A few words:
Prokofiev, started composing this piece in 1916, and finished it in 1917. It is written in loose imitation of the style of Haydn (and to a lesser extent, Mozart), and is widely known as the Classical Symphony, a name given by the composer. It premiered on April 21, 1918, conducted by Prokofiev himself and has become one of his most popular and beloved works.

10:23 How didn't the flute choke to death?
Anna Contreras I would... totally hahaha
Anna Contreras the 2nd and 1st flutes alternate measures, or alternate each beat. I forget which
very tidy orchestration technique, scherzo to the 5th is stellar as well.
It's not hard to play for professional musicians because of alternation. The hard thing is to be precise in the alternating beginnings... Double tonguing following the same.. Sounds harder when you hear it than it actually is for two
How did the player not swallow the flute?
it's classical with a modren touch... what an absolute gem!
welcome to neoclassicism friend.
modren?
@@callumslefthand ignore the typo, you know that he meant modern.
@@pian1sticpeng_in could you recomend any other neoclassical pieces?

This video is wonderfully edited. The way you cut to a black screen at the end of each movement really adds to the effect.
?????????
however, at end of each of the movements i get f@@@in grammarly ad, which erases all purity of this wonderfull music.
@@yashkindaszkiewicz_music5841 To quote Twosetviolin, ads between movements, sacrilegious! Even more sacrilegious is in the middle of movements.
I like following a score like this :
it shows how much effort and
skill the composer spent to
make this joyful, uplifting work.
If one is starting in music
( e.g., choral singing),
get a recording, listen
till you know it generally
by heart / " ear", then get
the score, and it helps you
understand it better...
In choral singing, at the advanced age of 38,
I started with Handel's "Messiah",
' got it " ( Alto part), then self-taught
basic piano, then
went to several " Come And Sing"
concerts, (one at Bournemouth
Winter Garden : there's posh !).
Then ( overlapping), basic singing
technique lessons, then joined
a choral society .🎼
Best thing I ever did !
I used the same method
to learn ,then sing
Mozart's sublime
Requiem :
" Magic"!,
as it all went perfectly:
Romsey Abbey have :
full of singer's 💕🎼.
Love from England.☺️.
☺️🌟🎹☺️🇬🇧🎼💕
Many thanks
gfy
The flutes, the clarinets...the oboes....the winds......just mind blowing!
*wind blowing
those two flutes in the 4th movement are what I always remembered when I heard this as a kid (my father listened to a lot of classical music)
Pun intended?
Without classical music, where would each of us be? I'm grateful to it forever. Forever.
Damn right! i do believe that two things make worth living in this buddisht evil bay of suffering are intelligent literature and classical music!
I escaped from Facebook to return for some intelligent comments and music.
i'm sure not much would change
this is neo-classicism
Lol come on guys, they're obviously talking generally. I'm sure they know what era of classical music this is.
Our orchestra is going to play this. We are all very nervous. In fact, we are having some "voluntary" rehearsals just for the strings. I hope I can pull this off.
+Vicky Westerfield same ! Even the music for cello is hard.
Vicky Westerfield How was it?
It's also "fun" when you are spammed with 8th note runs at a bit faster than allegro tempo.
It’s four years after your comment on this performance of Prokofiev’s Classical Symphony in D Major. How did your orchestra do?
How did it go?
I believe I read somewhere that Leonard Bernstein fell on the floor in his bedroom laughing the first time he heard the gavotte on the radio.
I really feel with him ^^
I have said elsewhere that parts of this sound like someone laughing loudly.
I sure miss Lenny. Such a presence!
haha!!!!!!!!!!P!!!WNEIS!!!!11
John Shaw I would have said the final movement, 'Molto Vivace', sounds like someone laughing. I also think this final movement sounds a lot like the music that Milt Franklyn, the Music Director of the *Looney Toons* cartoons, was playing with.
Sparkles like sunlight on a clear lake!
wow that was cheesy
Richard .... I could never find the words to describe the first movement and I go to UA-cam and I find your comment. Thank you for putting my excitement and joy into One ... Perfect ... Sentence ...
Hmm, but there's some strange currents - modulations and tonal instabilities that would be highly unusual in the classical period. But the symphony has a reassuring smile on its face, and a cheeky wink here and there.

