I feel shame of not having known the work of this artist before, that work has a brutal force ... I am running (virtually) to look for more of his works on the Internet, although with that work he has already entered my list of favorite painters ...Thanks Theo.
Amazing quote. And very true today with the perpetuation of life in social media and fake lives in video games. Man doesn't seem to be bothered by anything anymore.
I would modify to 2020's situation in post-modern society "The tragedy of modern man is not that he knows less and less about the meaning of his own life, but that he doesn't care at all anymore"
To me, Dvořák is the greatest composer who has ever lived. With all due respect to all the other great authors and musical geniuses, I like Dvořák most of all, as he manages to put emotion in his music in a very touching way. Each time I listen to Dvořák, I'm not just amazed by his incredible ability of composition, but I also feel the emotion in the music very strongly. More strongly than with any other author.
Anyone on TH-cam could claim that. Hell, we even have Game of Thrones characters here, making funny comments. Most of the time I don't believe the attention seeking people who claim they are related to whatever famous person.
RIP Big George. I never could beat you at chess. When we played, this song would echo in my head as you thrashed me despite decades of learning. You never let me win, and I appreciate that. I never did get to play you last year to show you my FrankDrac variation, you cheeky git. Miss you, mate. I hope they've got you a comfy spot wherever you are, and you'd better be ready for me!
+Gxoxoxox Pxoxoxox I love that painting. Such a search into the impact of death and how each of the onlookers wears a different emotion. My favourite touch is how the little girl's face is not shown, probably because she has no idea how to react to death.
What a beautiful discovery today. I have never heard the Dvorak Requiem in my life. I would love for the Nairobi Music Society to perform it one day to bring it to music lovers in Kenya
Sometimes we hear things and are not ready to hear them. I know I have heard this before but today I really heard it for the first time. I was so moved I didn't want it to end. Thanks to all who made it possible for me to have my soul opened up today.
A mi me sirven en tiempos de frío e incertidumbre. No me hacen sentir triste, pero sí me hacen vivir esos tiempos con tranquilidad. Los encuentro bellos, como una tormenta.
Prague, December 2011 around Christmas, main square at Hradcany Castle.....the funeral ceremony for Vaclav Havel, this deeply touching Czech requiem sounded over the squeare....... thousands and thousands present in deep silence, in mourning, crying and outside the castle so many more thousands....just fifty meters away from the Vitus Cathedral where it all happened.....all so in "balance": this music, the ideas Havel stood for, the friendly, warm Czech mentality, the love you could feel around you....Maybe most emotional event in my life. All praise to Maris Jansons, who "understands" the universal love in this masterwork of Dvorak so well.
I did not know about this playing of the Requiem when he died. It must have been overwhelmingly moving for the people, something to remember for ever. I have always loved this work, having sung in the chorus of a performance of it as a young college student -- and I deeply admired Havel and especially his writings. I was very saddened when he died.
Although the circumstances and situations are so contrary I'm reminded of the story of Beethoven's passing, the reverent crowds and what is must have been like. Thanks Has.
I'm surprised King made, what is to me, this very cynical comment. After all, he was committed to Christian ideals, and here he is denying his belief in his friends. Such glibness doesn't fit with his nature, and hopes, as I understand them.
@@victorireland8913 I don't understand why MLKj was even quoted in the first place. Furthermore, if you look into an unadulterated history of King's life, you'd see he actually had loose ties with the church, was a crass man behind closed doors, cheated on his wife, and was proponent of communism. The latter is, in its simplest form, is atheist. Soo with all things considered, I would say his cynical comment rings true.
Almost two hours of beautiful, beautiful music and liturgy. What such depth of soul and pathos. Excellent world renown individual soloist, SATB. Bravo Fortissimo.
He was simply mixing the two emotion words together to create one that implies both. It's a common joke. For example: sad and mad makes "smad," which sounds funny and thus creates humor. It was a purposeful misspelling-- so it would be wrong to correct it. He isn't asking about the word used nor is he trying to correct them in any way-- he's making a joke by combining the two words.
