Koechlin: Vers la voûte étoilée ∙ hr-Sinfonieorchester ∙ Ariane Matiakh

[@ausmiku]

A wonderful piece by a fantastic composer. Koechlin is underrated and not played enough. He belongs in the pantheon of all-time great composers.

[@mimichelmi]

Immense génie du XXe siècle encore beaucoup trop méconnu ! Merveilleux Charles Koechlin !

[@Scriabin_fan]

Koechlin's music needs to be played more often.

[@AmisCharlesKoechlin]

Excellente interprétation du nocturne « Vers la voûte étoilée » op. 129, par un superbe orchestre dirigé par une jeune cheffe française très talentueuse ! Bravo ! Il reste encore plein d'œuvres de Koechlin à créer en France...

[@PianistDanielFritzen]

Cela me donne envie d'apprendre quelques œuvres pour piano.

[@mimichelmi]

Et nous avons grand besoin de sa musique !

[@ashokricord1873]

Immense compositeur

[@abqcleve]

This is such a stunningly beautiful rendition of what is already one of the most gorgeous things in the literature. Thank you.

[@adriangucze9207]

I come back to this one again and again. Such a stunning piece.

[@olivierflo1]

Bravo et grand merci à Ariane Matiakh et au FRS pour nous avoir permis de redécouvrir Charles Koechlin....beaucoup de pièces orchestrales de Koechlin ne sont jamais exécutées en concert et jamais enregistrées!

Koechlin: Vers la vou’te e’toile’e. - hr Sinfonieorchester - Ariane Matriakh. I must admit to not hearing this piece of music before but it won’t be the last. The orchestra are very talented musicians and perform this so well. It’s a delight to hear the different musical instruments being played to such a high standard. It’s a wonderful experience to watch and listen, from an outsiders point of view. It’s very moving to see everyone is doing their own individual bit to make it sound wonderful. Thank You 🙏 for sharing this music with me.

Seek out his 'Seven Stars' Symphony' CD on the Capriccio label with this conductor; I think you'll enjoy it.

[@JoelLeBras]

Une oeuvre composée en 1925 en hommage à l'astronome Camille Flammarion (fondateur de l'observatoire de Juvisy), d'où son titre. Koechlin et Flammarion étaient amis et partageaient leur passion pour l'astronomie, dont le compositeur aurait pu faire sa profession avant d'opter pour la musique. Au passage, les Koechlin sont cousins des Dollfus qui ont donné à l'astronomie le célèbre Audoin, astrophysicien et aérostier, qui observa les planètes à bord d'un ballon de sa conception à 15 000 mètres d'altitude. Un caveau au cimetière du Nord à Paris porte les deux noms.

A great interpretation of a masterpiece, orchestra and conductor are magnificent.

[@grandisdavid]

Superlative performance of a magnificent piece.

[@SilvioNobre]

Thank you for this beautiful moment!

[@notaire2]

Wunderschöne und detaillierte Aufführung dieser perfekt komponierten Nachtmusik mit gut phrasierten doch perfekt vereinigten Tönen aller Instrumente. Der intelligente und geniale Dirigientin leitet das ausgezeichnete Orchester im relativ langsamen Tempo und mit sorgfältig kontrollierter Dynamik. Einfach wundervoll!

[@franckcoinchelin9862]

Le hr-S toujours au top !..

[@marcelouz1]

Celestial constellation music. Incredible it was performance and understood half century later. BARVO.

[@aplangefeld]

How lovely. Thanks!

[@brahmsflute9735]

Tolles Video, tolle Dirigentin, tolles Orchester 👍👍😊

Une œuvre de Charles Koechlin que l'on souhaiterais écouter à nouveau , un poème symphonique. "La Cité nouvelle rêve d'avenir" op 170 (1938). Merci.

[@kreuhnkohrman4948]

... reminds me of Le Bussion Ardent at times. Must be the same composer :-)

[@lowe7471]

This is really incredible music. Camera, audio always top-notch from FRS. Thank you for sharing.

[@senzarigore9088]

Superbe!

[@katfrog98]

Outstanding!

Bravo pour Ariane 👍

[@NotSoSilentPete]

Beautiful

Klingt sehr vom späten Mahler beeinflusst. Harmonik und Stimmung der 10. Sinfonie.

[@elverdugov]

I am european, but i really really enjoy the european performance.

[@ronaldbwoodall2628]

I couldn't refrain from giving this a "thumb down", but not for the fine performance, only for the soporific music, which would be apt accompaniment to watching grass grow, or as effective treatment for insomnia (which opinion I hold for nearly all of Koechlin's works I've heard). If I want to hear atmospheric music, I can rather listen to Delius or Debussy (but in this instance I didn't, because this is the FRSO performing, after all).

[@Minabezerai]

Damn Ronald, I enjoy your comments whenever I see them on classical music videos, but you're getting annoyed a lot these days aren't you? Haha, apparently Aaron Copeland said the same of RVW's pastoral 5th symphony. I rather enjoy this type of thing, but you can always click away you know? This is youtube after all. Why dislike anything at all? Cheers!

[@ronaldbwoodall2628]

@@Minabezerai I never "click away" from a work I choose to listen to on YT because I want to give it my full attention and a complete chance to form an (admittedly subjective) opinion about it. And I'm always willing to hear anything performed by the FRSO. I'm sorry that Copland disparaged one of RVW's masterpieces; I can only reply that if he had understood or appreciated it, his own music might have been imbued with a deeper and more spiritual emotional content.

[@grandisdavid]

I am afraid you completely missed the point...

[@ronaldbwoodall2628]

@@grandisdavid It just doesn't speak to me as meaningfully as Delius or Debussy, but regardless I do usually have trouble appreciating most "impressionistic" music fully; I'm sure that I'd be more enriched if, or when, I could increase my enjoyment of it.

Oh those sugary, sentimental Brits.