One of the best things to listen in only 15 minutes...
A beautiful symphony in picturesque, clean neoclassical style. Truly a treasure.
I revisit this often. I love this symphony.
Me too
ME TOO
MEEEE TOOOO!!!
THANK YOU FOR PUTTING THE ADS BETWEEN MOVEMENTS OH MY GOD YOU WOULD NOT BELIEVE THE SHIT I'VE HAD TO EXPERIENCE WITH SOME VERY DELICATE DEBUSSY PIECES
What a dramatic video editing! ahah I love it
At each black screen I can imagine the Netflix "tu tum"
I really like how in this recording you can hear all the separate instruments and their melodies and how they work together. In the recordings I've heard before you could only hear one big harmonic lump
rip flutes 10:30
+TheDerDumme and the oboes
Your pfp makes it even better
yes, my fingers cramp every time i play it (edit *tried* to play it, I cant yet )
Another chirpy masterpiece by Prokofiev along with Peter and the Wolf. It's just adorable !!! :)
Adorable until you actually have to play it. ( cries in corner )
This orchestra plays without a conductor -- which is astonishing! Somehow they have produced one of the sharpest, cleanest, and fastest recordings of this symphony, without a conductor. Most other orchestras audibly struggle with keeping cohesion even at slower tempi.
It's kinda strange how this piece is really short. Normally, a whole movement is this long. But, the piece itself is *Golden!*
I am on a quest to listen to this symphony along with 3 other symphonies, to compare and contrast, according to David Hurwitz's book Beethoven Or Bust (1992) 1. Haydn's #102, Mozart's Symphony No. 40 and Schubert's Symphony No. 5.
This was the first symphony I ever tried listening to while reading the score.....ah, this takes me back! Haven’t managed to play this yet, but that last movement is a rolling fight for first violins - I know it’ll happen for me one day but the fear is real!
The pianissimo timpani at the beginning of the 4th movement is such a nice touch, really adds to the bouncy, playful feeling.
Because I become obsessed with one composer or another, I forget how beautiful a piece like this one is and how much pleasure it has given me throughout the years. Prokofiev is among the gods.
I have been thinking lately that some music must indeed be inspired, as religious people claim that books like the Bible are "the Word of God." Some musical works are so magical, so profound and moving that they seem divine: This is what God is like.
You should checkout Anton Bruckner
Beautiful, thanks for the great upload. I play piano myself, and I love the way you've put all the sheets of music on screen so you can follow along, VERY interesting to watch an orchestra playing! Cheers!
My own attempts to play the piano a long time ago were not very successful but I find seeing the printed score in the video interesting anyway.
I tried that also, many years ago..the first movement.. I managed some chords and. I tried by ear but it was a challenge ! I did not get too far !!
Wonderful. Prokofiev's music sparkles like no one else's.
Until Alma Deutscher.
The 4th mov. is double tounging 101 🤣
Wowwwww Real Perfect love childhood... With this Great Sounds All my life begin to be wonderfull. Hoy 70 and 80.. Dreams.... Dreams....

Thanks for this. Although familiar with listening to the music I hadn't seen the score before. The tempo of the last movement is very fast!
So this score is for conductors not able to transpose? Great recording btw
W tym tygodniu ta piękna symfonia Prokofiewa, to mój zestaw śniadaniowy!
Сыграно филигранно просто!! Фантастика!! И записано тоже шикарно!!
Prokofiev - WOO HOO! What an amazing SYMPHONY you composed here. I hope to hear your new Symphony soon.
Sadly, someone else might have to do it for him.
He just finished his Second symphony. It's a bit different from this one.
crazy woodwinds, especially at the start of the fourth movement
The counterpoint is awesome.
D MAJOR is a good key for this so the strings can ring out 4:02
Why there are so many violin concertos in D

Спасибо
Спасибо БОЛЬШОЕ!
Спасибо тебе, добрый человек!!!
Fabulous performance of a fabulous piece.
Bahahahahaa.
Bahahahahaa!!! What a f'kin awesome Symphony oh Prokofiev, I love you.
