I feel shame of not having known the work of this artist before, that work has a brutal force ... I am running (virtually) to look for more of his works on the Internet, although with that work he has already entered my list of favorite painters ...Thanks Theo.
To me, Dvořák is the greatest composer who has ever lived. With all due respect to all the other great authors and musical geniuses, I like Dvořák most of all, as he manages to put emotion in his music in a very touching way. Each time I listen to Dvořák, I'm not just amazed by his incredible ability of composition, but I also feel the emotion in the music very strongly. More strongly than with any other author.
Amazing quote. And very true today with the perpetuation of life in social media and fake lives in video games. Man doesn't seem to be bothered by anything anymore.
I would modify to 2020's situation in post-modern society "The tragedy of modern man is not that he knows less and less about the meaning of his own life, but that he doesn't care at all anymore"
Anyone on RUclips could claim that. Hell, we even have Game of Thrones characters here, making funny comments. Most of the time I don't believe the attention seeking people who claim they are related to whatever famous person.
+Gxoxoxox Pxoxoxox I love that painting. Such a search into the impact of death and how each of the onlookers wears a different emotion. My favourite touch is how the little girl's face is not shown, probably because she has no idea how to react to death.
RIP Big George. I never could beat you at chess. When we played, this song would echo in my head as you thrashed me despite decades of learning. You never let me win, and I appreciate that. I never did get to play you last year to show you my FrankDrac variation, you cheeky git. Miss you, mate. I hope they've got you a comfy spot wherever you are, and you'd better be ready for me!
What a beautiful discovery today. I have never heard the Dvorak Requiem in my life. I would love for the Nairobi Music Society to perform it one day to bring it to music lovers in Kenya
Sometimes we hear things and are not ready to hear them. I know I have heard this before but today I really heard it for the first time. I was so moved I didn't want it to end. Thanks to all who made it possible for me to have my soul opened up today.
A mi me sirven en tiempos de frío e incertidumbre. No me hacen sentir triste, pero sí me hacen vivir esos tiempos con tranquilidad. Los encuentro bellos, como una tormenta.
Almost two hours of beautiful, beautiful music and liturgy. What such depth of soul and pathos. Excellent world renown individual soloist, SATB. Bravo Fortissimo.
Prague, December 2011 around Christmas, main square at Hradcany Castle.....the funeral ceremony for Vaclav Havel, this deeply touching Czech requiem sounded over the squeare....... thousands and thousands present in deep silence, in mourning, crying and outside the castle so many more thousands....just fifty meters away from the Vitus Cathedral where it all happened.....all so in "balance": this music, the ideas Havel stood for, the friendly, warm Czech mentality, the love you could feel around you....Maybe most emotional event in my life. All praise to Maris Jansons, who "understands" the universal love in this masterwork of Dvorak so well.
I did not know about this playing of the Requiem when he died. It must have been overwhelmingly moving for the people, something to remember for ever. I have always loved this work, having sung in the chorus of a performance of it as a young college student -- and I deeply admired Havel and especially his writings. I was very saddened when he died.
Although the circumstances and situations are so contrary I'm reminded of the story of Beethoven's passing, the reverent crowds and what is must have been like. Thanks Has.
No other piece gives me such goosebumps! One of the most beautiful pieces I have had the pleasure of listening to in this life of mine yet so criminally underrated. Magnificent.
I'm surprised King made, what is to me, this very cynical comment. After all, he was committed to Christian ideals, and here he is denying his belief in his friends. Such glibness doesn't fit with his nature, and hopes, as I understand them.
@@victorireland8913 I don't understand why MLKj was even quoted in the first place. Furthermore, if you look into an unadulterated history of King's life, you'd see he actually had loose ties with the church, was a crass man behind closed doors, cheated on his wife, and was proponent of communism. The latter is, in its simplest form, is atheist. Soo with all things considered, I would say his cynical comment rings true.
What a great discovery. It's hard finding music that makes me feel happy and at peace. This is the type of music I will only listen to when I want to relax.
