Tchaikovsky was undoubtedly a subtle psychologist in music.
A symphony that deserves far more appreciation, led by a conductor who deserves far more appreciation.
Hear hear to both.
You do understand that the conductor is the one person that no one in the orchestra is looking at, in ANY concert? He/She/They/Them/Unicorn may as well not be there. All they do is take credit for the entire show that they contributed nothing to...
@@artinheaven4572 if you truly mean that, you don't understand anything at all about any of this
@@thingiezz Huh? Oh sorry, I didn't see you there. I presume you were waving a Baton about. Not the best way to get noticed...
@@artinheaven4572 The Conductors real job is during the rehearsals. I have noticed what you're saying, but I believe the musicians are really listening to the other musicians and just occasionally glancing at the conductor. I also believe the camera-person is looking at the conductor instead of the viewfinder to line up his next shot.
Music lovers have been under the impression that Tchaikovsky wrote three symphonies and for some odd reason, numbered them 4,5 and 6. The first three have come out of obscurity and need to be programmed more often. They are youthful, exhuberant and finely crafted. Bravo Maestro Jarvi.
A wonderful but woefully underrated Tchaikovsky symphony.
Once my favourite piece
could not agree more, Bob, had the pleasure of playing viola in an orchestra where it was programmed.
I keep coming back to it
Because most people don,t know about it or care for the arrangement. What it needs to stimulate interest is the ending needs to be loud and powerful so that the audience may be motivated to give it a standing ovation and really like it!!!!!
Together With 5th and 6th symphonies, the most beautiful Works by Tchaikovsky
This symphony is such a gem.
At 67 years old and have heard symphony 4, 5, and 6 many times over the last 60 years this is the first time hearing symphony#1 from start to finish. Will hear it again because Tchaikovsky is my favorite composer. I may learn to love it as I did Beethoven's 6th.
Very similar path,
@@charlesyoung8298 At 69, yes, I too still try to expose myself to unfamiliar works. I am very thankful for my hearing and the ability to change my audio settings to enhance my ageing ears. This piece has some engaging passages.
This is a glorious symphony. I love Tchaikovsky's music.
28:09 The clarinets in their lowest register. What a lovely sound they produce.
I wish there was less coughing but then again it is a winter symphony, a very beautiful one I haven't heard before despite loving Tchaikovsky to bits
Very fine performance of an underrated symphony deserving of a standing ovation !!!!!
IN my modst opinion, this is one of the best symphonies of Tchaikovski.
I respect yours.... but ALL the symponies are wonderful. each one with its time and style. I cannot compare them. I LOVE ALL OF THEM
The first movement is… full of winter’s freezing air, flowing cold wind, a glowing sunlight through the foggy horizon, beautiful absolutely! Likewise the intense beauty of the second movement, the growing emotional tension in the finale takes me every time. Maestro Järvi has prepared a delightful performance that is following sincerely the markings within the score and the recording is impeccable! Thanks a lot!
I love Tchaikovsky,genius
Tchaikovsky was always a superb composer, even though with his rare and unknown works such as his very unknowm adagios for horns or allegros for wind quintets, that only a tchaikovsky music lover knows.
Согласна с вами)) волторна не самый певчий инструмент... Но гений Чайковского умудрился раскрыть тайны этого инструмента
What a magnificent performance.
It couldn't be more beautiful that second movement!!!
True. Symphony no 7 allegretto comes close
Such a wonderful orchestra. They have become my go-to on UA-cam. Bravo Maestro Jarvi!
the second movement is just amazing!
Totally agreed! That movement is the true jewel of this magnificent symphony!!!!
Agreed, and within that jewel, the ending of the movement, from 22:40, is simply brilliant onwards.
It's Freddie basically. "Look up to the skies and see
I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy..."
@@rushana1956 You just reminded me this rendtion of bohemian rhapsody..:) ua-cam.com/video/xUVysL9PbzM/v-deo.html
Indeed. The heavens open up throughout every note. Simply divine!
Sooo wundervoll. Ich liebe Orchestermusik!
UND DIESE CELLOSOLI!!!
The head shake when someone started clapping after the 1st movement is classic!
Classically stupid
If you don't know the piece and are listening to it for the first time, it has happened to me.
