I watched this video probably 50 times when I was a teenager. Thanks so much for the upload!
You are quite welcome. Boulez was a most fascinating (and often divisive) musician. There's a link in the description if you want to purchase the video. I found it in some shop in Greenwich Village around 2006.
The Berg Three Pieces was one of Boulez' favorite works, one he began performing around 1960. He loved to take this densely complicated work and get orchestras to play it with his trademark order and precision.
Why Berg is the only one of the 2nd Vienna School I I really like. What a sound, what expression and emotion. Complex without being dry and frigid.
Funny enough, he's the only one I don't like!
This man was a true genius
Wonderful to watch Pierre rehearse Berg w/ VPO. The "Three Pieces", op. 6 are Berg's big homage to Mahler, especially the MARCH. At 28:46, there's the Mahler 6th/ 3rd Movement violin passage (right before the E Major in Mahler), and a Mahler "mini-Hammer" at 30:15. Totally nuts.
Treasure!
We are a small but an extraordinarily perceptive group of listeners, musicians who ‘get’ this. Thanks for this experience.
Anyone who knows the entire program of the concert for which this rehearsal was made? ok, Berg op6 + Boulez Notations and what was the rest of the program?
he coupled the 5th with Haydn 104.
49:31 na, wenn des nix war ! 😂
No women at all in 1998 😮
Yes, it's quite surprising to us a quarter-century later, but even the Berlin Philharmonic only allowed women to be offered auditions in 1982. Hell, Switzerland didn't even allow women to *vote* until *1971* - so this sort of European "progressive consensus" is par for the course in that era, and radical change is long overdue. Being an understandably long-time cynic, I imagine that one of the unspoken reasons why we see so many women in orchestras now is because they are likely being paid less.
SCHLACHTE FRAGE.💩
i believe the VPO might have had a single female at this point but you don't really see her face. this would be Anna Lelkes, the harpist. the video around 38:06 shows the hands of a harpist which look decidedly feminine. she'd been an adjunct since 1974 and was majority voted in (along generational lines) in 1998. as of 2019 they have 15 female members. not sure how many more in the last 5 years.
Extraordinaire témoignage artistique ! Voir comment Boulez choisi de travailler tel ou tel section, et de quel façon est très instructif, notamment son attention au rythme et à l'équilibre entre les instruments.
Le niveau de l'orchestre est remarquable !
Oui en effet. Boulez était un artiste singulier, mais il faut ce genre de compétences pour atteindre ce niveau de création musicale. Merci pour le commentaire. Thanks Google Translate!
Thank you, this is fascinating!
You're quite welcome, and I'm glad you enjoyed it. More stuff to come!
13:08 sick...
Just a small correction to the english translation with regards to the names of the notes.
Around 13:10 he doesn't say "fes", which would be f flat, but rather "fis" which is f sharp.
Again around 14:09 he says "gis" which is g sharp and not g flat. G flat would be ges.
And then around 20:28: he says "cis" and "fis" which again are c sharp and f sharp, respectively. C flat would be ces.
Thank you. The original subtitle text was used as found in the original file. I have made corrections.
BOULEZ = GENIUS!!!
Boulez, the great!
Wow
31:18
Wie peinlich, was die Trompetengruppe da abliefert! Die Stellen sind überhaupt nicht vorbereitet und sie schaffen es nicht ab 21:26 auch nur ein einziges mal zusammen einzusetzen.
Absolut !!!
Die Trompeten sind durchweg der Horror. Geht schon bei ca. 13:00 los. Von irgendeiner Blaskapelle abgeworben ?? 😅
Ich habe früher Geige als Laienmusiker in Laienorchestern gespielt. Ich habe niemals an eine Musikkarriere gedacht, denn ich war tiefst überzeugt, nicht gut genug zu sein. Deshalb habe ich eine technische Karriere gemacht und nur noch aus Spaß gespielt.
Nicht vorbereitete Stellen kamen häufig vor, bei vielen Musikern, aus irgendwelchen Gründen: Keine Zeit zu Üben, Klausuren am nächsten Tag, musste spät abends arbeiten, oder was auch immer...
Als Nicht-Profimusiker hätte ich aber nie gedacht, dies würde auch unter Profimusikern aus Prestige-Orchestern vorkommen!
Aber um fair zu sein: Ich schätze mal, man habe den Burschen in der letzten Minute aus Not geholt, weil die 3. Trompete krank sei, und er solle ihn ersetzen, und in einer Stunde sei die Probe avec le chef Pierre Boulez!
Dies soll häufiger vorkommen, als man denkt! Herr Kapellmeister Christian Thielemann - er nennt sich selbst so, denn er mag den Namen "Dirigent" nicht sehr - erzählte in einem Vortrag, dass Musiker fürs Konzert oder gar für die Oper am gleichen Abend geholt werden, um Werke vom Blatt zu spielen, die sie nie zuvor geprobt haben! So nach dem Motto "Hol dir eine CD und frage einen Kollegen, wie die Stellen zu spielen sind!".
Orchester haben sowieso immer weniger Zeit, zum Proben! Maestro Riccardo Muti hat sich mehrmals drüber beschwert...
Very Interesting video !
