Not really though, Shostakovich was never in any significant danger even at the height of the Purge. Worst thing that actually happened to him is that he got cancelled a couple of time.
We had rehearsals for this piece at nights, and when we did the third movement i would get a bit sleepy if I had a lot of stuff going on in classes that day and the conductor wasn't having the violins play a lot lol.
A pet peeve of mine is when people play Shostakovich too slowly. It's such a driving, rhythmic style of music that when you hear an orchestra just plod through it it kills the soul just a little. This level of intensity is how the music is meant to be played!
Yeah! Film scores are usually heavily inspired by classical music, especially in classic films. If you want to know more, look up how John Williams (the Star Wars music guy) used classical music in his film work. If you love music, you'll love it. It's honestly pretty dope
@@MarshMallowMarauder And John Williams isn't the only one who was heavily inspired by 19-20th century classical music. Basil Polerdouris, James Horner, Dennis McCarthy, Howard Shore and Jerry Goldsmith would be a a few other notable examples.
I was listening to this yesterday. Im so obsessed. This symphony was actually supposed to be Shostakovich's representation of Stalin in music. Its terryfing!! (ironically Stalin took this as a compliment hehe). Great clip ❤
I remember playing this really solidified my love for classical music. I was first chair clarinet in the 8th grade and was invited to play 2nd clarinet at our local high school’s symphony orchestra and this was the last piece of the performance. I remember as soon as I heard the beginning of this piece, I was in love with classical music. All we ever did in middle school were these forgettable pieces that were supposed to be easy and anyone can play. This was my first real challenge and I will never forget that
Qué maravilla, el espíritu indomable ruso predomina en toda la sinfonía. Es todo un derroche de armonía y orquestación. Es la historia rusa que pasó por la cabeza de Shostakovich, y salió en una cascada incontenible de emoción y colorido.
Эту симфонию создал Шостоков в блокадном Ленинграде. Он хотел быть добровольцем, но ему отказали, тогда он пошёл в пожарники. На его нотаз было можно увидеть ПТ, что означало Пожарная Тревога. Его эвакуировали в 42, что позволило дописать. Было очень трудно найти музыкантов, приходилась брать из тыла, фронта, города. Те кто из города(Ленинград) не могли ходить от голода, но они всё равно играли, что позволило появиться на свет 42. Из 2 500 000 население Ленинграда осталось живых меньше 500 000, и только 2% были убиты от бомб, остальные от голода, всего блакада шла 872 дня с 8 сентября 1941 по 27 января 1944.
This piece sounds really good, the drums really add a lot to it
Glad that you like it!
The Shosty 5th: The Symphony That Saved Its Composer's Life!!
You are exactly right. The Soviet government was so dang strict back then.
@@MorganWasHere3 current one still strict
@@GentlemanlyOtter yeah, but it doesn’t even compare to shostakovichs time.

@@kapitankapital6580 yes, but if he didn’t write this symphony, he would have been at a much higher risk of death.
Bravo ! That TEMPO will wake up the snoozers !!
Indeed😄

Fabulously played! Amazing conductor Semyon Bychkov!
Thank you! 😊
@@WDRKlassik You are welcome.
Shostakovich's Symphony 5 is my favourite one. This performance is awesome... I want the full performance please!
Thank you! 🤗

Shostakovich's music is so unusual and satisfying ❤❤❤
😊
Composers of the late 19th and early 20th century basically already made movie soundtracks😊

Shosty literally did compose music just for film 🎥 🎞 🎶
When I played this fourth movement, I couldn't help but notice some parts sounded like beautiful tracks from movies.
Outstanding performance, I played this in my regional orchestra for school but nothing as great as this
Thank you, we appreciate it🙏

Love that momentum
MAGNIFIC Sostakovici
Thank you!
Outstanding.
Thank you 🥰
Am I the only one who would pay the hell out of a movie with this song in it(i would buy the whole budget)
'Troy' plagiarises the 5th a lot.
I can’t stop watching
Bravo!!
Thank you! ❤
Bychkoff Bravo!!!!
Bravo! 👏
Amazing, 👏
Thank you 🤗
You have to listening to the trombone concerto of Rimsky Korsakov.
Yes!

Only true musicians left. Everything now is digitized.

Having 1996 Phantom Regiment flashbacks.
METAL!
ВЕЛИКОЛЕПНО потрясающе
Thank you 🤗
Suena bastante bien.
👍✔🎶
Shout out to the camera crew
😄
I need informations about this interpretation
In solviet Russia, orchestra plays you
🎺🎻🥁🔊
Underrated comment. Gotta ride that Shosta lightning!
Anyone have link to full video?
Hi, Gegs! You can find the full symphony here: th-cam.com/video/YWwssdM6BVY/w-d-xo.html
Shostakovich would stick his head above Prokofiev and Stravinsky if he had free will to write music completely.
Where can we find the rest?

I find Shostakovich's 8th quartet more emotional. Compared to it this piece seems a little hollow.
The 8th quartet (which could also be full string orchestra) is outstanding!!
Dudamel's uncle is conducting.
Bychkov is a heck of a lot better than Dudamel.

You stopped before the best part :(

what movment is this
????????????????????
Movement 4

Wait, John Williams ?! 😂
🥵
Ударник и дирижёр делают вид, что они сумасшедшие
Это настоящая страсть!
Pure Intensity of what ? Please …
Well, there's many ways to find intensity in Shoshakovich's symphonies!
I prefer it faster
Way too fast. Shostakovich wrote in specific metronome markings. The accel isn’t as effective if you just start out blazing
Shostakovich was lucky that Stalin liked his music because Stalin killed any composer he didn't like!!
Universe and earth and humans and music - everything is definitely by creation, not by random blind evolution.
The true God's name is Jehovah.
Fast
Diese kurzen Videos nerven total....
Muss man ja nicht anschauen. Auf unserem YT-Kanal gibt's ziemlich viele Stücke in voller Länge, da ist hoffentlich für jede:n etwas dabei. :)
Code geass??😂😂😂
This is NOT Zarathustra
But it has the timpani, it MUST be. 🤪
Bravo! 👏
Danke!
