Thank you so much
Thanks for adding these. If you place this text in the description (you'll also need to start with a 0:00 section), UA-cam will add chapters to the timeline, making it even easier to navigate between movements.
je m'en fiche avec une manière presque vive, avec une grande joie modéré 25:54
Shout out to the lady killing it on the ondes martinot
I will never forget hearing this LIVE for the first time when I was 17 years old. It was 1973 and was the LA Phil Premiere performance of it under the baton of the young conductor, Michael Tilson Thomas. It featured Messiaen's historic colleague, Yvonne Loriod on Ondes Martenot. A landmark work and a landmark memory of all memories of all concerts which I have attended in my lifetime. A great performance here as well by The LA Phil
Yvonne was his wife, and she played piano. You're probably thinking of Jeanne Loriod, Yvonne's sister.
@@benjaminopie Actually they both played the piece at some point, both the piano part as well as the ondes martenot part, never together though as far as I recall.
In Fact, It s not the LA Phil, is his Conductor, but is the Simon Bolivar Youth Orchestra of Venezuela.
@@joseparedes380 Thank you for the correction on the Orchestra featured. I was relating a story not really about Dudamel but about Michael Tilson Thomas and my RELATIONSHIP to the Los Angeles PREMIERE of The Turangalila Symphony while living in Los Angeles as a 17 year old....with The Los Angeles Philharmonic. I hope you can appreciate that
I just learned that Turanga Leela from Futurama is named after this piece lol
Me too apparently!
Futurama brought me here
I have never thought of pressing the "like" button on a performance by Dudamel and Wang, as I dislike star musicians and showy playing. But this time I wished I could press it more than once. All my preconceived ideas and prejudice have been shattered by the sheer beauty of music making. Majestic, inspired performance of Messiaen's masterpiece. Full of rhythm and color. Excellent!
Lang Lang and Horowitz are the only only two performers that are showy, as far as I care. They'd never even consider such a piece because they can't show off with it. Not that kind of music.
Yuja is my idol but I had no idea she played Turangalila!!! this has made me love her even more.
You and I both
...and knowing Dudamel conducts this piece makes me love him even more!
Yawn.........Standard repertoire
Me neither! Knowing Yuja she was probably sight reading it on the night! 😁
Same here. The girl is simply genious-crazy.
I've heard contemporary composers' works on piano, and that was okay. But hearing something of this grandeur in an orchestra is magnificent! Thank you for your music.
this is not yet contemporary music! Messiaen developed his style later. Listen to Chronochromie - there you have the most modern style Messiaen could achieve!
I have to give credit to whoever filmed and edited this magnificent concert. All the close-ups of the individual instruments and the perfectly timed editing really adds to the experience of watching the performance. Nice work!
I am no pianist but this is a hellishly difficult piano part I reckon and not a single drop of sweat on Yuju's forhead.....just amazing...
Questa composizione è un capolavoro assoluto un festival sonoro di piano, fiati, archi e percussioni di rara bellezza e perfettamente orchestrato dal grande Direttore Dudamel con una fenomenale interpretazione di Yuja Wang
this is a dense piece. is great to be able to hear it in such high quality. amazing job!
If I could recommend listening live to any large orchestral work it would be this one, the contrasting textures become almost three-dimensional
Tears of joy I have when it comes to "Joie du Sang des Étoiles"!
The turangalila ... what a masterpiece. Yuja is so charismatic and beautiful as always. Video direction on this is just excellent, too, so intense. Burst out laughing at 0:45 though
Once again, the combination of Yuja Wang and Gustavo Dudamel is absolutely electrifying. To answer an earlier question about the "odd keyboard instrument" it's called an ondes Martinot, and it provides an eerie electronic sound sometimes used on the soundtrack of scary movies. It uses 4 loudspeakers, which are mounted on the edge of the stage. It's a rare instrument, and I don't know if anyone has resumed manufacturing them.
Radiohead has played a role in bringing the ondes Martinot to a larger audience. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ondes_Martenot ua-cam.com/video/Zp4mBmsV6Xk/v-deo.html
Ondes Martenot was one of the first (semi-)electronic instrument, presented first in 1928, five months after the other electronic instrument was first introduced, the more widely known theremin.
@@voiceover2191 I was going to say…. Here on Halloween the O.M. is a most appropriate instrument. Actually the theremin and the OM produce pretty similar sounds.
