I.Stravinskij - Pulcinella Orchestral Suite - Part I/III

[merman4]

the second movement sounds very much like Hedwig's theme in harry potter!

[nss21heath]

what orchestra is this?

[raimondodisangro84]

@gsmonks Gallo for introduction and then from Pergolesi (from the FLAMINIO)

[skyflynite]

Wonderful!

[RediForKing]

I think this is better than any "actual" classical piece

[hey3apple]

I played this piece with a saxophone choir, and it actually sounded good :p

[RolandRiopelle]

With respect to the hip hop comment below, isn't it interesting to think that the early Stravinsky -- Rite of Spring, for example -- was doing with the use of percussion, and tempo and ostinati, everything that "hip hop" does to reduce the music it derives from. But Stravinsky was doing it better, smarter and with greater consciousness than hip hop. And he was doing it about 100 years before hip hop began.

[RediForKing]

@RolandRiopelle With all respect to you and your comment I think any comparison of Stravinsky with hip hop is kind of an offence to Stravisnky

[RolandRiopelle]

@RediForKing You are probably right. I certainly like Stravinsky more than Hip Hop. But I am trying to convince those who love Hip Hop to give guys like Stravinsky a listen. Maybe that's a pipe dream, but I'm trying to encourage everyone to "get along" and realize that music one great big candy mountain, and our interests are more alike than they are different. And remember, with a work like the Ebony Concerto, Stravinsky tried to bring the popular music of his day into "Classical Music."

[davidyue1314]

I like the string section!!!

[jorgeuribeclar]

Fantastic version, beautiful, Zubin Mehta the best...



[Daemoni]

The Serenata always blows me away. Love that sublime Oboe part.

[racistathiest666]

You mean to tell me this ain't WOCKA FLOCKA FLAME & GUCCI MANE????!!!!

WHERE THAT BE? WHO THAT WUZ? WHAT IT AINT FOR? WUZ UP CUZ?

Hip Hop is REAL music??!!

Our government want's us to think so. If we listen to this we will have a need to be "cultured" and therefore creating intelligent entrepreneurs who generate cash for themselves & our country. But the "powers" would rather cut spending in education, dumbing us down to create future "worker bees."

Government workers paid more than Teachers?

[Victor88j]

the oboe player y so good! who is he?

[rolo972]

@Victor88j It's the Israel Philharmonic, Oboist is Dudu Carmel, I've had the pleasure of being coached by him, he is amazing indeed!

[udistritalextrema]

LOVE, I TOTALLY LOVE from 2:10 till 5:10.

I think is called "Serenata". Someone who can tell me something about that excerpt, please.

I LOVE IT!

[dantebulsara]

suena taaaaaan facil pero la partitura te mata

[buddy2cda]

Der Komentar von Lorenzo Lassek ist sehr lustig! Denkt er, wenn der violinspieler nicht gut spielt klingt er vie eine Bratsche? That is a good "Viola Joke". I must remember that one.....

[Bolorinvasore]

0:30 is that an earing on his ear?

[Hilakos]

Stellar performance!

[AuxiliaryDrain]

So playful and inventive! The complications are even more appropriate today. It's like a fine wine, as it gets better with age. It shows me that todays composers are

trying to hard. New, complicated compositions sometimes come off sounding confound and labored. Pulcinella Suite is naturally perfect. Like a living creature!

My two-cents anyway.

Thanks for sharing!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[LorenzoLassek]

The concertmaster is out of tune in 4:47 - therefore it sounds like a viola ;-)

[AnishProductions]

beautiful! I played principal oboe on this piece! Very fun!

[0GAFF0]

im going to wacth this on saturday, in manchester waterbridge hall, i hope i wont be disapointed

[brassmaster87]

does anyone know which orchestra this is...?

[x2bassplayer]

Israel philharmonic orchestra.

[sutherndudetx]

Excellent performance. This work should be performed more often. The oboist is outstanding, having a great control of his instrument. Controlling the low notes, esp on an exposed solo, is very tricky. Excellent. job.

