Pierre Boulez, sur Incises - Ensemble intercontemporain

[@Lechatchasseur]

Quand on commence à l'écouter,impossible d'arrêter! Sublime!

My first experience with Pierre Boulez was in my college years in which my curiosity led me to a purchase of Stravinsky’s Petrushka and the Rite of Spring or Le Sacre du Printemps with the Cleveland Orchestra. I was a wowed by the clarity and force of the CBS Masterworks recording. I listen to that recording to this day, then Bartok’s powerful Miraculous Mandarin recording floored me. From that point on Boulez was my conductor. I then proceeded to check on his own compositions and reading up on modern music. Boulez changed my life and got me going on 20th Century music. His Piano Sonatas #1-3 and Le Marteau Sans Maître, his music was difficult. But after continuous listening it opened my mind and increased my spatial intelligence. Later his compositions Repons and Sur Incises were fantastic. Boulez’s music will live on into the 22nd Century. He will be missed.

[@spushor]

I could listen to sur incises all days, than repons the rest of day, Pierre produced some real master pieces and Ensemble intercontemporain is precise and incredible.

[@tylerknowlton]

Different strokes for different folks. To me it's mostly cerebral music and only mildly enjoyable.

[@MissJessyeNorman]

*masterpieces, it's a single word ;)

[@MIDIPipe]

Me too Maestro. Night and Day.

[@nonenoneonenonenone]

@@tylerknowlton Not even that. It's puzzle-making with sound, not music at all. His conducting is only slightly better. He should have been a mathemetician. He is the ne plus ultra of the opposite of music.

[@jimit.4220]

​@@nonenoneonenonenone how about you let people enjoy the music they want. To me boulez's works are incredibly well made and full of emotion. If you don't like it, just don't listen to it.

Beauté à l'etat pur. Une musique qui nourrit l'esprit et ne fatigue jamais.

Boulez, o mestre maior da contemporaneidade e inspiração de muitos músicos em mais uma peça fantástica. Poucas orquestras ou grupos instrumentais estão aptos a interpretar "sur Incisses".

[@lourensfaul4532]

I really enjoyed this flashback to atonality. In those pre digital days I also dabbled in non tonal composition: Performed at JCE my electronic ballet Paradise Lost for Geoffrey Sutherland's Kinetica dance group drew this comment from Angus Rose in the Sunday times on 26 Augus1973: "Paradise Lost", with choreography by Geoffrey Sutherland , acting out the story against electronic aural complexities devised by Dr Lourens Faul. These ingenious and atmospheric sounds that roar, thunder, rattle, whine, twitter, sigh and very nearly sing are surprisingly apt, especially in the animal coughs and gentle roars. When Heaven, complete with silvery Deity and angels is revealed there is almost echoing harmony of liturgical chanting - and when the action moves to Hades it really sounds like Hell! (And this recording was made using home recorders, some borrowed from neighbours!)" . This was after workshops with Henk Badings at the SABC. I collaged "Doedelmadossies" and "Nou skryf ek malkopwoorde" (Now I'm writing madheadwords ) based on a Boerneef poem. My one effort at dodecaphony was based on Blum's poem "Man wat mal word". ("Man growing mad")At the only understandable stanza: "En dit is die Liefde" (and this love) the row became tonal with a perfect cadence. The final words: "Woknakwyf" had the pianist attacking the piano fff with both arms .

[@boonrutsirirattanapan100]

Very Excite. This version.

[@9827george]

Je préfère quelque peu cela à la version enrégistré par Boulez sur CD! C'est plus nuancé dans la ligne.

"Pas de fuite en avant, s'il vous plaît: une des marques les plus insignes de la déroute. Aller jusqu'à la chair nue de l'émotion, disait Debussy; je dirai: aller jusqu'à la chair nue de l'évidence." Pierre Boulez (1963)

[@richardrickford3028]

Boulez will I think be like Mahler. More known as a conductor when alive but more and more revered as a composer when dead.

[@nonenoneonenonenone]

He will be very quickly forgotten, as with Webern, except in the most abstruse, academic circles, with musicians who cannot play real music.

[@reidwhitton6248]

​@@nonenoneonenonenone Webern hasn't been forgotten. And I suspect he won't be anytime soon.

[@luisjackson924]

Sin saber escribir ni leer música, he logrado crear obras similares a estas. Dentro de un estilo mas futurista. Desconocía hasta el día de hoy a este Maestro. Seguiré entonces creando, sabiendo que no soy el único en este estilo que para muchos es locura. Desde Chile un cordial saludo.

[@michaeltt3232]

Amazing man. After the primal anger went away he spent a bit too much time looking at aquaria. His generosity, doctrinaire curiosity, scrupulous devotion did only good things. But let us remember they were not the only good things to do.

[@didierschein8515]

Une oeuvre abrupte, contrastée; pleine de rythme et de résonnances. Un peu trop longue à mon goût, mais c'est peut-être le problème des works in progress. Et du pur Boulez, qui est toujours resté l'artisan furieux qu'il était au début.

What is music supposed to sound like? Or better yet, what is music and what is it supposed to do?

[@gentle_goy23432]

Music is the organization of sounds according to a certain principle of pitch. (I prefer tempered tuning, but some people go beyond it.) Previously, I would have said that music is also characterized by clear form, harmony and melody. But this is not always the case, especially in the last 120 years. Simply put, music is an organization of sounds that cannot be classified as noise. But noise is sometimes used intentionally in music, or to create a feeling of chaos or disorder. The second is purely subjective. Some might say that Richard Strauss's music is noise. Or Boulez’s music is not music at all. And music doesn’t owe anyone anything. Only if a collection of sounds wants to be called music, it must be organized.

[@stephenjablonsky1941]

@@gentle_goy23432 Music is organized sound and beauty is in the ear of the beholder.

[@gentle_goy23432]

I think Mozart would not have liked the music of many composers after him. I think he would call much of Beethoven's 9th symphony or Mahler's 8th symphony noise and cacophony. And by the way, for me this is wonderful music. I was pleasantly surprised to hear this. I'm a degenerate, lol. Well, OK.

Such a contemptuous and bigoted response, which tells us only about your lack of character. If you don’t like the music, provide some substantive reasons not insults.
