I wish that Respighi were better known and appreciated. His gift for melody and composition are supreme. His music is so evocative of whatever subject that he’s portraying in notes and sound that you can see the pictures in your mind. Respighi is in a category all by himself.🎵
Conchamar, have you listened to Respighi’s lesser known works such as “The Birds”, “Church Windows”, “Ancient Airs and Dances Suites 1 and 2” and “Adagio Con Varrietzion” for cello and orchestra? As much as I love “The Pines of Rome” and “Fountains of Rome” I love these pieces equally. Rimsky-Kosakov, Respighi and Ravel are considered to be the greatest of all orchestrators in all of the history of classical music. What’s interesting is that both Respighi and Ravel studied orchestration from Rimsky. His ideas must’ve made a profound impact on these two students. If you listen to the music written by all three men each has their own unique style and yet the way they orchestrated their music you can almost immediately tell that they understand the same special musical language that no other composers, not even the likes of Bach, Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Schubert et al have managed to learn.🎵

That thunderous entrance of the full plenum and tutti on the organ at 22:54 just had me in pure disbelief. It’s as if the powers of God himself spoke in the most earthmoving and grandiose fashion!!Absolutely sublime!
I feel like this moment is meant to be the musical representation of St Gregory the Great during a Mass he's depicted holding in the stained-glass window. I have to say, it's very powerful, beautiful, divine & absolutely God-given. I feel like many people my not realise this, but Respighi was (and grew up as) a very devout Catholic. The entire movement is an absolute favourite of mine, and I think Respighi's depiction of this scene is meant to be seen ad the most glorious church window, reflecting his deep Christain faith. This piece was definitely one that helped renew my faith, just by the utter depth in what a composer can pull out as inspiration. Thank you Respighi, and equally many thanks Bartje for this upload!
Many, many thanks for uploading this! I've wanted to peruse the score for years. This may very well be my favorite Respighi piece. As far as I'm concerned, he had few equals in orchestration. Thanks again! Keep doing this! There are those of us out who *really* appreciate all your efforts!
Respighi, l'un des plus grands symphonistes de l'histoire de la musique signe avec cette suite, une vision évocatrice et saisissante de ce que racontent ces vitraux. Du grand art. Une interprétation fort séduisante et une belle présence de l'orgue. Merci à Bartje Bartmans pour ce bon choix.
D'une poésie admirable. À travers la rose du vitrail quelle beauté l'on pressent dès l'entrée grâce au mode ecclésiastique... que la musique nous donne à voir avec une sorte de grandeur et de sérénité ensorcelantes !
also kudos to that bass trombone player when I first listened to this months ago I thought that was an entire ensemble of trombones, it blows my mind how just a single well-practiced trombone (and tuba lol) can come out over an entire orchestra playing at full blast
from what I understand, the bass trombone and tuba part are written on the same part. so I guess I was a bit off - it was the bass trombone and tuba. still really impressive though!
Half the orchestra is playing a triplet pattern for 2 beats which becomes an eighth note pattern for 2 beats, while the other half does the opposite at the same time, then every 2 measures the halves switch. It's super complicated and not really important so long as it comes out as a wash of sounds echoing and imitating each other. It's great.
That's not an appropriate use for the harp... long monophonic solos are not what harps are good at. You couldn't control the phrase properly, the crescendo and diminuendo would be very hard to convey and since you can't control sustain on the harp it would become quite blurry. If anything, the harp could double the clarinet.
You can't really go wrong with Respighi if you want fine, lush, powerfully orchestrated tone poems.
Ottorino Respighi, l' autore della grande trilogia romana; grazie!

yes! i re discovered him thanks to Leon Krier

Respighi is a great Alchimest of the music, and will transcend time and Space

Exactly.....BRAVO from Mexico City!
I'll never forget playing this with the Catholic University orchestra in St. Matthews Cathedral in DC. Unbelievable experience.

Beyond WOW...how did he DO this? Miraculous ~

+Scott Thomson And I am one of them (one of many, I am sure)
HI Scott! Look up IMSLP.org
Without doubt, along with Berlioz, one of the greatest orchestrators of all time!
The orchestration of Respighi îs so rich, it îs a wonderful work. Thank you very much for the score

from 21:48 to 22:53 tempo 18/8...What a mastery! Immeasurably beautiful.
It's in my favorite key too.

Thank you very much for the score. The orchestration of Respighi is wonderful.

the comment I was looking for
Thanks brother ☝️

Progrockers Emerson, Lake & Palmer always used to end their concerts in the 70's with this music from 27:04
- I can see coloured Gothic glasses throught this music...
Wonderful !!!
6:46 - 7:30 Hebron Penstriped Intro 😎
part 3 of allen’s lux aeterna too 🤷
incredible!
im trying to figure out the counting at 26:05 and I can't wrap my head around it
it sounds real cool though
also kudos to that bass trombone player
when I first listened to this months ago I thought that was an entire ensemble of trombones, it blows my mind how just a single well-practiced trombone (and tuba lol) can come out over an entire orchestra playing at full blast
It's doubled though; is that instrument in the staff above another trombone or a trumpet?
from what I understand, the bass trombone and tuba part are written on the same part. so I guess I was a bit off - it was the bass trombone and tuba. still really impressive though!
Organ: + A-- + A +-- +.
Half the orchestra is playing a triplet pattern for 2 beats which becomes an eighth note pattern for 2 beats, while the other half does the opposite at the same time, then every 2 measures the halves switch. It's super complicated and not really important so long as it comes out as a wash of sounds echoing and imitating each other. It's great.
The ending of the final movement is like the Second Coming.
Emerson, Lake and Palmer used the last two pages as their final curtain call at the end of their concerts at the Royal Albert Hall in 1992.
Where the hell is the fortissimo organ pedal at 27:48? I think I will stick with Ormandy.
You mean 22:48?
@@Maddenhawk I don't know what I meant, but the organ pedal is really at 8:08, I must have had a brain cramp. Thanks for setting me straight.
What is the double staff abbreviated A. for?

Piccolo trumpet solo...
I would have given those scalar runs at the beginning to the harp instead of the clarinet.
nah
That would make the texture more interesting, good idea
That's not an appropriate use for the harp... long monophonic solos are not what harps are good at. You couldn't control the phrase properly, the crescendo and diminuendo would be very hard to convey and since you can't control sustain on the harp it would become quite blurry. If anything, the harp could double the clarinet.
SpaghettiToaster maybe as more of a glissando sweep, but I think the clarinet is far better suited for that section tbh?
I think you should write your own piece
