Gubaidulina - Musical Toys [1/2].wmv

[@christianwouters6764]

I like this very much. They are not really compositions but short soundscapes before that word existed. Very picturesque: you see the bear and the black woman whistling a blues tune !

[@user-74652]

If anyone would like a translation of the Russian footnotes: 1:35 - Here, and in later similar places, the finger is removed and then immediately presses down on the key without making a sound 6:54 - The cross indicates that you must press the keys down without making a sound I hope I have been helpful. The reason I posted these is that, in the description of the second part, Asathis is asking if anyone could translate the Russian footnotes.

These are utterly delightful. Thanks for posting.

[@peterluth]

Interesting and pleasant. It's lucky that they are short pieces so there is no time to get bored.

[@daniel15671]

I can't WAIT for the rest of this. What a remarkable voice this composer has!

[@antoinezygfryd]

Quelle musique merveilleuse! Grand merci pour l'envoi!

"A Bear Playing the Double Bass and the Black Woman" : Best title ever!! :D

@supersmashermeta The only way you can get it is if it is shipped from Europe. The lowest price I could find was somewhere around $21.

[@amielgonzaga5239]

Buena música, y estudiable.

[@bennyksmusicalworld]

I think this has a connection to Some of Dallapicolla's music

@Barbapippo We do our best.

[@bassionbean]

I just had to listen to the black woman one. Is that the bear playing BOTH the bass and the black woman or the black woman is a separate entity to the bear's playing of the Kontrababe?

[@MrDizzyvonclutch]

UH, WHY DO THEY HOLD THE Bb WAY AFTER IT DIES!?!?

[@averymathews4643]

It's a harmonic thing...notes ring and stuff.

[@MrDizzyvonclutch]

okay Avery, good point. You never know when wolfman may wanna hear that note slowly die for 66 seconds!

[@Barbapippo]

not all contemporary composers are fake, after all...

[@supersmashermeta]

Where can I find the sheet music for this? Money's not an issue, so much as it isn't an insanely high price.

[@danal81]

@Barbapippo there are many who are not fake

[@thebloads]

Does this remind anyone of petrushka?

[@polszik]

i find there is too much reverb