@@alanwerner8563 Indeed, especially in the 50's the theremin was the instrument of choice of many B-movie horror and scifi movies (The Day the Earth Stood Still comes to mind, the original of course). So yes, very much appropriate on Halloween ;)
At one time the only place in North America where you could study the Ondes Martinot was the Quebec Conservatory of Music in Montreal, which had the same curriculum as the Paris Conservatory, where the Ondes was a recognized instrument.
I almost teared up when Gustavo started handing out flowers to the orchestra at the end😭
In my very humble opinion... Nothing beats classical music. Nothing. The sheer scope of it... the respect, the occasion... the incredible talent of all involved... The audience reactions always bring a tear... SUU PERB...
I like classical music too but for me jazz is better, there is even more the relationship between the audience that you seem to enjoy, I recommend you to see live jazz video.
They are both great art forms. No need to claim one as better than the other. Just listen and enjoy!
+@AnthonyDonnellyTT it's all about the personal likings. The classical music does the work, but not matches at all in the whole thing, it lacks of spontaneity, the other music has a huge spontaneity: salsa, wawanco, disco music, baladas, and a huge count of etc.
@@romeoperrin7524 Jazz is like the music of Debussy, in that it delights, fascinates, amuses, stimulates, entertains, and that's it. I haven't heard any jazz music that I felt had an ennobling effect on me, like the greatest classical music does. The genius of classical composers like Handel, Beethoven and Wagner lies in the fact that they often created the most powerful effects, with the simplest of means.
@@felixnauta You really can't generalize and stereotype classical music like that, since there are many types of classical music. The music of Bach is very different from the music of Debussy, for example; even though they were both "classical" composers, although writing in very different styles from each other.
Hard for me to imagine a better performance & recording of this work, (surely one of the most astonishing pieces of the 20th C,) and I've heard quite a few, including a live performance by the CBSO. Although I'm not usually a fan of ultra-fast video editing, here it works brilliantly, giving clarity to every strand of the fabric of this unique score. It also highlights the monumental piano part, which I had under-appreciated. Also, the ondes comes across clearly. And one other feature, easily overlooked: the audience - totally respectful, with no loud coughing in the quieter parts.
Yes, in terms of impact, aural and visual, this would take some beating. And now, while I'm still intoxicated, I must search out more of the stunning Yuja Wang.
You might also appreciate Esa-Pekka Salonen 's Turangalila. Regards, ua-cam.com/video/nDTEcpMo1k0/v-deo.html
Felt compelled to listen to the applause in its entirety
Those Venezuelan kids grow up so fast! 🙂 Really, really, spiffy performance, my one minor quibble being the slinky strings in mvt. 5, which I'd want a bit more detached. The two soloists were amazing, as are all the first-chair winds, and I agree with the commenter who praised the camera work. Thanks for posting!
The ending is bloody outstanding. The power in that final chord that just hangs there for what seems like forever my god it's literally euphoric
"It's a love song."
--- Messiaen, on this piece.
It is.
we can feel
Of course it is...
Lol
They should do one called Amywong.
Best interpretation I've ever heard! Perfection! Greatest music of the 20th century!
Utterly magnificent!
This is exceptional. I have never heard such a convincing performance.
beautiful piece and beautiful performance
This was overwhelming..too much too beautiful
Fantastic!!!!
Stunning and spectacular. Soaring sonics. Bravo.
Astonishing!!!
Fantastic 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🎼🎶💕
Grazie, splendido.
I come here to remind myself of how fucking awesome Futurama is for referencing this musical score.
I have lived with this work for almost fifty years and couldn't make it out. NOW I HAVE! Apparently Xavier Cugat and his Orchestra dropped acid and Messaien was there to write in down.
Is this a true story?
It has to be!
Invoking Xavier Cugat is definitely dating yourself.
You must be referring to Mvt. 10. The rest of the piece must have been inspired by Cugat’s marriage to Charo‼️ 😊👱♀️
Mesmerising!
Прекрасное исполнение! Солисты, дирижёр и оркестр отлично чувствуют музыку. Юджа Ванг притягивает своей игрой
This is contemporary music at its best
Contemporary? 1948 is contemporary?
Too tonal to be contemporary.
@@segmentsAndCurves “contemporary”has nothing to with tonality, it’s just a time frame
@@zgart /j/j/j
I think the best term in this case is "modern music"
Sublime, très belle performance de l'orchestre, et de la pianiste.
カメラワークが素晴らしい。
ユジャ・ワンの目をアップしたり、緊張感をうまく引き出しています。指揮者のドゥダメルの表情もいいです。
So much raw power. Almost unrefined
Genius!!!!
amazing
What a triumph.
