    00:00 I. Prelude : Yellow River Rafter
    The first movement depicts the breathtaking chant of rafters as they battle furious waters, dragging their boats upstream with ropes on their backs.
    03:25 II. Ode to the Yellow River
    This slow movement is an emotional tribute to the river that symbolises the Chinese people’s indomitable spirit.
    07:45 III. The Yellow River in Wrath
    The third movement begins with the crips melody of a bamboo flute that paints the picture of a beautiful country full of riches and happiness. The melody takes a dark turn as the theme of invasion and war begins to ravage the country and enrage the people.
    14:01 IV. Defend the Yellow River
    The battle call to defend the country stirs up the theme of this powerful finale aimed to inspire people to take up arms against foreign aggression. The injection of a solo by the traditional pita amid the Western orchestra dramatises the grandeur of galloping cavalry, further emphasising the spectacular urgency and power of a united people.
    Piano: Daniel Epstein
    The Philadelphia Orchestra
    Conductor: Eugene Ormandy
    Recorded in 1983

    The Orchestra together with Daniel Epstein had a tour in China 1973 without any pay, much to their satisfaction they were received by Madam Mao, Jiang Qing, the leader in Chinese musc at that time. This recording was done prior to that tour. First time to enjoy this concerto ever played by non-Chinese musicans.

    Huge thanks to the Classical Music/ /Reference Recording for upload and share this music! Fantastic playing by the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra, Daniel Epstein, and conducting by Eugene Ormandy.
    A small correction to the description: this music was composed in March of 1939, not the 40s. It's worthy to note that this music was composed during WW2 to rally Chinese people to join the anti-Fascism battles to resist Imperial Japanese invasion, and this music has its profound influences to multiple generations of people in morden China since WW2 up to this day. It's probably one of the most recognized music in the world if you only count the number of people knowing it, although in the West the number of people knowing it is relatively small.
    This music is very similar to Sibelius's Finlandia, or Shostakovich's Symphony No. 7 Leningrader, where the composer paid attribute to his native land and made the music as an ode to his motherland during the time when the nation was struggling for regaining freedom from occupation. In this regard, this music represented the good forces against evil, and it has its historic significances just like Finlandia and Leningrader.
    In fact, when you listen to the second movement "Ode to the Yellow River", you should look at this famous painting with the same title: 5b0988e595225.cdn.sohucs.com/images/20181123/8312fa8204b74d5fbebcb1fec1ce84ca.jpeg. depicting a soldier standing on the bank of the Yellow River before going to the battle, made by a famous artist in China Yi-Fei Chen who attributed it to this very music piece, and just imagine yourself standing there immersing in the golden sunset light over the Yellow River and taking in the sense of long history that this river has raised and nurtured an entire nation over the millenniums.
    And here's the lyrics of the last movement, and it'll all make sense when you listen to the music:
    The wind is howling,
    the horses are calling,
    The Yellow River is roaring,
    The hills of west bank (of the Yellow River) are ten thousand feet high,
    The sorghum is ripe in the fields of east and north bank (of the Yellow River),
    In the mountains and hills (around the river), there are countless heroes resisting the Japanese invasion,
    In the green gauze tent made of the crops, the guerrillas and partisans are taking their heroic actions,
    Picking up your guns,
    Swinging your swords and spears,
    Defend your home,
    Defend the Yellow River,
    Defend the Northern region (where Japan has occupied),
    Defend the entire China!
    We have seen many symphony orchestras in Germany played Shostakovich's Symphony No. 7 Leningrader, but we are yet to see any Japanese symphony orchestra plays The Yellow River. The day that happens, that's when Japan has truly close its chapter of WW2 aggressions.

    Wunderschöne und spannende Interpretation dieses scheinbar orientalisch doch wesentlich okzidentalisch komponierten Konzerts mit klar artikuliertem Klang des technisch perfekten Soloklaviers sowie gut vereinigten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen der anderen Instrumente. Der intelligente und erfahrene Dirigent leitet das hoch funktionelle Orchester im veränderlichen Tempo und mit möglichst effektiver Dynamik. Wundervoll und atemberaubend zugleich!