I figured--sorry if my first reply was rude, I entirely forgot there are people who may not speak english as a first language or who may not live in a play where this particular joke is common. I hope you have a nice day :)
As a vocal music major and conductor who was privileged to perform with the NYC Philharmonic, San Antonio Symphony and Fort Worth Symphony and under the direction of Bernstein, Carlo Maria Giulini, Stokowski, Robert Shaw and to never been exposed to this exquisite piece. Now at 81, I never will have the joy of performing this piece. Thank God I got to hear this recording. Thank you, Dvorak.
There is so much worthwhile music some lost forever that one lifetime is insufficient to appreciate all of it, just hope the afterlife makes up for it.
Cannot believe I had never heard this Requiem. Sung many, many of them. There are several moments that are reminiscent of the Verdi Requiem - some chords in particular. As usual, Dvorak's music is transcendent.
I have watched and listened to Verdi's( performed in as a Uni student studying music) , Brahm's, Mozart's and Faure's requiems being performed but not Dvorak's. I am thoroughly impressed and amazed that this is seemingly little performed by choirs and accompanying orchestras. The diversity of intensity combined with melodic emotion is awe inspiring.
+Holm Natalie It is rather strange. I sing in a choir and so far we have performed Mozart's and Verdi's requiem and this autumn we will be singing Faure's. I'm going to have to ask if there are any plans of doing this one, because I really like it.
It does it gives you the feeling or notion that even the most innocent and harmless of beings can face death, struggle or pain nothing is sacred in a world governed by hatred and wrath
One of those composers that just never ceases to astound with their majesty of sound creation. Music that will last for as long as humanity has ears to hear, hearts to feel.
No other piece gives me such goosebumps! One of the most beautiful pieces I have had the pleasure of listening to in this life of mine yet so criminally underrated. Magnificent.
What a great discovery. It's hard finding music that makes me feel happy and at peace. This is the type of music I will only listen to when I want to relax.
1:35:32 - 1:36:18 the most beautiful minute in the whole Requiem. The harmony, progression, sound everything sound so heavenly. Makes me cry every time...
March 27 2021 I'm so happy to be alive to enjoy such master piece. I don't have words to describe this wonderful feeling..regards to all of you, from NYC. THANK YOU
Lovely. I know Dvorak`s great grand son. He`s name is Wilmous, he is a musician from Hungary. Very nice charming and talented guy. (He was married to my aunt, now divorced, sadly.)
To wildnorthsea (below): "A little knowledge is a dangerous thing." Dvorak and his family came New York in 1892 at the invitation of Jeanette Thurber as The Director of The National Conservatory of Music. He spent 2 summers in Spillvale, Iowa, where there was a Czech community. There he wrote The "American" Quartet and his String Quintet. Back in New York he composed The New World Symphony and his Cello Concerto and several articles, one entitled "On the value of Negro Music." He himself said, "I came to America to discover what young Americans had in their music and to help them express it."
Section one: I. Introitus: Requiem aeternam 0:00 II. Graduale: Requiem aeternam 10:23 III. Sequentia: Dies irae 15:33 - Tuba mirum 17:45 - Quid sum miser 26:23 - Recordare, Jesu pie 33:09 - Confutatis maledictis 40:16 - Lacrimosa 45:46 Section two: IV. Offertorium: Domine Jesu Christe 53:39 - Hostias 1:06:28 V. Sanctus 1:18:02 - Pie Jesu 1:24:09 VI. Agnus Dei 1:29:38
Pathos personified. With the painting, it reminds me of the reckless endings of many, many operas. Most excellent. I have never heard this before. This is as good as anything ever made.
Not as recognized as he definitely should, in my humble opinion. His Music is of Superior Quality and Beauty. Every time I listen to his work, I marvel. Perhaps greater than Mozart, a matter of opinion for sure. Thank you for posting.
