Stravinski: Le sacre du printemps
Radio Filharmonisch Orkest o.l.v. Jaap van Zweden
Opgenomen/recorded: 14 november 2010 tijdens het Zondagochtend Concert in het Concertgebouw in Amsterdam.
Het Zondagochtend Concert is een concertserie van NPO Radio 4. Kijk voor meer informatie over de reeks op www.radio4.nl/hetzondagochtendconcert.
When my younger brother and I were children I used to "turn into a Frankenstein monster" at 3:40 in this video's score. As I walked stiffly toward him he'd scream and run out of the room. A few minutes later he'd be back, begging "Do it again."
Of course I've listened to this countless times since then -- I came to love the turbulence, the collisions of improbable instrumental pairings, the sublime overlays of sound, the shifts from overwhelming darkness to shimmering light. It's amazing that it never gets old.
🥲
This is one of the best performances of "The Rite of Spring" I have ever heard. Ever. When it's over you can see it in the conductor's eyes - "Yeah, baby! We f***ing NAILED IT!!!" (but, you know, in Dutch...)
that would be "Ja baby! We hebben het neukend genageld!"
@@diederikpeelen That's a super weird translation
I strongly disagree. There are several weak sections throughout the performance. Overall I give it a B+ Mehta 1978 LA Philharmonic is still the definitive recording.
@@KydenBufect Interesting. I'm an amateur (composer, enthusiast), so my critical facilities may be lacking, but honestly, to my ears this reading is exquisite - especially for a live recording without the benefit of retakes and editing. A point of agreement: the Mehta with LA is also my favorite. :-) Sometimes I listen to Fedoseev's Rite, which is just...shall we say...wacky. Definitely ideosyncratic. His reading is perhaps beyond criticism in the usual sense because of its peculiarity. You might well hate it, but I recommend it as a novelty.
@@KydenBufect Yep, a bit too fast on several parts there, losing a lot of the emotions in the proces. Too hasty! It's still OK, but defenitely not the best redition...
The conductor is Jaap van Zweden. The orchestra is the Dutch Radio Philharmonic Orchestra.
Kind regards!

De gedreven meester...de dirigent die klassieke muziek verdient...werkt even hard als het orkest...de enige weg tot een prachtige uitvoering....genieten maar
I went all to way to the Altai Mountains in Siberia just outside the Mongolian border - only to find the very same rythms among local artists. They used mostly drums, a curious local instrument which is neither winds nor percussion and throat singing. Their rythms instantly reminded me of The Rite of Spring.
Fascinating story. I am envious!
I have heard many versions of Rite of Spring, and in my opinion, this is the version I return to the most. The room has such a mellow sound. The high's are not to sharp, and the bass is warm and rounded. The conductor isn't trying to make the Symphony more striking than it was intended. The musicians are allowing room for the lead instruments and the lead characters are performing flawlessly. Love it!!!!!
We dutch pride ourselves on not being too striking. Mediocrity is our Greatest Virtue.
@@peterjanssen5901nah. You make normal look it most extreme version of cool.
Me too
@@peterjanssen5901 Unfortunately, the Dutch are overwhelmingly too often mediocre. Musically, theirs (ours) feels to be a boring country except for a few outstanding musicians and performances. Difficult to find at least acceptable concerts outside Amsterdam and perhaps Utrecht, except for an absolutely astounding concert by Kocsis and Kelemen in Arnhem when Kocsis was still alive, and one by an ageing Radu Lupu.
The perfect middle ground of tonal and atonal music. Plus an absolute mastery of orchestration. I have no doubt that if a composer from the Romantic/Classical era, or even someone earlier, like Bach, would have been astonished by the Rite of Spring.
Incredible that Stravinsky wrote this after having studied what preceded it. He turned the world upside down and set the stage for what came after. And, for the non classically oriented musicians listening, this rocks!
This just makes everything you do so much better. I brush my teeth... TO STRAVINSKY! I walk the garbage down to the dumpster, to STRAVINSKY! I make a sandwich... TO STRAVINSKY!
Not me, I only come here to jerk off. VIVE LE SACRE DU PLAISIR, VIVE STRAVINSKY. (I call my little guy STRAVINSKY, all caps.)
hells yeah son
+Kelsey Williams You rock tbh
LOL
so true!!!!!
I really like this performance because it eliminates the carelessness that often occurs in live performances, and moves on to the next movement while maintaining a sense of tension.
Appreciate the 50 horns, 70 bassoons and 500 violins !!
+Jiwpgakis
And two tubas! Don't forget about two tubas!
+Jiwpgakis But there's always 500 violins! Where are the cellos! More cellos!
+Jiwpgakis And as always, no one cares about the violas!
+Nyssa Feinstein YEAAAAH! We are powerful as fuck!
