Bohuslav Martinů Symphony No 1 Allegro non troppo

[Ear4Beauty]

Thanks. That's pretty exciting with some new orchestral effects. I know a couple of Martinu symphonies. I like new effects he gets in the woodwinds and also some of his rhythmic ideas.

@Ear4Beauty, yes I also love the orchestration which is both gorgeous and original. The 1st symphony remains my favorite. I have posted one of his piano concertos (maybe on my other channel Messeblanche, I am too lazy to check)

[Vanzetti1936]

great symphony - what's the pic btw

[JCHBONNET]

Artwork from Max Ernst called "Europe after the Rain"

[Nijmegen1955]

No, the painting is wonderful, JCHBONNET !

And so is this great music. Pity it isn't performed that often...

Thanx for uploading.

Max Ernst, i love him!

thank you

Czech Philarmonic Orchestra / Vaclav Neumann. The picture may not be perfectly fitting the music but I love it too.
