Jean Sibelius - Kuusi Op.75/5

[HopeWithPandora]

47 comments!!! for what I personally percieve as the 'purest' most 'soulful' piece of music ever gifted to me.

Sacrilege??? perhaps... but it proves that people know less than they they think they know.

This was a gift... just took me a long time to unwrap... but without the need for batteries... remains no 1 of a very long list... forever [smile]

[HighHeelWoman1975]

@HopeWithPandora Wise words... Thank you, again. <3

[TheRestlesswind1]

Always a delight to behold and be here : )

HopeWithPandora (me; ) sends you seasonal greetings and smiles : )

[HighHeelWoman1975]

@TheRestlesswind1 Thank you so much, my dear YT-friend! All the same to you too!

[MrKatajisto]

This tree is the king in the forest. So is this piece in this "forestry" suite. So easy in the key tones, and after that, it opens the imagination ...

[HighHeelWoman1975]

@MrKatajisto So true... thank you for your nice comment!

[jonnikati]

I think I listened all the "Kuusi"'s that are in youtube, and I tell you sincerely, this is the best version!

[HighHeelWoman1975]

@jonnikati I think so too, you've got an excellent taste! Thank you for your nice comment!

[mortaltatane]

it's remember me the autumn leaves

[HighHeelWoman1975]

@mortaltatane Yes, I can imagine why. Thank you for the nice comment!

[HopeWithPandora]

: ) On a memory trail...

this is more special...as...it resonates my mums 'mahogany cased' piano...

dad's is Walnut...and rarely gets played...though 'both' can play.

This has been a concert memory night of many tunes that make up my memories...

Thanks so much...for this xxx

[HighHeelWoman1975]

@HopeWithPandora You're always so welcome, my friend! :)

[HopeWithPandora]

@TACarhart ...always the softest notes...

Sorry our acquaintance was so short...but this will remain a favourite as long asI retain a channel here that I feel isn't spoilt. It is early days for me with my new channel...and time so limited for recreation...but I have some choice treasures I hope to share and do justice to...

A good-evening wished alongside thanks...to you. A beautiful upload indeed. Thanks!!! Christine : )

[HighHeelWoman1975]

@HopeWithPandora Hello, Christine! How nice that you found your way back here even you've changed channel. I'm glad. And I'll be here, no need for a new channel (at least for now), but I think I've just been lucky in that matter. Please, keep coming back. I'll visit your new channel soon. :)

[Bruchag]

as Comments are blocked .......hello again my Sibelian artistic friend

:-)))))

[HighHeelWoman1975]

@Bruchag Hello to you too, my friend! Wonderful how we always find each other... via Sibelius. :)

[Kilchattan7]

this re-appeared out the ether this morning and well its still as lovely



[HighHeelWoman1975]

@Kilchattan7 Thank you so much! And thanks for commenting too. :)

[Flamennova]

Thanks for the lovely music, and for the introduction to Finnish artists! It beats me why this enchantingly beautiful melody is not much more famous the world over. But then the Anglophone world is another Eco-system, I suppose, where Sibelius is often regarded as just another prominent nationalist composer and not one of the greatest 20th century musical geniuses! Most do not know of anything other than Finlandia, the Swan of Tuonela and may be the Symphonies. What a pity.

[HighHeelWoman1975]

@Flamennova Thank you for your very expertic comment. I agree with you totally and I'm very happy that you liked the song.

[lewars1912]

Very nice. Would never have known this was by Sibelius. One of my favourite composers.

[HighHeelWoman1975]

@lewars1912 I'm so glad you liked! This is really a great piece from "Sibbe". Thanks so much for your comment.

[HighHeelWoman1975]

@TACarhart Thank you for your comment. I'm sure many thinks like you, me included.

[edgluhrs]

Thanks for the fantastic collection of art accompanying the song!

[HighHeelWoman1975]

@edgluhrs You're so welcome. I'm happy you liked! Thanks for the comment!

