Mussorgsky: Pictures at an exhibition ( Full ) - BPO / Karajan*

[@tom2207]

I have had the grand pleasure of performing this piece with an orchestra. It is, truly, one of the greatest pieces ever written.

[@livialivia1079]

Which one was your favorite and why?

[@tom2207]

@livialivia1079 ​ Thank you for your question. I really enjoyed playing "Ballet of the Chicks in their Shells". It was light, uplifting, and a technical challenge because of the interplay with the winds that cumulated in a central melody. As you know, the "Promenades" changed as the visitor progressed through the Exhibit. "The Great Gate of Kiev" gave me goose bumps because of its grand excitement! (Sorry, more than one movement.) What a piece! WHAT A PIECE!

[@livialivia1079]

@@tom2207 Currently at The Great Gate of Kiev, such a grandiose, noble one :) it's my third favorite after The Old Castle and Bydlo. The Promenade became so iconic that a parody duo, Voga-Turnovszky, from Hungary used it as an intro to one of their albums, this is where I first heard it, then slowly figured out the rest. May I ask what instrument you play on?

[@tom2207]

@@livialivia1079 Sure! I was Principal Clarinet in our orchestra for 48 years. Maybe that's why I thought the Ballet was my favorite!?? Sorry, are you at the Gate now? I've never been there, but like most things in Europe, what a Grandiose place, indeed!

I had a copy of Pictures at an Exhibition on CD, having replaced a copy on Cassette. The recording had sounds of someone coughing through out the performance.

A masterly meeting of three brilliant musical minds-Mussorgsky, Ravel, and Karajan. Karajan’s control is breathtaking. Every tempo, every dynamic note-perfect. You will never hear this piece performed better.

[@juliecrane9647]

@@jodypalm303 When our 88 yo mom passed last August (14 yrs after my dad), the only things my 4 bros and I tugged over were their albums....jazz, swing, Broadway show albums, old school country, rock and roll (hard and soft), folk music and gospel. Mom was a huge CCR fan and we cleaned house top to bottom every Saturday as music blared from huge speakers (part of a hi-fi system dad made from a radio shack "kit". They bought albums for us, (one of the few things we didn't have to use our money for).Three favs of mine were JC Superstar,. Godspell and Glenn Campbell's Gentle on my Mind album. We also each played in the school band. I played flute (no maestro here) Two oldest played trumpet and the two youngest the sax. Two of us played classical guitar and 3 boys had pretty good voices. Mom, one brother and I couldn't carry a tune in a bucket 😂. Still can't. Later, our girls joined in and were pretty damn good with one on piano. We didn't do shows but just enjoyed jamming some together and ....pushed back furniture makes an awesome dance floor. This album was a favorite. Pretty sure we had 3 different symphonies on these 3 albums. This video showcases the art pieces the best I think. We listened to Camelot, Mary Poppins and Porgy and Bess. Summertime still moves me to tears. My last outing with dad was seeing Camelot. A live musical in our mid-sized city's concert hall. It starred Robert Goulet as the old king...no longer playing the young and handsome prince. When mom passed away my oldest bro mused that our parents likely were dancing to Fly Me to the Moon in the great beyond. Dad crooning along. I pictured each of us leaving this old 🌎 with mom saying, "Damn they got here a little soon don't ya think Charlie"? And Dad saying "It's been almost 70 yrs since we had the floor to ourselves"! We laughed bc it would be so.....Them. My folks gave us much on our paths to loving music in peace and joy. Did I mention my 3 girls' dad is musically gifted ? I am now in case you wondered 😂. Our group is bigger when we gather now. Five grands make us almost a choir with more dishes to wash. I've no shame as I brag on them. None. 😂 Miss my mom and dad. Thnx for your post Jody. It brought beautiful memories. Tonight, my bedroom silent as I drift off to sleep....perhaps hearing Empty Chairs at Empty Tables. We will be awesome of course 😊😌😌. 🎺🎷🎹🎉🪕🎸🎶🎶🎼🕺💃👯All thanks to our teachers on both sides of our hi-fi speakers.

[@Weesel71]

Have you heard the Stokowski interpretation?

[@phoenixshade3]

I respectfully disagree. Karajan doesn't have enough "Romantic" in him to conduct late Romantic pieces. Classical period and Baroque, he's fine, but as soon as you add Romantic tempo variation and tone color, I would almost rather hear a deaf man's interpretation... Harsh and unpopular opinion, perhaps, but if I see a Karajan recording of anything post-1850, my impulse is to run away and plug my ears.

[@nicolasdelaforge7420]

I took up your challenge and listened to the other recordings offered on youtube, including ones using Stokowski's orchestration. There is NONE better than this Karajan recording. I might find other recordings yet. So far, none comes close to making such a statement of it.

[@nicolasdelaforge7420]

I took up your challenge and listened to all the versions available on youtube, including Stokowski's orchestration. All of them fade into the distance and out of sight and hearing next to Karajan here. Karajan is the standard. Ravel's orchestration is so much more imaginative too.

У музыки нет национальности.

[@Маск-п3я]

@@СергейТищенко-у9л как раз у такой музыки есть национальность. И это прекрасно. Можно буквально услышать русскую душу в этой музыке, так же можно сказать и про прекрасную музыку из других стран.

Oh God above, the Ukrainian in me wants to see Kiev so much when I hear this sing! It is possible to long for something you've never seen before, just by listening to someone's musical interpretation of it. Great gate of Kiev forever! When I at last walk though you I will hear this music!

[@phoenixshade3]

Unfortunately, the gate which inspired the composition was never built. You may indeed walk through a gate in Kiev one day, but it will not be this one.

[@tetyanas4026]

⁠@@phoenixshade3unfortunately for who? Thank goodness the Bogatyr Gate was never build. Hartmann’s design has kokoshnik style decoration over the main arc (see the picture). It’s a travesty. People in Kiev never wore kokoshnik. It’s moscovites’ headdress.

one of the best versions ever... the other versions are usually a WAY too fast... almost staccato

[@tylerboltenhouse5442]

If only the trumpet fanfare int the beginning were stronger, it would be almost perfect

HERMOSO,SUBLIME Y MAJESTUOSO

[@horaciomendez7133]

Bellisima obra, hace años que no la había vuelto a escuchar.

Such moving beauty- The Old Castle is my fav. Yet the composer was widely criticized during his lifetime- and his final years did not go well for him.

[@Pattamatt1998]

It really is a shame, Mussorgsky was such a fantastic composer, he deserved so much more success and recognition than he got in his lifetime.
