    I'm just here for academic purposes, and I ended up liking Stravinsky's music.

    For people who have no clue as to what the story is it goes like this. At the shrovtide fair in St. Petersburg a magician brings three puppets to life. The first is Petrushka the clown, second is the ballerina and third is a moor. Petrushka loves the ballerina but the ballerina prefers the moor. They have a big scuffle and they leave the theatre. The moor kills Petrushka with his scimitar and Petrushka’s ghost haunts both the moor and the magician.

      Yes, indeed. When you follow the score with the performance, you realize how beautifully the tapestry is woven together from its various fabrics and threads and likewise visualize the genius and brilliance behind its composition. But how the musicians play the complex mixed meters and cross-rhythms so perfectly is beyond me. I wonder how the 1911 musicians reacted upon first seeing their parts.

    The part that starts around 18:40 ! The percussion is playing in a completely different rhythm from everybody else. So Stravinsky! There's a lot of that in this score & others of his pieces. These rhythmic complexities are SO beautifully organic - they're not forced onto the music but seem to be essential to it. A few years ago I attended a performance of The Rite of Spring and had a seat where I could really see the musicians. The rhythms were just insane.

  • @stephenjablonsky1941

    This is the 2,345 time I have heard this piece and it never fails to blow my mind. This has always been my favorite piece. It is the most exciting, bright, alive piece written in the 20th century. I have no idea how Stravinsky came up with this new way of communicating in so short a time. I know that every player in the orchestra thinks they have the best part--the sign of a great orchestrator. How wonderful it is to see so many experts collaborating to create this amazing performance. There is no piece more electric than this...I know because my brain is fried.

    The begining of the first mov. feels like a spright morning rising in the woods, full of birds dancing and water spraying down a river. I can imagine this as the mood of any kind of natural landscape in a merry morning. It could even be the mood of a rising dawn in a snowy country. And it also fits so well at a brazilian morning in a field, a river, a waterfall...😎🤗

    • @evanwhite5704
      @evanwhite5704 6 років тому +7

      It is possible to be into a piece of music without moving around. I think it has something to do with different instruments. As a trombone player, I always try to direct my sound forward and would never even think of moving around because it is not really feasible. However I do see people who play smaller instruments that don't point directly forwards often moving around. Also I will admit that in jazz playing I do notice myself moving very slightly with the direction of notes, but only in specific pieces that have no real correlation to how much I am "into it"

      While the school of thought that musicians should let the music speak for itself (sing?) exists, I'm with you. Especially as a featured Orchestra, where the audience is watching the musicians. Movement conveys energy and emotion.

      If you've ever actually performed Petrouchka, you would know that it is a very nerve wracking experience due to the extreme meter changes employed by Stravinsky. Movements by the musicians may just be an attempt to keep time and relieve some excess energy in a piece like this.

    5:44 I'm in love with this woman.
    Saw her and the entire orchestra with Petrouchka in spring 2019 in the Konzerthaus in Berlin.
    It was a extraordinaire highlight for me as a persistant visitor of classic concerts and lover of Strawinsky since decades.
    A memorable evening!
    I learned to appreciate the C. O. many years ago (in the eighties) when I listened to recordings (on vinyl wich I still own) with i. e.
    the legendary Sir Neville Marriner as conductor.
    Petrouchka is (I guess I can say so) my favorite piece of music since the early eighties when I was twenty and a friend introduced me to Strawinsky, at first with the Histoire du soldat (The Soldier’s Tale) and than Petrouchka. I fell in love from the first moment.
    And that passion lasts until today.

I am speaking of one of the most under appreciated trumpet section. Where would orchestras be without them. Shame on the ignorant.