@@jamesmatthews905 Normally one would get a program so you know when to clap. Also watching the conductor will tell you when to clap. Finally, waiting for someone else to clap is a way to know when to clap.
The final is simply beautiful
20:05 - 21:20 this part. I was in the bus when I heard this for the first time. During this part I didn't know what to do. My eyes were wide open, I was smiling and I had weird facial expressions. It's like the bus couldn't contain me. I haven't had any feeling like this before. I wanted to jump out of the bus and fly. Gosh that was a beautiful moment of my life
Flawless performance of this relatively seldom performed symphony by Tchaikovsky in appropriate tempo and without superfluous rubato. Simply beautiful!
I. Allegro tranquillo ∙ 00:23
II. Adagio cantabile ma non tanto ∙ 12:09
III. Scherzo. Allegro scherzando giocoso ∙ 23:07
IV. Finale. Andante lugubre - Allegro moderato - Allegro maestoso - Andante lugubre - Allegro vivo ∙ 31:00

Thank you so much!
감사합니다❤️
ottima orchestra.....con bravo direttore....che vogliamo di più....niente....
A dream of mine is to listen to this symphony while sauntering in snow. Being in a country where it NEVER snows, I have seen this image fulfilled more than once in my dreams. I really envy those who experience snow at least once a year. This symphony needs snow to be felt to the utmost
I'd love to walk around Saint Petersburg in winter while listening to his symphonies. It would be the ultimate way of experiencing them since he spent a lot of time there.
Personally, I'd prefer to listen to Tchaikovsky on a Carribean beach, under palm trees and 80 degrees.
Snow and cold sucks and you fail to realize how blessed you are not having to deal with it. I'd be curious to know your Winter sentiments after a major blizzard when the electrical power is lost for about three days and the ensuing misery stretches the minutes into hours.
Not pleasant regardless of how romantic this music may make it seem.
Sir Vincent - The same sort of argument can be made against sunny or tropical weather, with hurricanes, tornados, flooding, etc.
@@sirvincent7263 I personally enjoyed the four days we were stuck without power one February a few years ago. Oddly calming when you have no lights to turn on in the house. But that’s just my personal opinion. Snow is beautiful. You’ll never change my mind. And I enjoy shovelling.
I love how these musicians of this orchestra get into the music both emotionally and physically. They really seem to be enjoying this wonderful early work by Tchaikovsky, especially the absolutely exhilarating last movement. I'm glad this symphony is finally getting the recognition it deserves. Audiences love it.☺♥

Очень хорошее исполнение. Одна из моих любимых симфоний, совершенных по композиции.
A wonderful performance of one of my favorite symphonies. The HR are a splendid orchestra, and Jarvi never fails to deliver. The video production is top-notch, I feel privileged to have access to such riches on UA-cam. It seems to me that the symphony and symphony orchestra are the pinnacle achievements of Western culture. A hundred or so highly skilled and musical people working together in perfect harmony. It never fails to lift me up.
Re the pinnacle: yes, indeed! No question about it. I'm thinking radio, TV and recording put a sad end to it.
29:59
Bravo! I like how the violinists rock and sway back and forth as they play, they really get into their music. The entire orchestra is drawn into this music both emotionally and physically. This symphony is by far my favorite piece of classical music. It's high time this symphony gets the credit it has long deserved. It's very hard to keep that bow tie straight with a violin tucked under your chin.
Ok
Wunderbare Leistung, Ich weiß warum nicht diese Tschaikowsky Symphonie ist so Unterschätzt denn es ist so schön?!
I absolutely agree with you. Divine music 🎵
Sie haben recht! Diese Symphonie ist Wunder schön, ich denne immer an Dr Zhivago, wenn ich sie höre❤️
Who cares what "the romantic era's aesthetics" think or appreciate. We are the listeners and the last word is to the public which is the one to decide. All the composer's symphonies in each self is a gem. Here one can hear the incoming snow storm in the first movement, then it can remind us of the fantastic shot by David Lean in Doctor Jivago when we discover the abandoned Datcha under the snow with the crystal chandeliers clinking with the light breeze. With the 3rd movement we are on a sledge going full speed in the forest with the snow flakes splashing all around under the horses hoofs, suddenly we stop our run.The finale brings us to some kind of meditation watching the nature around us. Is life worth living it? And off we resume our trip for an unknown destination... ...Let's just listen, close our eyes and appreciate the genius work who composed such a masterpiece on a piano! How can you have the orchestration and its different tonalities in your head at the same time, this always baffles me.....
