello playing and horn. Conductor also good. What is wrong with that women sitting behind him not playing?