As a vocal music major and conductor who was privileged to perform with the NYC Philharmonic, San Antonio Symphony and Fort Worth Symphony and under the direction of Bernstein, Carlo Maria Giulini, Stokowski, Robert Shaw and to never been exposed to this exquisite piece. Now at 81, I never will have the joy of performing this piece. Thank God I got to hear this recording. Thank you, Dvorak.
There is so much worthwhile music some lost forever that one lifetime is insufficient to appreciate all of it, just hope the afterlife makes up for it.
Lovely. I know Dvorak`s great grand son. He`s name is Wilmous, he is a musician from Hungary. Very nice charming and talented guy. (He was married to my aunt, now divorced, sadly.)
I have watched and listened to Verdi's( performed in as a Uni student studying music) , Brahm's, Mozart's and Faure's requiems being performed but not Dvorak's. I am thoroughly impressed and amazed that this is seemingly little performed by choirs and accompanying orchestras. The diversity of intensity combined with melodic emotion is awe inspiring.
+Holm Natalie It is rather strange. I sing in a choir and so far we have performed Mozart's and Verdi's requiem and this autumn we will be singing Faure's. I'm going to have to ask if there are any plans of doing this one, because I really like it.
He was simply mixing the two emotion words together to create one that implies both. It's a common joke. For example: sad and mad makes "smad," which sounds funny and thus creates humor. It was a purposeful misspelling-- so it would be wrong to correct it. He isn't asking about the word used nor is he trying to correct them in any way-- he's making a joke by combining the two words.
I figured--sorry if my first reply was rude, I entirely forgot there are people who may not speak english as a first language or who may not live in a play where this particular joke is common. I hope you have a nice day :)
One of those composers that just never ceases to astound with their majesty of sound creation. Music that will last for as long as humanity has ears to hear, hearts to feel.
March 27 2021 I'm so happy to be alive to enjoy such master piece. I don't have words to describe this wonderful feeling..regards to all of you, from NYC. THANK YOU
This has always been one of my Favorite works and as I listened to this performance, sitting at the computer five feet from an open patio door, a thunderstorm rolled through. It was as if nature joined the performance, adding accent and dimension. It was wonderful! Thank you!
Cannot believe I had never heard this Requiem. Sung many, many of them. There are several moments that are reminiscent of the Verdi Requiem - some chords in particular. As usual, Dvorak's music is transcendent.
1:35:32 - 1:36:18 the most beautiful minute in the whole Requiem. The harmony, progression, sound everything sound so heavenly. Makes me cry every time...
umut barat Agreed, it fascinates me, disturbing just the way she's lying, like the life was removed in an instant, shot, dropped dead. But the figure, like a sister - ha! My best effort at art description! Do you know it?
That's a work of a czech realistic painter, Jakub Schikaneder, called "The Murder in the House". In the full painting, there are also people standing reacting to the dead girl.

Not as recognized as he definitely should, in my humble opinion. His Music is of Superior Quality and Beauty. Every time I listen to his work, I marvel. Perhaps greater than Mozart, a matter of opinion for sure. Thank you for posting.
I think Dvorak is not recognised as he should be. There are not many composers who excel at EVERYTHING. Symphonies, Concertos, Chamber Music, Operas, Sacred Music, Instrumental Music. Everything he did was touched by genius. Yet he always kept a genuine humility with regard to his own achievements. When he met with Sibelius (if only one could have eavesdropped on the conversation!) he told the younger man that he considered that he himself had written too much music. I would venture to disagree!
To wildnorthsea (below): "A little knowledge is a dangerous thing." Dvorak and his family came New York in 1892 at the invitation of Jeanette Thurber as The Director of The National Conservatory of Music. He spent 2 summers in Spillvale, Iowa, where there was a Czech community. There he wrote The "American" Quartet and his String Quintet. Back in New York he composed The New World Symphony and his Cello Concerto and several articles, one entitled "On the value of Negro Music." He himself said, "I came to America to discover what young Americans had in their music and to help them express it."
I'm only half way through listening to this - its the first time I've heard this requiem and I'm thoroughly enjoying it. I must confess to really enjoying the dramatic requiems such as Berlioz and Verdi - this one is really getting my attention.
