Lol don't heed @@FreakieFan. Great pieces are mountains to climb on and surpass. Guido is likely bitter not apparently having the inspiration and/or creativity you seem to possess.
@@FreakieFan Correct, most masterpieces don't come out of thin air, but are the perfecting of predecessors' work and contributions. See Handel, who took from multiple different Baroque traditions throughout Europe, Bach's perfecting of contrapuntal forms he didn't invent, Mozart's entire output as an absorption, amalgamation, perfection of Classical styles invented by others throughout Europe, Brahms building on Beethoven, the Beatles taking from many people, etc. Mozart plagiarized and expanded on many others' works throughout his career; see for example the closing theme and chord progression from the 4th fugato movement of his Jupiter Symphony, which he lifted from the closing theme of the fugato 4th movement Michael Haydn's symphony of the same key, or his Requiem which is inspired by Michael Haydn's requiem in C minor (especially the Quam olim Abrahae, at the end of Domine Jesu, which is from Michael Haydn's own Quam oim Abrahae.) If they had youtube comments back then, I guess they'd be knocking anyone who used Alberti bass who wasn't D. Alberti himself, and Mozart's K183 Con Brio would be knocked for using Stamitz's Mannheim rockets. A composition building on preexisting music can count as creativity any day, and the quantity and quality of the creativity is based on what the new composer actually adds to and improves on the original. You didn't hear what Finn Music wrote, so of course you are not in any position to actually gauge what his level of creativity is. But we /do/ know that he imagines places where that music can be expanded/elaborated/ improved/perhaps built to greater heights and depths, even if a small improvement, and has the drive to execute, as well as the critical thinking attitude to not be easily satisfied with some predecessors' work as being sufficient. Much better that than a complacency and/or lack of imagination and inspiration to see past what Tchaikovsky created, as you have. IMO a great critical thinking composer should always ask of a piece, no matter how great it is, "hypothetically, if this is the threshold for garbage, what/where/how would great be?" Shakespeare, Mozart, Beethoven, Bach, Einstein etc didn't kick the ball forward by having the reverent attitude: "my predecessors did a great job, they are right, they did everything right, have perfected everything and did everything to completion; nothing more in this field is needed."
I got to hear this live and after the fourth movement ended the audience was silent. We didn't start clapping until about 20 seconds after the conductor lowered his baton

The Author died at the mature age (at that moment) of 53. At that age the mere hypothesis of suicide out of love Affairs (homosexual or Not) SOUNDS Crazy and is absolutely unconvincing.

I read about this 6th symphony and did not know it was so beautifully and intricately constructed. It seems to take the listener by the lap and throw him to the ground in complete helplessness. The end is a brutal example of chaos, a feeling that precedes death...
THE most shattering, moving symphony--- move over Mahler. Where did Tchaikovsky get this depth of feeling? And his premature death soon after its premiere-- like it or not-- adds extra non musical poignancy to it all....we are beneficiaries in this musical pyrric victory....
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 6 in B Minor, Op. 74 “Pathetique” Listen to the seven minute fourteen second mark of this video; shit will change your life. [Right Here]: 7:14 Although, on Apple Music you need to go to the six minute thirty-nine second mark.
Favorite song of a crazy hyper intelligent russian military AI with arsenals of planet destroying weapons and I can see why after hearing bits of this in destiny 2 for a while and now coming to listen to the whole thing. What a beautiful piece.
Does the name Pathetique for Tchaikovsky's sixth symphony have anything to do with Beethoven's eighth piano sonata, also named Pathetique? Just wondering, because I'm seeing a slight resemblance between the 2 Pathetiques, especially in their respective first movements(slow tempo coming back in the middle of the first movement, emotional drama, Tremolo in the Allegro)
Pathetique means emotional Tchaikovsky died nine days after the premiere of this, leaving us with a “hidden message” but no clues or answer. He is definitely known for his epic endings, and surely surprised his audience when they first heard this.
@@thesilvershining I agree. I think it’s the saddest moment in all of music literature. Immediately proceeding is probably the brass chorale at the end of Mahler’s Sixth finale. That octave fall on the tuba from the high A to the low A is really sad.
الانسان و رحلة البحث عن السعادة المنشودة و حقيقة الفشل او النجاح اثناء حياته في ذالك البحث المحير عنها الطويل و المضني صنع الحزن الدفين حين اظهره الى العلن
Incorrect. It's a common misconception that has somewhat tainted people's reactions and interpretation of the work. The Pathetique was completed in August 1893. Between then and his death in November, he wrote the Piano Concerto No. 3. The Pathetique was just the last piece premiered in his lifetime.
@@philipconnelly1505 "Incorrect" It's not really a piano concerto it was first supposed to be a symphony but then he reworked it as a one-movement Allegro brillante for piano and orchestra. It was published as opus 75 and only then, only after, did the publisher, not the composer, call it his 3rd piano concerto.
@fmyoung Still, the Pathetique wasn't the last thing he wrote. Let's not Romantize and mythologize it. Remember also that there is NO evidence that Tchaikovsky committed suicide. Few people would speak of the Sixth in the way they do had he written a seventh, eighth, ninth... I've nothing against the piece, it's great, but it's not the "suicide note" that people make it out to be.
that bass at the end sounds like Tchaikovsky's heart beating, until it stops, and he is no more.
No doubt This right after experiencing ultimate tragedy
Except after finishing the Pathetique, he went on to write the Piano Concerto No. 3.
It is often misconstrued as his final statement before his slow meander into the abyss, but his death was quite unexpected. Still, perhaps there are powers at play we could never begin to comprehend , and when I hear those final arching chords before the gradual end, I think maybe on some unfathomable level he perhaps knew.