All my life I wrestled with why many of us work hard at reading music and studying harmony theory while it just flows from some others to the written score and even to their fingers. I have come to believe that it’s because of the differences in our brain construction. I am settled on that fact, but it will remain the secret of the Creator why.
@@alstewart9212 Whatever means they employed, prolific composers were known write every single day. Through this habit I presume they slowly developed the grit needed to continue the demanding task of composing. And maybe it's the discipline they so incorporated into their lives that helped them persevere and take on the monumental task of writing lengthy music.
What a gorgeous rendition of this beautiful symphony!
Great composer! Technic and sensibility
What a treat it is to see and hear this glorious early symphony by Tchaikovsky. Writing later in life, the composer admitted its flaws but still thought it fundamentally better than many of his later works. It caused poor old Pyotr Ilyich a great deal of agony to complete it between 1866-68. There were two more revisions; this is the final version from 1882.
Paavo Jarvi and the Frankfurt orchestra are impressive here and those of you who may be listening for the first time might wonder why this symphony is so rarely performed, so sure of foot and serious is Jarvi's leadership. And the players do well to convey that this is not just another routine performance of a Tchaikovsky symphony.
If Jarvi has it in mind to do a complete Tchaikovsky cycle, then why not now, when he has these magnificent forces at his disposal? And before he heads off to HK...
Bravi, tutti...!
Thank you for the insights. What were the "flaws"?
@@robertgift I haven't yet discovered them either :)
@@robertgift He probably got rid of them in the revisions.
Definitely one of the better readings of this, Jarvi was brilliant. These skilled players are so precise. It was pure energy.
It's perfect just the way it is.
Performance of the highest level. careful phrasing to: 1) Orientation of repetitions (to "more" when you need to step up, "less" when they serve to lower the tension) 2) the sense of proposal and answer3) Order of priority: who has to emerge and who should "accompany "4) absolutely highest order Woodwind: flute, oboe, clarinet and bassoon" participate and phrasing with a rare attention.
Tchaikovsky wasn't the best judge of his own work! I really love this symphony - a candidate for the greatest first symphony ever written. The title 'Winter Daydreams' aptly sums up this atmospheric piece - best heard in front of a roaring fire on a day when the snow is falling outside. I may try this sometime!
Totally agree! But how about Brahms first symphony? I think it also deserves the title of one of the best first symphonies.
@@khalilmutallibov Or Mahler's!
@@jamesmatthews905 yeah of course, probably it's the greatest!
Bravo! What a fantastic performance! Kudos to the conductor and the orchestra!
For the last 50 years, I've listened to this work on the first snowfall of the year - standing at the window watching the world becoming transformed. I still recall my amazement as I stood there in my college dorm room. I still tend to listen to the performance by The Boston Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Michael Tilson-Thomas. This is a truly outstanding recording, and when it was released in 1971 introduced the work to me and to millions of others. Perhaps my preference for it has something to do with what Konrad Lorenz labeled "imprinting".
Sounds utterly magnificent.
LOL I just do, snow is falling today here in Holland
Thank you so much for the idea
Now the next step would be to recognize the structure that the composer designed in it).
@@JP-ku5hw Thanks for your comment, although I'm not sure what you mean by "structure", since I'm not a musicologist. But I am an avid listener, and I do like to try to recognize sonata forms (exposition, development, and recapitulation) and themes that run through particular works.
Tchaikovsky is greatest composer of all the times . Of course after Beethoven .Composer of Symphony specially. I love him...From Iran...
Spasibo:)
The second part of the symphony - “Gloomy land, foggy land” (It can be assumed that it reflected the impressions of the severe beauty of the Russian north, which were remembered by Tchaikovsky after a trip to Lake Ladoga.) - It is noteworthy for the extraordinary breadth of melodic breathing, which has not weakened throughout its long enough sounding. This theme, which is developing smoothly and gradually gaining breath, belongs to the finest examples of Tchaikovsky’s lyric-song melody. Separate, as if encrusted in a melodic line, revolutions of a national character set off its typically Russian appearance.