+Telmo Briones Yeeees you know it
This piece has influenced so much of modern orchestral music, especially film music. There are passages that clearly influenced John Williams and Michael Kamen. I think you could make a strong case for influence on Gershwin and Copland, too. Amazing that it's 100 years old and still sounds so fresh.
I can see a lot of influence in the music of the original Star Trek TV series.
Heck, it's influencing me right now
Of course it influenced Copland, he received tuition from one of Stravinsky's close associates and promoters, Nadia Boulanger.
@@KydenBufect The staccato chords around 5 mins could be an influence on the motif for the planet killer in The Doomsday Machine episode. What other influences?
Yes, indiana jones for instance
The most intense piece written in the last century . I´m literally exhausted and unable to listen to anything else following this piece .
The conductor, what a pro ! The orchestra, so skilllful !
It's hard to believe that orchestras can play this score so well. The time/beat is extremely difficult to keep track of. Bravo.
Stravinksy was pure genius to make a composition of this magnitude with hair raising nuances.
truly....BRAVO!!!!!

This is not a ballet. This is not orchestral repertoire. This is beyond that. This is a work of art.
Had this not been comissioned by Diaghilev & the Ballet Russes it may hot have been written.
One of the absolute pinnacles of classical music. The ability of Stravinsky to conceive of AND notate this piece never fails to astound me. I have had the privilege of performing it (7th horn/first Wagner tuba), and I can tell you from the inside that it's not nearly as easy to hold together as a great orchestra like this one makes it seem. Wonderful performance!
Genius. The conducter and the orchestra are locked in. Unbelievable, breathtaking...
My favorite compostion. The best thing ever written, pure honey to my ears. What a blessing to be able to listen to this in 2020!
Excellent! Even after 111 years still very modern and powerful.
The Rite of Spring has always been one of my favorite compositions. The scope of young musical genius is unparalleled by Stravinsky with The Rite. Its polyrythmic modernism is breathtaking as his extreme tone color and constant shocking vehemence after relatively peaceful and tranquil periods is addictively distressing. Thank you, Stravinsky, for a once in a century composition.
As fresh and as bold and exciting as it was in 1913. That is the sign of genius.
TWO BASS CLARINET! Am I in heaven ?
two timpanis also
The heaven has only one bass clarinet
Le sacre du printemps, une oeuvre immanente,
un roc éternel dans la culture occidentale.........
Une partition apprêtée pour traverser les siècles...
Merci !
Renaud
8:42 is a terribly beautiful part
This work is ,in truth , one of the greatest classic works which I have heard untill now in my life...
23:34 Those piccolos and flutes sound like a hawk diving straight down to catch its prey. Brilliant!!!
Holy moly this caught me off-guard even though I knew it was coming.
Haha yeah, although one could argue that it's all those movie/cartoon soundtrack influenced by this which educated us into associating it with this type of context
I have been searching for this masterpiece.
Just got through watching this with my little 18 month old grandson on my lap. He was mesmerized by the sounds and all the orchestral activity. So, hope for the future :)
Avoir écrit le Sacre du Printemps, ce n'est pas du talent , c'est du génie !
Cet orchestre d'Amsterdam est à la hauteur avec un chef sobre et efficace.
This composition opened the door to classical music for me. Thank you
What a tour de force for all: orchestra, conductor, and the audience.
This is probably my favorite performance of the ROS on TH-cam (I prefer Bernstein's renditions in general, however, as he gets more power out of the orchestra in certain key parts). Aside from a absolutely fantastic performance from the orchestra in general, Zweden physically expresses the incredible precision and exactness this piece demands from every part of the orchestra so perfectly. Best work of music ever written and probably will ever be written. Bravo indeed.
Have always loved this piece of music. I enjoy listening to it again and again and watch the faces of the musicians.
Nog altijd een van de beste muziekwerken uit de 20e eeuw!
8:58 the oboist misses his entrance a bit, and gets a dirty look from the first flute! haha
8:55 is more accurate
Jaap probably didn’t give it to him - he’s glued to the score and misses about half of the entrances he needs to show, actually.
Tony Smouse Tony, I believe he started 4 bars in advance and he was saved be unisono with violins...
I remember this comment from years back but didn't see it at the time. I was watching again and saw it and I thought...there's a comment about that wince!
@@frankborder Wow really? Musicians shouldnt need entrances at that level and with a famous score as this one. I really dont get why your comment has so many likes xD
I has taken a bit longer than many pieces, but Le "Sacre du Printemps" has finally found its place in my being...a beautiful and haunting work of sophistication and pathos. Jaap van Zweden is becoming one of my favorite conductors - Bravo!
first time I heard this piece I was 6 and it was in the film Fantasia (1940). Every time I listen to it again I remember the pictures of the evolution process. I love it! It´s so messy as life itself but beautiful at the same time.