The incredible desperation and pain from 12:40
Heartbreaking
One of the best moments in music history imo
And the last movt too especially; the first one ends in peace but the finale ends in utter pain and ultimate tragedy
This movt ends peacefully though unlike the finale which is unbearable pain and ultimate tragedy (leading to death as it were)
No doubt There's lots of conflict there
Funny observation: the second theme in the second movement (20:10) also appears later in the fourth movement (42:34), but much darker.
Tchaikovsky also often does this in his 4th and 5th symphony. Later using the same melodies but in altered form (major/minor for instance)
The beauty of Tchaikovsky's art!
@@jakehouston3377
It's called cyclical sonata form! Pioneered in the classical era by Haydn/Mozart, but perfected to how we know it today by Liszt.
@@jakehouston3377 I agree
It's just cyclic structure. Beethoven invented it in his famous 5th Symphony (the da-da-da-duh)
4th Movement is just something, it is just a Funeral, nothing can top this level of death. Not even Mozart!

Tchaikovsky poured himself right out in this last and most tragic piece of his

Seriously lol. The symphony ends on a slow movement, which was very unusual. That's why people mistake the third movement as a finale.

非常に勉強になりました。ありがとうございます!
This year i'm playing the sixth symphony. Movements I and IV always make my cry.
I always feel a jolt btw. movts 3 & 4 all that joy in the 3rd is suddenly followed by pain which in turn leads to ultimate tragedy
First time listening to this piece and I didn't know that 5/4 minuets existed until now, but I'm delightfully surprised.
It's a waltz, but yeah it's really interesting that it feels so natural in an irregular time signature.
Another successful evocation of a dance in 5/4 is Danse Générale in Ravel’s Daphnis et Chloé
Fantastico! I am so glad that I was able to listen to this fully without interruptions.
Interesting to think that even though the piece was composed in the nineteenth century, and even though 58 years separate it and its recording and another 60+ the recording and us, we can still hear what the composer had in mind and what sounds he envisioned
The last part is awesome
An outpouring of a broken heart by Tchaikovsky and such a beautiful and melancholic genius expression

I read about this 6th symphony and did not know it was so beautifully and intricately constructed.
It seems to take the listener by the lap and throw him to the ground in complete helplessness.
The end is a brutal example of chaos, a feeling that precedes death...
thank you for this upload. It's excellent.
Still can't get over that 5/4 "3-legged waltz" time signature.
It's more of a limp waltz bc of just that, the 5/4 meter
bro größter ehrenmann was würd ich ohne dich tun...
The second movement shows that Tchaikovsky was one of the very few composers who knew how to use the melodious aspect of the Cello.
thanks for those uploads :D
THE most shattering, moving symphony--- move over Mahler. Where did Tchaikovsky get this depth of feeling? And his premature death soon after its premiere-- like it or not-- adds extra non musical poignancy to it all....we are beneficiaries in this musical pyrric victory....
I’m doing this for the regional youth orchestra this year omgg ❤❤
What kind of psychopath puts ads in the MIDDLE of a movement???!!!
i’m playing bassoon in this for youth orchestra (send help)
What a great melodist composer!
12:55... the most painful moment i've ever heard in a symphony... it's beautiful.