I can remember studying form through some of the Haydn piano sonatas via William Cole's book on the subject. Also like most lovers of the string quartet, I can't ignore the Op. 76 set and Op.77 two. Then there are the last 4 symphonies and the Creation, tc... Haydn is a top notch composer, but Prokofiev towers above him in musical genius. I think like many others Prokofiev saw Haydn as alternative to the four giants. Oddly I find Prokofiev to be more the equal of the giants he eschewed than of Haydn. Still, this is immense fun!
+Jonathan Lohn Prokofiev is a composer of very great stature, I agree. It will be of interest to see how his reputation fares in the 21st century.
Which are the four Giants? I've always heard about the 3 ones: Bach, Beethoven and Mozart. Who's the fourth one?
The gavotte was also in his Romeo and Juliet ballet in the masquerade scene
While strolling in the meadows of the present, you can pick bouquets of crazy and improbable flowers, come back with sumptuous extracts of this
sensitive musician and skinned and say that you sometimes gain time to ignore so much of these contemporary musics to finally gain in serenity ;-)
Look up the spitting image version of Peter and the Wolf here on UA-cam. They do a very imaginative and impressive interpretation of this piece.
They have a fantastical dining room in the middle of the woods where Beethoven Hayden Wagner Mozart and Schubert are all of there and we get to watch Peter interact with them…
My neurologist hated Prokofiev. He called him too "squeaky'. 😀
Thanks for the score! And holy cow! Orpheus isn't kidding in the last movement with their MOLTO vivace! Vivacississississime!
Apparently Prokofiev wrote this to counter the critics who said that he wrote the way he did because he couldn't write in classical style. This is a perfect Classical style symphony, and a perfect parody of a Classical style symphony.
When I heard this symphony for the first time I thought that either he lost some bet or wanted to say Look, I can write like that, but I choose not to.
Excellent version - thanks for posting.
Y pensar que Prókofiev escribió esta sinfonía solo para graduarse porque a su profesor de composición se le pegó la gana, ya que era clásico conservador.
Sea cual fuere motivo, se oye claramente que la pieza no el del todo clásica, puesto que el compositor de vez en cuando deja su firma disonante, característica en el resto de sus obras.
Leí una vez que Prókofiev lo hizo para fastidiar a su profesor por lo intenso y crítico que fue al pedirle esa sinfonía y por lo mucho que criticaba la música de vanguardia de su tiempo. Pero, al final, el profesor lo aprobó con tanto gusto que Prókofiev se graduó como compositor.
xD Parece más un mito; pero si fue así, qué romántico el profe de composición Jajaja
Saludos desde el Perú 😃🇵🇪
This is the best recording that exists, and they did it without a conductor.
I wonder if the music that is popular these days really affects people as much as classical music affects me.
1:30 to 1:36 is such a great moment
Those small moments that remind you it isn't Haydn or Mozart...it's so good it's crazy. That particular point actually reminds me of Mahler, oddly. 6:26 is another great spot.
can't believe i only just discovered this. so clearly built on a classical base but with such romantic orchestration and energy. gotta love it
damn the flutists in the finale must be out of breath
Bloody beautiful
Way too short! :)
I've loved this since the first time I heard it decades ago.
The 4th movement especially makes me think "Laughing Symphony" would be a good nickname.
What to say? For me this All My childhood of 70'. We were runing outside and play in old mystory house. Climbing to the roof and me dream that i knight. Wars between children. To find tresurs. Me Moti, Sebasti, Miliano, Yossi hakatan and Gadol Yaakov, Lital, my sister nirit, Amir Shlomi, and i stil dream .... Moti Ramat Gan Israel.
5:34 Sounds like Beehovens 7th symphony 1st movment Vivace.
2:56 12:16 STING CHORDS Prokofiev would use more of these later in film scores
A masterpiece! And such is that a master would give us this gift! Thank you.
Beautiful ! Thank you very much :)
Love this! Thank you!
This is one of those pieces that come up on the radio all my adult life and part of my occupied mind says, I really like this one. And then, finally, I check the "playlist" and voila! another Prokofiev. And so, also finally, it goes on the USB stick for my car. :D
Comme quoi Prokofiev savait tout faire!