Thanks for the upload. Strangely, though I've been familiar with Dvorak's music for most of my life I've never bothered to investigate the Requiem. The more I listen the more I appreciate the greatness of this work, I guess it doesn't get performed that much compared to Verdi's because it lacks the "spectacular" more operatic parts but for me the Dvorak is without question, the finer composition. Great orchestral playing and chorus the performance is only spoilt by less than ideal soloists (Kertesz's soloists are far superior) however this does not detract from my overall enjoyment of this recording.
I'm essentially an atheist but I am addicted to this angelic sounding music. There is something transcendentally beautiful about it as art. This composer was a genius. Perfect mix of singing and strings. Never too soft or abrasive. ASMR for the soul.
***** Eh... depends on which ones. Most (or at least, well over half) members of both groups (Vegetarians/Vegans and Atheists) don't care enough to really tell people about it most of the time. However, both groups also have those assholes who are CONSTANTLY talking about it and being hella annoying, acting like they're superior for it. However, for both groups, those assholes are in the minority.
Pathos personified. With the painting, it reminds me of the reckless endings of many, many operas. Most excellent. I have never heard this before. This is as good as anything ever made.
It does it gives you the feeling or notion that even the most innocent and harmless of beings can face death, struggle or pain nothing is sacred in a world governed by hatred and wrath
This is by far one of my favorite pieces of music I've ever heard. I've heard the very beginning somewhere before not too long ago, I have a hard time recalling exactly what or where, either way, this is astounding, had no idea it was Dvorak until now, even though he already was my favorite composer.
This is an amazing job from Dvorak! In the end of the prayer you really can't know if the absolution will be given or if the condamnation is coming. So dense!
Beautiful performance. I've had the opportunity to sing this music (chorus). In the requiem world, it's as good as it gets. Dvorak seems under-appreciated to me, relegated to some second tier. Aside from his great music, he has the added distinction of demonstrating to Americans that they had a music of their own. We Americans should particularly value him. Hurray for Dvorak!
wildnorthsea He may have been Czech, but he was one of the first prominent composers to recognize America's original music and to actually champion it. He encouraged the American elites to embrace their own country's music.
Dvorak's music is simply wonderful. He deserves much more recognition than he gets. Personally, I haven't come across any of his works that I did not like, and I have listened to much of his works.
People long ago had such wonderful music It's a shame people have grown to love rap and hip hop instead of doing something as beautiful as this. It's good to know people still listen to this though. ^.^
Not understanding but a handful of the words, between libretto and the instrumentation, the work captures depth from the human experience. 2020 just ended, full of chaos, angst, and anger. 2021 just began, full or chaos, angst, and anger. The music here does not shy away from the realities.
Many people today play modern music at weddings and funerals. Good for them. I want this played at my funeral. People who disagree are not invited. Actually I won't give a fuck cause I'll be dead by then anyway
People, what do you talking about. This is deeply emotional work, one of the best sacred music ever composed in Europe and whole World. Picture show a tragic death of young girl, may be refer to Dvorak child lost. Please be more respect.
***** You can not compare Dvorak work to Brahms and Faure. Dvorak along with Mozart, make Requiem Mass with strong Catholic narration and more religious as personal message. Brahms and Faure requiem, it is a healing and more personal work (after death of parents). Dvorak was a Brahms pupil. And Brahms was a Robert Schumann pupil. But Dvorak music has more Schumann taste and it is not surprising for me. Together they were devotion to Jesus in Catholic Church.

He truly is amazing, one of my favourite, amongst Rachmaninoff, Chopin, Guissepe Verdi and most definitely Shostakovitch!
One of the greatest!
Oh wow! I cannot believe this is my first time hearing this! Mozart's in D Minor was always my favourite - Dvořák has blown the top off the roof!!!!
The tragedy of modern man is not that he knows less and less about the meaning of his own life, but that it bothers him less and less. - Vaclav Havel

Yo me sigo quedando con el Requiem de Mozart.

I am thoroughly impressed and amazed that this is seemingly little performed by choirs and accompanying orchestras. The diversity of intensity combined with melodic emotion is awe inspiring.

Dvorak truly an inspired composer and emotionally fulfilling to sing.
