A quite energetic music, very well written and balanced. The influence of Mahler is both obvios nd very filtrated.
Thanks for uploading all the Casella symphonies. This one is much more Neo-Classical than the earlier ones and reflective of the time it was written, 1939-1940. I also hear a subtle influence of Mahler in the use of trills and percussion. The end reminded me of the end of Mahler's Seventh Symphony and the brash use of trills in the woodwinds is a Mahler trademark. This is not said in criticism, just an observation. Frankly, I love all three of the Casella symphonies and thank you, KuhlauDilfeng, for including them.
On second hearing I find the Mahler influence very slight, this is the mature work of a unique and important composer. I love his stuff!
..simply beautiful..
En dépit de sa diversité stylistique, Alfredo Casella est avant tout un compositeur d'esthétique expressionniste, toujours proche du drame, de la profondeur, de l'angoisse et la vision tourmentée de la vie qui semble émaner de la métaphysique de l'homme comme de sa même nature profonde
What a great piece! Colourful and propulsive. The symphony reminds me a lot of Berthold Goldschmidt, especially of Der gewaltige Hahnrei.
Its also very similar to third honegger's symphony, and still an amazing work❤
A magnificent symphony!
At first I thought 'neo classical', but that thought went to the back of my mind after a while. 70s film music a little (Lee Holderidge). But there's so much origanality here. I love Casella's symphonys (especially the stunning 2nd), even the 1st which he dismissed.
The Casella's #2 has become my favorite Italian symphony. I too am getting to appreciate all of them as I never heard of this composer for decades.
The only piece I know by this composer is Pupazzetti, which appeared on a CD with Italian Futurist piano music.
Genial,siempre gracias!!!!!
It seems to me that Casella's Third Symphony is a more impersonal, less emotional work than his first two symphonies, and that their Mahlerian influence has been subdued (though still present) and supplanted with Casella's own distinctive harmonic and melodic content, and somewhat harder-edged orchestration. His mature, fully-developed style is evidenced in this impressive opus.
+ronald b woodall I much prefer this to the more late romantic tinged earlier ones, they're imo 'mushy' and this is clear, incisive, pithy -- and still highly lyric.
That's because here Casella is Casella, not Mahler.
He finally found the courage to express himself as he is.
He is a superb original composer of the 20th century.
I'm not so familiar with Mahler. That's why I will not mention him here. Neither that I hear Mahler nor that I don't hear him. I only know the 10th symphony - the unfinished. I like some parts of it but I don't know if they are the ones which were composed by Mahler or by the guy who finished the symphony.
You won't mention Mahler here? He is all you mentioned.😁
Gradirei che le pubblicazioni indicassero anche il direttore e l'orchestra che eseguono il brano
C'è scritto. Lavecchia con la Sinfonica di Roma
... sehr reife, ernste Symphonie des italienischen Komponisten: in Anlage, Aussage und Klangfarben ... nicht mehr so "hypertroph" wie seine beiden hörenwerten bedeutenden ersten Sinfonien ... schöne Interpretation der italienischen Künstler...

Casella was a cultural nationalist who sought cultural means to make fascist Italy strong. I do not hear much Mahler influence in this work, and that is consistent with Casella's cultural agenda in 1940: a strong, nationalist (and fascist) Italy. He certainly did not intend to represent Italian music as a variation of German music.
His Grand Daughter is also Asia Argento!
I think this is music and it has nothing to do with politic ... it's just a beautiful symphony of a great composer.
Great music is great music. Can be written by a fascist, a communist, a muslim, a christian, a gay or a straight... Who cares? Casella was a great composer, and beside that from where did you get that he compromised himself with fascism?
@@proarte4081 I agree with you.
la musica ,per fortuna , viaggia su binari lontani dalla politica