I wonder how many recordings and performances of Turangalîla-Symphonie Cynthia Millar has played Ondes Martenot for.
I am studying this to perform it. I am a Vibraphone player. This is the best I found to practice. Great Dudamel! Great Yuja Wang! For other percussion players: there is a mistake in number IV, in the second measure the cord is played on the 4th semiquaver of the second crotchet instead of on the second semiquaver, following the phrase of the woodwinds
I'm sure you're right but I daresay we'll cope !
Giulio Patara: what a clever boy you are!
Capolavoro assoluto!
it is one of my favourite pieces ever. and it is my dream to perform it gaash. who knows maybe one day
Like covid-19,
I can have time for listening this music now.
After about 20 years it grows on you
Looooooove!
This music invokes spirituality, but it isn't at all spooky. There is power there to be sure, but the power is beautiful, and it's fun!
Messiaen explained the meaning of ‘turangalîla’
as a combination of two Sanskrit words: turanga,
meaning time which flows, movement or rhythm; and
lîla, meaning a kind of cosmic love involving acts of
creation, destruction and reconstruction, the play of
life and death.
Epic !
Messiaen's Turangalia is a wonderful tremendous masterpice and yet not available on Blu-ray.....WHY?
A truly extraordinary performance, full of energy, perhaps the best I've ever heard.
Esta muy bonito
OLIVIER MESSIAEN WAS AND WILL BE UNIQUE !!!!!!!!!
Will hear her with this piece in our Elbphilharmonie soon 💁🏻
This was filmed and edited so well
The Holophone version is just as amazing
It’s super tension darkness oily factory…..people are really getting into it….salute for everyone.
out of space and time
i just wrote an essay talking about VIII thorugh the end, i used words i have never used before.
This might be weird but I’d love to read it!???? I’m obsessed. Voice.amw@gmail.com
BeuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuTiful!!
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😍😍😍😍😍
Fantastic interpretation and a stunning video quality! It's a shame that the director decided it'd be a great idea to change takes every second. I don't know why all modern concert filmings use that; it's exasperating and hurts the eyes. 😞
I cannot agree more. When the world's pace is increasing like mad, classical music should on the contrary cherish calm and quiet. I'm not talking about the music itself but about the conditions of listening to and enjoying it.
I completely agree about the video editing. The quick cut edits are dizzying and almost headache inducing. Turangalîla is a 70-minute symphony, not a 3-minute MTV music video from the 1980s. It almost spoils my enjoyment of an otherwise beautifully filmed and recorded performance.
😎🎹
@@marshallartz395 I guess we have to do as the Bayreuth audience does: cover our eyes and just listen away.
@@micheltanaka2420: Exactly! Let’s hope that it will be re-edited someday.
🦻🙈🦻
What a workout...for the orchestra, conductor, and Yuga Wang. By the way, what do they call the odd keyboard instrument that had the lady's fingers attached to it by wires.
It's an Ondes Martenot. Pretty rare instrument
@@julienbrugger7327 Thank you for the info!
Está intenso.
きたーーー！🎉
😊meget bra musikk
この曲の演奏でベストです。ケントナガノさんも好きでしたけれど、それを超えています。
Who was the vision mixer? Groan...
I know the vision mixer was thinking that the piece was "busy" and did close-ups of the instrumentalists fingernails, pretending to "keep up" with the "amazing music", but at the middle of the piece, the cadenza of the 5th movement - please can you just show a long-shot of Yuja Wang, not zooming in to her pouting lips? The editing really spoilt it for me. PLEASE RE-EDIT!
1:00:10 sooo epic
Maicilito te amo
Эта Ванг холодна как айсберг, но играет как голос вселенной; Она неземная,Она как конечная Божественная истина!
0:43 The video couldn't follow Yuja's speed :0
I hate Turangalîla being played too fast. But Dudamel is great in this recording!
Unfortunately we got too many sweaty nose-pore closeups.
Simplemente mi RAM cerebral no puedo con esta obra
52:20 where you can hear ondes martenot
Uau!
Super Kamera! 😍 Messian ist für mich noch gewöhnungsbedürftig 🤷🏻♀️
Adoro la gran música, y con humildad pregunto:
¿Cuál es la obra sinfónica más dificil de conducir...?
omg Cynthia Millar, Yuja, and Dudamel, what a cast
Hey, Do you know the name of the style of composition of this symphonie?
@@igorcolombo5827 this is peak 20th century modernism
STRANGER THAN PARADISE
Jarmusch fan?