One of those composers that just never ceases to astound with their majesty of sound creation. Music that will last for as long as humanity has ears to hear, hearts to feel.
A powerful piece of music like all of Dvorak's music. One of my favorite requiem.

Back in New York he composed The New World Symphony and his Cello Concerto and several articles, one entitled "On the value of Negro Music." He himself said, "I came to America to discover what young Americans had in their music and to help them express it."

I'm only half way through listening to this - its the first time I've heard this requiem and I'm thoroughly enjoying it. I must confess to really enjoying the dramatic requiems such as Berlioz and Verdi - this one is really getting my attention.
Absolutely sublime! Thanks for posting
I can't say how much I adore the Dies Irae part. I used to play on trumpet, so the fanfare, the trumpets... amazing, perfect coexistence and harmony!
Thanks for the upload. Strangely, though I've been familiar with Dvorak's music for most of my life I've never bothered to investigate the Requiem. The more I listen the more I appreciate the greatness of this work, I guess it doesn't get performed that much compared to Verdi's because it lacks the "spectacular" more operatic parts but for me the Dvorak is without question, the finer composition. Great orchestral playing and chorus the performance is only spoilt by less than ideal soloists (Kertesz's soloists are far superior) however this does not detract from my overall enjoyment of this recording.
cameronpaul Then you should try Fauré's Requiem as well, it is incredible

Yes I am familiar with the Faure Requiem.
I liked the soloists very much. Ms. Garancia is one of the top Messo sopranos of today.
Grande capolavoro, grazie per pubblicare queste opere classiche, mi avvicinano a questo "mondo" a me sconosciuto.
I'm essentially an atheist but I am addicted to this angelic sounding music. There is something transcendentally beautiful about it as art. This composer was a genius. Perfect mix of singing and strings. Never too soft or abrasive. ASMR for the soul.
Eh, only the ones who are, to at least some small extent, assholes (at least about their atheism).
OMG so guuud
***** Eh... depends on which ones. Most (or at least, well over half) members of both groups (Vegetarians/Vegans and Atheists) don't care enough to really tell people about it most of the time. However, both groups also have those assholes who are CONSTANTLY talking about it and being hella annoying, acting like they're superior for it. However, for both groups, those assholes are in the minority.
***** Which differs from most religions...how?
.
The applause at the end is also chilling!
Wonderful. Thanks for posting it. I loved.
Pathos personified. With the painting, it reminds me of the reckless endings of many, many operas. Most excellent. I have never heard this before. This is as good as anything ever made.
This exquisitely beautiful music can literally scare the hell out of you! Wonderful...
Очень трагичное произведение. Прекрасное и гениальное.
monumentale fantastico dvorak fra i miei compositori preferiti
Absolutely stunning!
So beautifull moving and sad music, wonderfull
That painting just hits your soul. A mangled corpse of a once beautiful woman just sends chills to your core.
If you say so.
噢馬 mangled corpses of beautiful women don’t bother you?
@@Mayakran And a woman whose features were of a lesser gentility.
It does
it gives you the feeling or notion that even the most innocent and harmless of beings can face death, struggle or pain
nothing is sacred in a world governed by hatred and wrath
Do you know who painted this?
This is by far one of my favorite pieces of music I've ever heard. I've heard the very beginning somewhere before not too long ago, I have a hard time recalling exactly what or where, either way, this is astounding, had no idea it was Dvorak until now, even though he already was my favorite composer.
How haunting. The image is heart breaking too.
Brilliant, deeply emotional piece of a great composer thank you for downloading 🇺🇸
Un capolavoro ciclopico e travolgente. Dvořák fa parte dell'Olimpo.
I listened Dvorak's Requiem in Armenia 3 days ago. It was amazing.
Thank you so much for this.
I have been listening to many requiems recently.
Such moving music.
This is exquisite
Le requiem le plus émouvant et le plus impressionnant que je connaisse.Son interprétation est magistrale ici. Merci pour ce partage.
Indeed - but another Requiem perhaps equally worth hearing is that by Charles Villiers Stanford (1890s)
this is such a beautiful piece!
the raw sound of hammering my metal creations and.....Dvorak. PURE BEAUTY.
