Symphonic Poem "Kalina Krasnaya" (1975) for orchestra and a woman's voice.
In memory of Vasily Shukshin
USSR State Symphony Orchestra conducted by Yevgeny Svetlanov
Kalina Krasnaya (The Red Guelder-Rose, or The Red Snowball Tree) was written in memory of the film director, writer, and actor Vasily Shukshin (1929-1974) in 1975, a year after his early death at 45, and is named after his final film of the same name. It quotes a few themes, including the popular song "Kalina Krasnaya" (the film's title may be also from this song), as well as the Dies Irae theme.
Très belle pièce de musique ! On sent des touches rythmiques très modernes !
Les influences de Stravinsky et de Respighi sont peut-être présentes mais restent à valider !
Merci !
😊😊😊
What a glorious piece of music. You would never think this was written in the seventies. I've now heard a few of Yevgeny Svetlanov compositions and am very impressed. Thankyou for uploading this.
Che bello!!!
Это одно из самых сильных произведений, что я слышала
Очень сильное произведение!!! Потрясающе, браво!!!
It's gorgeous. I love the solemn opening.
Thank you very much for the musicscore orchestra. A real discover and pleasure to read
Thank you for uploading. Most people know Svetlanov as a conductor but not as a composer (and a really high caliber composer at that!).
The final song is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard. Thank you for uploading this.
I have a great admiration for Svetlanov not only as a conductor but as a composer. Thank you so much for posting this very rare work. It's wonderful music. I must explore more on your excellent channel.
Большoe спасибо Bartje ,слушаю впервые,очарована.
This is spectacular. Wow!
12:26 Something you definitely don't expect from this piece.
This piece might seem fragmentary or even eclectic, but I found that it starts working perfectly well if I imagine it as a commemoration ceremony or rite, as a significant proceeding of some sort.
Совершенно потрясающе!
The opening of this piece invokes a sense of nostalgia.
The opening is exquisite :)
До слёз. Очень красивое и характерное для России звучание😍😍❤️❤️🔥🔥
Great work! 🌹💕
God bless you🌠☘️
10:55 solo horn is incredible
Played with famous russian Vibtato (French Horn usually is not played vibrato except old Russian and old French school)
great!
genius...

this is spirituality
Another thing to mention is that the main theme, from the song "Kalina Krasnaya", is by the composer Jan Frenkel. Here is a video of the composer performing the song: th-cam.com/video/bLzvJ5mH4_0/w-d-xo.html
Also, for anyone interested, this is the film by Shukshin from which the piece derives its name: th-cam.com/video/MYmi--Kot-k/w-d-xo.html. It's a beautiful film.
Semionov is a rather unique composer, writing for the accordion in classical style.
To avoid any confusion, just consider the fact that Yan Frenkel composed the song "Kalina Krasnaya" in 1963. As for Vyacheslav Semyonov, his instrumental piece for bayan (accordion) and orchestra was composed 13 years later, in 1976, as a variation on the Frenkel's theme. Actually, the title of Semeonov's instrumental piece is "Fantasy on the theme of "Kalina Krasnaya" by Frenkel".
As a matter of fact, the lyrics from the Frenkel's "Kalina Krasnaya" are borrowed from Russian folklore, and the song got so popular, so widely known and loved and sung by people at any home, on any occasion, any celebration that it has really become a part of Russian musical culture. Perhaps, this can explain why Svetlanov was completely unaware that the song was composed by Frenkel (and even felt ashamed, since he included the full Frenkel's theme in his symphony). Frenkel was surprised but proud, indeed. Well, in any case, we are grateful to Svetlanov for this fascinating music.
@@Natalia.Isayeva.Poesia Thank you for this interesting information! I had actually originally written that Mr. Frenkel had composed the song, but saw somewhere else that Semyonov was the composer; I guess the info was wrong.
I was also unaware of the fact that Svetlanov didn't realize that the "Kalina Krasnaya" song was a Soviet piece and not an old folk song, and it's very interesting to know how Svetlanov and Frenkel reacted to this fact; I'm glad to hear Frenkel liked the result. It's easy to see how, as a non-Russian, one can confuse "Kalina Krasnaya" for a genuine folk song, especially since information about such songs rarely tells you who actually wrote them, and when they were written. I am, like you said, still grateful to Svetlanov for composing this brilliant piece, along with all his other wonderful music.
@@Natalia.Isayeva.Poesia There are three basic genres of music, classical, folk, and popular. The boundaries between the three are very sharply drawn in America, but in Russia, they are so blurred that the styles often get confused.
@@Natalia.Isayeva.PoesiaThank you for this information about the song...I'm investigating it after hearing the lovely Beloe Zlato version- I was confused when I saw this dated '1975' as there's a black and white clip on TH-cam of a female quartet performing it which looks to be from the early 60s...
He seems to be fascinated by "Dies irae" like Rachmaninov...
I don't think he was "fascinated". It is a composition dedicated to the memory of a recently deceased person. Otherwise, one would not expect the combination of the two themes.
Калина красная, дорога долгоя
4:53 best part. The piece as a whole feels a bit mixed together but has very good parts. Don't fancy the end tho.
To me this seems like a soundtrack. Would be interesting to know if it had anything to do with the film.
I agree that it sounds like excerpts from a film score.
i dont mean to be so offtopic but does any of you know a tool to get back into an Instagram account??
I somehow forgot the login password. I love any tips you can give me

@@bartjebartmans The only connection it has to the film (and Shukshin's tale, on which the film is based) is the title. Shukshin wanted to use the piece in his film, but could not do this because he could not afford to buy the rights, and had to substitute it with another piece that was no longer copyrighted. Svetlanov has nothing to do with the film's soundtrack: it was written by somebody else. Svetlanov's musical language in general has some echos to somewhat "folksy" music language of many Soviet films of his time, but if you pay attention, the orchestral figurations in the fast parts are already an announcement of the Dies irae, which you can recognise as such only in hindsight. This symphonic poem was used by Soviet choreographer Andrey Petrov as the music score (or, at least, part of it) for his ballet based on Shukshin's tale and/or film.
👌
안녕하세요!
Almost sounds like a theremin at the end.
Anyone knows what year it was recorded?
Where can I get the score??
12:31 What the Hell?
Is it possible Svetlanov got stuck in a tonal time machine a hundred years ago?
Светланов делал в музыке то, что считал нужным. Творец.
Yes, and isn't it great?
@@slothostpUL это музыка на любителя. Мне больше нравится Скрябин . Вместе с тем я очень уважительно отношусь к Светланову.
И как к дирижеру и как к композитору.
@@slothostpUL It is very user friendly and very Russian.
You can say the same of just about every soviet composer. The whole musical culture of the USSR was in what you call 'a tonal time machine'. Not a bad thing at all, though. Sometimes people's ears need some relief from Messiaenean, Schoenbergian and late-Scriabianian noise.
Rachmaninoff meets Shostakovich meets fifth-rate film
meets trivial comment.
@@bartjebartmansYes, and meets the fifth-rate man. I've seen many european and american films, and I can say that soviet films are special.
This piece is great!
I hear that Steely Dan need another positive.
