- a brief analysis of mahler's adagietto from his 5th symphony, a love letter to his beloved alma. his use of suspensions and appoggiaturas throughout the piece is particularly noteworthy.
recording(karajan): • Mahler: Adagietto Sym...
i love how mahler wrote this for alma, and then you have a few symphonies later where he's writing about his heart condition (inevitable death) his child dying and then alma cheating on him. NICE!
such is life i suppose 😅
I think Mahler's 9th is the best example of how pain trascends into music.
The good news is: he didn’t write it for Alma. It’s a myth. And she served him right for cheating. Their marriage was stifling and horrible.
Mahler was not the victim there
@@fredericchopin7332you know him in person?
beautiful analysis

This movement always brings tears to my eyes in the very first bars... amazing analysis! I would love to see more Mahler analysis here since he's my favorite composer but everything's great :))
i might consider!
I discovered Mahler thanks to this movement alone, which is sad and at the same time feels like "falling in love"; but is tragic, and then there is me imagining the universe or a spinning galaxy, it's curious that is probably his most famous movement and without involving the military percussion and winds, which makes his symphonies MORE EPIC for my taste (I'd say this in a good sense, I love that feeling), it's probably the moment in a Mahler sympohny I return the most, even though I love each one of them.
I know absolutely nothing about music but I still love your channel because it’s a great way to find more classical music
Thank you! That's exactly what I aim to do as well
Hello from Kansas City, Missouri Skylar. Outstanding analysis of one of the most Breathtakingly Beautiful pieces of music ever written, Mahler's Adagietto from his 5th Symphony. I'm so glad I discovered your UA-cam Channel. It's like a Masterclass in Music Composition. Thanks.
Rock Chalk
i love this channel so much omfg
Sincere thanks for analysis... helps to demystify how to express such deep feelings...
Man, u are the only person i saw who make those analysis and i learned so much just from one video. I have a question, where can i find exercises to be sure that i make analysis correct? Because i just take screens from your videos, i erase notation without looking and then i check if it`s correct. Thank you
thanks for the comment! you should get a teacher to guide you along, as well as learning basic harmony and counterpoint. unfortunately not a lot of proper materials online to help you get there by yourself
@@skylarlimex ok, maybe having teacher is not that bad and searching online a lot will help me to master composition, for now i just watch your videos and wait for more.
these videos are really good for helping me compose, thank you 🙏🏼
my pleasure!
Please do the entire movement if possible. This is amazing!!
This is achingly beautiful.
Your channel is amazing thank you
Great analysis, thanks for sharing !
When I hear this one I always see snow coming down.
Прекрасная музыка. Прекрасный анализ.
Beautiful
I'm crying.
Very well done!!
great analysis! i hope you will do mahler 3 (final movement) in the future :D
Great video BTW!
Ви робите чудову справу, на жаль, задоволення від неї доступно небагатьом. Дякую!
Please please please do Ravel’s G Major Concerto Adagio Assai! I recommend Zimerman/Boulez.
i have indeed but maybe i'll do another one
love your videos!
was hoping you could maybe explain your system for naming chords because there is a bunch here that I'm not following.
For example at 00:34, in the second bar, first chord you've written in this bar is V7/V which to my understanding is a C7/G, but in the music there is a B natural which contrasts with that.
Another example would be in the same page (00:34), chord number 2 in first bar is written as iidim43/V but to me the notes look like a simple Fm6/Ab.
Would be cool for you to explain all these charts because I'm sure there's something I'm missing.
:)
/V simply means of the dominant key - since we're in F major this means C major - so V7/V is the dominant 7 chord of c major, g dominant 7 and ii half dim43 of c major is d half diminished, D F Ab C.
@@skylarlimex Okay that makes a lot more sense, so what does the "43" refer to in this instance of the half dim chord? (apologies for all the questions)
@@stuartmoir1372 i have a video on how i notate my harmony
❤
Always thought that Mahler was for poseurs who basically hated music
But this is up there with the Greats
I wanna see analysis about rachmaninoff's etude tableaux op.39 no.1 someday
Really? That seems a bit random
One of the most beautiful parts of any symphony. If someone know a part that can match this one please tell me.
In my opinion, the only parts of other symphonies that can match the Adagietto are the Adagio from Mahler's 9th Symphony and the Adagio from Rachmaninoff's 2nd Symphony
And the slow movement of Mahler’s 4th!
The Intermezzo from Elgar's Crown of India Suite. This is what tenderness sounds like. Also the Adagio from Beethoven's ninth symphony.
Adagio from Mozart's 23rd Piano Concerto.
Try the slow movements from the 4th and 6th symphonies (also by Mahler). They're a bit longer and structurally more complex, but just as beautiful IMO.
Please analyze Godowsky's piano works.
👍
This passage always reminds me of my college days.
You know, my Alma Mahler.
Don’t forget to tip the waitress.
It seems to me like Lolita's(The Movie) "Love's Theme". 🤯
Think "Death in Venice" by Visconti.
Love these anylysis videos. Will you analyze Rachmaninoff by any chance?
indeed i have but i do have a few other pieces in mind
Can you do a Schubert piece?
i definitely will! one of my favourite composers
Yes, please! I discovered D.343 in the library last week: he wrote that as his mother died when he was 19 I learnt.
any possibility of notating a debussy piece? maybe girl with the flaxen hair?
good idea!
Scriabin analysis (one of the later works)?
which one?
@@skylarlimex black mass??
Can someone explain why at 0:51 its a I6? New need help
if you're referring to the first chord, it's F major in first inversion hence I6
What very few people seem to know though is that Arnold Schwarzenegger is his grandson.
No, he isn't.
Yeah and Justin Bieber is his great granddaughter
@@joeyblogsy That's common knowledge though..
HWHAT IS THE NAME OF THIS PIECE?!!?
very tristan and isolde...
This might be a silly critique but could you please make your video titles start with capital letters? It hurts my soul.
Sorry - too sickly for me.
