Nikolai Myaskovsky was regarded as the Father of the Soviet Symphony and he was respected as such by all younger composers, including his young “genius” friend Sergei Prokofiev. His Symphony No. 22 or “Symphony-Ballad” was composed in the first months of combat far away in Tblisi: It swings between moments of melancholy, sadness and heroism.
Nikolai Myaskovsky era considerado como el Padre de la Sinfonía Soviética y era respetado como tal por compositores más jóvenes incluido su joven amigo genio Sergei Prokofiev. Su Sinfonía No. 22 o “Balada-Sinfonía” fue compuesta en los primeros meses de combate pero lejos en Tiblisi: Ésta pasa entre momentos de melancolía, tristeza y heroísmo.

It is entirely incomprehensible that Myaskovsky is so forgotten.
Agree. this is the first time i've ever heard of this guy and I'm 2 mins into this and it's great.
Why was this not recommended to me like years ago?
More for a very long time I hope but it is true that our "radios chapel" broadcast too often recognized songwriters who freeze our daily life ..... ;-(
watch "60 best soviet composers"
true
Reminds me of a certain American composer from the 1950's whose music had no continuity -- the music just rolls along making just making sounds and going from nowhere to some other nowhere!!! Same here! It has no heart or brain!
Aunque quizás Shostakovich y Prokofiev, sean la punta de lanza de los compositores soviéticos, Miakovsky también es un compositor excelso.
Ein genialer Komponist, ich liebe alle seine Sinfonien und diese ganz besonders.
He wrote this composition in Georgia, Tbilisi in 1941
Ecouter Nikolai Myaskovsky c'est abolir le déferlement de bruits et d'images du quotidien pour entrouvrir l'espace d'un ailleurs où la contingence et la représentation cèdent la place à l'immatérialité du sensible. Une fois refermée la porte sur l'agitation du monde, un silence sous-jacent s'installe, une lenteur saisit, prélude à une dilatation de la perception et de la conscience. Dans le courant du fleuve des notes qui nous traverse, le pouvoir expressif de l'architecture sonore rompt avec toute forme de transcription du réel pour s'attacher à l'expression d'un univers impalpable. Couleurs, composition, rythme, constituent un langage qui donne véritablement voix à l'exaltation !
C'est très bien décrit !
c'est joli je veux pas casser le délire mais le sensible par définition c'est matériel.. et puis en terme de contingence une symphonie qui fait écho à la Grande Guerre Patriotique ça se pose là.
C'est fou comme les idéalistes vident le monde de leur substance
@@prenom5049 Heu... Je suis pas idéaliste ; juste un exercice de style qui va à l'encontre de tous les analphabètes qui déposent fastidieusement leurs commentaires méphitiques et illisibles sur cette plate forme dans laquelle il y a à boire et à manger comme le formule souvent maladroitement l'internaute lambda ;)
@@MegaCirse ça va à l'encontre de rien, ça complète ;) je vois ça comme une augmentation
Myaskovsky's music is never less than accomplished and tuneful. This symphony is positively radiant, full of great tunes and Prokofievian (?) lyricism. Hard to imagine it was written during the horrors of WW2. I find no fault with the performance and recording. Thanks for the post !
He more best then Prokofiev, Prokofiev learnt from him
That's not true. He was older dan his best friend Prokofiev, but they studied together and simultaneously. And Prokofiev was more daring and original, but Myaskovsky has a great sincerity.
Never hear his work on our two local classical music stations, KUSC and KMZT. Thank you for uploading this.
Achei minha primeira sinfonia perfeita de cabo a rabo, simplesmente genial!
Thank you ! I have been hearing russian music for a long time but never heard about him.
Thank you for uploading this.
Wow....thought I heard a whole bunch of late Rakhmaninov symphonics in the last minute or two. I do like Myaskovsky and will now listen to much more.....Thanks!
Hi Gallo
I m here now !
@@heavy21metal -- OMyGod...You're HERE now? and from WHERE? WHO are you anyway? I'm Gallo of San Agustinillo, Oaxaca....Whither thou???

What a composer!
Жаль что Мясковский не получил должную ему почесть и славу.
Thank you! I've never heard his name before. Beautiful work!
Love your profile pic ngl
Glad that I found this composer! Recording isn't that bad... music is wonderful!!!