I think Dvorak is not recognised as he should be. There are not many composers who excel at EVERYTHING. Symphonies, Concertos, Chamber Music, Operas, Sacred Music, Instrumental Music. Everything he did was touched by genius. Yet he always kept a genuine humility with regard to his own achievements. When he met with Sibelius (if only one could have eavesdropped on the conversation!) he told the younger man that he considered that he himself had written too much music. I would venture to disagree!
Thanks for the upload. Strangely, though I've been familiar with Dvorak's music for most of my life I've never bothered to investigate the Requiem. The more I listen the more I appreciate the greatness of this work, I guess it doesn't get performed that much compared to Verdi's because it lacks the "spectacular" more operatic parts but for me the Dvorak is without question, the finer composition. Great orchestral playing and chorus the performance is only spoilt by less than ideal soloists (Kertesz's soloists are far superior) however this does not detract from my overall enjoyment of this recording.
umut barat Agreed, it fascinates me, disturbing just the way she's lying, like the life was removed in an instant, shot, dropped dead. But the figure, like a sister - ha! My best effort at art description! Do you know it?
That's a work of a czech realistic painter, Jakub Schikaneder, called "The Murder in the House". In the full painting, there are also people standing reacting to the dead girl.
I'm only half way through listening to this - its the first time I've heard this requiem and I'm thoroughly enjoying it. I must confess to really enjoying the dramatic requiems such as Berlioz and Verdi - this one is really getting my attention.
This has always been one of my Favorite works and as I listened to this performance, sitting at the computer five feet from an open patio door, a thunderstorm rolled through. It was as if nature joined the performance, adding accent and dimension. It was wonderful! Thank you!
This is by far one of my favorite pieces of music I've ever heard. I've heard the very beginning somewhere before not too long ago, I have a hard time recalling exactly what or where, either way, this is astounding, had no idea it was Dvorak until now, even though he already was my favorite composer.
I'm essentially an atheist but I am addicted to this angelic sounding music. There is something transcendentally beautiful about it as art. This composer was a genius. Perfect mix of singing and strings. Never too soft or abrasive. ASMR for the soul.
***** Eh... depends on which ones. Most (or at least, well over half) members of both groups (Vegetarians/Vegans and Atheists) don't care enough to really tell people about it most of the time. However, both groups also have those assholes who are CONSTANTLY talking about it and being hella annoying, acting like they're superior for it. However, for both groups, those assholes are in the minority.
Beautiful performance. I've had the opportunity to sing this music (chorus). In the requiem world, it's as good as it gets. Dvorak seems under-appreciated to me, relegated to some second tier. Aside from his great music, he has the added distinction of demonstrating to Americans that they had a music of their own. We Americans should particularly value him. Hurray for Dvorak!
wildnorthsea He may have been Czech, but he was one of the first prominent composers to recognize America's original music and to actually champion it. He encouraged the American elites to embrace their own country's music.
Dvorak's music is simply wonderful. He deserves much more recognition than he gets. Personally, I haven't come across any of his works that I did not like, and I have listened to much of his works.
People, what do you talking about. This is deeply emotional work, one of the best sacred music ever composed in Europe and whole World. Picture show a tragic death of young girl, may be refer to Dvorak child lost. Please be more respect.
***** You can not compare Dvorak work to Brahms and Faure. Dvorak along with Mozart, make Requiem Mass with strong Catholic narration and more religious as personal message. Brahms and Faure requiem, it is a healing and more personal work (after death of parents). Dvorak was a Brahms pupil. And Brahms was a Robert Schumann pupil. But Dvorak music has more Schumann taste and it is not surprising for me. Together they were devotion to Jesus in Catholic Church.
This is an amazing job from Dvorak! In the end of the prayer you really can't know if the absolution will be given or if the condamnation is coming. So dense!
