I love Holst's style, his melodies aren't overly romantic, as with some other composers of his time, and he's great at conveying this sort of adventurous, lively, and somewhat mysterious atmosphere without being cheesy. Quite the contrary, actually, his ideas are always clear and inspired, at least to my ears.

I feel like there was always kind of a folk-song influence there, similar to a few other English composers of that generation (Vaughn Williams and Grainger, for instance). The simplicity and immediate “hummability” of the melodies in particular is a key trait of this.

I have not heard this music before today. It makes me think of Arabia and I understand that Maestro Holst went there for health reasons at one time. For such a health challenged man he produced some powerful and emotive music which ought to be heard much more than it is. May he rest in peace

Correct. Holst took a holiday to Algeria in 1908 on medical advice. This suite was composed based off of the street music he heard there.

This is a brilliant and under performed piece, containing many hints of the mature writing style that we would hear in later works. We performed this with the Manchester Beethoven Orchestra some years ago and it really made an impression. It deserves to be heard more. Some brilliant writing for everyone.

I remember first hearing only a part of _In the Street of the Ouled Nails_ on the radio when I was about 13 and being absolutely captivated by the haunting ostinato. Annoyingly the presenter didn't say what the piece was or by whom! It must have been only about 8-10 years later that I identified the music and could listen to it in its entirety.

Don't know why the conductor never let the "Leitmotiv" rhythm with the triads (first mvt) be played in time.. The rest is superb! Great piece and great work!
@timj49093 жыл бұрын
I think there may be some note to the conductor to the effect that that rhythm shouldn't be taken literally. I may be wrong, but when we played it I seem to remember we put a lot of work into getting the feel of that just right which involved deviating somewhat from what was written. We were told not to play a precise triplet, as I remember. All written music is up against the problem that musical notation can only ever be an approximation to what the composer intends and the audience needs-musical interpretation entails knowing what deviations to make. The performance has to create the feeling of certain notes being stretched or delayed or rushed relative to the beat-not the feel of a precisely played syncopation matching the beat. Holst has written that out as far as the notation allows, but the performance has to go the rest of the way, and does.

Holst had been listening to Rimsky Korsakov
@dbryant43 жыл бұрын

@LordoftheFleet Жыл бұрын
The only thing that Holst's Beni Mora and Rimsky Korsakov's Scheherazade have in common is the fact that the inspiration for both stemmed from the Arabic. Holst wasn't trying to imitate Scheherazade when he wrote Beni Mora. Beni Mora has a totally different perspective than that of Rimsky Korsakov's piece. Musically, both pieces are worlds apart. You might just as well ask if Ravel had been listening to Rimsky Korsakov when he wrote his two works that had the title Scheherazade. Likewise, had Nielsen been listening to Rimsky Korsakov when he wrote incidental music to a production of Adam Oehlenschläger’s play Aladdin? In both cases the answer is "no". Finally, the vast majority of Rimsky Korsakov's music doesn't resemble the music in his Scheherazade.

The ostinato in the third movement is irritating to the point of obnoxiousness. An insult to orchestral players as well as the audience. And finally giving it to the tympani is just stupid. A far, far cry from the inventiveness of The Planets.