So gorgeous pianist that reminds me of Ada Wong character in Resident Evil Franchise.
it reminds me of Amy Wong...Futurama lol
Am I alone in thinking that the Ondes is NEVER loud enough? It's so distinctive, it should dominate.
8.梅湘,只需聆聽0:00-14:55即可
6:34 What happens to the pianist with the score?
By the way, excellent performance of this great work.
That's why this video is a mixed between the rehearsal video and the concert video. The concert was shared but it was deleted because of author's rights.
@@gonzalo_alnso Haha, everything always has an explanation; thanks!
11:15 scared me to death
LorcaLoca why especially ?
Was it the dischordance?
BarryScott Davies no, there’s some sort of strange loud audio glitch at that part. It’s loud if you have headphones
Where was this at? This venue is not in Venezuela. I don't think.
In Luxembourg, according to 1:19:33
@@hotdogfalo Yes thank you! I noted that at the end. Thank you for your kind response. Happy Thanksgiving Day.
Is there anybody to explain Messian's music ? Please give me the keys to appreciate why Messian has dedicated festivals, competitions, and is so liked. I guess he created new harmonies and synesthesia like Scriabin and Ravel. I've heard it is a spiritual music, but I rather find it like Dante or Shostakovitch: describing hell more than paradise.
I'd just imagine the beauty and the awe of end times! :) A holocaust survivor, Messiaen wrote achingly beautiful chamber music (Quartet for the End of Time) while he was interned in a concentration camp! His work is indescribably beautiful, outer worldly, orgasmic. Check out his Poeme pour Mi, which he dedicated to his wife. Or Twenty Visions of the Infant Jesus (Vingt Regards) or the Ascension for Organ! Or this symphony, which I think is his crowning achievement! :) When I listen to Shostakovitch, I hear moments of beauty, but usually of the suffering sort (5th Symp; 1st Violin Concerto). With Messiaen, I don't hear sadness in his softer moments, I hear intoxicating Love and powerful majestic joy (sometimes: horror) when experiencing his driving fortissimo moments. :)
@@arthurdturner870 Written just after world war 2, it describes the horrific dawn of the nuclear age, and the triumph of American Fascism disguised as "democracy" and "humanism." It depicts and foretells human tragedy on an unprecedented scale.
@@douglaswilliams4615 “American fascism”? What an insight! (Into your twisted brain, that is!)
@@douglaswilliams4615 Not really...This is a piece about all the forms love can take, written excessively to try to capture overwhelming feelings of love and joy. The triumph of American fascism abroad was still at least a decade away
@@arthurdturner870 Messian was a devote Catholic and was interned in a German Work Camp where the guards encouraged him to perform and even tried to supply him with instruments despite the fact that a Cello G string was unavailable (for Quartet For the End of Time).
Al final, Messiaen suena mucho a Ginastera.
Anyone tell me what percussion used in this piece please.
There is a theremin which sounded amazing.
something about the absurdist and needlessly demanding chaos of Messiaen helps me cope with the capitalist, imperial hellscape of our world
Dude you are fucked up!,
cringe
Totally agree. This is about the dawn of American Empire and the horror and menace of the nuclear age.
@@douglaswilliams4615 there you go again! Unfortunately, Messiaen would not agree with you, but feel free to insert your absurd, tone-deaf politics.
@@tahiragibson6407 Honey, it don't sound like no love I've ever experienced. And far from tone deaf, I can pick out a dozen moments in Turangalila which have been copied and elaborated upon by Hollywood film composers since the late 1940s. Your need to insult me only shows what a low-brow goof you are.
What happened at 11:16 ?
Well, well, well. Anyone else hear an embryonic cell of Bernstien's "Maria" (West Side Story) at 22.47?. Not out of the question, really, given that Bernstein conducted its premiere and went on to write his famous musical almost a decade later.
Totally agree. Bernstein had the genius to steal from brilliance!
Most american movie score or broadway composers stole melodies or ideas of orchestration from genious european composers like Bartók, Prokofiev, Stravinsky or Messiaen. In the 2nd half of the 20 century the music schooling in America and investment in show-business was way advanced enough so that these american composers could effectively sell ideas from them and other european genious masters, without ever mentioning wich idea came from whom, thus making not very bad money, while Bartók for example had died almost as a beggar.
Stuff around 1:11:00 onwards also. 'America'. Takes about four minutes to build up to it.
Then at 1:15:11 it's Lawrence of Arabia
Futurama!
What year is this concert from?
2016 according to the ending credits
Imagine the two piano reduction.
Так забавно, вроде включил не в исполнении Бернстайна, но слышу Бернстайна)
Theremin!