Many people today play modern music at weddings and funerals. Good for them. I want this played at my funeral. People who disagree are not invited. Actually I won't give a fuck cause I'll be dead by then anyway
People long ago had such wonderful music It's a shame people have grown to love rap and hip hop instead of doing something as beautiful as this. It's good to know people still listen to this though. ^.^
Wonderful piece to sing! If you stand among 140 singers , a large orchestra in front of you, every cell of your body is shaken by physical and mental vibration.
Estas piezas a mi me sirven en tiempos de frío e incertidumbre. No me hacen sentir triste o algo así, pero sí me hacen vivir esos tiempos con tranquilidad. Los encuentro bellos, como una tormenta.
So I can hear some parallels between Mozarts Requiem and Dvoraks Requiem. The famous Theme Mozart uses in the first part of his requiem seems to have been very inspiring to dvorak.
Not understanding but a handful of the words, between libretto and the instrumentation, the work captures depth from the human experience. 2020 just ended, full of chaos, angst, and anger. 2021 just began, full or chaos, angst, and anger. The music here does not shy away from the realities.

He truly is amazing, one of my favourite, amongst Rachmaninoff, Chopin, Guissepe Verdi and most definitely Shostakovitch!
One of the greatest!
That's my great great great great great uncle!!!!
Wow, a descendent from Dvorak?
My mom has some old paperwork. It is cool looking :)
a really great one ;-))
So where is he from? I'm wondering
Anyone on TH-cam could claim that. Hell, we even have Game of Thrones characters here, making funny comments. Most of the time I don't believe the attention seeking people who claim they are related to whatever famous person.
RIP Big George. I never could beat you at chess. When we played, this song would echo in my head as you thrashed me despite decades of learning. You never let me win, and I appreciate that. I never did get to play you last year to show you my FrankDrac variation, you cheeky git. Miss you, mate. I hope they've got you a comfy spot wherever you are, and you'd better be ready for me!
That’s so sweet! I’m sorry about George.

Now BLM and its ilk are telling whites to "be silent" and listen. Go figure.

Reminds me of watching old movies from back in the day. Good times.

Pathos personified. With the painting, it reminds me of the reckless endings of many, many operas. Most excellent. I have never heard this before. This is as good as anything ever made.
Not as recognized as he definitely should, in my humble opinion.
His Music is of Superior Quality and Beauty. Every time I listen to his work, I marvel.
Perhaps greater than Mozart, a matter of opinion for sure.
Thank you for posting.
I think Dvorak is not recognised as he should be. There are not many composers who excel at EVERYTHING. Symphonies, Concertos, Chamber Music, Operas, Sacred Music, Instrumental Music. Everything he did was touched by genius. Yet he always kept a genuine humility with regard to his own achievements. When he met with Sibelius (if only one could have eavesdropped on the conversation!) he told the younger man that he considered that he himself had written too much music. I would venture to disagree!
@@jonathanhill4892 Being able of doing many things isn't necessary for being a great composer, it's enough to be great at one thing. But yes.
@@wlrlel Yes, I quite agree
@@jonathanhill4892 Great
I listened Dvorak's Requiem in Armenia 3 days ago. It was amazing.
Thanks for the upload. Strangely, though I've been familiar with Dvorak's music for most of my life I've never bothered to investigate the Requiem. The more I listen the more I appreciate the greatness of this work, I guess it doesn't get performed that much compared to Verdi's because it lacks the "spectacular" more operatic parts but for me the Dvorak is without question, the finer composition. Great orchestral playing and chorus the performance is only spoilt by less than ideal soloists (Kertesz's soloists are far superior) however this does not detract from my overall enjoyment of this recording.
cameronpaul Then you should try Fauré's Requiem as well, it is incredible

Yes I am familiar with the Faure Requiem.
I liked the soloists very much. Ms. Garancia is one of the top Messo sopranos of today.
I could listen this all day.
amazing painting.
umut barat Agreed, it fascinates me, disturbing just the way she's lying, like the life was removed in an instant, shot, dropped dead. But the figure, like a sister - ha! My best effort at art description! Do you know it?
