I would be freaking out if I was playing Stravinsky under Stravinsky.....
Mrmusicdude101 I would shit my pants
He seems an easy going guy though. I think Mahler would be worse.
I sang in his Persephone as a kid in the children’s chorus. He was very kind to us because we’d been scared witless in rehearsals with Robert Craft !
@@georginajillkeating4734 that must be a really fond memory for you!
Especially with his conducting, haha
Was just thinking that it's such a privilege to listen and watch Stravinsky like this. What would I do without TH-cam? Thank you.
You should purchase the DVD from vai music. I have and I love it! I have many other documentaries in my collection featuring tons of archival footage of Stravinsky and his wife, Vera.
Michael Svoboda-Britz Thanks for this amazing tip. I didn't know.
Sì, è vero!
Yes, it's incredible!
0:41 It is so wholesome how he just laughs cordially and politely corrects the players and restarts as if nothing happened.
meanwhile Toscanini:
listen to me, TESTE DI CAZZO!!!
Such remarkable joy on Stravinsky's face as he hears this music of his come to life. And so remarkable also the way he just lets it be, not being self-indulgent in the manner of many conductors. The little correction early on when the bassoon slows down (such a common tradition in most performances) and how alive the music seems when that is redone. Just delightful from start to finish.
i love how he goes to stop them at 02:08 and is just like “ok”
It’s to ask to play quietly aha tho I thought it meant stop as well until he went on
@@dreamer_4937pretty sure that’s not the case. That’s to stop but they are halfway through the measure I expect
Che meraviglia! Grande, grande, grande Igor' Stravinskij!
thumbs up if you are watching because you like Stravinsky
Pulcinella is a charming, delightful piece made even more so by Stravinsky's elegant conducting. This little video is a treat.
It's kind of comforting to know that even Stravinsky does the thing of roughly singing out the rhythm/notes of a section before starting
Great. He seems to enjoy his music a lot, and deservedly so, it's not only music made by a genius, but also extremely captivating. I'm glad to see the legendary Stravinsky, especially conducting his own composition!
Ah Pulcinella. What a piece. Probably the greatest pastiche of earlier centuries ever composed in history. Full of elegant, cheeky, witty twists and turns, respectful of original material but also creating a wonderful fresh take on already wonderful music. What a delight to see and hear. Great playing too.

Braviisimo Igor Stravinsky!
What a treasure.
This is from a Canadian television documentary titled "Stravinsky at 85," and yes, there is some further footage of him conducting and rehearsing. The entire program may be purchased on DVD from Video Artists International (see link in the video description above).
Sheer class. What a treat to watch the master at work.
I'm realy proud,to be a classical musician...love you maestro
Such a joy to see Stravinsky rehearsal..
I just Love His ACADEMIC STYLE OF MAKING OF MUSIC.
Are you calling what is simply the MUSIC and "academic" don't know what? It is no wonder that music no longer exists.
Spectacular!!! Stratospherical!!!! Thanks for posting.
The master@ what a treat@
Thanks for this awesome gift. The master of music of all time
このような歴史的な映像に出会えるのは、youtubeが有るからこそですね。素晴らしい!!!!
Very beautiful.
This man is one of the greatest geniuses not only of the 20th century, but of all time.
He seems to be happy here.
This is incredible and wonderful video document!
Wow! Great quality on this video, and so interesting to see him speak about his music.
sooo beautyful music!!!!!!!!!!
This is amazing. I have been searching for this. It is awesome. He is awesome.
The solo violin sounds gorgeous
wonderful xx
Fenomenal!!
I'm grateful for someone who recorded this footage for posterity. I quite like the Neoclassical period of Stravinsky.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful moment.
One of the most profound, and influential composers of the 20th century. Where would John Williams be today without the inspiration of "Igor Stravinsky"?
You mean Gustav Holst?
Just surpurb! Thanks for such a stunning post!!
Stravinsky works graciously with the players.
The recording is so good for the time!
I love this.
Love!
Thanks.ありがとう
That horn player has an UNBELIEVABLE sound!! Anybody know who he is?
Eugene Rittich.
Honestly I think all of them have pretty amazing sound
Grande Grande Grande!!!
Happy 139th birthday, Stravinsky! 1882, 17 June
OMG! I can't believe that I'm watching this. I salute the people who had the insight to record this video back then. I hear 'hints' of the great BACH in some of his changes, particularly @ 1:27 with the flute stating the theme, then @ 2:10 with the violin. Classic!!!
