  • Опубликовано: 10 июл 2015
  • Gustav Theodore Holst (born Gustavus Theodore von Holst; 21 September 1874 - 25 May 1934) was an English composer, arranger and teacher. Best known for his orchestral suite The Planets, he composed a large number of other works across a range of genres, although none achieved comparable success. His distinctive compositional style was the product of many influences, Richard Wagner and Richard Strauss being most crucial early in his development. The subsequent inspiration of the English folksong revival of the early 20th century, and the example of such rising modern composers as Maurice Ravel, led Holst to develop and refine an individual style.

      @@TheRottingCorps I think the piece has moved transiently to Eb in that phrase - if you look at the accidentals and the harmonies used. Then the ending can be seen as a classic ii V Vi.

Even better, their recording of Sviridov's 'Reveille' which I listen to every day just to be uplifted. That one will blow you away.

    I LOVE this song. I became acquainted with it in conducting class at The University of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado.Thank you so much, Bartje, for this exquisite scored version sung by the Cambridge Singers. The conductor in this verson, John Rutter, conducted my choir as a visiting conductor. The volume, to me, is perfect because the song is meditative, being not only about physical love but transcendent Love as well.

    i haven't seen anyone say this but i'm sure it's not original- our high school choir felt that the repeated "i love my love" at the end is her rocking back and forth, finally going crazy because her love never came for her and the happy ending is all in her head

      @@antonbruckner7329 It would be interesting research, if data is available, which is not, how many composers actually really were "religious". How would we know if a guy like Palestrina was "really religious"? To openly profess the opposite would've meant career suicide and in earlier cases the burn pile. People were groomed to conform from the outside. But in the inside? What were their private thoughts? The problem is that nobody put those thoughts in letters, that would be stupid. In Mozart's days the police would read them. I think that, to give an example, Mozart on purpose wrote letters full of wit, nonsense, dirty jokes, etc. etc. to give those readers, his superiors, anybody, a false impression of him being immature and silly guy. While in the inside he was highly intelligent, extremely private....I think he fooled everybody. Hey , just a thought nice to share here.
