- Der Titel - Alborada del Gracioso - bedeutet wörtlich "Morgenständchen eines Narren."
1973 wurde Ozawa Musikdirektor des Boston Symphony Orchestra und war es bis 2002, also fast 30 Jahre.
Ozawa erhielt die Ehrendoktorwürden der University of Massachusetts, des New England Conservatory of Music und des Wheaton College, Norton (Massachusetts).
First 40 seconds are some of my favorite in all of music, period.
Same here
Ut is allowed..😉😆🌺
Strepitoso,grandissimi direttore ed orchestra.Favolosi!
Alborada is the time of dawning (alba: dawn), and can refer also to a poetic or musical composition about dawn, or music played, usually outdoors, to announce the beginning of the day. (Even military music for the same purpose). Gracioso is a funny person, and in classical Spanish theater referred to a typical character, usually a servant, who behaved comically; generally speaking, an actor who performs comical parts. Thus, a gracioso can be a jester.
Thanks.
Couldn't find this, and didn't know the name of it, though I had every note of it in my head! I was pretty sure it was Ravel, but he wrote a number of Spanish pieces and I kept going through them and saying, no, no, no! This one had "fireworks" in it, I remembered as a kid. I also thought it reminded me of a prancing Arabian horse. (Spanish horse?). This is really breathtakingly beautiful and a "pocket symphony". Imagine covering that much musical ground in 7 minutes.
SEIJI absoluto!!!!! genial maestro....poucos conseguem captar as cores da musica , como OZAWA!!
Maravilhosooooo!!! Poesias com notas musicais! belíssimo!!!
musica misteriosa, con ricordi spagnoleschi, ma modernissima come solo Ravel puo' fare.
Excelente interpretação! Very good!
What is going on in this piece? Did Ravel ever explain? It sounds vaguely Latin one moment, then like a circus later on. It's sensuous, whimsical, violent. There is nothing quite like it, especially comparing the beginning (innocent) and end (ominous and dark). Alborada is a jester?
Actually, is was just supposed to replicate a court jester; the Latin sounds are an odd coincidence.
It was actually because Ravel grew up in west France, near Spain, and a lot of his music has some Latin stuff
The bassoon in the middle section is imitating a type of traditional Spanish male singing
I think Ravel was the early morning yellling, screaming ,crazy drunken ,gibberish shouting lunatic the music is about(Shocked by the Spain he imagined and the Spain that really existed).
?
It might be wise to read a biography or two before arriving at that conclusion.
@@jwinder2 Well, for what its worth (in her defense), Ravel isn't exactly the easiest person/composer to understand (esp. at deeper levels)... 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
One of the elements of Ravel's psyche that made a lot of sense to me, when trying to understand him better in the past, was that recurring "rhythm" he always had going on in his brain, etc. It explains A LOT. (In other words, rather than some form of hysteria, etc., it was more along the lines of something like Ravel needing to get rid of/put down on paper/compose the rhythm/rhythms he always had going on in his psyche on some level. And there was a LOT of energy in those rhythms, obviously.
His harmonies tell you a lot more about his soul. 😊😊😊😊 He could be wry and witty, imaginative and introspective, dapper and debonaire, fancy and fantastical, peaceful and proper/polite, all of these sorts of things.
