the extraordinary thing about sibelius is that we only ever get the beautiful tune the once and the rest of the time we are just longing for it to return. . . . . . and remembering what a beautiful tune it actually was while it lasted . . . .
Sibelius 5 is my favorite symphony. Sometimes I can't understand why because the work is so strange. Overall it is not conventionally beautiful, though certain passages are. Still, I appreciate the work's craggy, roughhewn nature as much as its lyricism. The 5th combines bleakness with indomitable beauty and hope. But they are never fully separated from each other - they are inextricably bound. And that is how Sibelius saw existence.
@jamesaellis Sibelius' last major work was from 1927, age 61. That's a good run! He continued to compose small works and the uncompleted 8th Symphony. He lived hard for most of his adult life: drank like a fish and smoked like a chimney. In his final years, Sibelius ironically lamented that all of his healthier living friends were dead, as were the doctors who told him to stop drinking and smoking. He was funny! I have noticed, all photos of smiling Sibelius are from retirement years!
I don't know nothing about music... but I do about psychology, and also about emotions. This song produces some sensation of the magnificence present on nature and mother earth, also the growth on spiral of a human soul. Also could someone tell me the year of this concert? I think I've met a woman from it.
@mikeppal VON karajans real name was karianis he was big in europe because the record company plugged him there [ the public ignored the fact that he was a card carring nazi ] but he never broke into the american market he made videos where he wanted everyone to look perfect like andre riue he wasnt that versitile he mostly did beethoven ill give him credit for doing all the sibelius symphonies but ormandy was more versitle doing sibelius and jazzy american composers like norman dello joio
When I despair, I play this piece and it lifts my spirit. It's like a sunbeam slicing through the clouds . I hear the horns in my head the rest of the day and smile. Thank you Sibelius.
OMG...I am crying again at this piece WHY does it do that to me? Just last week I was in the car and listening to this and I couldn't help the emotions that came out of nowhere.
@22441932 Thank you "2244..." Isn't it remarkable that we react like this? I say it's a kind of magic, although I know it is a simplistic way of describing it.
@cubanbach So, I'm not the only one who cries when I hear the 5th's last movement. It's good to know I have company. We can congratulate ourselves that we are 'tuned in' to so much beauty. It is as if the heavens are speaking to us.
@cubanbach Congratulations. You, unlike far too many people nowadays, have both a love for and a connection with fine music, on a level that transcends simple appreciation and truly moves you. You are the Ur-audience.
@megalomaniacalHalide Gosh, Mega...Thank you. What a lovely, warm comment you've given me...I don't know what to say except that your generosity made me feel so nice and I am at a loss for words to show my gratitude for your kindness.
@mikeppal yes, you are right but i don t like somebody has a huge reputation, in any case that is little unfair. sibelius might have said barbirolli sounds like what in my head. i think nobody has same mind and taste so it s strange that all think karajan is the best conducter ever.
@mikeppal but you forgot something Sibelius wasn t alive when those conducters conduct his music. Barbirolli, Colin Davis, Salonen, Jarvi and some of others are great too. i don t think Karajan is the best in Sibelius and i m little against of popularity of Karajan.
@Stickfactory i m sorry but if you didn t write Justin Bieber everywhere, i wouldn t know him. why do you compare Bieber with great composers, does he deserve ? it s not only for you.
the painting is by a British 19th century artist, J.W.M Turner and called "The Slave Ship"
The ironic thing is the music is so beautiful and peaceful when the painting is revealed, but the painting is about slavers throwing slaves off the ships so they can get the insurance money when they return to port.
@Mharakan Your description of the Turner painting is technically accurate, as far as the painting itself goes. However, the use of Turner's painting in this good performance of Sibelius 5 is confined to its powerful depiction of sun piercing a cloud scudded sky, the very thing that Sibelius was going for in his music where the harshest elements of nature are recognized (e.g., the worst of humanity's failings), but ever defeated by the thrall of its essential beauty. Still, your point is valid.
@amazingmuffinman whoops...that was actually incorrect. The Slave Ship is very similar, but the real painting is "Yacht Approaching the Coast". My apologies.
I love this rendition, I know people rave about Karayan, but this is so much more textured IMHO, and I like the fact that the conductor here is letting the music breathe and not rushing to get to the theme, its measured and it works beautifully.
Not a huge fan of the visual aids -- these sounds hardly need any help making an impact. For me the video is a net minus to a terrific performance. Though the orange glow over Salonen is a nice touch -- makes him look even more boyish somehow.
@BBQwatchman I've heard significantly faster recordings of this movement (Ashkenazy comes to mind).
As a composer, I've somewhat lost sight of the fact that there are humans playing the music. Most of the time is music on my ipod, or its just a still of the composer in a video on youtube. Flute to me just meant higher register woodwind instrument, divisi in 2 or 3, etc. This has really helped me put things into perspective. Thank you very much. This music it absolutely wonderful as well.
I'm not the biggest fan of the six chord ending, but, like Mahler's first's finale, it should grow on me.
I absolutely love this piece! I'm trying to get our conductor to have our No. Cal. orchestra play it. This rendition is SO moving! THanks for reposting it!!
The music from Spirited Away seems to take inspiration from the motive in this theme played by the horns. With good reason, too -- it's really a beautiful, simple line
I remember watching an old BBC Wildlife series back in 1985 called 'In The Wild - Mordicus The Buzzard' by Simon King. This excellent and emotional documentary featured this music. Simply stunning.
Wonderful, absolutely wonderful! The ending always brings tears to my eyes. Of all the gorgeous symphonies, this finale may very well be my favorite. It is so unusual, and splendid.
@reveli The fact that you state a high school is better than the SRO shows that your musical taste and opinions are complete trash. Grow up little boy.
Truth is, I'm 61, and my contention that Carmel HS's rendering of the finale of Sibelius' Fifth stands. I've heard Bernstein with the Vienna and Ashkenazy with the Cleveland, both at Carnegie, do the Fifth. Of recordings, I know ALL of 'em. My fav is still Ormandy and the Philadelphians, recorded back in the 60s and which I have only on cassette; can't find a CD of it.
@reveli I imagine he is. I just checked out the carmel high school version, it is very exciting. I don't agree with your assessment of this performance though, I think it is a way more subtle performance, the carmel high kids play very enthusiastically but ofcourse they do not have the ear or the emotional heft of these performers.
@jin12345678 I respect your assessment. My assessment is that Soo Han and his Carmel students not only communicated the majesty of this Finale - Sibelius' flying swans - but also the terror that is often neglected, and which Esa-Pekka and SRO neglected - at least to my ear and soul.
Perhaps I'm being too generous or hearing more than I should.
@reveli I just happened to pick up on your last sentence about growing up. I, too, am over 60 and subscribe to the belief that if you don't grow up by the time you're fifty, you don't have to. I often separate people into grownups and non grownups. So keep on keeping on!
@NKWIAM An anecdote re Growing Up: I was in the 4th grade at Audubon Grade School in Mpls. I'd recently discovered hand puppets. Bothering the student next to me with one, I was brought up short by the teacher - Mrs. Braun, tall, red-haired and quite Teutonic - bellowing my name, followed by, "Would you grow up?!" Even at 8 or 9, I remember thinking, 'What a terrible thing to tell a kid.'
Thank you for reposting this wonderful music. I was in shock when I realized how many of my favorites had been removed along with some very interesting comments. Watching and listening to this again is like getting a little bit of my life back. Very much appreciated.