Ciao! If it doesn't hurt you, I'd like to suggest to hear the "Two pieces for String Orchestra Op. 46 bis" too. They are two movements of the 19th symphony, Op. 46, rearranged for strings (the original symphony is written for brasses only). If you like Myaskovsky's music, you will love'em!!! A hug fom Italy
@@riccardoemanuelegrassi2069 Great suggestion! To be precise, it's op. 46a. 🙂
@@DressedForDrowning 😊
What a life he had! Wounded veteran of World War I and of the Red Army, the very army which killed his father. His most inspired war symphony is the sixth, because he was very much part of that first world war. Let's not forget that most Russian composers in 1941 were completely cut off from the events of World War II. Their war symphonies are thus abstractions in the sense that they didn't know; they could only imagine.
a rare piece
EXCELENTE
that just took my breath away
34:00 to the end is so good
Majestic
Initial four notes quote Schuberts Unfinished
Myaskovsky Symphony n.22 op.54 in bm ♡♡♡. Tchaikovsky Symphony n.6 op.74 in bm ♡♡♡♡♡.
True Russian Music. Thanks.
"True Russian music"? Then wait til you hear Glière's 2nd !
And he wrote this in the middle of WWII...
WOW.....RESPECT
I'm curious about a Death Tango which was connected to this composer's name, somehow. Did he compose such a piece? I grew up listening to classical music but never even heard of Myaskovsky!
Death Tango? i doubt that? I studied his life and works for years, but no...
This is one of my most favourite symphonies, so noble and consoling. The picture choice is..stupid.
The image is well suited to the solemnity of the music .............. ;-)
It was written in 1941 and first time played in 1942 after Operation Barbarossa, its probably the first symphonic response to The Great Patriotic War, released before 7th Symphony by Shostakovich so Red Square 1945 Victory Parade picture fits nice in my opinion but even better whould be a photo from the 1941 October Revolution Parade when troops went straight into battle from the Red Square.
picture choice makes total sense. Soviet Union 1941, up against Nazi Germany. Thats what he was feeling
@@chrisconnor8086, I've looked at it again and again saw very little relation to the music: maybe there is only on the surface level, and demonstrates superficial understanding of the music.
This music is not of war actions or parades but rather it's sorrow and reflexion of an individual, the depths of his feelings, and much, much more.
Parades, also - but I doubt that in descriptive, poster sense.
Most of the symphony is lyrical and even pastoral in tone, da hell?!
I'm complaining mostly because this pic may easily confuse or distract newcame listeners.
@@Senatedefender this music is 'about' whatever the listener thinks it's about! Everyone is different and experiences the World through the filters of that experience. Thus we can never 'see' the World in the same way as others.
This would have been a masterpiece if it weren't for the ending. It feels tacked on, because it was expected of music to be defiant and bombastic as a sign that the war would end in victory. But it doesn't feel as an organic development of what came before.
Shostakovich managed to have that kind of ending in his 7th ending by preparing it much better. The entire Finale of that Symphony builds to it.
This symphony here however did not. I expected a quiet, solemn but hopeful ending.
Apart from that awful Shostakovich 7th I agree with you, but all depends on the perfomance. This one is incredibly dull. Svetlanov's rendition has much more tension.
Какой инструмент солирует в начале?
I think it's a contrabassoon.
It is Contrabassi e celli with contrafagotto e clarinetto basso, with fagotti divisi.
Creo que un fagot o clarinete bajo
❤❤ 😥😥😥😥
Adding this background to Myaskovsky's music is like adding bratwurst pictures to Mozart
+Tymur Melnyk agree!!
Reminiscent of A Clockwork Orange
Wrong! One day you too may need to choose between free expression and mass graves
I get your point but I'm sure Mozart liked his Bratwurst if he could get any :) Which is not to say that Myaskovsky liked the Soviet regime. Like most, he just complied with it, right ?
Yeah, I guess 'Whatever gets ya thru da night'....""In the life of a man, his time is but a moment, his being an incessant flux, his sense a dim rushlight, his body a prey of worms, his soul an unquiet eddy, his fortune dark, his fame doubtful. In short, all that is body is as coursing waters, all that is of the soul as dreams and vapors." [Marcus Aurelius) You caught me in a good mood......
last great composer?
And life repeats itself with an almost tragicomic insistence and perpetuating pain and misery
Background is totally inappropriate
Yeah, I wonder whether it's been chosen because the symphony was composed when Leningrad was being besieged? Still, it doesn't fit the music, no more than a Georgian landscape would fit Shostakovich's 7th.
Frankly, It does'nt matter
Actually, the background is most appropriate.
Wonderful piece, very poorly played. Doesn't do justice to this great music, sadly.