I love Fantasia, but as I was a child did not like this bit so much. It was until later it kind of grew on me. I saw a program on the dutch TV where they explained why it is rarely performed and that is a rather difficult and chaotic piece of music (this is a dutch orchestra) and that is now why I love this piece of music.
Same here! I believe that movie was the introduction to my love for music. I watched it over and over as a kid. But Stravinsky was my fav. I still do tell my friends; if you ever have a child, let them watch this!
3:35 when it's late at night and you sneak into the kitchen for a midnight snack, trying to be quiet, when in reality it sounds like a herd of elephants.
I applaud that one. That was good.
This made my day lol
Xam271 😂😂😂👍🏼
woaw that is so true lmao
I love that segment
Birds in my room flying.. dears eating grass.. a real dream...
My favorite interpretation of this piece, really spot on for me!
이 곡을 이해하고 소화해내는 연주자분들이 너무 대단하다
I've easily heard over 20 different recordings of this piece and this is by far the best yet! The last few bars really drove it home! Perfect! What a great homage to a great composer!
Tough, Mean, Vicious, Beautiful
Fredrick Zinos uncompromising too
It has been a long time since I have been able to listen to "El amor brujo", by Manuel de Falla, without perceiving this piece as a Spanish extension of "Le sacre du printemps".
Superior camera-work! I really appreciate the close-ups of the musicians when they are playing their significant passages.
I like the way the conductor mainly just keeps time with his hands, no unnecessary twirling about and jumping up and down.
I'm the opposite XD when I practice conducting this alone, I jump at EVERY accent lol.
Superbe! Thank you for making it available for everyone to enjoy.
I love Leonard Bernstein and everything but this is far and away my favourite recording of the Rite.
this is the version whose end i like the most, the drum in crescendo, that flute in the silence and the final hit...and the bravo! GORGEOUS 33:30
Everything about this piece is perfect, from the melody to the performance of the maestro to the consistency of each transition. Its a story I wouldn't hesitate to listen to again and again and again. Well done !
Good job, wonderful start expression intro by the conductor. You can tell the orchestra likes and respects the conductor, otherwise you wouldn't see such expressions by the players.
World premier conducted by Pierre Monteux in Paris on 29 May 1913. Stravinsky, fearing bodily harm from the audience, escaped by a backstage window. Monteux was unperturbed and persisted, forever to be identified with the event. The "Maitre" founded a school of conducting in Hancock, Maine in 1943 that carries on his wish to mold future conductors and orchestral musicians.
Timeless. Studying the score is a pleasure. Always something new to discover.
I'm pretty sure John Williams had a listen to this before writing the soundtrack for Star Wars.
Holst, Wagner, you name it.
What I think everytime I listen to it! Even the main theme of jaws reminds me of Rite of Spring
@@rockguitar2547 in fact they're built on the exact same chords!
Can't be a coincidence
Gustav Holtz yes, Planets symphony
And that's about all....
this is a great performance expressing the primitive power, fear, and frenzy!
Always loved the piccolo trill at 9:44. Low in it's range, soft and sweet.
The best performance I’ve ever heard with excellent recording on the tonal balance of each session of instruments. But disappointed with the video shooting which was badly out of focus except the camera aiming to the conductor Zaap ⁉️🎼👍😳😱🎥
The inner-mechanisms of this piece are an enigma .
Il Novecento musicale tutto in una sola composizione! Un capolavoro assoluto!
Chi era Stravinsky?? Aiutami raccontbami un po della sua
A u to gr a fia. Grazie in anticipation per il to tempo.🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿😇😇volevo scrivere Autobiografia, sorry.......... e grazie se ne sai qualcosa piu di Google. Ciao e buona v I t a 🌱🌱🌸🌸⚘🌼💜🪱🌿🌿🌿🍒🍒🍒🍒
Most impressive rendition. And excellent recording too. Bravo!
This piece is incredible.
Quelle puissance ! Avec un orchestre très féminin ! Ce chef est démoniaque ! BRAVO
Gran orquestacion, gran maestro conductor. Bravo, Bravo Bravo.
wonderful interpretation from all orchester ! great ! thanks for sharing it !
I love this performance!!!!!
Magnificent! How awesome is that conductor btw!
10:24 goosebumps over my whole body
geweldige uitvoering, verbazingwekkend dat jaap zo rustig dirigeert, ik zou (metalminended as I am) helemaal uit mn dak gaan maar zijn weg was waarschijnlijk beter.
sc
this is brutal and delicate at the same time
Blows minimalism and all other 'modern' styles out of the water.
