Danke für Ihr Kommentar. Obwohl ich hier nur der Dirigent bin :) kann ich Ihnen nur empfehlen, direkt Klaus Simon zu kontaktieren. Seine Koordinaten finden Sie auf der Internetseite von seinem Orchester in Freiburg (Holst-Sinfonietta). Aber so lang ich weiss ist die Partitur (und das Orchestermaterial nur leihweise zu bekommen. Zur Ansicht können Sie jederzeit die Partitur von UE haben. Haben Sie auch meine Aufnahme von der 3. gehört (ebenfalls von K. Simon arrangiert)? Ist auf meinem Kanal zu hören. Herzliche Grüsse!

Timestamps would have been useful...

Thank you very much for your kind comment. I fully agree with you. These arrangements for chamber orchestra have no intention to replace the original. However they are very usefull to reach an audience which could possibly not get a close contact to the large symphony halls. This was exactly our purpose here, as we performed the puiece in a small church in a remote small town. Certainly at least for a half of the audience this was a first contact with a live performance of a Mahler Symphony (even if very certainly everybody knew the piece from CD). Furthermore it was for the Nouvel Ensemble Contemporain a healthy confrontation to another repertoire as they are usually performing, means contemporary music. You maybe will also enjoy Klaus Simon's arrangement of Mahler 3d and 6th, as I performed them as a premiere with the Musikkollegium Orchestra Winterthur. Have an hear on my channel moherr1. Also both as a curiosity to enjoy!

Tout à fait d'accord avec vous. Le but de cette réduction de l'orchestration était de la rendre encore plus accessible. Espérons que cela encouragera des ensembles à la programmer, d'autant plus qu'elle a trouvé une belle place au catalogue de UE Wien. Merci pour votre commentaire et visitez mon canal!

Ja, warum nicht? Wäre spannend, was für eine Choreografie dabei entstehen würde.

Beginnt wo?

I conducted "his" Nr 3 last week as a premiere. Coming soon on youtube. Klaus said it would be the last possible one to be transcribed, as he achevied now 1,3,4,5,6,7, and 9. I do agree with him. 2 and 8 wouldn't be reasonnable. All transcriptions available at Universal Edition Wien. J'ai eu le bonheur de diriger "sa" 3ème la semaine passée, en première audition. Une vraie réussite, malgré le fait que nous ayons dû renoncer aux choeurs (corona...). Klaus a transcrit le Lied (mvt no5) pour voix et orchestre. lLa vidéo du live stream sera bientôt en ligne. Abonnez-vous à ma chaîne. Et merci pour la question.

Thank you! I will tellyour kind comment to the Soloist

No trombone. Maybe we did it well "as if"! I added a 3rd Horn to double and relieve. Same way for he trumpet. Mahler 3 coming soon in February 2021, same Arrangeur, same orchestra, same conductor. Thank you for listening so carefully. You may be like also ua-cam.com/video/K3hnoS-8-2Q/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/Ywc0SsTxEv4/v-deo.html

@@moherr1 , what is the orchestration for Mahler 3, please?

@@davetodd4906 Klaus Simon: 1* 1* 2* 1; 2*2* 0 0; 3Perc. Piano; Acc.; 6 5 4 4 2 (or at least 4 4 4 3 2). There is already another arrangement by Ronald Kornfeil in UE Catalog 1 1 2 1 - 1 1 1 0 - Schl(1-2), Klav, Str (1 1 2 1 1 od. mehrfach besetzt). I'm not sure it could work because of the many divisi passages in the strings... Tank you for asking!

Hi dadshome2, we did it with a 4.4.3.3.2. String section as decided together with Klaus Simon. According to me it wouldn't be wise to do it with a solo 5tet.

Stands? Individuals?​@@moherr1

Score and parts are published by Universal Edition Wien, as well as all Mahler symphonies transribed by Klaus Simon

Dear Wilson, This is a discussion we had together with Klaus. In this specific case I also would prefer the sound of timpani. His idea is to remain as close as possible to a "chamber sound" without loosing the symphonic mood. I will conduct in February the premiere of his version of Mahler 3rd. It will surely appear on youtube.