[HighHeelWoman1975]

@BloodyBloodPeker Hienoa! Onnea sitten vaan 3/3:en! Ja fiilistele Sinä vaan... Siitä se sielu syntyy niille äänille, joita flyygelistäsi lähtee... Kiitos kommentistasi! :o)

[Kenentigern7]

Quality

[HighHeelWoman1975]

@Kenentigern7 I like to think so too. Thanks so much for your comment!

[hajnika46]

The great piano playing of Sibelius composition with the wonderful paintings, ,

they are a big gift from the HighHeeIWoman1975 to me and to anybody els.

I'm very happy and thanks the sharing !!!!!

[HighHeelWoman1975]

@hajnika46 What a beautiful comment. And so nice thoughts in it. I'm so happy, that you liked. Thank you very much, dear hajnika46.

[MarcheseCadmio88]

2:39 Ha! On the right...

[HighHeelWoman1975]

@MarcheseCadmio88 Yes, he's the composer himself, Sibelius, very drunk, in this Gallén-Kallela's painting called "The symposium". The others are composers Cajanus and Merikanto and on the left there's painter, Gallén-Kallela, himself. Maybe it can be a funny picture, if you look at it that way, but I think it's rather sad. Thanks for your comment!

[MarcheseCadmio88]

@HighHeelWoman1975 Oh, Merikanto? I didn't recognize him. I like his music too. I don't know why, but all composers from Finland (Sibelius, Merikanto, Rautavaara, Sallinen), Estonia (Pärt) and Scandinavia in general (Grieg, Sinding, Leifs) always suit to my tastes. In particular Sibelius moves me: he's so direct, refined, so melancholic and profound! Adorno called him "duffer", I call him ART.

[HighHeelWoman1975]

@MarcheseCadmio88 Well, the legend tells that Merikanto was too busy to model for Gallén-Kallela to this painting, so Gallén-Kallela used a turnip as a model for Merikanto's head... Maybe that's why you didn't quite recognized him from that painting...ha haa...

I'm very happy and proud that you like our composers and music so much. Seem like you really can appreciate it. I love them too. Enourmosly! :D

[BrianMayRedSpecial]

beautiful

[HighHeelWoman1975]

Thank you so much for your comment. I'm glad you liked!

[YaoiIsOkay]

Meillä kävi eilen sellainen kaksikko soittamassa sibeliusta sellolla ja pianolla, voi että ne oli iyhanasti soitettuja! Varsinki Finlandialle oli ihana sovitus sellolle ja pianolle...

[HighHeelWoman1975]

Sovittajien työ on yleisesti aliarvostettua. Kiitos kommentistasi.

[SongsAreLikeTattoos]

Eero Heinonen is a great pianist! I had the opportunity to be in his class last summer. I'm still wondering all of his wors about music and piano playing... and actually you can hear them clearly in his playing... Just love this piece and love this video! :)

[HighHeelWoman1975]

Thank you so much for you comment. Very nice to hear that kind of thoughts too. I've only listened his recordings, but love them very much. And I'm so happy, if you liked the video too. I love making them.

Thanks again.

[marisayutub]

Fantástico

[HighHeelWoman1975]

Thank you! I'm so happy you liked it.

[TheKaichi]

Oi että rakastan tätä kappaletta! Kiitos postauksesta, kun ei tunnu mistään tätä muuten löytyvän.

[HighHeelWoman1975]

Ole hyvä vaan! Kuinka hienoa, että pidit ja löysit kaipaamasi. Iso kiitos kommentoinnistasi.

[Sirri2]

Upeeta ja mahtavaa! Hienointa suomalaista musiikkia ja kuvataidetta. Tietenkin tuli mieleen monia teoksia jotka myöskin olisivat ansainneet tulla tähän mukaan mutta kolmeen ja puoleen minuuttiin ei tietenkään mitenkään voi saada mahtumaan kaikkia mestariteoksia. Suuret kiitokset tästä!

[HighHeelWoman1975]

Totta, totta! Kaikkein vaikeinta oli valita, vaikka tietysti siihen vaikutti myös se, mitä kuvia jo sattui koneella olemaan. Tyko Sallinen, Pekka Halonen ja Ellen Theslef puuttuvat kokonaan, vaikka suosikkejani ovatkin.

Kiitos ihanasta kommentista, Sirri!
