Serenade, Op. 2 (1897) I. March II. Romance III. Waltz IV. Finale An early work for string orchestra by Polish composer Mieczysław Karłowicz (1876-1909). Conductor: Antoni Wit Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra
this piece is a true jewel among the master pieces from the great composers of all times. I'm very privileged to play this Wonderful serenade with our string orchestra very soon in Yucatán. Thank you for the video
We cannot make our mind about the genius of Karlowitz with this serenade. In agreement with the laws of the genre, it is a rather light and optimistic music. The postromantic soul of Karlowitz cannot be retrieved here. What we can find here however is the immense musical skill of the composer. This sereande is a gem.
Karlowitz was a young and very gifted Polish postromantic composer, who died prematurely in an avalanche in the Tatras moiuntains. His music is often very serious and addresses some themes as love, death, rebirth, immortality, fate. He could have had an eminent place in the Polish music and in the postromantic music in general. Here, by exception, we have a lighter Serenade. But Karlowitz is not naive enough to abndon his solid style and this Serenade is wonderfully written.
Unexpectedly good. I love Karlowicz' great series of six symphonic poems. I had always disregarded his earliest pieces. This is masterful. Great composer!
Es ist meine erste Gelegenheit dieses Werk anzuhören. Erstaunlich schön und bezaubernd! Es soll viel häufiger aufgeführt und viel höher geschätzt werden.
This was perfectly lovely. I was not familiar with this composer. I researched him and found he was killed in an avalanche skiing. Lovely music reminiscent of Tchaikowsky and Wagner, yet uniquely Karlowicz. Thank you for enlightening me to new music. BRIAN
many, many thanks for uploading this musical gem indeed. Wondefully performed by this great musicians. from Warsaw. Keep uploading this music please . your doing a great job. I apreciate and thank you from the bottom of my heart
Um belissimo trabalho, de um autor pouco ouvido nas salas de concertos do Brasil mas, felizmente, em alguma sala ou estúdio de gravação no mundo, coisas magnificas ocorrem, e são levadas ao conhecimento e entretenimento dos que garimpam joias. Gratidão a quem postou.
Serenade for Strings in C Major, Op. 2 I. March: Allegro moderato - Tempo di marcia - Trio: Meno mosso II. Romance: Andante con moto III. Waltz: Allegro moderato - poco più mosso - Tempo I IV. Finale: Allegretto non troppo
This is a really nice piece. I have to admit I'd not heard of Karlowicz before, as I was looking for 'Serenade for Strings by Elgar. Karlowicz (based on hearing this work) sounds like a cross between Elgar and Dvorak. Incidentally Dvorak also composed a 'Serenade for Strings'...as indeed did several other composers.
One of those polish bohemians crazed about newly discovered by themTatra Mountains.The Mountains eventually killed this young talent,alas. What I find disappointing in the ouvre presented here is the lack of reference to the most original, vigorous and melodic folk music of the Tatra mountaineers. Clearly this polish aspiring member of Nobility regarded himself above the stringing of melodies by a lowly peasantfolk. This was not so with Chopin, Szymanowski and some others and an explanation to the secret why this composer has been virtually unknown in his own country.
Unknown? C'mon...every Polish musician knows his Symphonic Poems, Songs and Violin Concerto especially. It's just 30 years after Soviet regime and we are fighting really hard to bring forgotten works into the light... Chopin and Szymanowski...everyone knows them. But, then, you have Karłowicz, Bacewicz, Lutosławski, Noskowski, Moniuszko, Paderewski, Weinberg, Laks, Penderecki, Górecki, Kilar, Moss. So many od them! All the best!
I've never heard this music in elevator. I don’t know which country you are from. The music we most often hear in an elevator is pop music. Sometimes very famous music like Beethoven's No. 9 (arranged), Ravel's Bolero, Pictures at Exhibition, Swan Lake, etc. are played in an elevator. I guess you don't understand music at all. Nothing helps callous fools to appreciate sublime music. BTW, I'm almost sure you're a troll, cos I noticed your way of responding is characteristic to trolls. Repeat what you want to say in a very simple 2-3 words sentence like a moron to irritate people who have responded your post and love the music. I don’t think up any other reason you should post this kind of tosh at a site where music lovers exchange their opinions.

Niedoceniany Karłowicz a muzyka piękna!
A very charming, elegant and beautiful work. Karlowicz is a talented composer who truly knows his craft. A delight to hear this.

Yes, he was very talented - very original and often so beautifully lyrical - I love his songs and the violin concerto as well
I’m playing this with the string ensemble at RCS and I love it

Music to soothe the soul and lift the spirit! I also like his Violin Concerto, but some of his works are too Impressionistic for me.
Seltsam...das klingt so nordisch!

Elevator music.
Perhaps, but better than most of what one can hear in an elevator. Besides, who wants Bach, Haydn, or Mozart in an elevator?
I'd rather have no music. Music in an elevator is generally bad, so this piece would fit right in.
Come on, the intro to that second movement doesn't impress you at all?
Elevator music.
