  • WOW! Terrific!! Thank you so much for posting!

  • mmm so good at creating, so beautiful at composing, so brilliant at speaking... why conduct??

  • This was used in Fantasia for the creation of the world sequence.

  • the original pictures are amazing

  • 5:13... What a great photo.

  • It definitely SOUNDS like he was a terrible conductor. You can hear the bassoon in the begining being rushed. Its his solo...he chooses the tempo.

  • @violinchic520 Its his orchestra...he chooses who to rush.

  • @violinchic520 Stravinsky has been quoted saying that solo should be strictly in tempo.

  • @JRichardYoung The tempo marking in the score says tempo rubato ... seems a little counter intuitive.

  • @violinchic520 yeah he sounds terrible... go listen to someone who is good... maybe madonna or katy perry...

  • Thank you for sharing this fascinating recording and photos. What label was this record? Was it an early Gramophone record? RCA? a 78rpm? I Also, I'm just curious how you found this record? Amazing!

  • @pfbsn It's a 78rpm record set on Columbia records, french pressing.

    "Also, I'm just curious how you found this record?" -> I have my ways ;)

  • The music sounds like its from an unrestored Kurosawa film, but at the same time, it produces a hypnotic effect of it's own.

  • I've heard that Stravinsky was a terrible conductor.

    Soubds great to me though,( if the recording quality was better!)

  • interesting record

    solo basson sounds here like trumpet con sordini, isn't it?

    but conducted by composer...

  • awesome

  • Comment removed

  • It kind of sounds like they are recording in someone's garage while someone is continually sharpening a pencil in the background. But it is neat to hear Stravinsky conduct.

  • Superb upload. Thanks a lot!

  • WOW! thank you!
