Bizet - Symphony in C 4/4. AVI OSTROWSKY - Conductor, Bilkent Symphony Orchestra

[iljajj]

Actually, Bizet wrote another symphony, the 'Roma' Symphony of 1868-1871. Which I marginally prefer over this one.

@ciavattarmy trovati un lavoro FALLITO!

[Arditorix]

@ciavattarmy non fare finta di capire la musica classica, brutta zecca IGNORANTE e OTTUSA!

Voi radical chic, politically correct di sto cazzo che giocate a fare i rivoluzionari stalinisti e poi leccate il culo hai vostri padroni sionisti.

spero che una valagna ti sopprima presto ZECCA MANGIA MERDA!

AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAH­AHA!

Wonderful music. Just heard a masterful performance by the San Antonio Symphony. Joy joy joy!!!!

Amazing ending.

[pSAurOnq]

First oboe was indeed very good during the whole symphony.

[AmpLadasA]

I love love LOVE this movement so much.

I heard a classical music radio announcer describe this symphony this way: " And now for Bizet's Symphony in C, his First Symphony, actually it's the only symphony he wrote - but it's a corker." It's a corker, indeed.

@lynktalz Actually, Bizet wrote another symphony called Roma, it doesn't get played at all.

[lynktalz]

@LeeGeorge08 Thanks for that information. I listened to the Roma Symphony and think it's a beautiful work. His Symphony in C is more lively which is perhaps why it's played more.

[ozzycouture]

Excellent performance; BRAVO!!!

This on one my favourite "first" symphonies.

[CanadaPisces]

A most enjoyable performance! TY!

Bizet hated this as an adult didn't he, what the heck, I absolutely love it. Beautiful, exuberant, joyous. Affirmation of young life. Eternal sunshine of glorious summer. Makes you want to dance.

[BernardProfitendieu]

Balanchine agreed.

[MelosAntropon]

@tairanotomomori Actually, most musicologists I have read say that Bizet seemed to have forgotten about it completely. I can understand that - it was likely an assignment piece (he was 17, and midway through his studies at the conservatory), and when I was a young student in the university, I had to write assignment pieces every year, most of which I never kept, and don't recall today.

If you recall where you may have read that comment, I'd like to seek it out myself.

wow...the tempo is amazing! we could not play anywhere that close at our concert.