I've sang this piece and find it trully overwhelming and beautiful
You've SUNG this piece.
This is my first time hearing this music and I fall in love with it.
I love that returning four note melody. Almost as a memento mori throughout the whole Requiem
This is an amazing job from Dvorak! In the end of the prayer you really can't know if the absolution will be given or if the condamnation is coming. So dense!
BRAVO, thanks for posting,
Beautiful, haunting but most of all comforting music,
Вот это и есть крупная форма! Два часа наслаждения!!!!
Damn...so powerful. Love this.
Beautiful performance. I've had the opportunity to sing this music (chorus). In the requiem world, it's as good as it gets. Dvorak seems under-appreciated to me, relegated to some second tier. Aside from his great music, he has the added distinction of demonstrating to Americans that they had a music of their own. We Americans should particularly value him. Hurray for Dvorak!
Bennett Markel I don't mean this as an insult but he was Czech and studied in his country, so his music can hardly be called American.
wildnorthsea He may have been Czech, but he was one of the first prominent composers to recognize America's original music and to actually champion it. He encouraged the American elites to embrace their own country's music.
Well put and agreed
Dvorak's music is simply wonderful. He deserves much more recognition than he gets. Personally, I haven't come across any of his works that I did not like, and I have listened to much of his works.
People long ago had such wonderful music
It's a shame people have grown to love rap and hip hop instead of doing something as beautiful as this. It's good to know people still listen to this though. ^.^
Un requiem que deja verdaderamente impactado! Magnífico.
Mark de Zabaleta
excelsa en su estructura, impresionante la conducción del maestro Maris y los solistas un acierto de RUclips.
El cuadro se llama "Homicidio en casa", 1889, de Jakub Schikaneder. / The picture is "Murder in the House", 1889. Jakub Schikaneder.
Not understanding but a handful of the words, between libretto and the instrumentation, the work captures depth from the human experience. 2020 just ended, full of chaos, angst, and anger. 2021 just began, full or chaos, angst, and anger. The music here does not shy away from the realities.
Painting is "Murder in the House" by Jakub Schikaneder.
How they add so much emotion into these pieces are just mind-blowing!
Many people today play modern music at weddings and funerals. Good for them.
I want this played at my funeral. People who disagree are not invited. Actually I won't give a fuck cause I'll be dead by then anyway
I want "Be Thou My Vision" and "Jerusalem" played at mine.
You still alive?
Good feeling by violent femmes at my funeral please
That's gonna be _slightly_ expensive and depressing. Don't recommend. Also that's way too long to play at a funeral.
Thank you for this trip of mind Antonín.. It inspires me every time I hear it! You left behind you something so magical to us!
No esperaba escuchar toda la pieza ahora, pero ya ha terminado, gracias Lord Dvořák, y gracias por subir el vídeo.
The beginning is absolutely amazing...how did I not get a chance to hear it before?!!
People, what do you talking about.
This is deeply emotional work, one of the best sacred music ever composed in Europe and whole World.
Picture show a tragic death of young girl, may be refer to Dvorak child lost.
Please be more respect.
Well said. The analogical skills of the painter are neither here or there; although I think the painting is very gripping.
***** You can not compare Dvorak work to Brahms and Faure. Dvorak along with Mozart, make Requiem Mass with strong Catholic narration and more religious as personal message. Brahms and Faure requiem, it is a healing and more personal work (after death of parents). Dvorak was a Brahms pupil. And Brahms was a Robert Schumann pupil. But Dvorak music has more Schumann taste and it is not surprising for me. Together they were devotion to Jesus in Catholic Church.
***** Good is, that you like sacred music (openly, without prejudice)
But caution !!!! ...He, he.....It may lead you to believe in True God :))))
medieval sacred music is better, because this is western american tonality.
Uh? "American!" ?? America has nothing to do with tonality in music - you should get your facts straight before making such a statement.
Masterpiece of Antonin Dvorak
me encanta, me encanta,me encanta, me encanta
when I'm drunk, it's my favorite friend. Thanks Antonin, i love u.
Thank you Demo, very cool!