This part scares everyone off
SO GOOD I LOVE IT ITS LIKE DIGGING YOUR FACE INTO A CAKE and the last movement is sad because you finished it lmfaoooo
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 6 in B Minor, Op. 74 “Pathetique”
Listen to the seven minute fourteen second mark of this video; shit will change your life.
[Right Here]: 7:14
Although, on Apple Music you need to go to the six minute thirty-nine second mark.
Favorite song of a crazy hyper intelligent russian military AI with arsenals of planet destroying weapons and I can see why after hearing bits of this in destiny 2 for a while and now coming to listen to the whole thing. What a beautiful piece.
Wow. Thats about all I can say... wow
36:44 is such a wonderful theme
9:32 how pleasant 😍

Why's no one commenting about 10:32-11:08?
There is too much great parts in this symphony. We can’t comment about all of them !
Does the name Pathetique for Tchaikovsky's sixth symphony have anything to do with Beethoven's eighth piano sonata, also named Pathetique? Just wondering, because I'm seeing a slight resemblance between the 2 Pathetiques, especially in their respective first movements(slow tempo coming back in the middle of the first movement, emotional drama, Tremolo in the Allegro)
The nickname for the symphony was given by Tchaikovsky's brother after the composer's death...
Pathetique means emotional
Tchaikovsky died nine days after the premiere of this, leaving us with a “hidden message” but no clues or answer. He is definitely known for his epic endings, and surely surprised his audience when they first heard this.
The original russian title should be translated as Passionate instead of Pathétique.
@@davidecarlassara8525 1.Yes, the evening after the premiere
2. No, he died 9 days after
@@bullshitman155 ah okay then!
Could you do the Cinderella Suites by Prokofiev or Glazunov’s The Seasons please?
36:23 (bassoon) a chopin ballad 1 reference???
(I'm pretty sure it's a coincidence but funny nonetheless)
I've been trying to make an argument that Mvt II is one of the most elegant and romantic 'slow' movements and is underrated--

It's interesting how he modulated from Em6 to Bm in the ending, because it's very traditional to modulate Em6 to B instead of Bm...
42:16 to the end... MY GOD!!! 😭😭😭😭
The saddest two minutes in symphonic literature. The musical equivalent of giving in to utter despair and death T_T
@@thesilvershining I agree. I think it’s the saddest moment in all of music literature. Immediately proceeding is probably the brass chorale at the end of Mahler’s Sixth finale. That octave fall on the tuba from the high A to the low A is really sad.
I agree, and the fast movement reminds me this open.spotify.com/track/5cRCQb5Eim9mz5rml7SyEL?si=ecf55668e2834859

And to think there was once a time when Tchaikovsky's ability as a symphonist was in question.
Are the opening measures of the fourth movement based on the b minor section of the second movement?

The Pathetique is both Tchaikovsky's last and most tragic piece published during his lifetime.
Incorrect. It's a common misconception that has somewhat tainted people's reactions and interpretation of the work. The Pathetique was completed in August 1893. Between then and his death in November, he wrote the Piano Concerto No. 3.
The Pathetique was just the last piece premiered in his lifetime.
@@philipconnelly1505 "Incorrect" It's not really a piano concerto it was first supposed to be a symphony but then he reworked it as a one-movement Allegro brillante for piano and orchestra. It was published as opus 75 and only then, only after, did the publisher, not the composer, call it his 3rd piano concerto.
@fmyoung Still, the Pathetique wasn't the last thing he wrote. Let's not Romantize and mythologize it. Remember also that there is NO evidence that Tchaikovsky committed suicide. Few people would speak of the Sixth in the way they do had he written a seventh, eighth, ninth...
I've nothing against the piece, it's great, but it's not the "suicide note" that people make it out to be.
@@philipconnelly1505 I know I didn't say he took his life
I cried at the end scene of the film The Music lovers film about Tchaikovsky by Ken Russell
Danke
15:34 amazing...
Gorgeous.
This rendition of the march is positively terrifying. Reminds me of the mechanized and devious cheerfulness of Prokofiev's later symphonies.
1:56 - 3:09 is my practice spot💪🏻
If you here because you chose an excerpt recording drop a like on this comment 🗣️🔥🥶
Lo más conmovedor de esta joya sinfónica del genial maestro ruso es el prolongado silencio con que se cierra la obra
Sin duda
I have the Mravinsky, it is marvellous! My other favourite (2nd) Is Levine & CSO. Great, it’s a shame about his antics!
can someone tell me when the second theme starts in the frist movement?