Very Good .VERY betefal misuks
LOL, I can't believe this is Prokofiev.
What orchestra is this? Conductor? Its a fine recording!
It's the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra :)
Ah, the orchestra without a conductor, as they advertise.
Is it possible to pick a favorite part of this gem? I love ALL of it!
more like a LEAST favorite part! am i right?
am i right
am i right
am i i right
Nathan Mock No such thing as a least favorite part in this piece bro
Prokofief master of the dance shown by how symphony skips and twirls in its supernal rhythms. He was born to compose ballet like Romeo and Juliet.
So grateful for this score-video
音源に感動しました。
小学生の頃に給食㉂にこの曲を聴いてクラシックに興味が湧いた事を
今でも鮮明に覚えています。
What did Prokofiev compose first: Romeo and Juliet or the symphony? The 3rd movement is the ballet's 18th scene, and they're both Gavotte. Although the symphony's version is shorter, as it makes some cuts from the ballet's version
First this symphony
Pirmā (Klasiskā) simfonija: I d. g.p. 0:05
III d. Gavote 8:33
As a little 4tear old I blew my dad’s mind when I said that this sounded like “Peter and the Wolf!” Which is another work of Prokofiev’s. I could hear the similarities even then. So grateful my father played lots of classical music in our home. 👍🏻👌🏻🫶🏻☺️
I'm loving it. Happy Birthday, Sergei!

I really appreciate the brevity of this Symphony and I wish more were this short.
I find it absolutely astounding that this sweet little symphony was written by the same man who wrote The Fiery Angel.
Forget Fiery Angel, try the 2nd Symphony.
He was being a good boy so he could get his degree and graduate without trouble. :-)
Love his symphonies . . . and this is my fave. I often wonder how Prokofiev would have developed if he hadn't returned to Russia . . . . It's a wonder that any composers survived during the reign of the Red Tsar . . . .
Unbelivable how this God Sounds is in notes... always i listen to this, and to look this.. amaizing!!!
Yorkshire TV used this as the theme tune for The Flaxton Boys-a series broadcast between 1969 & 1973. Probably got me into classical music!
Ha ha! Something was afoot at Flaxton hall!
when i saw the thumbnail i thought it was the LWIAY song harmonized or whatever
that's an insane tempo
the second part has a Mozart feeling in my mind
Imagine knowing nothing about this but just listening coz it gives a good amt of serotonin
The Gavotta is one of the best pieces of music ever, on par with the opening of Mozart's 40th...
He enjoys C major at the middle part ending, like a child enjoying a favourite toy
The beauty is in the simplicity of the themes. So clear and bright!
Definitely a part of it. I can't imagine ever getting tired of this.
I was attracted by Bassons but now only realizing I'm trapped with the whole orchestra ❤
Excellent work in its own merit but neither Hadyn / Mozart wrote unserious music.
Is it me or does the audio changes sides from time to time? Beautiful symphony btw.
loved the flute harmony at 6:46
One chord is no harmony
Love this start to finish.
Marvelous!! It's a hard work!!Great thanks,
(from Taiwan)
brilliant composer. what a work!
I just love the first movement's closing material!! And the rest of it, of course, but particularly that.
Only here just because I need to listen to it for my school activity/seatwork
Is always a joy to hear... from the incredibly gifted composer, of Mithraikosi; not actually Slavic, although some great composers and pianists were... Very, uncannily acquainted with the stately Classical period- perhaps he was the well-known writer, Papus, in a former life experience. With genius someone could compose a work like this...!
Orchestra + alberti bass = omg.
弾けるような、素晴らしいこの曲を聞きながらも、突然の死がすぐ身近にあることを深く感じます。大杉漣さんのあまりの早い死を悼んでいます。素晴らしい俳優でした。さようなら。この曲が天国のあなたに届きますように。
It sounds so Shostakovich and Britten!😱😍
If sombody will ask me What is Lost Childhood...
For me is myself fall in dreams in winter// Look and love Birds, Cats' Many kind of Plants
To hide in Old hous in Ramat Gan and To Love and Hug This Wonderful Souns! Sy No 1 !
Great Sergei Prokofiev - Haleluya Russia! Always we will Love this Dreaming Notes!
