    One of my favorite neo-romantic pieces. Schreker, like Korngold, was magisterial with the orchestra. Such beautiful colors!

    The sense of the orchestra is fabulous. The way how cellos and altos emerge from the winds and the future evolution of this muxic is fantastic. It leads to an impressive tutti, then things become calmer again, with a quite different sonority .... and so on .... The orchestra has become a superb instrument at the end of the XIXth Century.

      On peut sans doute affirmer que c'est la page la plus réussie de Franz Schreker. Pour ce qui est de la seule ouverture à son célébrissime opéra : die Gezichneten (partie de ce que l'on entend ici), il s'agit de ce qu'il y a de plus abouti dans le genre, évoquant les passages de l'œuvre dans une captatio bene volentae des plus saisissantes.
      C'est grâce à elle que j'ai pu découvrir ce compositeur totalement ignoré en France. Un concert de Radio-France en 1980, orchestre philharmonique dirigé par Uri Segal.
      Une programmation sans doute inspirée par la reprise de l'œuvre à Francfort l'année précédente et qui est à l'origine d'une formidable renaissance.

      Bien des années plus tard, Michael Gielen viendra diriger plusieurs œuvres de Schreker, dont l'ouverture des Gezeichneten et le finale du premier acte avec le même orchestre philharmonique de Radio-France.

      @@gerardbegni2806 Vous avez parfaitement raison de défendre la symphonie de chambre. On pourrait aussi rappeler d'autres œuvres pour orchestre et encore une suite pour soliste dont l'une me touche particulièrement : "Sie sind so schoen..." et même la symphonie en trois mouvements redécouverte il y a quelques années. Il est vrai que j'ai eu tendance à me polariser sur les Gezeichneten qui ne cesse de me fasciner, même au détriment des autres œuvres lyriques de Franz Schreker que j'ai presque toutes vues sur scène, et même dans différentes productions : der ferne Klang, Irrelohe, der singede Teufel

      One could also say the Nazis gave them everything because they drove all the good european composers into american exile. Schreker would not have died in '34, his works forced into oblivion, and Korngold would not have become the influential film composer he became.
      It boggles the mind imagining how different the cultural landscape would have turned out in the austro-german realm.

    The overture to die gezeichneten is 10 minutes. What did he add to the piece for this version?

    • @macprofire
      @macprofire Год назад

      Essentially he repeats the whole thing. But the second time he alters the orchestration a bit making everything a bit darker. Where the whole opera portrays things going to pieces, in this prelude we have a setup and the sequential destruction of the introduced elements until everything ends (or not ends) where it has started - with nothing. At least that‘s how I read it.

      I just saw this opera in Cologne last Sunday. Marvellous production. Seen it already 4 years ago. I really think Schreker's time has finally come again. Only problem is the demands to the musical forces his operas make. You need very good singers and pretty large pits to fit his orchestras into.
      Well Tom you finally earned yourself a sub. Keep it up!

    In this impressive work by Schreker, one can discern the profound impact of Wagner on the composer's creative process. While Schreker's music differs from Wagner's in certain respects, there are also notable similarities.
