A.W. Ketèlbey-"In a Monastery Garden"-"In a Persian Market"

[rockgor]

Ketelbey was British. Very successful and very rich. He conducted many

recordings in the days of the 78 rpm records.

Thanks for the melodious post.

[MLE399]

Beautiful and peace to soul. Kaunista ja rauhaa tuova sielulle.

[jprichva]

It's kitsch, but it's fun.

[barram50]

i have just found this record in boxes we had forgotten about ....flip side cavaleria rusticana ..they are both beautiful

[mindset43]

I had an old 78 of this when I was about 10 which was played on a wind up gramophone (over and over). There was a sock (clean) stuffed in the the loudspeaker to muffle it (hence put a sock in it). Miss the scratchy sounds that accompanied the music. Nostalgic.

[alternatehistories]

This piece would be even more impressive if we could be convinced that Ketelbey had never, ever heard Tchaikovsky's "Waltz of The Flowers". Sounds to me like Ketelbey borrowed a line or two from it.

[cherubijn100]

This is sublime!

[midnightveil68]

This version is so much better......and very beautiful vocals.

[Bruce99100]

where is this beautiful monastery?

[macciboma]

@Bruce99100 Abbazia di Piona sul lago di Como.

[gundwann]

such an uplifting piece of music remembered from my childhood

[charade97]

I, too, would like to know where the photos were taken? Thank you.

Albert Ketèlby (1875-1959) fué uno de los más grandes clásicos, comparable a sus predecesores. Sus obras, "In A Persian Market", "Bells Across The Meadows", o "In A Monastery Garden", son una buena prueba de ello.

[luigimiu]

Fantastica!

[IzadeSouzaF]

Divino....Magnífico....toca prudundamente a alma de uma forma ímpar. Muitíssimo obrigado por este presente.

[hwame]

This was one of my mother's favourite pieces of music and I haven't heard it since she last played it. She died when I was 17 and now I'm 56. So thank you so much for posting this.

[Glorializa]

I really love "In a Monastery Garden" it is accompanied by so many very happy memories for me. Albert Ketelbey composed such picturesque music you can't help but "see" his music as well as hear it.

[Liloca961]

MAGNÍFICO!!!

[BeatoAstral]

Este é um estilo de composição que me emociona! E Ketelbey é extraordinário em todas as suas composições! Agradeço ao Altíssimo por ter dado a inspiração a Ketelbey!

[yehoshuah3]

listening to albert ketelbey is an opportunity to know one of the best composers in the world. his music lifts our souls up to ecstasy sensations, which no drugs are able to do it, and with a big difference: music is very good to health.

[macciboma]

Semplicemente musica Angelica è questa. Grazie da Walter.

[m222rjr]

I was interested to read the remarks by "ghadira" on this piece because I had never heard of Ketelby until introduced to his music by a lady in Malta. Kettelby is truly "the unknown composer who's music everybody knows!

[tonicolim]

Meu Deus, como comentar algo que a música deste gênio me faz sentir feliz e triste ao mesmo tempo? Onde encontrar palavras que exprimam a força gigantesca do que é sublime, do que é maior , do que é imenso , vazio e dovino?...

[TashkentFox]

I have a great passion for the works of Ketelbey, even his performances of pieces by other composers are pure gold.

[fercisco]

Ketelbey, es uno de los mejores compositores. Que melodias, tan suaves y fuertes a la vez!

[ghadira]

what more can one listen to. The music is simply soothing and it comes from the heart. A shade of Rachmaninov.

[jgilp]

Nosotros la tocamos con la banda y la verdad el tema es dificil de interpretar por los reguladores

[macciboma]

Il tema sarà difficile da suonare, ma il tema melodico è grande. Gracias

[teteondina]

Excelente este compositor siempre había buscado este tema,no hay como la buena música

[YTM021807]

I have a "London Phase 4" somewhere and wondered why this music is not heard more! It is very picturesque and beautiful.

The video is splendid. Thank you!

[thuggedout2DAmax]

albert ketelbeys my great great uncle

[davidbrianjones]

that is weird, because I am also related to him! This really is a very good version. does anyone know who it is? thanks David

[naguerea]

@thuggedout2DAmax

Fantastic. I know he was a very private person and kept his thoughts even from he nearest and dearest.

What a wonderful gift he had.

Best Regards

[curlingnf]

My Mother uses to sing this to us when we were growing up in Newfoundland. This is one of the best recordings I have ever heard. Does anyone know the orchestra playing? Also, does anyone know th lyrics? I remember some, but have forgotten most. It's a long time ago.

Really beautiful and inspiring. Are the videos

in Italy? Thanks. Tom, in Montreal.

[h1e2l3e4n5e6]

Musique inspirée!!!! Splendide, Magnifique!!!

[bourreDeLaVie]

I'd hoped to find a version of this piece that I first heard on a 2nd-hand 12"/30cm 78 rpm disc about 1957, but likely dating from the early 1930s, including processional Kyrie Eleison with a sound swell - presumably the monks approaching into view, and a contralto solo refrain - a charming lyric, beginning: Through the wintry twilight calling...(all I can remember of those treasured words). Just perhaps, someone might rediscover this recording, because for me, it's the real mccoy. Thankyou.

[AintBadAintgood]

Ditto.

[Gisleig]

è linda essa música

[taffinder]

[8CDG8]

I wonder where the images are from? Truly beautiful!

Exquisite. "In a Monastery Graden" conveys a feeling of sacredness that no other piece of music can possibly match.

[valentiv]