That's a work of a czech realistic painter, Jakub Schikaneder, called "The Murder in the House". In the full painting, there are also people standing reacting to the dead girl.
Thanks. Do you know where I can see the original?
Vertigo Immanotgonnatellya thank you
***** danke
I'm only half way through listening to this - its the first time I've heard this requiem and I'm thoroughly enjoying it. I must confess to really enjoying the dramatic requiems such as Berlioz and Verdi - this one is really getting my attention.
A powerful piece of music like all of Dvorak's music. One of my favorite requiem.
Thanks for posting.
Очень трагичное произведение. Прекрасное и гениальное.
This has always been one of my Favorite works and as I listened to this performance, sitting at the computer five feet from an open patio door, a thunderstorm rolled through. It was as if nature joined the performance, adding accent and dimension. It was wonderful! Thank you!
Un capolavoro ciclopico e travolgente. Dvořák fa parte dell'Olimpo.
I can't say how much I adore the Dies Irae part. I used to play on trumpet, so the fanfare, the trumpets... amazing, perfect coexistence and harmony!
This exquisitely beautiful music can literally scare the hell out of you! Wonderful...
Such a pleasure for my ears to hear. Perfection....
This is by far one of my favorite pieces of music I've ever heard. I've heard the very beginning somewhere before not too long ago, I have a hard time recalling exactly what or where, either way, this is astounding, had no idea it was Dvorak until now, even though he already was my favorite composer.
I'm essentially an atheist but I am addicted to this angelic sounding music. There is something transcendentally beautiful about it as art. This composer was a genius. Perfect mix of singing and strings. Never too soft or abrasive. ASMR for the soul.
Eh, only the ones who are, to at least some small extent, assholes (at least about their atheism).
OMG so guuud
***** Eh... depends on which ones. Most (or at least, well over half) members of both groups (Vegetarians/Vegans and Atheists) don't care enough to really tell people about it most of the time. However, both groups also have those assholes who are CONSTANTLY talking about it and being hella annoying, acting like they're superior for it. However, for both groups, those assholes are in the minority.
***** Which differs from most religions...how?
.
Beautiful performance. I've had the opportunity to sing this music (chorus). In the requiem world, it's as good as it gets. Dvorak seems under-appreciated to me, relegated to some second tier. Aside from his great music, he has the added distinction of demonstrating to Americans that they had a music of their own. We Americans should particularly value him. Hurray for Dvorak!
Bennett Markel I don't mean this as an insult but he was Czech and studied in his country, so his music can hardly be called American.
wildnorthsea He may have been Czech, but he was one of the first prominent composers to recognize America's original music and to actually champion it. He encouraged the American elites to embrace their own country's music.
Well put and agreed
Dvorak's music is simply wonderful. He deserves much more recognition than he gets. Personally, I haven't come across any of his works that I did not like, and I have listened to much of his works.
Listening to it for the first time. This is absolutely bombastic. I already fell in love for this great piece of work!
The applause at the end is also chilling!
Absolutely sublime! Thanks for posting
Grande capolavoro, grazie per pubblicare queste opere classiche, mi avvicinano a questo "mondo" a me sconosciuto.
No esperaba escuchar toda la pieza ahora, pero ya ha terminado, gracias Lord Dvořák, y gracias por subir el vídeo.
Le requiem le plus émouvant et le plus impressionnant que je connaisse.Son interprétation est magistrale ici. Merci pour ce partage.
Indeed - but another Requiem perhaps equally worth hearing is that by Charles Villiers Stanford (1890s)
I've sang this piece and find it trully overwhelming and beautiful
You've SUNG this piece.
monumentale fantastico dvorak fra i miei compositori preferiti
People, what do you talking about.
This is deeply emotional work, one of the best sacred music ever composed in Europe and whole World.
Picture show a tragic death of young girl, may be refer to Dvorak child lost.
Please be more respect.
Well said. The analogical skills of the painter are neither here or there; although I think the painting is very gripping.
