The Best of Korsakov

Nikolai Andreyevich Rimsky-Korsakov (18 March [O.S. 6 March] 1844 - 21 June [O.S. 8 June] 1908) was a Russian composer, and a member of the group of composers known as The Five. He was a master of orchestration. His best-known orchestral compositions-Capriccio Espagnol, the Russian Easter Festival Overture, and the symphonic suite Scheherazade-are staples of the classical music repertoire, along with suites and excerpts from some of his 15 operas. Scheherazade is an example of his frequent use of fairy-tale and folk subjects.
Rimsky-Korsakov believed in developing a nationalistic style of classical music, as did his fellow-composer Mily Balakirev and the critic Vladimir Stasov. This style employed Russian folk song and lore along with exotic harmonic, melodic and rhythmic elements in a practice known as musical orientalism, and eschewed traditional Western compositional methods. Rimsky-Korsakov appreciated Western musical techniques after he became a professor of musical composition, harmony, and orchestration at the Saint Petersburg Conservatory in 1871. He undertook a rigorous three-year program of self-education and became a master of Western methods, incorporating them alongside the influences of Mikhail Glinka and fellow members of The Five. Rimsky-Korsakov's techniques of composition and orchestration were further enriched by his exposure to the works of Richard Wagner.
For much of his life, Rimsky-Korsakov combined his composition and teaching with a career in the Russian military-at first as an officer in the Imperial Russian Navy, then as the civilian Inspector of Naval Bands. He wrote that he developed a passion for the ocean in childhood from reading books and hearing of his older brother's exploits in the navy. This love of the sea may have influenced him to write two of his best-known orchestral works, the musical tableau Sadko (not to be confused with his later opera of the same name) and Scheherazade. As Inspector of Naval Bands, Rimsky-Korsakov expanded his knowledge of woodwind and brass playing, which enhanced his abilities in orchestration. He passed this knowledge to his students, and also posthumously through a textbook on orchestration that was completed by his son-in-law, Maximilian Steinberg.
Rimsky-Korsakov left a considerable body of original Russian nationalist compositions. He prepared works by The Five for performance, which brought them into the active classical repertoire (although there is controversy over his editing of the works of Modest Mussorgsky), and shaped a generation of younger composers and musicians during his decades as an educator. Rimsky-Korsakov is therefore considered "the main architect" of what the classical-music public considers the "Russian style" of composition.[1] His influence on younger composers was especially important, as he served as a transitional figure between the autodidactism which exemplified Glinka and The Five and professionally trained composers which would become the norm in Russia by the closing years of the 19th century. While Rimsky-Korsakov's style was based on those of Glinka, Balakirev, Hector Berlioz, Franz Liszt and, for a brief period, Wagner, he "transmitted this style directly to two generations of Russian composers" and influenced non-Russian composers including Maurice Ravel, Claude Debussy, Paul Dukas, and Ottorino Respighi.

el principio de este3 tema clasico es el cuento de las mil y una noches pero se pone en el internet, para que ahora que hay tantisima gente que no tiene gusto y apreciacion por los grandes maestros de la musica clasica y sus contenidos, tengan la oportunidad de crecer en cultura universal y de interpretacion para el oido, asi como0 para que sean canales de difusion por lo que extermino el hombre por su placer de ser mas dominante el uno del otro, y el libre comercio del capitalismo. Que disfruten y que bueno que se interesan por esta obra por demas excelente , quien lo interpreta es lo de menos, pues cada director le da la cadencia necesaria en las semicorcheas y negras que estan en el pentagrama de esta obra. lo importante es que te dejes cautiva ry crecer en el espiritu humano que llevas dentro a veces por demas desconocido, ojala lo veas tambien en video es magnifico el montaje que hacen de esta obra, las distintas compañias de clase mundial y tradicion que aun tenemos, pero aqui en mexico, solo las sinfonicas del grupo pagado, tv azteca y televisa, que lo hacen con el fin de lucro, no por cultivar al ser humano. saludos

Да, эта тема просто переворачивает все внутри! По-моему, Шевчук сказал, что Россия в культуре не рождает новых веяний, но, воспринимая чужие, наделяет их небывалой эмоциональной и художественной мощью. А посему мне лично приятно послушать итальянские арии, но по-настоящему я цепенею от второго концерта Рахманинова и вот этой увертюры к "Шехерезаде". Да мало ли чего еще можно вспомнить! Да и о веяниях можно спорить, бия оппонентов "Черным квадратом" и "Весной священной" ))))

[@laurenmcgarry4263]

Scheherazade is probably my favorite piece, but this interpretation drags a bit, in my opinion. I'm partial to Gergiev conducting the Vienna Philharmonic. He plays with the tempo more, which creates more dramatic contrast between the different voices and makes the piece even more expressive.