I agree completely. I was totally convinced by this realisation and was greatly enjoying it until the tympani fate theme in the finale. This should be so powerful (above all in the final bars), and on the piano it's barely audible - so this is a definite failure in terms of the stated aim of this arrangement, which is clarity of line. But even without adding tympani, I hear a bass drum and side drum: both of these could have reinforced that all-important line and given it the necessary weight. Not a perfect solution, but surely better than not being able to hear it.

Strange times, indeed !!

Hi Carlos Thank you for your comment. If you apprehend Mahler's music only as a punching music you'll hardly appreciate this kind of arrangement. I think however there are many details that remain hidden in the original version precisely because of the opulence of the orchestration. Klaus Simon’s work reveals on many occasion the quintessence of the symphony. Nevertheless your opinion is absolutely respectable!

@@moherr1 , Thank you for your words. I strongly believe that a great deal of Mahler's power in communication and enchantment stands hidden in ppp passages for some instruments although the other members of the orchestra keep the ordinary dinamics of their voices. It is not to be heard and one can just barily fill it. It is obviously not a voice of its own, (something that some new maestros don't respect and proudly bring it forward as a great new discovery! Urrrgh!) but it is there for a simple important reason: colour. It may seem to be of little importance but the lack of it shows not. Well, for my old ears, at least. Cheers

That's only your opinion. Good music works also in different dresses. Think of Schönbergs "Verein für musikalische Privataufführungen". And in Corona Times these arrangements are so beloved and are played around worldwide....

@@CarlosPenteado Than you should hear better in the recording. Nothing of the oroginal is missing. No note. Look in the score and you will believe me.

Well, it sounds like a compliment, thank you! Maybe you will appreciate Jeannine's voice in this video ua-cam.com/video/DJiqK1FAqTY/v-deo.html

Thank you so much for your very kind comment. Yoshida should be played much more often! The recording you meant was a revelation to me. I tried to go in the same spirit. In this program we performed also Hosowawa's The Raven (coming soon on my channel). Tomoko Taguchi hold the soprano part.

Klaus Simon a déjà orchestré 1, 4, 5, 7, 9. La 6ème a été créée le 9 mars 2019 avec le Musikkollegium de Winterthour (Suisse), et la 3ème en 2021 avec le même orchestre, sous la conduite de Pierre-Alain Monot. Tout est publié chez Universal Editions Wien. Klaus s'arrête là. La 2ème et la 8ème ne peuvent vraiment pas faire l'objet d'une telle transformation, selon. Je l'approuve entièrement. Le tout à voir sur ma chaîne mohher1. Merci de votre commentaire!

La 4ème est déjà disponible chez Claves, avec le MythenEnsembleOrchestral, Rachel Harnisch et sous la direction de Graziella Contratto. La 1ère va sortir au printemps 2019 chez Schweizer Fonogramm, même ensemble et même chef. La 5ème existe aussi sous la direction de Klaus Simon et le Holst-Sinfonietta chez bastille musique.

@@fred2bern excellentissime enregistrement, vous avez raison de le mentionner, merci

merci pour lui! et cette manière d'intégrer ces thèmes de Carnaval est tellement subtile. J'avais eu un immense plaisir à diriger cette oeuvre.

@@moherr1 ..compositeur moi même auriez vous l'obligeance d'ecoutez deux de mes oeuvres postées sur UA-cam Au mont des Oliviers et Que Cherchez vous ? ...et m'en donner votre impression .

@@MrJazzharmonie1'ai écouté et j'aimerais bien vous faire part de mes impressions ailleurs que sur UA-cam. Si vous le désirez, envoyez-moi votre adresse mail à monot@shinternet.ch. Meilleures salutations. P.-A. Monot

swiss composer

I invite you to discover other works by this french/swiss composer. For example other symphonies like de tr re or liturgical Symphony. You could be suprised!

Thank you so much for the ensemble and Klaus Simon. Coming soon: Mahler 6, March 2019
