The 3rd movement has to be one of the glories of the Romantic Movement in music.

One of the most beautiful and easy to listen symphonies. Very ahead of its time - because as amateur Borodin wasn’t as tied with conventions. It is like concentrate of the best from the music of his peers into one awesome medley. No long developments, no time wasting, stright to the point. And I bet that the last movement inspired Hollywood western music a lot.

Hate to bring it up, but boron was discovered 25 years before he was born, and it is a metal. He did, however, research the benzene fluorides in depth and his paper on the subject is still the definitive word on that group of compounds. He discovered many useful reactions, including a method of synthesizing nitrogen-based agricultural fertilizers. He was also an early champion of training women to be Medical Doctors.

Borodin, Balakirev, Cui, Mussorgsky, and Rimsky-Korsakov were members a Russian group some called the"Mighty Five." Their intention was to bring Russian themes into classical music. They opposed the Western musical themes that Russian graduates of the mainly German conservatories had used in their compositions. Borodin was busy teaching, scientific research, family, and music was a pastime. Therefore, much of his compositions were finished by other people. Rimsky-Kosakov finished the great opera Prince Igor. He was a close friend of Liszt. Liszt premiered some of the Borodin works. These five were the creators of some the first "Russian Sound" in classical music. However, many of these themes came from the" People". This is a fine video, played by one of the great orchestras, in a hall that makes the whole thing shine.

Remember that Borodin has a fascination with Central Asia; as witnessed to by In the Steppes of Central Asia and his opera Prince Igor, amongst others. One should not seek pictorial explanations for music as a rule, but it is impossible to avoid the image of Tatar horsemen charging across the steppes in the first movement.

@phillipvietri8786 6 жыл бұрын
@PolishViking, it is quite an opera. Very long. Borodin took so long over it that one night, Rimsky and (I think) Balakirev sat and orchestrated it while he treated the completed pages with a chemical solution of his own invention! I do not know if it is the case today, but for many years the only monument to him in Russia/the USSR was as a scientist. You probably know the Polovtsian dances; they are available on KZbin in an operatic performance. Igor is also the only opera I know of to feature a musical setting of a solar eclipse.

This symphony marked my teens years and will remain in my soul forever... This version of Karel M. Chichon is just what I was looking for..a definitive version. Thanks also to Concertgebouw orchestra and of course Alexander B...and the poster..

I was in an elementary school concert band, fifth, sixth, and seventh graders (a composite of musicians from eleven schools in north Atlanta) in the late 1960s, an we played the first movement of this piece, transcribed to C-minor and arranged for band. We competed in regionals and got a 'SUPERIOR' rating. We also traveled to Pittsburg, PA for a festival at Duquesne University. Happy memories. I still love this piece, Borodin is still my favorite composer.

I learned about Borodin as a chemist long before I heard his music, and I've been enthralled by all his works since. Did anyone else hear a little of John Williams' "The Cowboys" in the 4th movement? I can't explain the similarities I think I heard, but I'm sure they're there.

Borodin was a feminist and supported women's higher education, especially their going into medicine as physicians. He died of a heart attack at age 50 while dancing with his wife at some kind of an event.

Oh, my academic chemist of world regard, my Slavic folk history patriot, my orphaned aldehyde submediant prince-I’ll love you til the steppes roll in like the tides and Peter’s great horses plow the Baltic. If only you left us one more great symphony (The “Siberian!”), or an essential Eastern European Clarinet/English Horn/French Horn triple concerto, or, perhaps best of all, an Orthodox Easter Mass, to bookend Brahms’ German Requiem. Only you could make Russia so proud.

I have heard a recording of his first symphony in which an English horn substituted for the 'cello section in the statement of the main theme of the slow movement. I have also herd one where that theme is stated by a solo 'cello. A Siberian symphony? The opening movement of the third symphony certainly might have been headed that way. One of the visitors who heard Borodin play the slow movement of the third through in an impromptu recital described a set of variations, remarkable in that each variation was crescendo throughout, and that the theme was quite unlike anything Borodin had ever written before. One of his piano works was used as a basis for a section of a requiem. I have always considered Borodin's A-major Quartet to be essentially a symphony scored for string quartet. Too much music there to be heard clearly if it had been scored for full orchestra, rather like the Scherzo in D-major for string quartet which was the only portion of Borodin's third symphony that he got completed on paper (the first movement was recreated by Glazounov from memory, from one of the in-home recitals), and Glazounov orchestrated the scherzo based, in part, on Borodin's notes in the margin of the quartet score.

At Univ. of Texas in Austin , back in the late 50's, I was a cellist in the Univ. Symphony, and our conductor was Alexander von Kreisler, a man trained in Russia. Through him, I came to know this Symphony, as well as Overture to Russlan & Ludmilla, Cappricio Espagnole, Scenes from Boris Goudonov, "Adieu les Forest" from Joan of Arc, Tschaikowsky's Roccoco Variations, AND, we played Tchaikowsky's Romeo and Juliet Fantasy,... to precede a performance of the 1st Piano Concerto... with Van Cliburn as soloist.

@@IsaacW. believe it or not, metal and classical are similar, music theory wise. depends on the subgenre though, I suppose. many classical pieces can make some pretty killer riffs. to each their own, though.

Absolutely awesome! It's like listening to progressive rock at it's best but instead of electric instruments a symphony orchestra has been used! It's very dark and colourful! It's hard to believe composing was a hobby to mr. Borodin. He was a chemist(!)
