For those that don't know this movement depicts the procession of Ala, the sun god. First, the courtiers, then, beginning at 3:17, Ala himself - i.e. dawn. If you watch carefully, Gergiev adds a remarkable touch of theatre as the lights mimic the colors of the sunrise and gradually rise the blinding bright white. Really effective

That timpani roll near :35 is deadly.
-
Isn't it around 5:20 that Glazunov was said to have walked out...? I can see why HAHA! That is pretty loud, especially with the percussion.
I'm surprised he stayed for ANY of it.
-
The Ending the so called Sunrise Section is one of the greatest moments in all of Prokofiev
-
I've heard that Gergiev's ancestors were Scythian, that is why he is so much into this piece. Great work; great playing; great conducting! Thanks Bolknakker
-
Just love the way the conductor gives a signal to the double basses around 4:42. Excellent!
-
On the radio broadcast - a different performance, but this even better - you can actually hear stunned audience members saying "Wow!"

Magnifique version de cette oeuvre aujourd'hui un peu oubliée. Sur la version CD, l'orchestre attitré de Valery Gergiev - le Mariinsky - sonne encore plus "barbare" que le philharmonique de Rotterdam. Gergiev est vraiment un des grands spécialistes de Prokofiev (avec Dmitri Kitayenko). On peut également écrire que les compositeurs actuels de "musiques de films" doivent beaucoup à Prokofiev (notamment John Williams).

Cher crashphil,
merci beaucoup pour votre reaction enthousiate.
l'Execution est vraiment impressionnant, spécialement quand on est présent dans la salle du concert "live", comme moi
meme en 1997 a Rotterdam.
La emission du enregisttrement etait a la television et je j'ai fait une copy au "tape".
De dans sont aussi des fragments de la repetition avec l'orchestre; bien interessantes.
Peutetre aussi quelque chose interessant pour YouTube.
Salut, et excuses pour mon francais. :-)