[JOSHUADIRECTOR85]

IS THE OBOIST DUDU CARMEL??

[lemidi]

seems like that

[BarbaraPloyer333]

One of Stravinsky's neoclassical works! He began to simplify his style more and more after his earlier interaction with Satie.

Did you know that Stravinsky actually found the music of the 18h century quite attractive? He adored minuets and the sonata format of the time.

Yay for Stravinsky! =)

[TuboEspectador]

@BarbaraPloyer333 Love how you say it: "Yay, for Stravinsky!" Me, too.

[valadyr2]

Wow, I was listening to Rite of Spring before that and what a brutal change...

[unclvinny]

@valadyr2 The story of how Stravinsky came to write this is pretty different from the Rite of Spring story. This was mostly based on someone else's tunes, so it has a much more mellow feel. (Honestly, I'm not sure I would ever guess this is Stravinsky. I still love it, though...)

[paolocongia]

voi rispettate, io amo!

[Classicalguy12]

What Orchestra is this?

[aragunal]

The Israeli Philharmonic

[Classicalguy12]

Oh...thanks...I should've figured that out..lol.

[fuzzjohn]

Excellent oboe but he could hurt himself with such violent jerking! :-p

[jude4312]

i don't know about oboe but for strings, a lot of expressive movements are actually taught. if you notice violin players moving similarly to one another. so i'm thinking it is same for oboe, perhaps to change the dynamics and such. if you notice the guy heads down most of the time for pick up notes, reducing the projection.

[musicolorhythm]

Fantastico director.

[dantebulsara]

no solo el oboe , sino que la orquesta bravo!

[robotkarel]

coincido, excelente oboista

[omega0zigma]

Exellent Oboist.... Beautifull Sound...

Muy bueno para tocar super Musical...

Bravo me encanta esta vercion...

[mpppadre]

Super!!!!!!Bravo

[oboistCONDUCTOR]

Bel video!Possiamo vedere tante sorprese delle stelle del bussiness musicale

[devilexi]

the oboe player is excellent

[oboistCONDUCTOR]

devilexi:Lo conosci? Ma se gli oboisti suonassero più rilassati a chi li vede risparmierebbero un pò di ansia.Compara gli stessi soli con il violinista.Non sò sò da che insegnante viene quest'abitudine di fare tante smorfie, come se con quello diventa più musicale?

[JuveMarchionni]

@devilexi

I play the oboe and I think he is a little bit exaggerated with his body movements, don't you think so?

Anyway he has a great sound.

[jonwflute]

@devilexi

he's not just that, he's the best, and an amazing musician

[FabiusAM]

Genial Igor, magistral Zubin.

[sambrewin]

Actually it's by a few composers, the sinfonia at the beginning is by domenico gallo, from the first movement of a trio sonata for 2 violins and cello. But it was stravinski who got it wrong, he attributed them all to pergolesi. Numpty. Still, this is ace

[belianis]

This music is so much fun; you should post the entire ballet.

[scottamgreig]

The original composer was in fact Domenico Gallo, Not Pergolesi!!

~Scott~

[Jafuet]

yes...in fact this is plagiarism within plagiarism...Stravinsky have good taste :)

[srvaughan]

What is the name of the original composition? Or do you know wich pergolesi-work stravinsky got his inspiration from?

[Observer585]

Stabat Mater

[kosi1979]

Exellent work.Super.Bravo.

[Zappacho]

Asuka Soryu? You're an Evagelion and Stravinsky-Fan?

Wow, very good taste !!! Really.

[eduardocalzada]

exellent who is playing??????????????? bravooooooooooooooo

[fairyboy05]

i make an excuse but pergolesi is like the fathere of the pre-neoclasical is not neoclasical in real but of course is the beginingopf the beginin. pergolesi dies at 26 he became so popilar so the editors transforoming the repertoty of others artist in his ow. grretings from venezuela.

[gatomjp]

It's actually one of the finer version of that piece I've ever heard...and my last name IS Pulcinella, so I should know!

[passarimdobrasil]

Excellent and fine interpretation of this neoclassical piece of Stravinsky.
