This is an outstanding recording of a magnificent piece of music. Let me tell you, it doesn't get any better than this. Stravinsky would have been very, very proud of this performance. One thing I have to say is, I enjoyed this immensely. Thank you so much for uploading this wonderful recording.
One of my favorite pieces of music. I'm a big fan of Frank Zappa's music from the 1960's and he spoke about Stravinsky in interviews, so I went out and bought a couple albums and one was L`Histoire du Soldat and the other was Rite of Spring. I then heard certain parts Zappa used in some of his music like "Call Any Vegetable". Also "Igor's Boogie Parts I and II" are directly influenced by this piece. Thanks for educating me, Frank.

Ahead of the curve musically is for certain. My Stravinsky Conducts vinyl was one of many interpretations I treasure and respect. Stravinsky was "a head of the curve" as a human being as well. He lived during my younger years. RIP Petrushka.
@@muslit It has many signs of being neoclassical. Firstly, it is scored for a newly devised "chamber-sized neo-classic orchestra". (Quoting from the LA Philharmonic). Secondly, "the music itself has a raw, biting edge that slices away any and all vestiges of Romanticism." Neoclassical music is characterised as "sought to revive the principles of classical music, such as order, balance, clarity, economy, and emotional restraint." It draws from Luther and Bach. Neoclassical music commonly drew from the Baroque and Classical and Renaisance periods. And finally, it sounds Neoclassical, as in tonal, but not romantic, and coincides exactly with the beginning of the Neoclassical period. And also "Stravinsky was a key figure in the development of neoclassicism."
@@jamesscottvideos Historians place the ballet Pulcinella and the opera Mavra as Stravinsky earliest neo-classical works. As far as the chamber sized orchestra ...six instrumentalists, really a chamber work...is concerned, that was a result of World War I, for economic reasons, and an influence of Schoenberg's Pierrot Lunaire. Furthermore, most critics are inclined to have the Octet as the real beginning of Stravinsky's neo-classic work, because it contains no references to his Russian period, as L'histoire does, and it doesn't paraphrase another composer as Pulcinella does.
there's a 'jazz element' to Stravinsky's L'Histoire du Soldat, Pierre Boulez. ( but i'm cheating; i've read that Stravinsky did visit Harlem, and, i think, went to jazz clubs: so it's a 'no-brainer!' ( that there is jazz influence where...you think you hear one ).)

Superbe version du maître Boulez. Tous les musiciens sont au top !
Trombone et cornet ❤ percussion ❤ et le reste merveilleux. Je ne m’en lasse pas.

One of stravinsky’s many masterpieces
truly honest and clean performance, marked by utter accuracy and a great sense of style
listen to these great composition pieces and see how much prog-rock, jazz and film music was inspired by Stravinsky
Might have been inspired by him, but doesn't match him!
Fantastic reccording of a masterpiece created by a real GENIUS!

lovely sounds, full of surprises and pleasure. bravo!
Quintessential neoclassicism, very jazzy and excellent sound quality.
Almost completely devine. Want to see the ballet some day. You Tube perhaps. Or...
This is not neoclasicism.

Amazing record 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 one of best I ever heard, especially The Brook andamento. ❤
Frank Zappa sent me, and I'm glad he did.
Congratulations,absolutely wonderful!....
Magnifica interpretación de la obra del músico ruso Igor Stravinsky, que delicadeza en sus bemoles ye impetuoso en sus allegros. Gracias.
quite a fine result!!

In fact, the influence of jazz in 'The Rite of Spring' is well known: look at the minute 26 th-cam.com/video/EkwqPJZe8ms/w-d-xo.html
also, some sense of 'solemnity,' near to the end eg within the final 2 minutes of L'Histoire du Soldat, Pierre Boulez.
It’s great

The Soldier's March clearly influenced Danny Elfman's score for Pee-Wee's Big Adventure!
I hear a lot of similarities with Beetlejuice too
❤
I'm not familiar with this piece, but it's a good warm up practice for the 2nd mvt. of Prokofiev Concerto #1 that you're doing next year.
Who are the players?
Franklin Cohen, clarinet ?
YES!! :)

tres bien joué mais la version avec maurice andré est un peu supérieure le cornet joue très bien car ce n'est pas facile rythimiquement parlant
also, 'brilliant' sketches to L'Histoire du Soldat: passages lending themselves to character postures, posturing; perhaps comedy.
Its Histoire du Soldat, not l'histoire du Soldat
It's "it's," not "its."

Absolutely, and do not forget influenced by Korsakov father of
an earlier time of Russian innovation musically speaking only.
