His music was always simple, immediately understandable, with beautiful melodic inventions, coupled with a no less exceptional sense of theater and dramatic talent. Moniuszko was the first to forge an original national style, a synthesis of what is essentially Polish with the great European traditions. Having received a solid professional training in Warsaw and Berlin at the Singakademie, he was soon able to attract attention to his works - but despite short stays in Paris, Weimar and St. Petersburg, he spent his entire life in Poland, where, between Vilnius and Warsaw, he carried out an intense activity as a composer, performer (conductor and organist) and teacher. During the 18 years he spent in Vilnius - a Lithuanian city of inestimable importance for Polish culture - he composed mainly operettas (among them Night in the Apennines and The New Don Quixote, based on the comedies of Aleksander Fredro), a vast series of melodies as well as sacred music (masses and litanies). But his most important triumphs were in Warsaw, thanks to his lyrical works. The series began in 1858 with the premiere of Halka, which led to his appointment as principal conductor and director of the Warsaw Opera, and later as professor of harmony and counterpoint at the city's Musical Institute. After Halka came other stage works, including The Countess and especially The Haunted Mansion, which assured his immortality. Between 1861 and 1862 Moniuszko went to Paris for a second time to have his works performed there. There he met Rossini and Auber - unfortunately, despite their support and the warm welcome of the Opera management, their promises to perform Halka and The Countess were not fulfilled. Apart from his operas, Moniuszko left more than 400 songs, 6 cantatas, 4 masses, including a Requiem, 3 ballets, several symphonic works, several piano pieces and the two string quartets. The latter date from his years of study in Berlin, between 1837 and 1839. The form is impeccable, and the original musical ideas are obviously inspired by Polish folk music. In the Finale of Quartet No. 1, entitled "Un ballo campestre e sue consequenze", for example, the motif of the Hajduk, a traditional Polish dance, appears, as well as a clear reminiscence of Chopin's Concerto in F minor. The quartet is dedicated to Jozef Elsner, Chopin's teacher. The two quartets were not published until 1909, more than thirty years after the death of their author.

Sehr zauberhafte Musik.

[@notaire2]

Wunderschöne und spannende Interpretation dieser beiden melodischen und perfekt komponierten Streichquartette in verschiedenen Tempi mit seidigen doch gut phrasierten Tönen beider Violinen, mildem Ton der Bratsche und tiefem Ton des Violoncellos. Die intime und perfekt entsprechende Miteinanderwirkung zwischen den vier Virtuosen ist wahrhaft ergreifend. Wunderbar und atemberaubend zugleich!

[@fransmeersman2334]

A very fine surprise, these beautiful romantic string quartets. Never heard before so a big thank you !

[@breatheashaway]

Half an hour of this music does more for me than 100 hours of psychoanalysis. 🙂

[@xxsaruman82xx87]

Wow! Just wow!

[@jesustovar2549]

I already heard of Stanislaw Moniuszko and I read that it was an important composer from early polish romanticism along with Chopin, but I think I never heard of work of him before, thanks for presenting the work of this underrated composer, these are beautiful string quartets.

[@BytomGirl]

He is not underrated at all, his operas have been performed and loved in Poland to this day and Halka, most loved one is known quite well outside Poland. Also find his Fairy Tale conducted by Antoni Wit, it's wonderful

C'est Stanislaw Moniuszko (1819-1872) qui fut, après Chopin, le compositeur polonais le plus important au XIXe siècle. Il passa à la postérité comme créateur de l'opéra national. Sa musique fut toujours simple, immédiatement compréhensible, de belles inventions mélodiques, doublée d'un non moins exceptionnel sens du théâtre et talent dramatique. Moniuszko fut le premier à forger un style national original, synthèse de ce qui est essentiellement polonais, avec les grandes traditions européennes. Ayant reçu une solide formation professionnelle à Varsovie et à Berlin, à la Singakademie, il put vite attirer l'attention sur ses oeuvres -mais, malgré de courts séjours à Paris, Weimar et Saint-Pétersbourg, il passa toute sa vie en Pologne où, entre Vilnius et Varsovie, il mena une intense activité de compositeur, interprète (chef d'orchestre et organiste) et pédagogue. Durant les 18 années passées à Vilnius - ville lithuanienne dont l'importance pour la culture polonaise est inestimable - il composa principalement des opérettes (entre autres Nuit dans les Apennins et Le Nouveau Don Quichotte, sur les comédies d'Aleksander Fredro), une vaste série de mélodies ainsi que de la musique sacrée (messes et litanies). Mais ses triomphes les plus importants, il allait les remporter à Varsovie, grâce à ses œuvres lyriques. La série s'ouvre en 1858, avec la création de Halka, qui lui permit d'être nommé chef d'orchestre principal et directeur de l'Opéra de Varsovie, ainsi que, plus tard, professeur d'harmonie et du contrepoint à l'Institut Musical de la ville. Après Halka viennent d'autres oeuvres scéniques, dont La Comtesse et tout particulièrement Le Manoir Hanté, qui assura son immortalité. Entre 1861 et 1862 Moniuszko se rend pour une seconde fois à Paris afin d’y faire représenter ses oeuvres. Il y rencontre Rossini et Auber - malheureusement, malgré leur appui et l'accueil bienveillant de la direction de l'Opéra, les promesses de faire représenter Halka et La Comtesse n'aboutissent pas. En dehors de ses opéras, Moniuszko laissa plus de 400 mélodies, 6 cantates, 4 messes, dont un Requiem, 3 ballets, plusieurs oeuvres symphoniques, plusieurs pièces pour piano et les deux quatuors à cordes. Ces derniers datent de ses années d'études à Berlin, entre 1837 et 1839. La forme est impeccable, et les idées musicales originales sont inspirées évidemment de la musique populaire polonaise. Dans le Finale du Quatuor No. 1, intitulé "Un ballo campestre e sue consequenze" apparaît par exemple le motif du Hajduk, danse traditionnelle polonaise, et une fort transparente réminiscence du Concerto en fa mineur de Chopin. Le quatuor est par ailleurs dédié à Jozef Elsner, professeur de Chopin. Les deux quatuors ne furent publiés qu'en 1909, plus de trente ans après la mort de leur auteur. 🔊 FOLLOW US on SPOTIFY (Profil: CMRR) : spoti.fi/3016eVr 🔊 Download CMRR's recordings in High fidelity audio (QOBUZ) : bit.ly/370zcMg ❤ If you like CM//RR content, please consider membership at our Patreon page.