Sweet music.
Que fenómeno
In the spring of 1967 Robert Craft and Stravinsky gave a concert in Toronto. The composer was nearly 85 and conducted the Pulcinella Suite; it was the last time he would ever conduct. CBC showed their documentary that year, though they could not be aware this was to be his farewell concert. I wonder if the Craft Oedipus Rex (featuring Marilyn Horne) is in the vaults?
He was an amazing genius
thank you so much for posting!
Fantastique!
He's 85 here and he still seems to soothe conducting just fine....of course Craft would do a lot of the grunt work in early rehearsals but still...
85 actually.
As far as I know, he was not Jewish in religion nor ethnicity. He was Russian Orthodox and Russian.
A Jalapeño Why is this to note?
@@aidanknisch1996 someone probably asked about or said about him, and he answered, since this comment was written 7 years ago
He does look very jewish, but this is true. He is Russian through and through
He has a significant amount of Polish in him.
Exactly.
what a genius
Masters at works.
Que preciosa melodía
Very rare footage !!
Legend.
Magic, and spot on Orchestra as usual when Stravinsky is involved himself..!
God bless him!
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Fantastic !! thanks for this vid
El último GRAN GENIO.
th-cam.com/video/_thKNBJcCNg/w-d-xo.html
He seems very nice.
very nice = perfect !
I quite agree some of my most prized mono classical lps are of Stravinsky conducting the new York philharmonic and thed Cleveland orchestras
He looks so happy at 1:15. I wonder if it was hearing his own music, or if it was that that guy played on tempo this time?
Both. :D
In my opinion, Igor Stravinsky kind of resembles my Great-granddad.
Yes, I think you're right!
@@WinrichNaujoks hahahahahaha
What if he IS your great grandad lol
Wow x3
this is Pulcinella suite--santa fe symphony just did it here!!
Стравимский, el compositor más grande del siglo XX. Conoció a Чайковский, siendo muy joven, estudio' con Rimsky
Suberb!!
😍😍😍
Pretty interesting, at 0:28 you can hear the Stravinsky from the Firebird and Petroushka in the first chord. Not in the rest though, it all sounds neocalssical.
Thanks for sharing. Cheers!
¡¡¡Canción!!!!
@peppersax
o yes, very clasic moments
It is the Andantino section from Pulcinella
@smzmusic and of course Philip Glass, Tan Dun adn Arvo Pärt. Sadly we lost one of the most emotional compsoers of the minimalist-genre not long ago, Gorecki
Interesting that he’s so “head down” in his own score. 😊
💒
Anyone who says Stravinsky is an emotionless conductor doesn't know Stravinsky.
wow thanks for putting this on ..... I love watching the maestro with his head buried as if discovering it all for the first time ..... !! What date is it ?? early 60's ?? Any idea which orchestra ??
@smzmusic John Corigliano, Eric Whitacre, Frank Ticheli
How do I listen to a complete and definitive version of this? I love it...
Here's a good version of the complete ballet. Sony records has Stravinsky's excellent recording of the suite and the ballet music.th-cam.com/video/ShIYpjSYoZI/w-d-xo.html
@dalecampbl7 sure.. off the top of my head Steve Reich, Elliott Carter, George Crumb, John Adams just to name a few
@SonofDostojevskij Yes
What's the name of this beautiful piece?
Pulcinella :)
@cespan88 Dudo entre si dice "same" or "sem" en inglés o italiano
Wow, what is the name of this piece? It's beautiful. :)
It's his suite from the ballet Pulcinella from 1920. Stravinsky arranged pieces from various early 18th century composers, and it is the beginning of his (and Picasso's, the set designer of the ballet) neoclassical period
@cespan88 No creo que cara de amargado sea lo correcto, estan trabajando y se lo toman en serio simplemente puede ser cara de concentración.
Igor Stravinsky and Aaron Copland are long lost twins. They look so much alike. lol
Hey Toronto people-- was that hyman goodman on violin?
2:15 what happened?????
1-2-3-1-2-3
This seems to contradict Stravinsky's admission that he simply copied Robert Craft's conducting. Fantastic stuff.
which piece is this?
Perhaps. I don't think that's it. I believe the orchestra has not sensed his time properly, and he is a bit slower than them. This is a rehearsal, not a concert.
Dislikes?
2:09
Efficient! And nice to see that even the composer is using the score during rehearsals.