For long time only the 4th, 5th, and 6th symphonies of Tchaikovsky were widely known. Now that the first three are also up and about, they have a youthfulness that reflect the composer's early period. Very Russian, very happy, and affirming. I love the first three symphonies better than the last three.
me too with the exception of his fifth symphony
A bit of trivia: in the early '60's a rock & roll group stole the main theme of the finale of Tchaikovsky's 5th. Wow, was I amazed when I heard the symphony and thought maybe Tchaikovsky stole it from that song
(I was a kid.) Lol.
can you name the pop song?
I Come of Age, CA. 1961, artists unknown.
Per certi versi ancor più bella delle sinfonie successive... Bellissima esecuzione.
Gréât Tshaikowskiy !!!! BRAVI !!!!!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️💐💐💐
Esta Sinfonia,"chica pero grande",es de una belleza de sentimientos y sonidos poderosisima.El II mov (12,05),me emociona,tocando las fibras mas intimas de mi Ser.Y la interpretacio'n,a mi gusto,es una de las mejores,fluida y sentimental.-
Bro the audience clapping in between movements is so funny and the conductor's face lmao
This is not a great symphony but it is a marvellous one! For those who may not know, Tchaikovsky came very late to music, only beginning when he was 21 years old. He was a founder professor at the Moscow Conservatory. He was to master symphonic form and go on to write one of the greatest symphonies ever, never having studied in Germany. His genius was astounding. Here, Paavo Jarvi brings out the best in an uneven but excellent work, sadly too little performed today. It shows all the evidence of what Tchaikovsky was to bring to music and it's well worth hearing in the concert platform. Thank you so much for allowing us to hear it here :)
Not studied "in" Germany, but grew up on Bach, Mozart and Beethoven. From my reading, he was among the very first cosmopolitan Russian composers. "The Might Five", did not consider him 'Russian enough',
why do you think it is not a great syphony?
take no notice Tea. It is a great symphony. Those who don't appreciate must put down for some reason.
@@normstrong1 Perhaps it isn't great - just marvellous. I understand "marvellous" to be better than "great" but if some people want to feel aggrieved they will do so, won't they?
Pathetic really. Two people could be bothered to read only the first line of ComposerinUK's comment and it has given them the opportunity to be conflictive and make utter idiots of themselves.
Applause.
I don't see (or hear) the unevenness, if you care to explain...
في عز الصيف نشعر ببرودة الشتاء عن طريق السمع تلك احد رسائل و ابداعات تشايكوفسكي و قوة تصوير لديه
This is my favourite work from him, hands down. I don't know why it isn't as well known as his later works, because as far as I'm concerned it is brilliant. Especially the second movement with the part beginning ca. 19:40 . Theres so much emotion in there...
+Freeman It has too many melodic repetitions - typical for young composers - so it doesn't have sufficient complexity to be classified as a "masterpiece" by the romantic era's aesthetics.
+Iloerk Meh. Musical taste is subjective, so people can classify it as a masterpiece if they want as far as I'm concerned.
+Iloerk - "It has too many melodic repetitions" are you kidding?! No other Tchaikovsky Symphony has so many melodic repetitions as his 6th "Pathetic" Symphony!! Why is that one considered a masterpiece? And I don't see many melodic repetitions here like in his later works. In this 1st symphony it's harder to preview what's coming on because it is indeed complex.
True, 1st symphonies are always like that. Intersting though to hear it.
Yes!! The 2nd movement of this 1st symphony is one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever created. The beginning/end theme is just so sad and haunting, the main melody with oboe (then horns) is melancholic but so redeeming and lovely and powerful.
Although I think the 4th symphony is my favorite, all his symphonies are amazing in my opinion. The 6th one is hard for me to listen to because I burst into tears during the first and last movements 😭
Ai critici che la tacciano di essere disomogenea ed immatura non so cosa ribattere... Per me è un capolavoro di freschezza, originalità e coerenza formale
c'est une magnifique symphonie ,j'adore
Great work. One of most beautiful 2nd movements
Спасибо за запись. Какое чудо.
красавцы. без комментариев, это просто гениально
Una hermosa sinfonía. Y una muy buena interpretación
Masterpiece !!!!