Your comment is both interesting and confusing to me, as 'Le Sacre' is quite often classified as a modern piece of art music; its premier was in 1914 in Paris. Initially, some listeners negatively reacted to the piece, a reaction perhaps not dissimilar to your reaction (or perhaps presumptive reaction?) to whatever it is you mean by 'minimalism' or 'modern'.
If you have not, you maybe should consider giving 'Einstein on the Beach' a listen.
So intense, I love it.
Oh my, this is *crazy!* What are the oboes doing at 7:00?! And what's with those rhythms in the timpani? First time listening to Rites of Spring. I came here to be dazzled, and I'm not disappointed! Wow! O:
Chef d’œuvre absolu de musique éternellement jeune. Bravo à l'orchestre et son chef
Proud to be a Dutchman. Fantastic!
Magnifique ! absolument !
I like to push my listening experience as far as my puny mind can go. I have in that found access to music that is incredible to hear. Much of it I won't get a chance to revisit. Le sacre du printemps is a work I heard as a boy. I have visited it uncounted times over the years. It is a work that should I see it in expanding my listening efforts compels me to interrupt my music pilgrimage and says, listen to Stravinsky again. It doesn't get any better than this work. It may get as good, but not any better. I was not disappointed in once again hearing this incredible work.
Una excelente manera de comprender el papel del Director de Orquesta aparte de la belleza de la obra de Stravinsky.
Excellent
I love how the tone dramatically changes between Acts 1 and 2, from perfectly pastoral and embodying the feeling of being in a lush forest full of life, to embodying the feeling of witnessing a ritualistic sacrifice with the horror of what's being witnessed continuing to build until the very end.
La mejor versión sin duda alguna... Y vaya que he visto casi todas... En el ambito de la dirección creo que es la mas tecnica y con mejor gestualidad formal que he visto!... SIMPLY AMAZING! 1000%
8:54 Oboe misses his entrance, look at the woman's face sitting next to him!!! haha
haha thats great, thx for spotting that!
+Ryan Edward Wise Look, if you are curious, the same woman's reaction at 16:38 in G. Gershwin's Concerto in F, performed by Marc-Andre Hamelin (piano) and Leonard Slatkin (conductor). It's funny.
Antonio B.
That's hilarious. So much enjoyment out of that one!
She didn't dig it for sure! haha
+Ryan Edward Wise hehe yeah, I hadn't noticed that. I kept thinking of it as the prelude to a viola part... :)
Masterpiece..! This man is still standing on the schoulders of gigans ...you can hear it...fresh from the bottom...So,so diciplinair dutch; but russian qua interpatation bravo..Again..!
There are a few basic rules or guidelines that you could learn via a Music Theory class or independent study. My teacher always said that in order to break the rules, you must first know what they are. Based on the "rules" I know, I would say the Stravinsky broke a few, but he knew the language of music ("rules") and thats what makes him such a great composer.
Un chef-d'oeuvre...
i love when it suddenly gets murderous
+oldnotweak I know right
+oldnotweak could you point out some part?
3:31
Yaragar
+Yaragar It really does it throughout but the first impact point is sick. I love around 14 mins when it gets crazy and the brass stabs go nuts
+oldnotweak Classic version of drop XD??
Come non apprezzare tali esecuzioni? Ottime registrazioni e senso musicale elevatissimo.Impeccabile
the orchestra plays as a perfect math-governed clockwork- but the music screams with the hypnotic rhythm of earth and roots and blood, apparently out of control.
behind Apollo there's Dionysos- but behind Dionysos could hide Apollo.
nice!
It's cogent that you sense both Apollo and Dionysos in The Rite. In one of Stravinsky's books, he writes that he only trusts the Apollonian, not the Dionysian.
An apparent rejection of what drove him in those early works. I think to some degree, his later work suffered from that.
Oh God Thanks for this music
Stravinskj é davvero un genio. Ha rivoluzionato la musica.
L'orchestra non è da m,eno.
This is alarmingly exciting.
So great! Magnificent!
Lovely performance..could not help but notice the 1st oboist's missed entrance at 8:55 and the look that the flutist gave him!!
Flawless
Many TV recordings of live performances of classical music, as we see often on TH-cam, don't have good audio quality; but this one is very good.
Only 1910s kids will remember.
If I knew about the 1910s I'd tell a nice counter joke like "nah, it was all about (...) back then, they couldn't wrap their heads about this gem.
You have the cue now use it.
Nah, it was all about dying in the Great War back then.
@@JonatasMonte Nah, we we're about that ragtime life back then.
How old are you, Manuel?
He’s probably like 17 or something, why do u wanna know?
this is THE best recording of rite of spring
merci de votre aide sur mon mémoire sur igor stravinsky
Geweldig!!! Wát een ervaring!!