    This is after Nixon's visit to China.This piano concerto is a piano concerto arrangement of four movements from the Yellow River Cantata composed by Xin Xinhai in around 1940. The arranger himself made a recording of this concerto with Naxos.

    曲の最終あたり、国歌「東天紅」のフレーズが入るあたりはさすがに社会主義リアリズム。演奏はオーマンディ・フィラでルフィア、いささか曲想に乏しい原曲を色彩感豊かに盛り上げる秀逸な演奏だ。

    I dont know much about classical music at all, but I do love a lot of it and thank you for uploading this and YT for me being able to find great pieces of music of all types for free. That being said, this may be the best full piece of music of this style for me; because it is energetic, upbeat and even romantic too. Many times classical goes a bit to dreary, slow and then wham, it goes to that fast pace and then down again. I know its supposed to tell a story and all that, but thats not for me. This video here is just awesome for me, as I listen again to it at 2:25 and other parts, it truly captures some Asian/Chinese type sounds in its own unique way; and I love ancient and traditional Chinese instruments and music. You could slow dance with a loved one to this, fast dance like some ballroom hero in your kitchen and even lay down and snuggle up, cuddle and kiss the whole time through. Thanks again for such a great piece of music and lots of love and peace to everyone here. Love Chris
    Ps this clip is awesome if you like that chines style

    Thanks for posting this - I"ve been looking for this performance of the Yellow River Concerto, this being the version I first got to know back in the 1970s.
    Do you by any chance have the performance of Respighi's "Pines of Rome" which was on the other side of the L.P.? This was also performed by the Philadelphia Orchestra conducted by Eugene Ormandy, and it is the best performance of this work I recall hearing - but that has been a long time, since I no longer have a record payer to play the record. (That means I have, somewhere or other, stacks of L.P.s that are no longer playable.)
    There is another recording of "Pines of Rome" by the Philadelphia Orchestra conducted by Eugene Ormandy. This seems to be more readily available, and was part of a set of recordings of the whole Roman trilogy of Respighi. But it has a serious flaw in it that I'm surprised no-one's ever pointed out, as it sticks out like a sore thumb, at least to anyone who knows this work well. At the beginning of the 3rd section, "Pines of the Janiculum", there is a florid cadenza played on the piano while the strings sustain a long chord in B major, with pentatonic additions. That cadenza starts at the bottom of the piano, and the initial low note should be D#, being the mediant note of the B-major tonality - but, inexplicably, the better-known Ormandy recording has the piano start incorrectly on the low B instead of D#, creating a clash with the strings, whose low note is D#. It quite ispoils the performance. The cadenza recurs later in "Pines of the Janiculum", and this time starts on the low B, along with the orchestra. I wonder whether, in the recording you usually encounter, Ormandy considered that the low D# in the first appearance of the cadenza to be a misprint, and so altered it to match the cadenza recurring latler. But I would have thought that the double basses also sitting on low D# would have confirmed that the first cadenza should indeed start on D#.
    This error can be clearly heard here: th-cam.com/video/O2z0uVFckYQ/w-d-xo.html
    The lesser-known version which was on the back of the Yellow River Concerto recording plays this correctly. I would like to be ablel to hear it again; if you (the channel owner) have this, I would really appreciate it if you could please post it here.
    Thank you.

    Mao Ze-dong’s war against the Japanese? Don't be silly. Mao didn't fight against the Japanese. The KMT did. Mao actually proclaimed he want Japan to occupy a third of China to drag down the KMT.

    UNA IMITACION
    Bella música, pero un pasticho de temas de los cuales no quedanin ninguno en la mente. Una imitación pobre de lo occidental, para barrer con "el museo de lo antiguo", como decian los jóvenes maoistas de la revolución cultural.