This was the first successful symphony ever to be written by a composer who hadn't studied in Germany. And what a triumph it is! People will say that there is much here that foreshadows the greater music to come and, to some extent, that may be true. But, taken on its own merits, it's still a thoroughly enjoyable piece with much to offer; the gossamer opening, the beautiful melody in the second movement and the fun to be had in the 3rd. The Finale too is a triumph. 'Bombastic!', some will claim, But isn't it a bombast we can all enjoy once in a while? Paavo Jarvo conducts this orchestra with true mastery and a sense of fun - just see how he holds the repetition of the opening motif in the Finale; a sort of mock solemnity. Thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish and Tchaikovsky's difficult labour pains entirely justified in the end result. Marvellous!
Hmmm . I have considered Haydn and Mozart to be successful. :-]
yes, its full of great subtlety that only reveals itself after many hearings. Not a student work, but one honed to perfection over more than a decade.
Marvellous, sure! However we shouldn't forget Berlioz. (Even if we consider Haydn, Mozart and Schubert being South-German composers).
02:43 the most high responsibility section for clarinet in classical music - don't screw it up or your career is over :-)
Zzzzzzzzz... deliciosos sueños de invierno, que ❤️🩹 mejor que con ésta sublime música del genial Tchaikovsky.a soñar se ha dicho amen.

챠이콥스키 교향곡1번의 명반에 손꼽히는 명연주!!
There is no reason this symphony is less famous than his number six. Only wish Maestro Jarvi could conduct from memory. That would mean the music is in your heart, not merely on paper.
It may be relatively unfamiliar to him, who knows? Conductors who appear to have memorized every note of every piece are often winging it. I think this is a decision for the conductor. We don't expect the musicians to have it all committed to memory, after all. It bears no relation to the heart, it's a matter of memory. Few conductors would direct the Ring cycle from memory!
Grande sublime bravissimo compositore
All the necessary information is in the first few seconds of the video itself. What is really frustrating is when there is no information at all anywhere and the composition is an unknown or obscure piece.
12:09 Qui Tchaikovskij è a dir poco magico
Wonderful execution for a masterpiece
Большое пасбо за прекрасное исполнение и отличное качество видео!
...and why the hell isnt this played more often....bravo!!!!!
4:37 Later it was used in "Flower Waltz" from Nutcracker.
So beautiful!
16:43 AMAZING!!!!
Tchaikovsky symphony 1 was not highly regarded at his time and got criticised quite intensely. It was surprising to me because it doesn’t sound that bad and got some really nice melodies throughout.
Hmm strange, I read that it was critically acclaimed. Tchaikovsky's melodies never dissapoint. He really understood music and perception of melody.
@@chainuser1774 I was mostly referring to Anton Rubinstein calling his Tchaikovsky's first draft dreadful. Tchaikovsky revised substantially afterwards. My knowledge from the book Tchaikovsky The Man Revealed by John Suchet.
20:00 - 21:25 What a banger
Am I alone in finding the melody which begins at 26:14 in the scherzo utterly haunting?
Certainly not !
Among Tchaikovsky's finest waltzes - presaging many of those in his ballets.
Ich finde, sie ist einfach eine Seligkeits-Musik zum Schwelgen, natürlich nicht ohne Spannungsmomente im Verlauf.
Habe diese Sinfonie früher mal mitgespielt (als Laie) und habe auch dabei diese Passage als besonders lieblich empfunden - wie das Kreisen auf einem zugefrorenen See.
So unterschiedlich sind die Empfindungen.😃
Habe ich vor über 30 Jahren im Studentenorchester mitgespielt...🎻🥰
Magnifique interprétation!
Thank you for not putting ads in the video
Yes, this is the first Russian symphony written by Russian who was taught by Russians.
What about Rimski-Korsakov ??
Una sinfonia veramente bellissima.
in 30:30 schaltet die Regie viel zu spät auf den Cellisten, wenn er schon längst nicht mehr macht! Herrliche Stelle :-D Und eine sehr gute Aufnahme, die ich diesen Winter immer wieder höre.
The theme introduced by flutes and bassoons at the start is so nostalgic
First flute 💯👌
Fehlerlose Leistung dieser relativ selten aufgeführten Sinfonie von Tschaikowsky im angemessenen Tempo und ohne überflüssige Agogik. Einfach wunderschön!
🤣😂
2° movement is beautiful. Reminds me The Nutcracker a little.
The whole piece is very beautiful
