Stravinsky: "The Firebird" Suite (1919 version) (with Score)

[@krisfawcett6119]

When I was a girl of seven or eight, I had a radio with headphones that I listened to as I fell asleep. One night I happened upon the local classical music station that was playing this music. I didn't know anything about it, but I thought it was the most beautiful and magical thing I'd ever heard. For years I wondered about it... now, after 60+ years, the memory comes back to me.

[@j00451]

The Finale means so much to me: achievement, courage, dignity, celebration, and perhaps most simply, truth. More than these mere words can express.

[@bullshitman155]

Try the first movement of Martinů's first symphony, it has similar vibes near the end

[@feanorian21maglor38]

Just here after coming home from a concert seeing it performed. I find it much more interesting when you see the musicians playing their parts than just listening. Such a beautiful piece of music. So many haunting melodies.

[@dovesong946]

totally agree! i love your name, by the way :)

[@Whatismusic123]

When the "music" is so uninteresting and full of random nonsense that looking at the musicians is more entertaining.

I performed this once and remembered feeling like we sent that last note into outer space. As if Stravinsky was giving earth a voice that said I AM! I've also performed Petrushka and The Rite of Spring, but this one.

[@cellistry]

Oregon Sym was so fortunate to have James DePriest as conductor. Under his graceful direction, the orchestra produced a crystal clear sound with an interpretation that I dare say matches the composer's intentions.

[@JamesMeissnertbn]

I listened to the same symphony play this piece live years after this recording and it is truly magical.

If anyone could tell me, are the 32nd notes in the xylophone part at 11:40 played as a glisando or as single stroke sticking? I need to know for an audition, thanks!

[@annulrsolformrkelse4023]

I'm no percussionist, but they sound like a glissando to me. The piano has a glissando as well, so that would make sense. The last note needs to be struck individually though, of course.

[@andreauribe6454]

Is a faster scale from e to e sounds glissando

[@nicholasfox966]

Glissando. Too fast for single sticking.

[@hargosus]

It is a legato and, I think, a legato can only be played on tuned percussion by glissando, because the length of the sound created by these instruments can not be controlled by the played, especially the xylophone that is like the harp or pizzicato.

3:35 there's an extra eighth beat in the cello part. I think the E isn't supposed to be a dotted quarter note.