***** You can not compare Dvorak work to Brahms and Faure. Dvorak along with Mozart, make Requiem Mass with strong Catholic narration and more religious as personal message. Brahms and Faure requiem, it is a healing and more personal work (after death of parents). Dvorak was a Brahms pupil. And Brahms was a Robert Schumann pupil. But Dvorak music has more Schumann taste and it is not surprising for me. Together they were devotion to Jesus in Catholic Church.
***** Good is, that you like sacred music (openly, without prejudice)
But caution !!!! ...He, he.....It may lead you to believe in True God :))))
medieval sacred music is better, because this is western american tonality.
Uh? "American!" ?? America has nothing to do with tonality in music - you should get your facts straight before making such a statement.
Brilliant, deeply emotional piece of a great composer thank you for downloading 🇺🇸
It's amazing how in something as ceremonial as a requiem, Dvorak still infuses it with his style wholeheartedly.
Nicholas Nagawiecki It's amazing how your father infused your mother with his style and you're ceremonially a dumb dumb.
Dukie Doomsayer you're an idiot 😂 literally you had nothing to back up your stupid statement. Stop trolling lol
Dukie Doomsayer #rekt
+Nicholas Nagawiecki Yes. And all great master composers are able to do the same. It's a trademark of their greatness.
+Dukie Doomsayer What the hell are you talking about? His comment was correct. What an imbecile you are.
This is an amazing job from Dvorak! In the end of the prayer you really can't know if the absolution will be given or if the condamnation is coming. So dense!
the painting is morbidly beautiful
It perfectly symbolizes the waste of a young life
The beginning is absolutely amazing...how did I not get a chance to hear it before?!!
Painting is "Murder in the House" by Jakub Schikaneder.
So beautifull moving and sad music, wonderfull
People, why are you even talking about the picture? Pointless.
Dvorak's music is eternal.
It's Smetana, not Dvořák
excelsa en su estructura, impresionante la conducción del maestro Maris y los solistas un acierto de TH-cam.
El cuadro se llama "Homicidio en casa", 1889, de Jakub Schikaneder. / The picture is "Murder in the House", 1889. Jakub Schikaneder.
美しい演奏と合唱の凄さに驚いて居ます 素晴らしいです。
Many people today play modern music at weddings and funerals. Good for them.
I want this played at my funeral. People who disagree are not invited. Actually I won't give a fuck cause I'll be dead by then anyway
I want "Be Thou My Vision" and "Jerusalem" played at mine.
You still alive?
Good feeling by violent femmes at my funeral please
That's gonna be _slightly_ expensive and depressing. Don't recommend. Also that's way too long to play at a funeral.
People long ago had such wonderful music
It's a shame people have grown to love rap and hip hop instead of doing something as beautiful as this. It's good to know people still listen to this though. ^.^
Beautiful, haunting but most of all comforting music,
This is my first time hearing this music and I fall in love with it.
Люблю классику,спасибо.
Wonderful piece to sing! If you stand among 140 singers , a large orchestra in front of you, every cell of your body is shaken by physical and mental vibration.
BRAVO, thanks for posting,
Estas piezas a mi me sirven en tiempos de frío e incertidumbre. No me hacen sentir triste o algo así, pero sí me hacen vivir esos tiempos con tranquilidad. Los encuentro bellos, como una tormenta.
Absolutely stunning!
the raw sound of hammering my metal creations and.....Dvorak. PURE BEAUTY.
So I can hear some parallels between Mozarts Requiem and Dvoraks Requiem. The famous Theme Mozart uses in the first part of his requiem seems to have been very inspiring to dvorak.
How they add so much emotion into these pieces are just mind-blowing!
Thank you so much for this.
I have been listening to many requiems recently.
Such moving music.
This is exquisite
Not understanding but a handful of the words, between libretto and the instrumentation, the work captures depth from the human experience. 2020 just ended, full of chaos, angst, and anger. 2021 just began, full or chaos, angst, and anger. The music here does not shy away from the realities.
this is such a beautiful piece!
